"I called Tuesday for a quote, call back asap, they cleaned on Friday. Now that's service! My house is clean, but due to illness things were falling behind. The ladies they sent to clean were very warm, spoke perfect English and did a great job. Time to enjoy the weekend relaxing not scrubbing. Thank you! SHC"

"We hired Intex Cleaning Specialists for our office move-out cleaning, and they did an absolutely fantastic job! Adam and his team were professional, thorough, and incredibly efficient. They left the space spotless—far exceeding our expectations—and made the entire process seamless and stress-free. From the carpets to the windows, every detail was handled with care. Communication was great from start to finish, and the pricing was very fair for the high-quality service we received. If you’re looking for a reliable and detail-oriented cleaning company, I highly recommend Intex Cleaning Specialists. We will definitely be using them again in the future!"

"Absolutely amazing couch cleaning service! My sofa looks brand new again — all stains, odors, and dirt were completely removed. The team was professional, punctual, and very detail-oriented. They used safe products that left everything fresh and clean without any harsh smells. I’m beyond happy with the result and will definitely use this service again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for high-quality upholstery cleaning!"

Carpet Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Focus on cleaning the air after you’ve finished cleaning surfaces. Use air purifiers, moving them as necessary from room to room. The air filters should be cleaned or replaced, depending on the type of filters you have. Clean the air ducts by yourself or by hiring a pro. Finally, open doors and windows to ensure the space is properly ventilated.

Typically, you should avoid using a traditional carpet cleaner on Oriental rugs because the chemical makeup of carpet cleaners can damage the rug’s natural fibers. You can, however, opt for a neutral pH cleaner, which can do a decent job of cleaning the carpet without damaging it. Always test whatever cleaning solution you use on a small, hidden spot of your rug first. That way, if any damage occurs, it doesn’t totally ruin your rug.

The cost for professional floor cleaning is $250 on average. This cost can range from $100 to $1,500, depending on the type of flooring and its square footage. 

For example, natural stone flooring requires specialized techniques and care, so you'll spend closer to the higher end of the cost range. The cost of cleaning tile and grout is more cost-effective, where you'll pay an average of $0.50 to $3.50 per square foot.

You can use several common household cleaners to clean carpets, including vinegar, baking soda, salt, and borax.

After a carpet cleaning, it's important to give it time to dry before walking on it. While you should wait at least one hour to prevent immediate damage, a general guideline is to stay off the carpet for 6 to 12 hours. For the carpet to dry completely, it's best to wait a full 24 hours if possible.

The exact drying time can vary based on several factors:

  • Carpet Type: Thicker or high-pile carpets may take up to a full day or longer to dry completely, especially if they are very wet.

  • Cleaning Method: Methods like steam cleaning, which extract most of the water, can reduce drying time, allowing for light traffic after 6 to 12 hours.

  • Environment: You can speed up drying time by ensuring good airflow, using fans, and maintaining low humidity. Poor ventilation will extend the drying period.

Walking on a damp carpet can re-soil it, leave footprints, and potentially damage the carpet fibers.
