  Manager, CEO and President, Clean Care, Inc., Monterey, CA 1997- Present (carpet, rug and upholstery cleaning, complete rug and dry cleaning plant)
• Rug Cleaning
  Area Rug Cleaning is performed in the area’s only completely equipped plant. In fact, it is the only one between Santa Barbara and San Jose.
• Vacuuming
  Hydra Care™ - This is our exclusive extraction process for cleaning upholstery and fabrics. After vacuuming the fabric is pretreated with a special neutral pH emulsifier and agitated with natural protein fiber brushes to separate any soil from the fibers. Then it is rinse extracted using extraction tools designed to work only with the surface material leaving interior fillings dry. No residue is left and the soil and emulsifier are completely rinsed away. This is far more effective than surface methods using foams or shampoos which are not rinsed and which leave both soil and soap in the fabric.

  Hydra Care™ - Deep Thorough Cleaning - Our version of "Hot Water Extraction" cleaning also known as Steam Cleaning". We use the best self contained (we don’t use your electricity or water) truck-mounted equipment worth $50,000+. This system pre-treats and then rinse extracts the carpet with a vacuum capable of 210" of water lift and 200 CFM of air movement to prevent any possibility of over wetting. This is the method recommended by most manufacturers because it rinses and removes the suspended soil and emulsifiers. It is an effective restorative cleaning process on almost all carpets. Analogy: Put shampoo on your hair, work it in, rinse it out, and vacuum your hair to dry.
