Older homes, a mild coast and hard water
Most of Lomita’s housing is old, with nearly four homes in five built before 1980, so long-laid carpet and older floors underneath are part of the picture. The city began in 1907 as a subdivision and incorporated in 1964, partly to curtail high-rise apartment development.
The climate is mild and coastal, with about 14 inches of rain a year and few days of real heat. Carpet here wears from foot traffic and spills more than from sun, and the Carpet and Rug Institute says how often to clean follows use, pets, how many people live there and the outdoor surroundings.
The city buys its water through the West Basin Municipal Water District, and it runs hard, about 12 grains per gallon on average, so the rinse is worth asking about.
A renter-leaning city of small buildings
Half renters, half owners
Renters hold a slim majority of homes. Half of all units are single-family houses, about a quarter are in buildings of five or more units, and a small share are mobile homes.
SourceCarpet that has been down a while
With nearly four homes in five built before 1980, some floors have seen many cleanings and some none. The institute’s advice is to clean as needed and at least every two years, and following the carpet maker’s own schedule protects a warranty.
SourceMobile homes count too
A small share of Lomita’s homes are mobile homes. Cleaning covers them like any other home, and the useful details for the call are the number of rooms and the kind of flooring.

Services that suit a small, older city
Carpet cleaning and upholstery cleaning suit a place of older houses and many renters, and rug cleaning handles whatever sits on top. Tile and grout cleaning is the one to remember for kitchens and baths. The Tile Council of North America says cement grout is porous and can absorb stains, and that the best method is to apply cleaner and vacuum up the dirty water.

In their words
What customers say on Google
A selection of our 5-star reviews on Google.
I particularly liked the way the lead cleaner described the PH balance of the solutions that they were using on our carpets. The acidic neutralizing rinse makes sure the floor doesn’t feel crunchy or sticky when it is dry. That extra step means our floors are very silky and totally residue-free.
My kids have turned the giant living room ottoman into a trampoline and it's forever soiled with imprints. Steam cleaning the hefty cloth removed all the dark grime and restored the original bright blue hue. The furniture which is the focus is clean and the living space appears a lot tidier today.
Thick outdoor seats were covered in tree algae and bird poop. Power-washings of the tough material killed any dirt from outside. We are pleased to be hosting barbecues from our clean chairs again.
