"Don with Green Mountain Carpet Cleaning was able to get out a large blood stain in my bedroom carpet. I had already paid the property manager who cleaned it three separate times to no avail. Don was very prompt in calling me back. He was at the condo the very next day and he got the blood stain OUT!! We were looking at having to replace the entire carpet and Don did it for a fraction of the cost. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND this company if you have carpet that you think is ruined. Im so pleased!!"
