Fast Finish short film "Grime Busters"
Just having some fun in Salem Oregon making an iMovie for cleaning hard surfaces. This is one of the many patent tools we utilize to give your floor that better than new look. Often times after a floor has been put into place by a contractor it is only wiped down or mopped with the original factory finish. This leaves at best a box store finish and a layer of haze that mopping and regular cleaning does not address. We take that factory haze away. Newly installed floors are not really clean, they are just new. We service new floors and seal them before they get use. Do not forget this important step if you are moving into a new home. It is overlooked 99% of the time.

Pet & Smoker Odors in the Home you want to sell?
HOME ODORS
REVIEWS YOU CAN TRUST CLICK HERE about Fast Finish Services
Home buyers don't want houses that stink. Sellers must identify and remove odors that make prospective purchasers hold their noses and run for the exits.
A buyer's market is a tough challenge for sellers, says Patti Ketcham, owner of Ketcham Realty Group in Tallahassee, Fla.
"If you're selling," she says, "your house has to look a little better, smell a little better and be priced a little better than the other houses the buyer will look at that same day."
Unfortunately, it's not always easy for sellers to identify familiar smells that might be problematic, says Neeraj Gupta, director of product research and development at Service Master Clean, which performs major cleanups and post-disaster restorations of residential and commercial properties.
"There is no 'odor meter,'" Gupta says. "People get used to the odor of their house and may not notice that something is not pleasant."
Outside sniffers
The best way to find out whether a house smells OK is to "ask someone who doesn't live there to come inside and give an opinion," Gupta says.
The obvious "someone" would be the real estate broker hired to sell the home. But not all brokers will point out that a house smells bad, even if they're willing to offer other helpful suggestions.
Ketcham, for one, says she's not outspoken about odor issues. Instead, she offers to pass along any unfiltered "brutal truth" comments she hears from her colleagues who bring buyers to see the property. That way, the message gets delivered with less risk to her cordial relationship with the sellers.
"I will never be the kind that will come out and tell you that your house smells like cat litter or mothballs," she says. "I would rip my tongue out first."
NOTE: This is very common practice. They almost never tell you anything so that the homeowner is not offended.
Pet odors
The two most common sources of difficult and offensive odors are pets and cigarettes; neither of which, Gupta says, is easy to remediate.The point might seem obvious, but the first line of defense in any smelly situation is to remove the source of the problem, even if that means a beloved pet must board elsewhere for a while.
"It's kind of cruel," Gupta says, "but if the pet is in the house, you're introducing new odor every day. For people who have pets, over time, it's a losing battle to get rid of the odor."
Cat urine, among the worst of the bad odors, can seep into carpet fibers, carpet padding, concrete and wood floors, upholstery fabrics, and furniture cushions and pillows.
"Oftentimes," he says, "you have to remove the carpet, remove the pad and seal the floor, and then replace the carpet and the pad."
Cleaning the carpet might help. But Gupta warns that any humidity will raise the odor from the padding or floor beneath.
No smoking
Cigarette smoke can cling to furnishings, drapes and other window coverings and work its way inside walls. Some topically applied solutions can help to reduce the stench, but an ozone generator, or air scrubber should be more effective, Gupta says. These approaches are "very effective in absorbing odors," he says, though there is no guarantee that an odor can be eliminated completely.One more tip: If someone suffers a long illness or dies in a home, a good airing may be adequate to remove any odors. In the case of a violent death, however, professionals who handle what's known as "trauma cleanup" should be called to do the job. The cost could be $1,000 or more depending on the type of remediation and the square footage.
"It's not like buying glass cleaner in a store and cleaning your windows," Gupta says. "If you have that type of situation, it's probably best to call a professional. It may be traumatic for you to do it yourself."

Woodburn Mobile Power washing , pressure washing,Steam cleaning services
Regular pressure washers available to the public simply cannot get the job done like the large commercial power washing units for professional contractors. In the hands of a professional contractor our Hot/cold pressure washers deliver the exact amount of pressure to remove the moss/ mold/ gum and stains that are often present on Woodburn, Oregon business parks. We are licensed to clean the concrete the right way. Do not hire that low cost friend or company to come out with his consumer grade equipment and blast your sidewalks. This can lead to unexpected damages that can cost you more money than if it was done right the first time. We even employ a vacuum evacuation system to protect sensitive storm drains where needed and required by law. We also utilize PIG drain Inserts to capture debris, sediment and oils that are swept into storm drains. These inserts allow us to comply with EPA regulations regarding run off and allows us to dispose of the sediment properly.
If you are a business and responsible for the maintenance of the sidewalks etc...or just want your business to look presentable for your customer/ clients. Give Fast Finish a call and set up a free consultation regarding your project needs. We are completely mobile and work around business hours schedule. We are the most cost effective, visual, business improvement service around. You can see the difference when we are finished!

Salem Mobile Interior Cleaning for car,boat, Rv, and home.
Odor and Stain Removal mad mobile for Salem, Dallas, Independence, Monmouth residents.
We have a great niche and I am sure other companies will borrow from our book of services because it is popular and very effective. The bottom line is that we have secured some great business with our mobility and professional stain and odor removal equipment. All we need is a place to plug in (for now) We will add a mobile generator later to make our service even more complete for those more rural areas. Here we clean a senior center lead vehicle that is used to cart patients around to various places. Client got a little car sick and we came to the rescue to get live enzymes into the upholstery to do the work of odor abatement. The we did a professional fogging through the entire air system to give it a better than new smell. And just in time as the summer heat starts o kick in that would make the car in operable.
