Curtains, blinds and drapery are an important window dressing feature and visual focal point for any room. They either make the room, or break the room, so it is best to keep them clean and bright.
Steam cleaning not only brings back the glow in your blinds by preserving their colour, it also gets rid of the dust and allergens that collect on the surface material over time.
Our curtain steam cleaning process involves the following steps:
Firstly, pre-testing is carried out to determine the curtain fabric and suitability for steam cleaning.
Secondly, we carefully select detergents in order to preserve the true colour of the curtain and avoid colour fading. Be assured that our Diamond Steam Cleaning team is professionally equipped and we use non-toxic and eco-friendly cleaning agents.
Thirdly, stains and spots are targeted and treated.
Fourthly, hot water extraction is carried out using our powerful equipment to extract the dirt, stains and pollutants.
And lastly, deodorising is the final part of our service. It leaves your curtains feeling and smelling fresh and clean.
Diamond Steam Cleaning’s competitive and flexible service is always available for your convenience. Contact our friendly team today on 0426 105 106 to book your appointment
Is Mannington flooring hard to install?
"Mannington Flooring is fairly hard to install. It is recommended by the company to have it done professionally and if not done by a professional, they ask that you read the instructions very carefully."
How much will it cost to carpet 25ft by a5 ft and the carpeting costs 13.00 per square yard?
25ft x 5 ft = 125 sq ft = 125/9 sq yards.
@13.00 per sq yard, it would cost 13.00*125/9 = 180.56
You can't refinish it. Laminate is a form of plastic. I'm sorry to say, but your floor is probably ruined beyond repair. You can try to remove the shellac, but be prepared to tear out the floor instead and replace if this doesn't work. I'd try a bit of citrus-based stripper on an inconspicuous area (closet?) - it will easily remove the shellac, but might damage the finish on the floor. (Can't be any worse than what you have now, right?) The citrus-based strippers work just as effectively as harsher chemical strippers, but seem to cause less damage to other materials. I've used it successfully to remove stain and polyurethane from vinyl windows, with no damage. Once done, clean the floor well with a laminate floor cleaner or window cleaner.
Is it ok to live in a room with wet carpet for a week or more?
No. You will be exposed to mold spores and other bacteria and germs. You must not be in any room or building that has sopping wet or even damp carpeting. The carpet must be ripped out or treated by a special company that replaces the carpet pad and dries out the carpeting after treating it with a disinfectant and mold inhibitor. If you are in a room like that you must leave it now.
Everyone in the house or apartment or duplex must get out and the professionals need to come in to inspect the place then come up with the proper way to treat not only the carpeting but the floors, walls and whatever else was exposed to the water.
So get moving out of there now. Do not take things with you that have been exposed to any form of dampness or wetness. You can call the Red Cross for assistance in getting relocated and getting professional help or one of the nearest churches. The Red Cross helps people who have your problem or have lost their living situation due to fire. This is true around the world.
How do you get rid of white stains on a terracotta floor?
It will depend upon what the stains are, but CLR is probably the best first choice, especially for "hard water" type stains. It is an acid, albeit fairly mild; so any finish on the terracotta, anything to make it shiny, might need re-application.
How many 3x6 tiles will it take to cover 210 square feet?
Assume that the tiles are 3 inches by 6 inches, although there is no reason to do that!
Area of each tile = 0.25 ft * 0.5 feet = 0.125 sq feet.
Number of tiles required = Total area to be covered/Area of each tile
= 210/0.125 = 1680 tiles.
That is the mathematical answer. In real life, the number required will depend on the configuration of the area to be tiled. For example, a circular area of 210 square feet will require far more tile cutting than a rectangular one - even fewer if both sides of the rectangle are in quarter of half feet. That then brings into play your tiling skills, wastage etc.
How do you remove yellowing from vinyl flooring?
yellowing in vinyl usually means the plasticizes in the product have reacted to something ie. water or solvent. this yellowing can not be removed sorry.
How much thin-set should you use for tiling?
Depends on the size of the tile. Bigger the tile, the more mortar. 4x4, 4x6 wall tile, 1/8 th should be enough, 12x12 and 16x16 should be 1/4 and for anything thicker, go to the 1/2 notch trowel.
Can you use cement to tile on an asphalt floor?
If you are positive that it is asphalt I would not suggest adhering tile directly to the asphalt. If removal of asphalt is not an option I would install a subfloor and use thinset mortar to adhere the tile. Another option (probably the better option) would be to pour a concrete mix over the asphalt. Than use thinset to install the tile. The concrete will incapsolate the asphalt. Asphalt more than likely has oils in it and can be a hazard.
How do you mix premix cement to lay over an existing badly laid cement floor in storeroom?
You will need existing floor to be clean and dry. Layering concrete like this is called a cold joint. Concrete does not like cold joints. That I why big jobs like the cn tower and Hoover dam are all one pour basically.
If you have to do cold joints, clean base floor, rent a sacrifice tool at a rent shop, rough up the floor as much as possible, clean all dirt and dust again, cover floor with a bonding agent from a box store, pour new concrete. Over 2" is recommended.
Another way to get it to hold is to drill holes into base floor or even put various concrete screws in base floor with just the heads sticking up a little bit so new concrete can grab.
What is labor cost to install ceramic tile floor?
Labor Prices
Fees & charges change from town to town, region to region, the best ways I can suggest to find a good range is:
Run a short ad in Craigslist, that will likely get you someone hungry & maybe unlicensed so you will know the cheapest price.
Then call the local Home Depot or Lowes & ask what they charge if you buy your tile from them?
That will be the highest price in the market
Now you would have a good range & then its time to look for quality & references. a steal on tile or a great price on labor, can be VERY COSTLY if you give the job to a butcher..
My bet will be you will find someone on the low end at about $2 per sq ft & that the depot will be $6-8 bucks a foot after they do all the add ins...
Get it in writing. Never pay for it all upfront

How many 12x8 square feet tile will it take to cover 200 square feet?
Your question needs a better understanding
I think you want to know a math problem answer,
so here is the formula
you can get there two ways...here is the easy way
so when you figure out the "X" above the formula is
(not in the real world but in math class this works. In the real world it depends on waste, breakage & the # of tiles in a carton)
How many 12x12 tiles do i need to cover a 132 sq ft area?
If you mean 12x12 "inches", then each tile covers 1 square foot.
We trust you can take it from there.
A joist note on a first floor plan would refer to the Joist below that floor, a joist note on the third floor plan woud be for that floor.
How many 18 x 18 inch tiles are needed for 195 square feet?
18" x 18" = 1.5' x 1.5' = 2.25 sq ft.
So the number of tiles needed = total area/area of each tile = 195/2.25 = 86.66.. that is, a minimum of 87 tiles.
That is the mathematically correct answer. In real life, though, you need to allow for breakages and wastage. This allowance will depend on your skill level and the shape of the 195 sq ft area. Some areas will require a lot more tiles to be cut or trimmed than others and all that could add to the wastage.
How do you determine how many boxes of tiles for a 240 square foot room?
30 boxes should work. Ceramic tile normally come in boxes of 10, so you would need 240 tiles or 24 boxes. Then add 20%-30% more for cutting edges, corners, islands, closets, waste, and breakage. That would be 5 - 7 more boxes. But it is best to have a few on hand for future repairs.
What is used to clean quarry tiles?
You can use quarry tile cleaners. They can be found at any tile store or hardware store. Instructions can be found on the box. But, if you want a simple solution you can try using warm water and mop. But you may need something a little more intense to truly get it clean.
