Call for service was answered right away. Schedule was flexible and set to my liking.  Was on time.  Did a fair cleaning job...looks good.  Black light still illuminates pet urine areas but there is no odor even when we are lying on the floor.  He did not bring any little plastic disks to set furniture on...I had to move the furniture to one side of the room then back.  He did help me lift the leather sofa to move it and 1 of the recliners.  He was going to just clean around everything in place.

I deducted "Professionalism points" because he nearly gave me a heart attack when he decided he wanted to see the upstairs (uninvited) and went dashing up the steps.. There were 2 small dogs barking and growling from 1 room...Luckily, Big Dog was alone in a closed room and remained calm...Big Dog is a guard dog and very large and protective. The door won't stop him if he feels we are threatened or receives the command word.  From the bottom of the steps I called to the service man NOT to open any doors.  Luckily for him, he did not and he returned downstairs.  I warned him that Big Dog never barks.  The guy was even checking out our back yard! He walked all through the downstairs...opened the bathroom door to see what was in there...luckily no one was in there at the time.  I felt like he was casing the place!

The price was great and the job looks good....but next time I think I will just rent a machine and do it myself.....easier on an old woman's heart! (since I had to move the furniture myself anyway...)

"I Hired AAA Magic Carpet Care to clean the carpets in my new home. There were some small stains and an odor that wasn't desirable, The arrived on time, and seems professional, however, after they left, there was a mold smell that wasn't their prior to cleaning. When I called them to see if they would be willing to rectify the situation in some way, they told me they were not willing to do anything to help. Overall, they did not do a bad job, all the stains were removed, and with weeks of open windows, they smell has seemed to disappear.

"Very well. The cleaning was done expediently, and the equipment left the freshly cleaned carpets and rugs almost completely dry. The owner was professional and explained the services that would be performed. I am also very concerned with being eco-friendly, and the owner assured me his cleaning chemicals were just that. I would recommend these services, in fact I recommended him to my neighbor, and he has used Tactical Drying."

Carpet Cleaning FAQs, answered by experts

The best steam cleaner depends on what you need to steam clean. The most consumer-friendly option is a steam mop for hard-surface floors, like tile, which is particularly effective at cleaning the grout. While you can use a steam mop for other things, a canister steam cleaner is more versatile in what it can clean, helping you tackle windows, counters, and even your car. A handheld steam cleaner is your best bet if you’re looking for a more portable solution to get into hard-to-reach places.

To prepare for mattress cleaning, clear the area around the mattress or move it to a different area so you or your hired specialist has ample space to clean thoroughly. This may involve moving furniture and any fragile décor items. Remove all bedding from the mattress. If possible, schedule your cleaning on a sunny day with low humidity to help speed up the drying process.

After a carpet cleaning, it's important to give it time to dry before walking on it. While you should wait at least one hour to prevent immediate damage, a general guideline is to stay off the carpet for 6 to 12 hours. For the carpet to dry completely, it's best to wait a full 24 hours if possible.

The exact drying time can vary based on several factors:

  • Carpet Type: Thicker or high-pile carpets may take up to a full day or longer to dry completely, especially if they are very wet.

  • Cleaning Method: Methods like steam cleaning, which extract most of the water, can reduce drying time, allowing for light traffic after 6 to 12 hours.

  • Environment: You can speed up drying time by ensuring good airflow, using fans, and maintaining low humidity. Poor ventilation will extend the drying period.

Walking on a damp carpet can re-soil it, leave footprints, and potentially damage the carpet fibers.

Without the proper cleaning techniques and products, your couch may look worn out and discolored after cleaning. This happens when you use too much water or soap, or use the wrong cleaning product for your couch’s fabric. To avoid an unsightly couch after cleaning, double-check that you’re using the correct amount of an approved cleaner along with the proper techniques.

Steam cleaning a couch should get rid of most smells, but there are some more potent smells that require a bit more work than steam cleaning. For instance, steam cleaning won’t likely get the smell of pee out of a couch. To remove urine odor from a couch, you’ll most likely need to use an enzymatic cleaner, which targets the smell and stain.
