I've lived in Naples for more than five years. The best thing about Naples is The Weather.............in February and October!! The fantastic business opportunities if you're willing to really work hard, not just talk about working hard. Naples is a great place for Service businesses Networking Dining out

If it's really dull, you can get it sanded by an expert in granite refinishing. We use a lot of Simple Green in my cleaning business. It is non-toxic and works on almost any surface. good luck
We like Simple Green. Dilute it and it will smell great and should not be slippery. If it is, just use a bit less product next time you mop it. good luck
I would use the least amount of product as possible! Get a buffer swifter( they sell them at WalMart) and that will remove dirt and make them shine up. There's a new product out now....it starts with a B, it's escaped me, but I see it at the small hardware stores and just saw it at Walmart recently. It's expense, but some companies swear by it. I WOULD skip the Orange Glow. Murphys is great but just a little..... good luck
I've put my down comforter in the washer and it's been fine..... You need a large capacity washer/dryer however, so you might be better off taking it to be laundered or the laundry mat. Just make sure you Really dry it before you put the duvet back on. good luck
Air, Air Air, and dry air helps prevent mold. Inside humidity can be cured by running your a/c. It pulls moisture out of the air. Even if it's cool out and humid, you need to get rid of that moisture. Once you get mold, we like Clorox Cleanup to get rid of the mold. It doesn't get that funky bleach smell after you're done. Just clean and sanitized. Good luck!
We love to use Clorox Cleanup for Mold remover in my cleaning business. You should keep your fan on for 20 minutes after you shower, that will help get rid of some of the moisture. good luck! [img][/img]
I like Simple Green. You can purchase it at the hardware store. I won't hurt the knotty pine. Is it cigarette smoke or fire smoke damage? Once it's cleaned off, you can rent an oxidizer from a machine rental store, we have Taylor Rental down here, and that will remove the smell. If it's painted wood, re-paint after you wash..... good luck
Exposure to oxygen causes silver to tarnish. Tarn-X should sparkle it up, not make it worse. So you think it might not be silver? That was my first reaction..... Try a milder Silver polish, you can by them at any hardware store and see if that helps. good luck
If the tenants are in there it will be harder for you to do the work. As a tenant, they might just start fixing it themselves as they don't want to wait, but then might feel they should be reimbursed for the work they did. good luck! Taresa@CleanNaples
I know in Florida some of my homeowners schedule a monthly cleaning service as part of their rent. That way they have a set of eyes on the property. We become their eyes and ears and can let them know if things look like they're getting out of control. We are there to clean of course, but to inspect as well while we do it. It gives the homeowners peace of mind. Another way is to schedule a monthly a/c filter change by the owner or their representative. Good luck! ps. Check on the laws in your state for withholding deposits. You can typically only withhold deposit for damage, NOT normal wear and tear of your property.
you might be able to put it in a commercial size washing machine. If not we've used Simple Green to clean canvas at CleanNaples. Spray it on and scrub it with a deck brush then just hose it off. For really tough stains, let it sit for a bit.... Good luck! Taresa
We use Soft Scrub or the magic eraser bars. I like them both. Just don't rub too hard good luck
I wish you were in Naples, Fl I would have the perfect person for you. One of my affiliates does ultraviolet mattress cleaning I've attached her email, she may be able to refer you to someone in your area. Her name is Linda. It is completly affordable as well. Good luck lhansen@citymattress.com
I hear the "dry" cleaning methods are good. Not the chemical based wet methods. I bet if you google organic carpet cleaning companies you might come up with something as well. good luck
I use Shaklee products in my cleaning service at CleanNaples. I love the product, they are super concentrated and cheap, and safe....I'll attach a link to check out their products.
Happy Cleaning

I'm not sure about background checks as they are costly....but ALL cleaning services you have in your home should be insured against damage or injury, bonded for theft, and workman's comp for personal injury sustained on your property. I would not hire a non licensed cleaner. I know it's tempting because their cost's are lower, but you won't be covered if damages occur. If something gets broken we typically replace the value of it or the item itself at my cleaning company CleanNaples. It doesn't happen often, but it does happen. If there is an item that is an heirloom and you love, then let the cleaners know ahead of time to not touch it, you'll clean it yourself etc. I always ask when I do my consultations if there is anything that is irreplaceable and then I let the homeowner know we won't touch it.... Good luck!
You ruin them!
You can use leather cleaner that you pick up at the hardware store. Just put on a towel and scrub. White is hard to keep clean, but the wipes will help. It won't hurt it. We use Weidmans brand in my company CleanNaples... good luck!
