Summer is officially over and its time to put away the patio furniture for the season! We can clean your patio furniture cushions before you put them away. Protect your cushions with Scotchgard! Avoid stains that come with summer parties and give your guests clean, crisp, comfortable seating!

Our office is located at 2901 Parnell Avenue. Our shop is open and available to receive your cushions from 8:00 AM – 5:30 PM. When you bring your patio furniture cushions to our shop and your cleaning order reaches at least $50, you will get FREE Scotchgard on your patio furniture cushions!

“Referral is tops in everything they do. It is a joy to find a business that cares about their clients. The person answering the phone is pleasant and helpful.

Check out the before and after cleaning contrast of some patio furniture cushions we recently cleaned!

WOW! What a difference! The outside elements like the rain, sun, and wind can have an adverse effect on your patio furniture cushions. It doesn’t take long to notice that they need a detailed, thorough cleaning. Give your cushions the cleaning they deserve before you put them away for the winter. Next summer, your guests will be happy to sit on clean, fresh cushions!

We love burning candles this time of year, especially when having friends and family over! But what if you accidentally get candle wax on your carpet? Referral can save the day! The pics below show candle wax that was removed by Referral’s technicians. Our specialty spotting page has even more pics and videos of spots removed by Referral.

We can all agree that candles smell great. However, burning paraffin candles, rather than beeswax candles (beeswax candles do not produce soot) can cause soot to collect around the edges of your carpeted rooms and around your air vents. Is there a solution for this?? Of course! Referral uses a small hand tool to clean the edges of rooms and doorways. Read more about how to prevent these unsightly, dark lines here!

Remove your garden hose. Disconnect garden hoses from all outside faucets in the fall BEFORE freezing temperatures to prevent any flooding in your home. Find more Water Damage Prevention Tips here.
Clean & repair your gutters. Be sure to clean your gutters after the leaves fall or you could have a mess on your hands this spring. This can also prevent water damage to your home. Read HGTV’S tips on cleaning gutters yourself. Locally, we recommend Advanced Window Cleaning to take care of your gutter cleaning.
Think ahead for spring. Your garden could be blooming with tulips, daffodils and more… IF you plant the bulbs now! We found a good Better Homes & Gardens article on “Tips for Planting Your Favorite Bulbs.“
Get crafty. There are a lot of crafty ways to decorate your home for the fall season! Country Living came up with “30 Ways to Craft With Fall Leaves.“
