"Rich was a true professional from the walk through and estimate to performing the carpet cleaning. He explained the process and is very reasonably priced. He cleaned the carpet of a 3 story townhome. The carpet had not been cleaned for many years. The carpet looks like new after the cleaning. It took approximately 4 hours to complete the job. I would highly recommend Rich for all your carpet needs. He also referred me to a contractor that was able to fix a roll in the carpet prior to cleaning."

"LSJC Carpet Cleaning Services exceeded all expectations! When I first inquired about a clean, Luis, the business owner, was very attentive and responsive. I was thoroughly impressed with the results. Stains I worried were permanent are completely gone, and the team was very cautious with all of my furniture. You can tell they truly care about quality and customer satisfaction. I highly recommend LSJC to anyone looking for reliable, top-notch carpet cleaning. I'm going to try to keep my carpets clean, but if not, I know I can rely on LSJC and their services again!"

Carpet Cleaning FAQs, answered by experts

Generally, it’s recommended that you vacuum your carpet once per week and steam clean them every six to 12 months. If you have children and pets, you might wish to steam clean more frequently to remove stains and wear-and-tear. Consider steam cleaning carpet every 6 months in these scenarios.

The duration of mildew smell in carpets depends on several factors, including the extent of moisture, cleanliness, and ventilation. If promptly addressed, the smell can diminish within a few days to a couple of weeks after thoroughly drying and cleaning the carpet. However, in severe cases or if not properly treated, the smell might persist. Persistent odors could indicate deeper mildew growth, requiring professional cleaning or, in extreme cases, carpet replacement to completely eliminate the smell.

Different rug cleaning companies may prefer different methods of cleaning for area rugs, but many prefer to steam-clean rugs and carpeting. Steam cleaning avoids using detergents and cleaners that can be sticky or contain harsh chemicals. Shampooing a rug requires using brushes to agitate and remove the cleaning agent from the carpet, possibly subjecting the carpet fibers to unnecessary wear and tear.

You can use chlorine bleach to lighten a colored carpet or clean a white carpet. Bleach will naturally lighten your carpet no matter its color; however, there’s no guarantee the color will be even throughout the carpeting.

If you decide to lighten your carpet with bleach, apply it using a carpet cleaner to provide a more even application. After applying it, be sure to suction it out from the carpet fibers and rinse thoroughly with clean water.

The recommended frequency for cleaning your carpets depends on several factors, including foot traffic, pets, children, and allergies. As a general guideline, you should have your carpets professionally deep cleaned every 12 to 18 months. However, for households with high foot traffic, pets, or children, more frequent cleanings, such as quarterly, are recommended. If anyone in your home suffers from severe allergies, cleaning the carpets every two months may be best. Between professional cleanings, vacuuming at least once a week is ideal to lift surface dirt. A good time to schedule a deep cleaning is after a rainy or snowy season to avoid tracking in new mud. For a personalized schedule, consult with a carpet cleaning team, who may offer packages for ongoing visits.
