Our Cleaning Process
A consistent, step-by-step process so you know exactly what to expect.
Pre-inspection
We walk the space, identify carpet type, problem areas, and set realistic expectations before any work begins.
Pre-treatment
A cleaning solution is applied to break down embedded dirt, oils, and traffic buildup.
Agitation of soiled areas
Heavily soiled and high-traffic areas are agitated to loosen ground-in grime for a deeper clean.
Extraction
Hot-water extraction flushes out dirt, allergens, and cleaning solution, leaving fibers fresh.
Spot treatment
Remaining spots and stains receive targeted treatment based on the type of stain.
Final grooming & inspection
We groom the carpet for even drying and walk through the results with you.
Dry Time
Dry time depends on conditions and how soiled the carpet is. Good airflow and lower humidity help carpets dry faster.
Pricing
Transparent starting ranges. Final pricing is confirmed after a quick look at the rooms, carpet condition, and any stain or pet treatment needed.
Ranges are estimates and may vary based on room size, carpet condition, and stain treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does carpet take to dry?
Most carpets dry in 4–8 hours. In low-humidity conditions it can be as fast as 2–6 hours, while heavily soiled carpets may take 6–12 hours. Good airflow speeds things up.
Can you remove every stain?
Not all stains can be removed — some are permanent depending on the substance, how long it has set, and the carpet fiber. We always inspect first and give you realistic expectations before treatment.
Do you treat pet stains and odors?
Yes. Pet accidents and odors are treated with a custom approach since they often reach the backing and padding. Pricing for pet treatment is quoted custom after inspection.
What method do you use?
We use hot-water extraction (often called steam cleaning) with pre-treatment and agitation for a deep, thorough clean that rinses dirt and residue out of the fibers.
Do I need to move furniture?
We’ll move lighter items like chairs and small tables and clean around larger pieces such as beds and heavy dressers. For the best results, clear small objects, breakables, and anything fragile beforehand — and just let us know about any pieces you’d like us to work around.
Is it safe for kids and pets?
Yes. Our solutions are applied and then rinsed out with hot-water extraction, leaving carpets fresh. We recommend keeping kids and pets off the carpet until it’s fully dry — both to avoid slips and to let the fibers set.
How often should I clean my carpets?
For most homes, a professional cleaning every 12 months is a good rule of thumb. Homes with pets, kids, allergies, or heavy foot traffic often benefit from every 6–9 months to stay fresh and extend the carpet’s life.
