"We had this company clean our home a few times before with no issue. Our latest house cleaning left me heartbroken. We trusted the crew that came into our home and discovered the damage done. First, the tv in our bedroom was broken. You can see in the attached images where they cracked it. We brought it up, that it seemed like an object struck it and thought it was a mop or broom. The manager we spoke to insisted that they did not use brooms or mops in the house. Not sure why he would lie. As you can see in the Ring picture, the crew member is sweeping our entryway with a broom. Second, they broke a figurine my father in law brought from a trip to Africa. It was a wedding present to celebrate our nuptials. They broke a leg and didn't even say anything. They just left the leg there. We don't have children and our dog doesn't go in that area. And it's just my husband and I in the house. Third, they scuffed our dining table on the side. Fourth, they claimed they cleaned the house, but we discovered the shower had not been cleaned. They offered to send someone to re-clean the bathroom, but I don't trust these people and don't ever want them in our home. I should inspect the house again because I am sure there is more damage. Not only will they damage your home, but they will also lie to you. Do not trust these people to enter your home."

"I think their policy is a punitive one: to charge you $100 if you switch from recurring to one-time. I offered to pay the difference between a one-time fee and a recurring fee after I cancelled because I was dissatisfied. They stopped communicating with me when I asked that they remove their charge of $100 and they said that it was their policy to make the charge. I think this is a bad business practice, although it is their policy. So that is why I am not going to give them my business again. They can keep my $100, which I think is a punitive charge, but they will not get any more of my business."

FAQs for carpet cleaning projects in Castle Hills, TX

Having your carpet cleaned professionally has several benefits for your carpet and your family. First, professionally cleaning your carpets can help thwart dust mite infestations and rid them of dirt, pet dander, particle pollution, and even lead. This can, in turn, help your allergies. Regular professional cleaning can also help prevent mold and mildew growth and even help extend the life of your carpet.

There are six main types of carpet cleaning. Each type is unique in its process of cleaning your floors. Your pro can help suggest the best method based on your carpet material and level of cleaning needed.

Steam cleaning uses hot water to clean deep into your carpet. Pressure is applied to the hot water to create steam, moving the chemicals to your carpet fibers.
Shampooing leaves foam on the carpet fibers to break up the dirt and stains before removal.
Dry cleaning only tackles the dirt on the surface level that hasn’t set in yet.
Carbonated cleaning uses bubbles to move debris to the surface of the carpet for removal.
Hot water extraction cleaning combines steam cleaning with ammonia or an acid solution to help liquefy debris.
Bonnet carpet cleaning uses a cleaning detergent and a specialized cleaning device that cleans the carpet's surface.

The cost for professional carpet cleaning is $180 for the average homeowner. However, you could end up paying as low as $80 or as high as $375 or more, depending on how much carpeting you have in your home and the type of cleaning you’ll have done, plus any add-ons like furniture and upholstery cleaning. For example, bonnet carpet cleaning averages around $150 since it’s more surface-level. However, due to its complexity, hot water extraction cleaning averages closer to $400.

Sometimes, carpets can no longer be saved and must be replaced. There are signs that you need to replace your carpet, such as stains that are impossible to remove or a smell that lingers on your carpet. And sometimes, the age of the carpet is the tell-tale sign that it needs replacing. Most carpet manufacturers say carpets should last for 10 years with proper care.

How often you should clean your carpets is really dependent on how much dirt and traffic they see. At a minimum, your carpets should be cleaned once or twice a year. However, depending on your lifestyle, having them cleaned more often is not unrealistic. If you have pets or children, consider having them deep-cleaned quarterly. If you have severe allergies, having your carpets deep cleaned every two months might be best.
