Before we arrive

Thanks again for selecting JoeCleans to clean your surroundings – you’ll feel refreshed! Below are some tips on what to expect and how to prepare for our visit. 

We will arrive in a well-marked van with cleaning logos on it. The senior technician will either be Joe or Christopher 

Prior to Carpet Cleaning… 

Kindly tidy up the areas, removing magazine racks, plant stands, dining room chairs, items from end tables etc., whatever you can. We will move the larger furniture for you, no need to have a sofa clogging up your kitchen for the event. (We don’t move grandfather clocks, pianos, electronics, triple dressers etc.) We will leave tabs or blocks under the legs of pieces we move so that moisture won’t damage your furnishings or furniture stain transfers to carpets. The carpets will remain damp for a few short hours after completion and , although it is okay to walk on them right away with clean house shoes or slippers (no muddy boots after gardening), there is a slip hazard when walking OFF the carpet onto a hard surface floor. Travel cautiously and flat-footed and all should be well (no running!). We recommend using overhead paddle fans or household fans which we are happy to set up for you to expedite drying. Resume vacuuming and full activities the following day. Enjoy! 

Prior to Furniture Cleaning… 

Kindly tidy up the surrounding areas, removing items off all side tables or coffee tables where applicable. We use drop cloths when the floor beneath is not concurrently being cleaned. We typically stack loose cushions teepee style to maximize airflow and expedite drying. We recommend using overhead paddle fans or household fans which we are happy to set up for you to expedite drying. Most fabrics are dry within minutes, and you may return the pillows to watch an evening television program, yet we recommend leaving them teepee’d overnight for ideal drying. 

Prior to Tile & Grout Cleaning… 

Kindly tidy up the areas, remove small furniture, dining room chairs, items from pieces you wish for us to move, whatever you can. Remember to empty closet floors which may be tiled as well. We will apply a cleaner to the flooring, manually scrub as needed, then use a high-pressure wash inside a vacuum bell to extract all the loosened soil. The tile floors are dried upon completion and normal activities can be resumed immediately.
