Why are we Cleaning & Restoring?

In most states and cities across the country, news channels will do small updates on "Dirty Dining" highlighting various eateries that do not meet the minimum expectation for cleanliness for serving food. Trust me when I say that the lasting affects of making that list are very grim and almost a death knell for that business. Most don't recover from it...

To Many Carpet Cleaners

When Anna & I approached our business, we did not have a lot of interest in cleaning carpets.In fact, when I started researching what could be done with our equipment, I did not even look at how many carpet cleaners there were in our area. The reason being is that we had a different niche in mind with hard surface restorations and refinishing of those surfaces.(CHECK IT OUT)
The other reason is that carpet is just plain nasty and can only get so clean. If you have ever had your carpets cleaned, the cleaners will most likely tell you that your carpet is the largest filter in your house or business. And you know what..., it is very true! There is no way around it. The carpet accumulates and holds onto all the worlds filth. That is why they need to be cleaned constantly. The irony is that in spite of this, 75% of America's homes and business still have carpets! Carpet Cleaners around the world Thank You for having carpets...
So, the best carpet in our opinion is no carpet. But if you have it as most of us do, get it cleaned often. Yes, there are lots of carpet cleaners where we reside in Oregon, and I am sure a few of them will do as good a job as the wand & chemicals will allow. And since the world has so much carpet, we purchased in 2012 the best equipment available, to make sure that if we are going to clean carpet, it has the potential to be cleaner and more noticeable than any of our competitors out there. We do not want to be a "Me Too" company or a "we clean carpets too" company. We are striving for a Finish that we can be proud of....A Fast Finish

Driveway Cleaning $99 special

This was a test on the equipment using Heat and Pressure with no Emulsifiers (Chemicals) Cleaning concrete is a process if you want it done correctly.This is considered a topical clean without blasting the top surface off of it causing micro pitting of the surface.(Which is bad if you don't seal it afterwards) Most of the dirt and oils consist of tire and black mold that has settled in over the years. Concrete is very porous and mold can easily grow in all the cracks and crevices.http://www.fastfinishor.com








This  is what it looked like afterwards. This is considered the first step. You will still be able to see where the stain was in the later pics and how it penetrated deep into the pores.The majority  of the topical oils came up with heat and pressure. Now we will utilize natural enzymes
(bugs)to break it down even further.




Even at this stage we could seal it and make it look good. However, we have bigger plans for this concrete as it will be the sample for various acid stains, topcoats and sealers that we will offer our clients.
Stay Tuned...
