"I would recommend this company to my friends. Spoke to the owner on the phone yesterday and he had an opening for a dryer vent cleaning service for today. Mike worked with me on a time that worked for both of us. The gentleman who performed the service was professional and knowledgeable. A very good experience. I will call Pro Carpet care as I also need to have my bedroom carpet cleaned which will be a challenge."

"Andrew was professional, in demeanor and appearance. He was on time. Courteous and friendly. Knowledgeable about his business. His price was a little higher than some of the adâ s I had see in the weekly throw away paper and when I asked why, his answer totally made sense. There is a difference between a surface clean and a thorough deep clean. It had been more than 10 years since my carpet had been cleaned, and with several stains due to 2- 100 pound dogs I wanted more than just a quick pass over the top. Thatâ s what guaranteed clean gave me, I couldnâ t be more pleased. Andrew was here for an hour and a half he moved my furniture, cleaned ALL the stains and left my carpet looking brand new and the whole house smelling fresh and clean. It truly is money well spent."

"She used a wax mop to clean my floors. She just used cleaning spray no mop bucket. Cleaning the floors in that manner, left them in sticky condition. Left cleaner and smears on the wall tiles for my tub. Didn't completely scrub out the filth in a few spots in my tub."

"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 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!"

Carpet Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Professional cleaning utilizes industrial-grade equipment and formulated cleansers that penetrate deeper into fabrics, removing stubborn dirt without risking damage that DIY approaches might, such as surface abrasion from improper tools.

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.

It is possible to get blood out of a carpet, but it is a difficult process in some cases, especially if the blood has dried. It’s best to address the blood stain as quickly as possible before the proteins in the blood bind to the carpet fibers. Start by blotting with just cold water, then with cold water and dish soap. From there, move on to more aggressive options as needed, such as enzymatic stain removers, hydrogen peroxide solutions, or ammonia solutions.

No, there’s no limit on how much you can tip your carpet cleaning pro. If you couldn’t prepare for your carpet cleaner beforehand, you might feel inclined to give them a large tip for their troubles. However, there's no pressure to tip that much, and most homeowners typically tip 10% to 20% of the total bill. 

Carpets can turn brown after cleaning due to a phenomenon called "wicking." It occurs when deep-seated dirt and moisture rise to the surface as the carpet dries because of excessive water or improper rinsing. Additionally, not allowing the carpet to dry thoroughly before walking on it can lead to browning.
