Our Cleaning Process, Step by Step
Five careful steps from inspection to a clean, ready-to-use carpet.
Pre-Inspection and Spot Testing
We walk the rooms, check the carpet type and test problem spots before we start.
Eco-Friendly Pre-Spray
A safe pre-spray starts breaking down soil and oils.
Fiber Agitation
We work the pre-spray into the fibers so it reaches embedded dirt.
High-Temp Steam Extraction
Our truck-mounted unit flushes the carpet with hot water and pulls the dirty water out.
pH Balanced Rinse
A conditioning rinse leaves the fibers soft and balanced.
Pet Odor and Urine Removal
Pet urine is hard to clean because it goes deep into the carpet. Today's carpet pads are protected, so it usually does not soak into the pad. A quick surface clean can leave the smell behind. For deep pet urine, Dan uses an extractor tool. Tell Dan about your pet and where the accidents happened when you call. We use eco-friendly products that are safe for pets.

Dan came and cleaned our bedrooms and did an amazing job. He is very knowledgeable, fast and reliable. We will be using only him from now on! He came to remedy a carpet cleaning gone bad and saved us from needing to replace all the carpet. Hire him!
Great customer service from the initial call to the visit. Takes pride in doing the work the right way. Very thorough & efficient. I didn't realize these old carpets we had could get so clean. I've used other companies previously and the results achieved were never this clean. Highly recommend!
Dan is amazing at what he does. Extremely knowledgeable, friendly, always able to work with my schedule, and makes everything look brand new! Couldn't be happier with the service and the results.
All I can say is amazing people and amazing service! I was assured quality work and that is exactly what I got. They arrived on time, did their job very well and are just amazing people. By the end we almost forgot they were there for carpet cleaning! That's how well they connect with people.
We had the BEST experience! He was extremely kind and professional! Very affordable and did an amazing job! The carpets look brand new! Will 100% be booking with him again and will absolutely be recommending him to everyone we know!!

Vacuuming removes surface dust. It does not pull out the oils, soil and allergens that settle deep in the fibers. Steam extraction removes much of that buildup, which helps carpet look cleaner and last longer. It matters most in homes with pets, kids or heavy foot traffic.
For optimal results and to maintain a healthy home environment, it's recommended to have your carpets cleaned every 6 to 12 months. However, high-traffic areas, homes with pets, or households with allergy sufferers may benefit from more frequent cleaning every 4-6 months.
Typically, carpets take about 6 to 12 hours to dry completely. However, with our powerful Prochem truck-mounted extraction system, you can expect your carpets to be dry in just 3 to 6 hours. Factors such as humidity and air circulation can influence drying time, but we use speed-drying air movers to minimize any inconvenience.
Yes, absolutely. We use eco-friendly and non-toxic cleaning solutions that are safe for pets and children. Our methods are designed to be highly effective at soil and stain removal while ensuring a safe, residue-free environment for your loved ones.
Please vacuum the area if you can. Remove breakable items and small items from the rooms. Move furniture out of the way before we arrive. We do not move furniture.
