The absolute worst experience. The salesmen lied to my wife telling her and her friend that the delivery time was 2-3 weeks, then putting 3-4 weeks on the invoice. They didn't meet that delivery date, refused to deliver the product for another week after it did come in. My wifes was told " what do you want me to do strap it to the top of my Volvo" by one store employee. and was told by another employee that she couldn't cancel the order and should contact an atorney if she had an issue with it.Would not do business with this firm if they were the last company on earth. ...read more

If there were minus-stars this business surely deserves it!\t\nNever never again with this totally unprofessional and rip-off company. I hired them to redo my kitchen - they outsourced it to some contractor who had absolutely no idea about the design that MillCreek had agreed upon. The subcontractors left the house in a a total mess - ruined my front yard with grout and concrete and the tiles were haphazard, the kitchen sink was a recycled one and the management totally ignored our calls/emails. Only after complaining to BBB they sent a worker to fix a leak. The work that was supposed to be completed in 4 weeks has still not been completed but they want full payment. One thing they really are good at - threatening lawsuits! ...read more
Tulsa Carpet Cleaning - Frequently Asked Questions b2ap3_thumbnail_carpet-cleaning-questions.jpg If you just had your carpet cleaned or thinking about having your carpet cleaned then this article will answer some of the questions you may have. After 27 years in the carpet cleaning business the following are a few of the main questions we have been asked after cleaning a home owners carpet. 1. How long will it take for my carpet to dry? Usually between 2 to 4 hours depending on how soiled the carpets are. The more soiled the carpet is, the more solution is needed, the longer the drying time will be. To speed up the drying time, set your thermostat “fan” setting to “on,” turn on all ceiling fans and open window blinds to allow the direct sunlight in. Do not open windows or doors on wet or humid days. This allows outside moisture in and will slow the drying process. 2. Can I walk on the carpet after it has been cleaned? It is best to stay off the carpet until dry, although often times this is not possible. If it is necessary to walk on the carpet after cleaning, ask your carpet technician for a complimentary pair of shoe covers. 3. My carpet is a stain resistant carpet. Is it necessary to reapply a carpet protector? Carpet stain blockers do wear over a period of time. Carpet manufacturers recommend that you reapply a carpet protector each time you have your carpet cleaned. To protect your carpet investment, ask your technician about our Green Guard Carpet Protector. 4. What about stains that keep coming back? There is nothing that any Carpet Cleaning Company can do to prevent stains from reappearing. Stains that keep coming back are a result of spills such as coffee, pop or pet stains that have gone into the backing. The stain “wicks” its way up from the backing, through the carpet fiber and to the surface. If a stain is going to “wick” after cleaning, it will usually do so the following day. If this happens you can call the office at 918-254-4095 or 918-437-1956 to schedule an appointment for a technician to come out and remove the stain with our heat transfer process at a nominal charge. 5. If a stain comes back, how can I remove it myself? You will receive a complimentary bottle of spot cleaner. Mix the following together in a 1 quart size spray bottle. Mixture: 4 capfuls of spot cleaner, 1 cup white distilled vinegar, then fill the bottle the rest of the way with warm water. Spray mixture on stain. Dampen a white terrycloth rag and wring out. Place dampened rag over stain. Using a household clothes iron on medium setting with steam on, place iron on rag and apply pressure for 20 seconds. Repeat process until stain is gone, rinsing out rag as needed. This process also works great on any future spills or pet stains! Be sure to clean off the bottom of your iron after each use. 6. How often do I need to have my carpet cleaned? Carpet manufacturers require that your carpet be cleaned by a professional using the steam cleaning method every 12 months in order to maintain the warranty. However, some heavily traveled areas such as hallways and other traffic areas may require more frequent cleaning. If you have children or pets, you may need to have your carpet cleaned more often. I hope this article has helped you with some of the most common questions asked concerning carpet cleaning and what to expect after having your carpets cleaned.

Carpet Repair in Tulsa: What can be repaired & when to replaceAll types of accidents can happen to a homes flooring such as wrinkled carpet, pet damage, spilt bleach, burns, tears and more. This article will answer the most common questions on when a carpet can be repaired or if best to replace. Common repairs that can be easily performed by a certified carpet technician saving you the high cost of replacement: 1. Loose & wrinkled carpet is the most requested carpet repair we receive in our Tulsa office. The reason most carpet becomes wrinkled over time is from poor & improper installation. Thanks to new carpet installation guidelines carpet is now installed using a power stretching tool, although in recent, this type of installation was not a requirement. This type of carpet repair can be easily remedied by a reputable carpet repair or installation technician. Be sure to request the re-stretching to be done using a power stretching tool and not a knee-kicker.2. Torn carpet, definitely #2 on the list of carpet repair requested. Carpet torn by a family dog trapped in a bedroom and trying to get out or the cat finding a string to play with can result in a torn carpet. This type of repair can be performed by a qualified carpet repair technician by squaring off the outside edges of the tear and seaming in a matching piece of carpet. If there is no matching carpet available a small piece can be taken from a closet. When having this type of repair done the expertise of the technician will determine what kind of results you will get. If the technician is good at what he does you will have a hard time finding the area once repaired.3. Burns such as a fallen clothes iron, a cigarette burn, or a smoking ember sparking its way out of the fireplace are all candidates for a carpet repair. This type of repair is performed the same way as a torn carpet, using a matching piece to replace the burnt area with. Anything under the size of a credit card will be hard to detect. If the area is larger you may be able to see the carpet seam somewhat but you can be assured it will always look better than a burn or hole in the middle of your living room floor. 4. Wax can be removed from carpet by chipping off the largest amount then removing the remaining wax carefully using a paper towel and clothes iron set on low. Again, you will get the best results from a qualified carpet repair technician. If this does not remedy the problem then the technician can patch in the area similar to the way a torn or burnt carpet is repaired.5. Red Kool-Aid Stains are easily removed by a repair expert familiar with the "heat transfer" process. This type of a method is great for Kool-Aid, wine, sports drinks, coffee, and stubborn pet stains. A commercially formulated emulsifier is used to lift this type of stain from the carpet utilizing a white terry cloth towel and a clothes iron. If the stain does not respond it can be "patched" in by the technician.6. Pet Urine that has penetrated into the carpet fibers and down to the carpet pad if contained in a small area can be restored by removing the contaminated carpet pad, installing new carpet pad and tack strip and treating the subflooring, backing, and baseboards with a sanitizer. You will want to have the carpet cleaned&sanitized as well. This process is known as pet damage restoration and works well for confined areas but does not justify cost if needed throughout much of the home.7. Water damaged carpet can be repaired similar to the steps in #6 above. It would be a good choice to hire a certified water damage restoration company that is knowledgeable in carpet restoration and drying procedures. It is very important to remove the damaged pad as soon as possible, clean the carpet and force dry with a carpet blower or fan. If left unattended the carpet pad will begin to mildew and before long a mold problem will require further restoration or even replacement. A knowledgeable carpet repair technician will be able to determine the correct thickness and density of the pad and match it, saving you from replacing the whole room with new pad and cutting your restoration cost. When should you replace? 1. Large areas of pet contaminated carpet should not be restored. Carpet pad is like a sponge and traps pet urine. If the pet urine has gone down deep into the pad, has heavily saturated the carpets backing, and it is not contained in a small area such as a dining room or corner of a room, then it is time to replace. Professional pet damage restoration for a whole house situation would be quite costly and would not justify cost. Remember pet urine crystalizes and turns into a gas which is why you detect it and over a period of time can cause respiratory and other health issues.2. Worn traffic areas are not restorable. Carpet that has been "flattened" down in the main walk areas is permanent. These areas can be raised using a nap lifter during the cleaning process and maintained with a carpet rake but once a carpet has been worn in traffic areas it can be quite difficult keeping it "fluffed up" again.3. Molded carpet should be replaced. Once there are visible signs of dark mold in carpet it is best to replace. There are products that can remove mold spores but it can be a big problem for those suffering from allergens and respiratory diseases. Also it should be noted that a carpet manufacturer̢۪s warranty is voided once a carpet has been damaged by water.4. Sewage overflows warrants for carpet replacement. "Gray or Black" water damage is how a restoration company classifies a water damage loss. It is always a good idea to replace carpet if there has been a sewage back up resulting in damage to your carpet. Much like the decision to replace molded carpet, an individual who suffers from allergens or has a respiratory disease will have a very difficult time with this type of bacteria in the home. Concluding this article on types of carpet repair and when to replace, you will find most misfortunate accidents that occur to your carpet can be easily repaired.

Carpet Protector: your best choice for preventing stains Almost all American-made synthetic carpet offer some sort of stain protection, which makes it easier than ever to remove spots. These treatments make carpet relatively impervious to spotting from food, beverages or pet accidents. But over time the protective chemicals can be worn away by heavy traffic. All carpet is ultimately a fiber. When treated with a stain treatment after cleaning, whether it is a stain resistant fiber or not, your carpet will be better equipped to repel stains. Why You Should Have a Carpet Protector Applied After Cleaning Over time the mill-applied carpet protectors can lose their effectiveness. This is due to the fibers being abraded during foot traffic. Although protective treatments are very good, they do need to be replenished after a few years of use, especially in high-traffic areas. The protection applied in the mill can wear off over time, and portions of the fiber can be exposed during abrasions that were not exposed during the mill treatment. The application of a carpet protector after cleaning will ensure that the performance of the fiber will be maintained. Benefits to carpet protector Forms an invisible shield around each fiber Prevents dirt from lodging into the carpet fibers Repels liquid spills Helps carpets last longer Protects your carpet investment Helps make carpets easier to care for Extra protection from children, pets, and accidents Maintaining the carpets stain resistance will help your carpet repel dirt and the less dirt will be able to build up – extending the life of the carpet fibers and the look of your carpet. Applying a carpet protector is always a good choice for preventing permanent stains.
