SPONSORED CONTENT BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT SPONSORED CONTENT Renowned Carpet Cleaner Starts Up Service for Hardwood and Stone Surfaces F or nearly 30 years, Jeff Henzler has been cleaning the dirtiest carpets in the region. This year, he’s going to cover some new ground with an offshoot business named Ultimate Floors to meet a growing market demand. “Over the last 20 years, we’ve noticed in the industry that homeowners have replaced their first floors – from carpeting to hardwood, ceramic tile or marble. In our immediate area, hardwood seems to be more prevalent,” Henzler said. “The downside is homeowners are using a variety of different retail products to maintain them and finding that the floors are dull, not clean and shiny. The whole floor is diminished, even though the hardwood is not damaged in a lot of cases. These are cases where it doesn’t need to be refinished, but it causes a headache for the homeowner.” Ultimate Floors solves those problems by utilizing a specialized cleaning machine called the Dirt Dragon, which is not only powerful, but green as well. “It’s the greenest and cleanest finishing process out there, and a low-cost alternative to sanding, screening or refinishing a floor. There’s no dust and no heavy sanders, vacuums, sandpaper or screens. It can be 36 724.942.0940 TO ADVERTISE | North Allegheny used on all types of wood floors, and the best part is there’s no concern about chemicals. It’s all water-based, so it dries quickly with no odors, and can be walked on within an hour or two.” As the owner of a Citiwide Chem Dry franchise, Henzler knows floors. He’s been cleaning the Sewickley Library and Sweetwater Center for the Arts professionally for more than 25 years, and has amassed more than 20,000 residential customers throughout Western Pennsylvania. He’s also recommended as the go-to for professional cleaning services by bigname retailers such as Rusmur Floors, Levin Furniture and Ryan Homes. Branching out with Ultimate Floors is a natural progression of the business, he said. “There are a lot of floors out there that are not damaged, but just look terrible because the homeowner’s been cleaning with oil soap, Orange Glow and even Swiffers, which can dull a finish over time,” he said. “Our process cleans and rinses the floor thoroughly, removes different types of oils and residues, and finishes with a water-based polyurethane coating that will retain its luster for three to five years.” Those do-it-yourselfers who have resanded a hardwood floor know that you only get a couple of chances to refinish the floor before the grain is sanded away. The Ultimate Floors process leaves the longevity of the floor intact. “We’re not even talking old floors,” Henzler said. “More than 70 percent of the floors in our marketplace are on the newer side. They’re beautiful floors, but become dull and lifeless over time because of the retail products that homeowners use.” Ultimate Floors also excels in ceramic tile cleaning, grout cleaning and sealing, granite renewal—which is sealing and polishing granite countertops—marble polishing, and a whole host of stone-cleaning processes, including slate and travertine.
