Customers say: True professional

"My experience with AA Quick Dry Carpet Cleaning on March 8, 2023 was fantastic! The owner, Al was very professional and courteous and took the time to explain his multi-step processe of how he was going to treat my carpet. I had some major problem areas throughout the carpeted rooms of my house and he was able to remove them like they never existed. Not only does this company clean the carpeting but they disinfect, deodorize and stain proof it too! I highly recommend AA Quick Dry Carpet Cleaning for all of your carpet and upholstery cleaning needs. I would give a 10 star rating if it was an option! Great service and a great value!"

"He cleaned the cream colored carpet in 2 bedrooms and 2 rugs in a hallway and family room. All four areas were cleaned perfectly. The family room rug gets heavy use and was really dirty but it looks (and smells) great. This is the second time that Carey has cleaned the carpets and I will hire him again."

"When Tom showed me how much dirt his machine removed from our carpets, I couldn t believe it. We chose the Chem-Dry service because we didn t want harmful chemicals in our house. We couldn t be happier with Tom s work or the results. He was also courteous and professional throughout the process."

Carpet Cleaning questions, answered by experts

You should avoid using a pressure washer on any surface or item that could be damaged by the high-pressure spray, as some materials are too delicate to withstand the force.

Key items and surfaces to avoid include:

  • Electrical Components: Never pressure wash electrical systems, as water can cause short-circuits and create a safety hazard. This includes utility meters, breaker boxes, electrical outlets, generators, and HVAC or air conditioner units.

  • Delicate and Fragile Materials: Fragile items can crack, shatter, or be stripped by the pressure. Avoid pressure washing windows, glass, light fixtures, shingled roofs (especially asphalt), and stucco.

  • Painted, Stained, or Sealed Surfaces: Unless your goal is to strip the finish, do not pressure wash painted surfaces, stained wood (like decks), or anything with a protective seal that could be stripped away. Be especially cautious with older surfaces that may contain lead paint.

  • Soft Woods and Certain Decking: Delicate surfaces like softwood, composite decking, and antique or wooden patio furniture can be etched or damaged. If you must wash wood, use a lower-powered pressure washer with a wide-angle nozzle to prevent damage.

  • Living Things: Never use a pressure washer on people, pets, or plants. The force can cause serious injury and will destroy landscaping.

Professional cleaning deeply removes dirt, allergens, and bacteria, enhancing air quality and prolonging furniture life. Expertise in materials prevents damage, retaining color and texture while ensuring thorough sanitation of fabric and cushions.

It might be possible to wash your couch upholstery, but we don’t recommend it. Couches labeled with a “W” or “W/S” on the tag might be okay to wash gently with a couch cleaner or a homemade couch cleaning solution, but you have to be very careful not to get the padding underneath wet, as it will deteriorate and potentially ruin your couch. You should hire a professional upholstery cleaner to guarantee a safe, deep clean for your favorite furniture items.

No, you shouldn’t let dog diarrhea dry before cleaning it. While cleaning the stain when it's dried sounds less messy, it can cause more harm than good. Old stains have a chance to dry into your carpet, and the smell can go deeper into the fibers. This makes removing old dog poop more of a headache to clean than dealing with diarrhea while it’s fresh.

To prevent water spots from appearing on your upholstered chairs after cleaning, avoid saturating the furniture or applying water directly on it, and don’t use direct heat to dry it. Instead, use damp (not wet) cloths and suds from water-based solutions and let your chairs air dry inside.
