A local carpet cleaning company is lending its services to superstorm sandy victims on the East Coast. Accurate Carpet Cleaning Services specializes in flood restoration, and mold removal.   When workers saw the extensive damage along the eastern seaboard, they decided to do something.

The seven workers have packed up nearly 300 pieces of equipment to get families dried out. This kind of work is great for their business, but the owner says he's still willing to help those who can't afford his services.

"You'll have certain situations where people might not have insurance in that area," says Jeff Grycza, owner of Accurate Carpet Cleaning.  "And while we're working on a neighbors home, we'll go and assist and help them at no charge."

Grycza says if you know someone in the New Jersey, New York, Long Island area who needs help with clean-up, contact the business.

You can reach Accurate Carpet Cleaning Services at 419-729-9966, or visit their web site at http://www.accserv.com/ .
