Are Carpet Protectors Safe?
Until now, in order to protect your carpet, rugs and fine furnishings from spots, stains and premature wear, a hazardous (and carcinogenic) chemical had to be applied.
EcoClean Carpet Care now offers a safe alternative to Teflon & Scotchgard. Every single ingredient in our fabric protector has been rated “green”
Ask for Green Fabric Protector to be applied after cleaning when you next schedule an appointment with EcoClean Carpet Care.
2009 SpotMaster – Thomas Cermak
Another Cermak Wins Carpet Spot and Stain Removal Championship
Thomas Cermak of Dries in Minutes Carpet Cleaning, Kennesaw Georgia, earned top honor in the 11th annual Spot Master Championship – The Spot and Stain Removal Competition for Professional Carpet Cleaners.
Thomas is the third Cermak to win the annual SpotMaster Championship, with his brother Mark winning in 2006 and his sister in law Andrechelle taking the crown in 2007.
This wrapped up a stellar event for Thomas and was further proof as to why he was presented the “2009 Carpet Cleaner of the Year” award the night before.

LMCCA Becomes IICRC Shareholder
The LMCCA (Low Moisture Carpet Cleaners Association) becomes an IICRC shareholder.
The LMCCA is a strong and vocal advocate of the IICRC (Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification), including many LMCCA members that are IICRC Instructors, IICRC Master Textile Cleaners, and IICRC Certified Cleaning technicians, it makes perfect sense for the LMCCA to have ownership shares in the IICRC.
Andrechelle Cermak signs the documents to make it official at the LMCCA Board of Directors meeting Sept 10 at Connections in Las Vegas NV. Also pictured IICRC President / Chairman Paul Pearce and LMCCA President Mark Warner.
Attending Carpet Cleaners Events
In September we will be attending a Carpet Cleaners Conference and Trade Show in Las Vegas as well as a LMCCA (Low Moisture Carpet Cleaners Association) Board of Directors meeting. Then off to Atlanta for another carpet cleaning seminar, a Shaw Carpet Mill tour, another tour of PTL (Professional Testing Labs) and then to the SpotMaster Championship.
We will be closed for a few weeks and referring any incoming regular carpet cleaning to other cleaners in our local network and scheduling any work that requires a “Master” (us) for after our return in October.
Training Professional Carpet Cleaners
Andrechelle and I were in Pittsburgh yesterday to lead a training seminar for other professional carpet cleaners @ Pembertons Cleaning & Restoration Learning Center. Lots of bright eyes and good questions from students eager to learn. We love what we do and its a real treat to have the opportunity to share our knowledge and passion with others.
Yellow Spot Appears Days After Professional Carpet Cleaning
Got a call this afternoon from an upset customer that we had cleaned carpet for 10 days ago.
She complained of a yellowish spot that had just “appeared” in the last few days and was worried that it had happened outside our “7 day spot free guarantee”. (We were shocked as it was the first complaint, call back, re-do that we’ve had in the 5 years we’ve run this company, since we started in 2004.) She was very upset.
