Services
Carpet Cleaning
Our Hot Carbonating Extraction process uses carbonation to lift dirt from carpet fibers, requiring 80% less water than steam cleaning. This method dries in hours, not days, and removes 98% of common allergens. Safe for kids, pets, and sensitive individuals.
Pet Urine Odor Removal
P.U.R.T. (Pet Urine Removal Treatment) targets urine crystals at the source, eliminating odors permanently. Unlike masking agents, this enzymatic solution breaks down odor-causing compounds in carpets and padding for lasting freshness.
Upholstery Cleaning
Low-moisture cleaning safely removes stains and allergens from sofas, chairs, and mattresses. Our non-toxic solutions preserve fabric integrity while extracting deep-seated dirt and non-living allergens like dust mites.
Specialty Stain Removal
Professional-grade solvents tackle permanent marker, grease, and set-in stains. Technicians use targeted treatments and protectants to prevent future staining, restoring textiles to like-new condition.
Hardwood Floor Cleaning
Gentle yet effective cleaning removes grime from hardwood surfaces without damaging finishes. Restores luster to high-traffic areas while preserving the natural beauty and longevity of wood flooring.
Questions
How does Chem-Dry's cleaning process work?
Our HCE process uses carbonated solutions to lift dirt from fibers. Low water usage ensures faster drying and deeper cleaning without harsh chemicals.
Can you remove pet urine odors?
Yes. P.U.R.T. breaks down urine crystals at the source, eliminating odors permanently rather than masking them with fragrances.
How long do carpets take to dry?
Carpets dry in 1-2 hours due to our low-moisture method, compared to 1-2 days for traditional steam cleaning.
Are your cleaning products safe for kids and pets?
Yes. The Natural is non-toxic, biodegradable, and free of harsh chemicals or soapy residues that attract dirt.
Do you clean upholstery and rugs?
Yes. We service area rugs, oriental carpets, and fabric furniture using the same safe, effective HCE process.
