I can't remember exactly how long it took for the job, but it was a few hours. They cleaned up after themselves as they went. In the end there were only a few sheet rock crumbs under a few of the vents from where they had screwed them back in. They estimated $30/vent, $30/register a.k.a. return, and $225/coils-fan-air handler in the attic. I had 12 vents so it should have been $615 + tax = $665.74. When they came and saw that the coils/fan/air handler weren't that dirty they gave me a discount. I ended up paying $108.26 less than the estimate. I thought that was pretty awesome and very honorable of them. That's what made me call them in the first place. Previously I had an AC leak in the attic that leaked through my ceiling and got my brand new carpet wet. They came to see if I had damaged the new carpet or if it was still wet. They told me that the carpet was dry and no mold was growing, so I didn't need the carpet cleaned. I guess they figure good deeds are repaid and it was. Would I use them again? Yes! I like to have my carpets, couch, and la-z-boys cleaned once a year. Plus Steamatic cleans grout. Would I have my vents cleaned again? Not any time soon. It turns out they weren't that dirty so the dust wasn't really coming from them. We don't smoke. We don't burn candles. We do have pets - two rabbits and they shed about four times a year. We use the Filtrete 1500 3-month electrostatic filters that cost around $17 each - the ones in the purple packaging, and that helps a lot. Plus the ducts are smooth inside (not the accordion foil-like ducts) so there isn't anything for dust to adhere to inside them. The guys showed me cell phone pictures from inside the air ducts and they said they weren't bad. And we have lived here 14 years without cleaning the vents. The house was built in 1966 and I don't know if the previous owners had the ducts cleaned. Am I glad I had the ducts cleaned? Yes! For my peace of mind it is better to know than not know and suspect they are dirty.

I used them for the carpet that I had on the floor for years. I was just really disappointed in their customer service. So there was no way I was going to go with them, it was too risky. Whereas the customer service of the company I went with was incredibly good. Their price was slightly better, but not enough to take the risk. I ended up paying the other company just under $7000. What Discount Floors quoted me was under that by approximately $500. It was not enough to take the risk. I had wood laminate put down in major parts of my house and then carpet in the two remaining bedrooms. So I picked out a laminate with them and then said, \"Now, here are my parameters for carpet that I'm looking for.\" The representative just said, \"Well, there is the carpet sample. Have at it.\" No help, whatsoever. I went back again because on my own I picked out a carpet that I just thought, \"This is more expensive than is necessary and deeper pile that I need. Let me see what else I can find.\" I got a bit more help from another representative. But while I was there, the original guy was there when I went back to find a better carpet sample for my need. He was very polite. He was sitting at his desk and he said, \"I've got a customer I'm working on right now and another in the store.\" So like I'd be third in line. \"Do you mind waiting?\" I said, \"No, that's fine.\" Then he had, to their credit, another salesman assist me in looking at other carpet samples. But then he got a phone call. The receptionist went to him and said, \"You have a call from so and so.\" The guy said, \"Well, tell him I'll call him back.\" She must have said, \"You need to take this call. This guy is really angry.\" Because then I overheard his end of the call in which he was going, \"Sir, I'm not trying to put you off\" So clearly it was a really angry customer. That, together with my experience just sealed it. There was no way I was going to take a risk. I think even without that angry phone call, I just was reluctant. Dealing with the public is difficult. So if it were just the phone call that would have been one red flag, but I already had my own red flag in dealing with them. Whereas the company I went with, I had a similar thing. I had picked out a carpet and then I thought, \"This carpet is slightly more expensive than the laminate. So it must be of higher quality.\" So I called the woman I had dealt with and I said, \"I would like to see what some alternatives would be that would cover my needs\" Because I have cats, I wanted something that was going to be not only stain resistant but would hide any stain residue as well. When I went over there after that call, she had picked out some samples. She had them ready for me. She was with another customer, so another sales person helped me look through those. Everything I requested they did. I'm real sensitive to chemical odors. So I know new carpet with the glue and with chemicals and all of that was going to be just really bad. Once I signed the contract, I called back and said, \"Is there anyway you can air out the carpet?\" She said, \"Let me figure out how to do that. We'll do our best.\" She was concerned about unrolling it in their warehouse because it would get dirty. But when the men brought it in, it was folded. It was not rolled. Clearly, it had been aired out. Somehow the fumes dissipated pretty quickly. I was just very pleased with them. The guy from Discount Floors who came to measure was certainly punctual and professional enough."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/tx/bryan/discount-floors-reviews-5503720.htm"},"position":8},{"@type":"ListItem","item":{"@type":"LocalBusiness","name":"Fish Window Cleaning","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","addressRegion":"TX","addressCountry":"US"},"review":{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Charlene C."},"reviewBody":"I recommend them for gutter cleaning.

I intentionally let the dust build up on the piano (with a finger swipe in a remote section) to see if they attempted to clean it. After three of their visits it was still not touched and my finger swipe was by then barely apparent).

I love my carpet but the installation of the carpet is terrible. This job was all done by one person. The master bedroom is a 16X17' room including the closet. He moved all the furniture out of the bedroom by himself, stuffed my king size Sleep Number mattress in my bathroom, which was...
Steve Jones and his team arrived promptly at agreed upon time. They immediately started into the pre cleaning procedure, then seamlessly into the cleaning procedure and post cleanup was excellent. Would recommend this group anytime.

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.
