Always exciting to get a flurry of calls from a particular area of town… maybe it is once our vans start being seen it is a good reminder for folks?  If you live in the Chena Pump, Chena Ridge, Roland Road, Chena Hills, Hidden Drive, Shypoke, etc areas…. You know what I mean!  Hard to miss the subtle “45Clean” vans.  Keep calling, we need to hone our winter driving skills early this year and there is very few places that offer the challenges your neighborhoods can :-).  THANK YOU!

I’m thinking that our company with multiple vans may have just really missed out not offering to test tires for manufacturers?  Wooooohooooo!  that could be my next big business move!  I do go through some tires!

Busy few days in a chilly winter wonderland :-)….

Jobs this last few days before thanksgiving have had us covering most of the borough. Nice to get out and refresh your memory with a few of the neat spots around town that you haven’t been to in a while… One really does forget how large and diverse this little dot in the middle of the state is!

Also you forget just how bad gas mileage gets when it’s this cold…. 🙁 …

Yep, the Fairbanks & North Pole area do have several ‘hidden’ beauty’s! Like today, some with their own road even!

Today started with thousands of square feet of downtown Fairbanks commercial carpet to University West 2 & 3 bedroom LARGE rentals with pet damage repairs to a ‘secret’ hideaway mountaintop mansion!!!!!

It is hard to get bored!

Another blustery winter day with another warm cozy place to go work… This afternoons carpet job had previously been professionally cleaned and a great way to end the day’s work! Have a few jobs this week where we get to witness first hand how well the Trinity Renewal Systems can truly make a carpet as close to new again as possible…. Without harm to the fiber. Even making an obvious difference to those carpets just cleaned days ago.

Now to try and add a video :-)…. :

Man, this old carpet cleaner is really really stretching out with this computer stuff, does keep my “mind alive” to say the least :-).  It worked!!!

Some days you just have “pinch yourself” when you realize how great the day is scheduled to be.

It is always fun for a fabric guy to work with materials that have scheduled care.  Absolute proof that what we learn in all the classes is true: proper care of fabric floor/furniture coverings virtually eliminate “wear” and the coverings will last virtually forever in great condition.  Today it was really neat to witness over the job how much softer/brighter the fabrics were (over 8 hours allowed me the time to fully dry almost all the furniture cleaned/protected).

Of course, the first group of 20 chairs helped me to discover muscles in my back that I didn’t remember existing, the second group of 20 chairs confirmed the location of those muscles, the third group of twenty chairs allowed me to have pinpoint accuracy and long “conversations” with each muscle fiber…. then the last 3 chairs took the longest to clean: Had to hold my phone in one hand in case I needed to dial 911.. :-).

It is tough that experience always has the side effect of becoming OLDER … just think, what if I could have produced this quality when I was 30 years younger????  :-).

In the winter, I share a shop with an “ice road trucker” that runs three semi’s to Prudoe Bay and beyond several times per week,… This is a picture from yesterday where they had to ‘carve’ through 13′ of fresh snow …

I love carpet cleaning those nice warm places!

Damaged carpet can often be repaired for a tiny fraction of the cost of replacement.  Areas damaged by pets, dyes that are ‘set’ from spills, burns in the carpet, etc are permanent, however, a razor and reasonably matching carpet can solve even the worst “permanent” problems.

If you have to be stuck in a conference room, what a great way to suffer….  SUPER nice coffee maker just out of sight as well…

The beginning process of adding reducing agents to dyes in the carpet and warming up the steamer to help ‘open’ the dye sites

Sample of the slow transfer process to remove foreign dyes from the carpet without removing carpet color… reducing agents, gentle agitation, steam, blot, repeat, repeat, repeat…. try to keep your mind off the cupcakes still on the table behind you….

The public doesn’t even yet have access to this very very nice medical facility… talk about a cupcake ‘bummer’ :-).

If you moved to a rental property and didn’t find absolutely awesome looking-feeling carpet… You have been slighted by your rental agent! :-). Call them and see if there is still time to start your lease with great carpet by calling us! …. Of course by asking nicely….

Can life get better? Trinity “Renewing” carpets and we get paid to do it!

Really enjoyable to do a rental ‘turnover’ when you can absolutely amaze both the residents and the landlord/property manager.

Wow! Did we ever make a difference in this home! Interior pictures before/after weren’t taken with sufficient light, but cleaning the carpet and two staircases was like painting an in finished wall. VERY AWESOME.

A lot of the traffic areas had been heavily soiled AND abraded (scratched). Now there is no way to repair damage to fiber from a abrading, but, as in this case, using “Scotchgard-like” protectors can often make them fully disappear…

Jobs like this always help the old carpet cleaners self-esteem. :-).
