"Todd Goins was very professional..came in first to explain the procedure and introduce himself. He was neatly dressed and friendly. Went back out, brought his equipment in,hooked the equipment up, turned it on and began shampooing the carpet. 3 small rooms he was finished in approx. 1/2 hr. Said to allow a full day to dry but it was dry the next morning. Carpet looks fantastic. Thank you, Todd Goins and the price was a lot cheaper than having my car detailed! Margo Brown"

"Chuck was awesome. Very responsive and professional. Came to the house on time and did an awesome job on the carpets. I had him come back to do the hardwood floors and all the tile in my home. The tile was unrecognizable when he finished. What a difference. I have a 5,000 sq ft. House and he cIeaned the entire floor surface including a bar top for me. will definitely have him come back for more work. Highly recommend."

Carpet Cleaning questions, answered by experts

There might be cases where cleaning your furniture yourself might save you in overall costs, which could total between $75 and $200 per piece of furniture. If your furniture is only lightly soiled, you can investigate the best way to clean your item by checking the care tag and tackling it yourself. However, keep in mind that knowing the right way to clean your item is crucial to maintaining its quality. If you’re unsure of the best way to clean your furniture or if you have a heavily soiled item, it’s best to contact a furniture cleaning service.

Yes, you can use a hose to clean an area rug. Before you do, it’s a good idea to vacuum out dust and dirt and use a rug brush to remove pet hair and other debris. Just be careful not to be too aggressive, or you’ll damage the material. Bring your area rug outside and wet it evenly with your hose. You can even use a pressure washer on a light setting if you have a new, durable rug. Continue soaking until the water runs clean, and then hang your rug to dry.

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.

Steam cleaning is generally considered better than shampooing for deep cleaning carpets. Also known as hot water extraction, steam cleaning uses heat to penetrate deep into the carpet fibers, effectively removing dirt, allergens, and bacteria without leaving behind a sticky residue. This method also tends to cause less wear on your carpet over time and leaves the fibers feeling softer. While a steamer can be more expensive, the cost is often justified by the longevity of your carpet. Shampooing may be a suitable option for quickly fixing odors or cleaning minor surface stains. However, it can leave behind a soapy film that attracts more dirt, defeating the purpose of the cleaning. The best choice depends on your needs; for a thorough, deep clean, steam is the superior option, while shampooing can handle light, surface-level dirt.

Deciding whether to clean or replace your carpet depends on its condition and age. If cleaning no longer resolves issues, it's time to consider a replacement. Key signs that you need to replace your carpet include:

  • Stains that are impossible to remove.

  • A persistent smell that lingers even after cleaning.

  • An increase in allergy symptoms.

  • The age of the carpet. Most manufacturers state that carpets should last about 10 years with proper care.

When cleaning is no longer effective, you should replace the carpet with a new one or consider other flooring options like vinyl or laminate.
