Frequently asked questions

  • How long does the carpet take to dry?

    Usually, it may take 4-8 hours or up to 24 hours for carpets to dry. Overly wet carpets are the result of an untrained technician and poor equipment. Our cleaning systems will not only extract, but also rejuvenate, and restore your carpet to a fresh, dry, soft finish.

  • What's the estimated time required to complete the cleaning of my carpet?

    For residential customers typically, it will require 1-2 hours on average. However, this duration may significantly differ based on factors like customers readiness upon arrival, furniture that needs to be relocated, the level of dirtiness present on the carpet, and any spot-cleaning procedures that might be required.

  • What method do you use for carpet cleaning?

    The method we use for carpet cleaning is Steam Cleaning. It is considered one of the best methods because it effectively removes dirt, stains, and allergens by using hot water extraction to lift away debris from deep within the carpet fibers. The heat and moisture help sanitize the carpet, killing bacteria and germs. Additionally, steam cleaning generally requires fewer chemical cleaners, making it a more environmentally friendly option.

  • Do you move furniture when cleaning carpets?

    Yes, our professionally trained technicians will gladly move light furniture for free. When cleaning a carpet, it's generally recommended to move furniture if possible. This allows for a more thorough cleaning process by reaching areas that are normally hidden beneath the furniture. However, we can't move everything, like entertainment systems, bookcases, and grand pianos.

  • Why are there bubbles or ripples in my carpet after it was cleaned?

    Bubbles or ripples in your carpet after cleaning are typically caused by improper installation, excessive moisture, or inadequate drying.

Our company follows industry best practices to ensure that your carpets are thoroughly cleaned and maintain their freshness without promoting faster re-soiling.
