Howard Partridge founded Clean as a Whistle in 1984. Partridge was in the restaurant business before entering the carpet cleaning industry. Being experienced in fine dining, he knew how to serve people. Partridge quickly realized that most carpet cleaning companies were not providing good service and did not seem to know about cleaning either. Additional contact name - Johann Deleon. Additional e-mail - [email protected]. Award winning.

"I have used them for over 15 years. Always a good job!"

"The wait for installation was long and when scheduled, they called to "reschedule" due to the installer. Apparently they use outside contractors to install. When they showed up, they worked hard but one installer left for over 2 hours, leaving on one to work. They did not want to quit and come back (found out they get paid by the job and couldn't pick up a new job until ours was finished. They left the house at 10:05 PM. The salesman put the wrong transitions in the order despite numerous conversations. They also installed the shoe molding around our kitchen island wrong. I went to store in Pearland the next day. My salesman had been transferred and I met with the District Manager. It took over a week to get anyone back out to fix and then they brought the wrong transitions again. I called the District Manager and complained. She told me they weren't there to fix the island until I asked her to check the paperwork and she admitted it was on the work order. After numerous phone calls, the installers went to Home Depot and came back with something that would work. They were nice and got it fixed. The carpet was scheduled later and when they showed up, they pulled the old pile carpet and told me that the defects in the staircase would show up if they installed the berber carpet. I asked why the salesman didn't discuss that with me. He said the salesmen don't install. They suggested I fix the staircase, repaint it and call them back. I got it fixed and called the store. The District Manager told me it would be 3 weeks before they could come back even though the installer said it would take less than 2 hours to install it. I have called back and asked to improve the installation. They said they send an email to installation but I am still waiting a week later. I am calling the COO in Houston tomorrow. The first 2 times I used Floors for Living, they were privately owned but have been purchased by another company. The entire process was much different and less congenial. I won't ever use them again and caution anyone thinking about it to check multiple review sources."

We are passionate about INSANELY CLEAN carpets, tile floors, area rugs, and upholstery!! And we'd love to work for you!! At Zerorez, we don’t use soaps or harsh chemicals. Instead, we use a patent-pending solution called Powered Water. Driven by science, it’s simply soft water that’s been zapped with electricity. It’s safe enough to drink, yet powerful enough to clean. Our green, yet powerfully effective cleaning methods will make you a believer in the Zerorez Clean! No harsh chemicals. No soaps. Cleans better than both! Only Zerorez cleans without leaving dirt-attracting residue behind. No other carpet cleaner in the world gets your carpets as clean - or keeps them clean as long - as Zerorez.

"Badley, I saw them advertising on a TV show called 'great day Houston', He said there is no surprise in our company. they were anything but surprise. BUT Get ready to pay more than they told you on the phone. plus my rug is still filthy. the young man who did the job was nice and polite and was doing what the owner told him to do which was to go over it only once!! he told me, ma'am, the water still looks dirty we need to take your rug to the factory to clean it and it will cost $550.00 I ask him to go over it one more time, and he said ''I can not do that''. ''it cost more money''. I did not want to get him in trouble so I paid him what I was told and asked him to leave. I gave them a zero for their survey, and they called me to fix it but again they were telling me to pay more to clean it. I will post the picture of the rug that was taken on June- 26 2021and another pic is 6-2-2023 after they suppose to be cleaned. to see how it was before and after. my rug already looks clean before they cleaned it. I'' give them Zero stars. Word of mouth is the best advertisement."

UpFront Home Services is an Aggie owned and veteran founded cleaning and restoration company based in Katy, TX. We specialize in carpet cleaning, tile and grout restoration, upholstery, air duct cleaning, and more. We’re known for our upfront pricing, exceptional service, and no surprises. Every service includes a deep clean with eco-friendly products and comes with a 7-day re-clean guarantee.

"I scheduled a grout cleaning on my 2-year-old house because it had the regular gunk build up from kids and pets, but nothing outrageous with any expectation of not being able to be cleaned in the normal course of a grout cleaning. The first day, the technician came and was very friendly, very nice. Unfortunately, when he left, we noticed all the gunk and grime had splashed all over our walls, our cabinets, our appliances, etc. Additionally, we noticed that certain areas in the grout were all of a sudden very dark, where they previously weren't. We called him back out the next day, and he apologized for the inconvenience, cleaned up the walls, appliances, and cabinets, and said the dark spots were just still drying and to give the company a call if it didn't dry in a couple of days. Additionally, there was some water damage to one of our door frames to the laundry room, to which he just responded, "I remember that door frame being damaged." Unfortunately, there is no way of proving one way or another, so I left that alone. About a week later, we called him back out, he said "no problem" and proceeded to re-clean the dark spots and said if that didn't work, maybe there would be a need to rework the grout and find a similar color. I followed up with him multiple times since then to no response. The last message exchange was on Feb. 2, where I sent pictures where the dark spots did not lighten up and asked what could be done. To which, Daniel responsed, "the next step to those areas is try to match the grout color with a color seal." When asked "when can that be done?" he simply said, "let me see." Since then, I have not received any type of response, call back, etc. My house, which was essentially pretty new, now has crappy dark spots on the grout, where there weren't any issues before. There was no actual remedy, and I got ghosted. It will now cost me another tiny fortune to fix the issue that was caused by your company."

"Brightway Carpet Cleaning is an excellent business. They truly care about the satisfaction of the customer and will go to great lengths to achieve that. I had used them before on our prior home and was extremely satisfied with them then, but now I could not be happier with their services! We just moved into a new home that had carpet that had not necessarily been well-cared for or respected. I had Brightway clean the carpets (of which there is a lot of square footage) a couple days before we began to move in. However, once we arrived at the home, the prior owner had still been living in the house in the couple days' interim (they were supposed to be moved out but they did not) and left the carpets very dirty again in some areas, including pet accidents that were left to sit. This rendered the carpet cleaning we just paid for not nearly as effective as it should have been. I explained the situation to Brightway, and they told me that they would come back out and clean all the carpets again for me at no charge because that situation was out of my control. They also came out to the house on two separate occasions to look at the carpet and assess the ductwork/ventilation system for potentially needing to be cleaned. That is AMAZING customer service!!! One of the best parts is this, though. We concluded that the ventilation system needed to be cleaned also. My entire family had been struggling with allergic reactions (coughing, sneezing, lots of drainage) ever since the first day we stayed in the new house. It was particularly bad overnight, and we were all losing a lot of sleep. Dallas not only came back out and cleaned our carpets a second time, but he thoroughly inspected our ventilation system and did a fabulous job of cleaning and disinfecting it. The very first night after he did it, we all noticed an immediate difference in how we slept and we didn't experience any of the allergy symptoms we were having. My two little boys are sleeping well and not struggling. Every day since the ventilation cleaning has been a dramatic change for us. That is priceless! Dallas did a fantastic job and is committed to excellence. Kevin, Dallas and Denise have helped us so much! Cannot say THANK YOU enough!"

"Absolutely do not use this company. We spent over $20,000 on engineered hardwood flooring for our home, and the installation was handled negligently. This company failed to perform a proper moisture test and did not apply a moisture barrier sealant on the concrete slab prior to installation ? both of which are standard industry practices for slab foundations. We trusted their expertise and assumed any required preparation would be recommended, but it was not. As a result, our downstairs flooring has been completely ruined due to moisture intrusion coming directly from the slab. Instead of taking responsibility, the company is now attempting to shift the blame to us, claiming it?s a foundation problem ? which it is not. Moisture levels in concrete naturally fluctuate with seasonal changes, and proper testing and barrier application would have prevented this issue entirely. We are extremely disappointed in both their workmanship and their refusal to stand behind their installation. "

Carpet Installation questions, answered by experts

If you’re using a carpet runner instead of a traditional carpet, pay attention to your width measurements. Instead of measuring the total width of your staircase with 2 added inches for foldover, simply measure the width you’d like the runner to cover. Runners generally come in standard sizes, so you may need to approximate what would look best in your space.

You can save money on labor costs by removing your old carpet before the professionals come in to install the new carpet. Just make sure to clear it with your contractor ahead of time. You might also be able to cut costs by buying carpet at certain times of year when it’s less expensive. These periods include late December to mid-January and late spring to early summer.

When it comes to flooring installers, licensing laws vary from state to state. Even if your state doesn’t require your flooring installer to have a license, your municipality or city might, so it’s a good idea to check with your town before getting started. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local general contractor guidelines. 

Hiring an unlicensed flooring installer could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations. 

As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:

  • The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check

  • Required to have applicable state and local licenses

  • Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review

  • Paying to advertise their services

  • Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi

Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.

The cost to install flooring is $2,990 on average, but the price range is between $1,500 and $4,460. You can expect to pay about $12.50 per square foot, but that can go as high as $22 per square foot for hardwood flooring. 

Factors like the size of your floor, the materials, and your geographic location will impact the total price. For example, the average cost of new flooring in Boston is between $1,200 and $3,250 while you can expect to pay between $2,000 and $5,700 for new flooring in Los Angeles. 

When installing carpeting on your steps, start at the top and work your way to the bottom. That way, you can easily control the carpet and create a better seal. This approach prevents the carpet from bunching up or creating wrinkles as you work. You’ll have better leverage over it as gravity helps guide it down each step.
