Why truck-mounted

The machine stays in the van.
The dirt leaves with it.

Most people call it steam cleaning. The trade calls it hot water extraction. Either way, here’s what happens between our van and your floor.

Heater Recovery
Water temp 210°F
Pressure 1,000 PSI
Water recovered 100%

  1. On the truck

    Heat

    Fresh water runs through a heater on the van and comes out around 200°F. Hot water breaks down kitchen grease, body oils and sugary spills that cold mop water only smears around.

  2. Down the hose

    Pressure

    The truck pushes that water to the floor at up to 1,000 PSI on tile and concrete. On LVP, vinyl and linoleum we turn it way down. Same machine, different floor, different setting.

  3. Under the hood

    Spin and rinse

    A spinning surface tool sprays the floor from inside an enclosed hood. Every grout line gets hit from several angles, and nothing splashes onto your cabinets, baseboards or walls.

  4. Back to the truck

    Recover

    The same hood vacuums the water up the instant it hits the floor. Dirty water rides back to a tank in the van and leaves with us. No mop bucket, no film, nothing poured down your sink.

Every floor is different

Five kinds of floor.
Five different settings.

Tile & Grout

Grout is porous. Every mop pass pushes a little more dirty water into it, which is why light gray grout slowly turns brown. We rinse it out under pressure and vacuum it up.

Heat

Pressure
Up to 1,000 PSI
Moisture

How we clean it

  • Pre-spray that loosens grease and soap scum
  • Hand-brushing on the worst grout lines
  • High-pressure hot rinse under an enclosed spinning tool
  • Extraction that pulls water and soil straight back to the truck

Good for

Kitchens, bathrooms, mudrooms, entryways and tiled walls.

Between visits

Sweep, then damp-mop with warm water or a pH-neutral cleaner. Skip vinegar and bleach on grout. Over time they eat at it.

Luxury Vinyl Plank

LVP looks like wood, but it’s a wear layer over a printed film. Too much heat or water at the seams is the fastest way to ruin it, so this is our gentlest setting.

What hot water extraction does for LVP

  • Gets into the grain

    Textured LVP is embossed to feel like real wood. Dirt packs into that texture and a flat mop glides right over it. A warm rinse under the surface tool reaches in and pulls it out.

  • Takes off shine-product film

    Mop-on shine products build up into a cloudy layer that holds dirt. An LVP-safe cleaner breaks it down and extraction lifts it out, so the floor’s real finish shows again.

  • Cleans the seams

    Grime settles in the bevels between planks until they look like dark lines. We clean the edges without leaving water sitting in the joints.

  • Protects the wear layer

    Grit is what scratches LVP. Getting it out of the texture, along with the film that traps it, helps the clear top layer last longer.

How we clean it

  • Dry soil removal first, so grit doesn’t scratch the wear layer
  • Cleaners made for LVP and LVT
  • Breaks down built-up “shine” products and residue
  • Low-pressure rinse with no standing water at the seams

How often

Once a year. More often with kids, pets, or after construction or a big spill.

Between visits

Dust-mop with microfiber and use a damp (not wet) mop. Avoid steam mops and shine products. They leave a dull film that grabs dirt.

Indoor Concrete

Finished basements, garages, workshops and polished concrete in homes and storefronts. Concrete hides dirt in its texture until the whole floor just looks gray.

Why a mop can’t keep up with concrete

Mopping

  • Dirty water runs into the pores and low spots, then dries there as a gray film.
  • Cool mop water slides right over oil drips and tire marks.
  • Rough concrete chews up mop heads and leaves lint in the texture.
  • Leftover soap dulls the sealer and makes the floor slick.

Hot water extraction

  • Water around 200°F breaks oil and grease loose.
  • Pressure reaches down into pores, hairline cracks and saw-cut joints.
  • Vacuum recovery pulls the dirt out of the floor instead of spreading it.
  • Nothing left behind, so sealed and polished concrete looks the way it should.

You’ll see it in the color. Concrete that looked one flat gray usually comes up a shade or two lighter, with its texture showing again.

How we clean it

  • We check if it’s sealed, painted, stained or polished first
  • Degreaser on oil drips and tire marks
  • Hot, high-pressure rinse with the surface tool
  • Full extraction, with no puddles left in the low spots

Good for

Basements, garages, shops, studios and storefront floors.

Between visits

Dust-mop to keep grit from wearing down the sealer. Wipe oil and fluid drips the same day. They soak in fast.

VCT, quarry tile & more

Commercial Floors

Restaurants, churches, offices and shops. Mostly VCT, quarry tile, ceramic and sealed concrete, and all of it high traffic. We set the machine to each surface in the building.

How we clean it

  • A walkthrough to identify every floor type in the building
  • Degreasing for kitchen quarry tile and grout
  • We ask about wax and finish coats first, so we don’t strip what you want to keep
  • After-hours and weekend scheduling

Good for

Restaurant kitchens, fellowship halls, lobbies, restrooms and break rooms.

Between visits

Ask us about recurring visits: monthly, quarterly or twice a year, planned around your busy season.

Linoleum & sheet vinyl

Linoleum & Sheet Vinyl

Kitchens, laundry rooms, rentals and older homes. These floors are tougher than they look, but they don’t like harsh chemicals or water sitting in the seams.

Heat

Pressure
Low
Moisture
Minimal

How we clean it

  • We tell real linoleum from vinyl, since it needs a gentler cleaner
  • Pre-spray that lifts grime out of textured surfaces
  • Low-pressure warm rinse, kept away from seams and edges
  • Brings back the pattern hiding under the yellow haze

Good for

Kitchens, laundry rooms, rental turnovers and move-out cleans.

Between visits

Damp-mop with a pH-neutral cleaner and put felt pads under chair legs. Wipe spills before they sit.

Steam vs. mop

A mop moves dirt around.
We take it with us.

Mopping isn’t wrong. It’s just the reason grout gets darker every year. Here’s the difference.

Mop and bucket compared with truck-mounted steam cleaning
Mop & bucket Truck-mounted steam
Water Gets dirtier with every pass Fresh and around 200°F the whole time
Grout Dirty water settles into the low lines Rinsed under pressure, vacuumed up
Residue Soap film that attracts new dirt Rinsed and extracted. Nothing left behind
Dirty water Goes down your sink Goes into our tank and out the door
Noise inside Quiet Quiet too. The machine runs in the van

  • Heat that cuts grease

    Water around 200°F breaks down grease, body oils and sticky spills, and knocks back bacteria a lukewarm mop just spreads.

  • No sticky film

    Everything we put down, we take back up. With nothing left to grab new dirt, floors stay clean longer.

  • Grout color comes back

    Most grout comes up dramatically lighter, often close to the color it was installed. You’ll see the line.

  • Less slippery

    Built-up grease and cleaner residue make floors slick. Taking them off helps everyone from toddlers to grandparents.

  • Done in one visit

    Most homes are finished in a single visit. Hard floors are usually dry to the touch within about an hour.

  • Engine stays outside

    Only the hoses come in. There’s no motor roaring in your living room and no exhaust in the house.

Good to know

questions.

Still wondering about something? Call (706) 491-7530. You’ll get a straight answer.

Is it really steam cleaning?

The trade term is hot water extraction. Our truck-mounted unit heats water to around 200°F. It hits the floor as hot water and vapor and is vacuumed straight back up. Most people call that steam cleaning, and we’re happy to.

Is it safe for luxury vinyl plank?

Yes, with the right settings. LVP gets low pressure, controlled heat, minimal moisture and cleaners made for LVP and LVT. We never flood the seams.

Will my grout look brand new?

Most grout comes back dramatically lighter. Grout stained deep by years of spills or the wrong cleaners may not return to its exact original color. If we think that’s the case, we’ll tell you during the walkthrough, not after.

How soon can I walk on the floor?

Tile, concrete and vinyl floors are usually dry to the touch within about an hour, often sooner with good airflow.

Do I need to move furniture?

No. We clean around any furniture left in the room. Please have pets clear from the areas we’re cleaning.

Do you need anything from my house?

Usually just access to an outside water spigot. The machine runs off the van, so we don’t need your electricity, and the dirty water leaves with us.

What does it cost?

It depends on square footage, the type of floor and its condition. Call (706) 491-7530 for a free estimate over the phone, or build an estimate online.
