“Dean of Clean” meets the “Rug Chick” in Phoenix

Hi everyone, I just got back from one of my quarterly meetings in Phoenix, AZ with the Piranha Platinum Plus group. We are the top 100 cleaning companies in the country (and a few from Canada!) who meet regularly to exchange ideas and information, as well as set goals and lay out strategies for our continued success. Here I am with Lisa Wagner, owner of K. Blatchford’s Oriental Rug Cleaning in San Diego. Lisa has been cleaning rugs since she was a child, and is also known in the industry as “The Rug Chick”. If you click on the link for Rug Chick Blog, you can read some of her stories and information about rug cleaning!

Thanks Lisa for all your help and friendship over the years…and I’ll see you in May!

Prevent Water Damage - Check now for Ice Dams on your roof!

Life is funny. It doesn’t matter that I’m the Dean of Clean, my roof leaks like anyone else’s when ice builds up at the edge! This was brought to my attention the other night when a drip of water fell on my head while I was reading, and I’ve spent the last few days removing the ice dam, removing part of my ceiling, and drying the wall and ceiling cavity to prevent mold growth in the wet materials, and keep my house sound and secure!

So, now that the snow has fallen, check your roof and make sure you don’t have an ice dam built up at a corner or edge - if so, you should either remove it yourself, or hire someone like Chip Huntoon (946-8041) to do it for you. This will prevent water damage from melting snow backing up under the metal or shingles and working its way down into your attic and walls and flooding your carpet!

But if you feel water dripping on your head, or something goes “squish” under your feet on the way to the bathroom in the mornin, give me a call at 385-8444 and I’ll get your flooded house or water-damaged building cleaned up and dried out right away. We’ll work with you and your insurance company to get your home dry and healthy, and your life back to normal fast,like nothing happened! Want to know more?
