Spot On Cleaning provided emergency and high-traffic commercial carpet steam extraction for Monroe University’s Jerome Hall in The Bronx, New York. Using our advanced truck-mounted hot water extraction system, we restored heavily soiled hallway and stair landing carpets to provide a clean, professional, and allergen-free environment for students and faculty.
Project Information
Service: Commercial Carpet Steam Extraction
Location: Jerome Hall, Monroe University
Neighborhood/City: The Bronx, New York
Client: Higher Education Institution
Project Overview
Monroe University needed intensive cleaning for the commercial-grade carpets inside Jerome Hall. Academic buildings experience continuous, heavy foot traffic that quickly pushes dirt, moisture, and debris deep into carpet fibers. The main challenge was effectively breaking down and extracting compacted dirt on the main hallways and stair landings without causing prolonged downtime that would disrupt student access. Spot On Cleaning was tasked with deploying a deep-cleaning solution that could handle massive square footage while ensuring rapid drying.
The Process
Pre-Inspection and Hose Routing
Our technicians parked the Spot On Cleaning service van directly outside the Jerome Hall entrance on the street level. We safely routed our commercial-grade vacuum and solution hoses from the truck-mounted unit into the building, navigating through the lobby and down the main corridors.
High-Traffic Pre-Treatment
We applied a commercial-grade, eco-friendly cleaning solution specifically formulated to break down heavy soil and oils bound to the synthetic fibers of the patterned carpet.
Hot Water Steam Extraction
Using a high-powered carpet wand attached to our truck-mounted system, our technician performed deep hot water extraction across the hallways and stairlandings. The high-pressure steam thoroughly flushed out embedded dirt, allergens, and bacteria, while the industrial vacuum immediately extracted the soiled water.
Accelerated Drying
Because our truck-mounted extraction system removes a vast majority of the moisture during the cleaning pass, the commercial carpets were left only slightly damp, allowing them to dry rapidly and preventing any mold or mildew growth in the high-traffic academic building.
Before & After Results
Before the treatment, the patterned carpets on the stairs and main corridors exhibited visible darkening, traffic lanes, and compacted soil from hundreds of daily footsteps. After our deep extraction process, the carpet fibers were revitalized. The extraction visibly lifted the dirt, restoring the original brightness of the carpet pattern and removing lingering odors and dust.
