Learn How to Disinfect Your Home from Coronavirus
As COVID-19 continues to spread across the country, it is more important than ever to understand how to properly clean your home and personal spaces. Most residential and commercial end users, homeowners and even cleaning services are not fully aware of how to use a disinfectant correctly. Don’t take any chances in your home and put your loved ones at risk. Let Clean Freaks help you every step of the way and we can all safely get through this pandemic together.
This year, spring cleaning requires the additional step of ensuring your home is free from viruses. In order to do so, we suggest using a strong disinfectant that contains quats, which are potent chemicals designed to kill germs. Here are some important reminders when it comes to disinfecting your home from COVID-19:
Label Instructions: Labels feature detailed instructions for safe and effective use of the cleaning product, including the precautions you should take when applying the product, such as wearing disposable gloves to protect your skin or ensuring you have good ventilation while the product is in use. Be sure to discard any protective equipment after each use.
Hard Surfaces: To truly disinfect high-touch surfaces such as door handles and countertops, cleaning solutions must be applied and left on for at least 10 minutes and wiped dry. Solution can even be left on to dry on its own. Prior to applying a disinfectant, be sure to clean dirty surfaces with a solution of detergent or soap and water.
Soft Surfaces: For soft surfaces such as carpeted floors or drapes, remove any visible contaminates and apply a cleaner that is appropriate for these types of surfaces. If items can be laundered, wash them on the warmest setting and dry them completely.

The Importance of Professional Mattress Cleaning in Ottawa
A mattress is one of the most essential elements of your bedroom. It provides a safe and comfortable place to rest and recharge for the coming day, but it can also impact your health if it is not properly taken care of. Since it’s used daily, you need to make sure your mattress is clean. That’s where we come in! At Clean Freaks, our professional mattress cleaning crew in Ottawa has the resources and experience that is necessary to improve the overall hygiene of your mattress in a swift and successful manner.
Benefits of Mattress Cleaning in Ottawa by Professionals
When it comes to cleaning a mattress, your best option is to hire a professional. Not only will you save time and energy but attempting a DIY mattress cleaning will not always guarantee results. Here are a few more advantages of hiring a mattress cleaning service rather than doing it yourself:
Ensures a Deep Clean: Often times, the dirtiest parts of your mattress are below the surface where a standard vacuum is less efficient at eliminating dirt and dust. A professional mattress cleaning service ensures the complete removal of debris thanks to the use of sophisticated equipment.
Extends Mattress Lifespan: Cleaning your own mattress may cause unnecessary wear and tear, greatly reducing its lifespan. Professionals understand mattress materials and follow proper methods that are best suited to clean it.
Convenient Services: If you are occupied with other cleaning tasks or life obligations, it is far more convenient to leave your mattress cleaning to the professionals.
Avoid Equipment Purchase Costs: Hiring a professional will help you avoid buying the costly equipment that is necessary for cleaning your mattress properly.
Clean Freaks is well-known in Ottawa and the surrounding area for providing effective and affordable mattress cleaning services. Using quality cleaning solutions and equipment, we can ensure you drift off to a peaceful sleep on a clean and comfortable mattress.

What are the benefits Steam Cleaning?
If you are looking for a better alternative to traditional carpet cleaners, steam cleaning may be right for you.
Steam cleaning is a process that combines water with intense heat to lift up and eliminate dirt from your carpets. It is one of the best deep-cleaning methods as it goes beyond the surface to remove years of debris that has settled into your carpet.
Here are a few more benefits of steam cleaning:
Eco-friendly
Simple and convenient
Works to eliminate most stains and goes even further to eliminate allergens and pests
It is a safer and healthier choice since it doesn’t rely on chemicals to clean
Homeowners can expect pristine results after a steam clean

The Most Common Mistakes People Make When Removing Carpet Stains
Especially with items like wine or tomato sauce, using the wrong techniques to remove stains can make the problem worse. Here are some of the most common stain-removal mistakes:
Stopping at the surface: A lot of people instinctively attack stains with a brush or paper towel. They rub away at the carpet until the stain seems as though it is mostly gone, and let it dry. What is actually happening here is that the stain is being spread further over the carpet and a lot of particulates are being pushed deeper and deeper into the fibres. Not only does this mean the stain will be harder to properly remove, it also leaves behind organic particles which can start to smell over time.
Using the wrong products: Proper stain removal is as much about chemistry as it is about technique. You can throw as much soap, water or vinegar at a stain as you want, but if you do not have the right chemistry, it is never fully coming out. Using everyday cleaning products that you may find at your local hardware store is not a good idea either. When done incorrectly, these can make the stain harder and more expensive to remove.
Not hiring professionals: There is no better way to permanently ruin a carpet than trying to clean a stain yourself. By hiring professionals like us, you bring experience with the best techniques and chemicals for the job. We use our own special two-part cleaning product which triggers chemical oxidization that cleans deeply and removes pigments from wine or other colourful stains.
Clean Freaks is a locally-owned and operated company with extensive experience and expertise in stain removal. If you live in the Ottawa area and need carpet stain removal, we are the ones to call!

Eco-Friendly Cleaning Tips
Living an eco-friendly life is not hard, if you know how. When buying products or cleaning up a mess, there are some simple actions you can take to live a cleaner, healthier, environmentally conscious lifestyle.
Here are our top 10 tips to guide you:
1. Do some research:
There are a ton of online resources out there to help you find affordable cleaning products which do not rely on nasty, environmentally harmful chemicals to get the job done.
2. Read the labels:
When shopping, look for official health and environmental certifications or other information which explicitly states the benefits of a product.
3. Vinegar and hydrogen peroxide are your friends:
For jobs like cleaning counters, mild stain removal and other small messes, vinegar or hydrogen peroxide solutions are all you really need.
4. Get some reusable wipes:
If you have a few cloths or towels which you don’t mind getting dirty, you can cycle through them when cleaning and then just throw them in the washing machine as needed. They’re less wasteful and will save you money in the long run.
5. Only wash clothes and dishes if you have a full load:
Washing machines use up a lot of water and energy, so waiting until you know you have enough dishes or clothes to fill a load is a great way to save across the board.
6. Avoid artificial scents:
These are not only potentially harmful to your health, but artificial scents can also carry toxins into the water supply which pollute and harm wildlife.
7. Always recycle:
A lot of brands now package their cleaning products in 100 percent recyclable or even compostable packaging, which will help reduce your garbage output.
8. Use natural body products:
Artificial body products send chemicals right down the drain where they can leach toxins into the environment. Natural products are not only eco-friendly, but also better for your body.
9. Unclog your drain the old-fashioned way:
Drain unclogging chemicals, however effective, are harsh on the environment. Instead, try cola or vinegar and baking soda.
10. If you do have to use hard chemicals, do it right:
If you must use chemicals, open up windows to air out nasty fumes or keep away from the area in question for a while. If you have any waste from cleaning, compost or recycle it if you can and try to avoid washing chemical-filled water down the drain. Most of all, try to use these chemicals as infrequently as possible.

Why You Should Hire A Professional Steam Cleaner
Tumblr media
We live in a DIY culture that encourages us to build, maintain, and repair on our own without the help of paid professionals. The DIY movement promotes independence and criticizes purchasing products or services. We agree that being self-sufficient is an admirable goal! But for some projects, like carpet cleaning, hiring a professional will get you a high return on your investment.
Insights from Clean Freaks Ottawa – What is steam cleaning?
Steam cleaning applies boiling vaporized water that contains detergent or cleanser to your carpeting. A professional steam cleaner uses equipment that looks like a vacuum cleaner for both, the application of moisture and removal of the carpet’s dirt and debris.
How does steam cleaning work?
The steam cleaning process relies on pressurized water to loosen dirt from carpet fibers. Importantly, the hot temperature of the water (between 65° and 90°C) also kills dust mites and other allergens. The vapor loosens dirt and removes pollutants.
Do steam cleaners kill bacteria?
Yes, the steam cleaning pressure and temperatures will effectively eliminate bacteria. More specifically, steam cleaning your carpeting removes E. coli, staph, viruses, salmonella and other micro-organisms.
Benefits of steam cleaning
Steam cleaning is an affordable and efficient method for cleaning and sanitizing your carpets. Professional systems are eco-friendly, using minimal amounts of water to produce the high-pressure, high-heat water vapor. Many companies, including Clean Freaks, have biodegradable, non-toxic cleansers available, too.
Benefits of steam cleaning carpets
In addition to killing bacteria and removing dirt, a professional steam cleaner removes contaminants like pet dander and volatile organic compounds like cigarette smoke. These small and silent pollutants can affect the air quality in your house and shorten the life of your carpeting. Steam cleaning refreshes and renews your carpets and your home.
Do steam cleaners kill mold?
Yes! Studies show that deep steam cleaning is an effective method for removing mold from carpeting.
Is it worth getting carpets professionally cleaned?
When you hire professional carpet cleaners, you’ll benefit from their knowledge and experience. They’ll recommend the best approach for your carpet type and brand as well as the right products to address your specific concerns (or stains). A professional will protect your carpeting from the unexpected damage that could happen with a DIY approach.
Why carpet cleaning is important
Deep cleaning is essential to extending the life of your carpeting. It’s also a proven method for removing dirt, debris, bacteria, and the smells associated with dirt from your carpets. Carpet cleaning improves the healthiness and comfort of your home.

Dry Carpet Cleaning vs. Steam Cleaning
Tumblr media
The carpeting in your home provides comfortable flooring for you and your family. Carpets also add color and texture to the interior appearance of your home. Maintaining the quality of your carpets with regular cleaning will extend the lifespan and deliver several essential benefits to your home.
What You Need to Know
Clean carpets are healthier for you and your family. Carpet cleaning removes bacteria, dust mites, and other allergens that regular vacuuming can’t pick up.
The air in your home is fresher with clean carpets. Dust and dirt on carpeting will slow airflow through a house, particularly along the walls where air circulation is most important. Carpet cleaning makes your home smell clean and less stuffy.
Cleaning also improves the look and feel of your carpet. Dirt and dust can flatten carpet fibers, making them rougher, and look worn.
You have several options for keeping your carpets clean. The most popular methods are dry cleaning and steam cleaning. We’re often asked about both approaches and have compiled a few insights to help you make an informed decision. Originally Published on Clean Freaks Carpet Cleaning
