Wood floors are a huge investment for your home. That’s why it matters what you clean them with on a regular basis so you don’t have to have them refinished to regain the gloss look. We use a Miele vacuum to vacuum all of our wood floors rather than a broom. Sweeping your floors can and will cause damage. Our Miele vacuums have an attachment especially made for wood floors. We also use a non chemical cleaner that not only cleans the floors but keeps the floors shiny without adding a coat of gloss. Most people think that they need to constantly use a cleaner that has an added gloss finish to keep the floors shiny. This type of cleaner does more harm than good in the long run. It is kind of like clear nail polish. It makes your nails look shiny but if you keep re applying the nail polish coat after coat you will end up with a heavy build up on your nails and it will cause damage. With wood floors if you use a cleaner that has an added gloss it will also build up over time and you will have to call a professional to remove all of the cleaner you applied. Let the ladies of Penny’s Personal Touch Cleaning Services take care of your wood flooring the professional way.

Did you walk into a clean shower like this one this morning? This homeowner actually had hard water build up before we arrived! With our techniques and absolutely NO chemical use we were able to remove the hard water build up! Stop spraying chemicals in your shower at the end of each use because it just causes more build up and makes a contact for the hard water, lime scale and mildew to attach to.  Instead keep a squeegee handy and simply wipe off the excess water off of the glass shower doors on a regular basis.

At the end of the day the first thing I am hearing on the late night news is how many cases of the flu are in my area hospitals and how there are different types of the flu. We want to let all of our clients know that we always take all precautions in not spreading germs from one home to another. When we have clients that make us aware that they or their family have contracted the flu we wait to service their home until 4 days after everyone is better. It is a hassle on our schedule but a blessing to our health. A lot of us think if someone sneezes or coughs around us we can get the flu, well that may be the case but the more common cases are every day items that we touch. Did you get gas today? Use the pump? Press the keypad? Someone with the flu did too. You then touched your door handle to get back into your car and now the germs have spread. One quick tip is to use the gas station paper towel service option. Most gas stations have a windshield washer station under the trash can areas. They also have paper towels in that area. When getting out of your car grab one and put it to use in your gas transaction. In our clients homes we always use a tea tree oil solution to disinfect door handles, light switches, fridge doors, remotes and telephones. Those items are the most touched items in homes however they are also most always overlooked in our everyday cleanings unless you have Penny’s Personal Touch Services. If you are a Penny’s Personal Touch Cleaning Service customer we have you covered! If you are looking for Austin house cleaning or Round Rock house cleaning be sure to click on our website and we can get you covered too. Please do your part in this flu shakedown and let us know when someone is sick in the house. It helps keep our ladies healthy and our schedules on point. We greatly appreciate it!
