How do you fit cleaning into a short rental turnover?
Sevier County has a lot of rental homes, and turnover windows can be a few hours between checkout and the next arrival. Tell us the checkout time, the next check-in and how we get in. We plan the visit around drying time: low-moisture carpet cleaning dries in about 30 minutes to 2 hours, so it’s usually the pick when the window is tight. Steam takes about 1 to 3 hours and is the right call for heavy soil or pet accidents. More on make-ready cleaning.
Why does rental upholstery wear out so fast?
A sofa in a rental gets sat on by a different group every week: sunscreen, bug spray, snacks, wet hair after the pool or hot tub. Body oils build up on arms and headrests and turn them dark. We check the fabric and the care tag first, then clean with steam or low-moisture, whichever the fabric can take. See our prices for couches, loveseats and sectionals. See upholstery cleaning.
What should I do if a guest reports water on the floor?
Ask them to stay clear of wet outlets and, if they can safely reach it, shut off the water at the main. Have them send photos. Then call or text us at (865) 255-9692, any hour. We extract the water, remove what can’t be saved and dry the structure, with moisture readings to show when it’s done. If it’s from a toilet or a backed-up drain, that’s Category 3 water and needs sewage cleanup, not just drying. See water damage restoration.
Do hillside homes in Seymour get crawlspace water?
Many do. Seymour’s rolling, wooded lots mean houses are often built into a slope, and storm water runs downhill toward the foundation. Shade keeps the ground damp longer. If you smell something musty or see water under the house after a storm, it’s worth a look before it turns into a mold problem.
Year-round homes here deal with the same thing. Check that gutters drain away from the house and that the crawlspace vents or vapor barrier haven’t been knocked loose. If there’s already growth on the wood, see mold remediation.
Can you clean the drapes in a rental without taking them down?
Yes. We clean drapes, sheers and valances while they hang. Nothing comes down, and most jobs take under an hour. Drapery is quoted on site. See drapery cleaning.
