"Great Experience from the very first phone call throughout the clean-up! I was very pleased with their customer service, communication, and professionalism. Communication is key these days with any contractor AND I am very happy to say they called back almost immediately, gave a very fair estimate/price for the job, and kept in touch with me for scheduling and reminders. Dwayne and his crew showed up on time, helped me out with post-construction/hardwood floor refinishing clean up (we had so much dust!), and did an excellent thorough job. I was a little anxious about my new finish on the hardwood but they were very careful to protect the floors and put me at ease. We were very satisfied and would highly recommend them for any type of cleaning project."

Carpet Cleaning FAQs, answered by experts

There are a few cleaning products that you should never use on carpets because you may accidentally ruin them. Do not use bleach, dish soap, laundry detergent, and abrasive cleaners on carpet. For more guidance on products to avoid, consult a local carpet cleaning company for expert advice.

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.

The fastest way to soak up water in carpet is to use a wet/dry shop vac to draw out as much water as possible. Afterward, apply firm pressure to towels to sop up any remaining moisture, then liberally sprinkle baking soda over the carpet and let it sit for at least an hour before vacuuming it up. You can speed up the process by opening windows, using blower fans to create airflow, and running a dehumidifier. 

If your carpet is 15 years old and has yet to be cleaned regularly (every year or two), then you may need to replace the carpet. Wear patterns, stains, and dirt that has filtered into the carpet may not come out if it isn’t maintained properly. However, a professional carpet cleaner will test clean a small area or room to see if cleaning will give your carpet another couple of years of life. Otherwise, your best option may be to replace the carpet.

You can expect your carpet protection to last about six months to two years. It will last longer in low-traffic areas (compared to busy areas, where your carpet experiences more wear and tear). Once the protector wears off, you’ll need to call your carpet contractor to reapply the stain protection treatment and revive your carpet.
