Carpet Cleaning
Our truck-mounted hot water extraction system removes 98% of dirt and allergens using a 5-stage process. Certified technicians apply safe, non-toxic solutions followed by high-pressure rinsing and rapid drying. This method meets Shaw Industries' top recommendations for preserving carpet longevity while eliminating odors and embedded contaminants.
Upholstery Cleaning
Professional upholstery cleaning restores furniture with deep-cleaning techniques that remove stains and refresh fibers. Our technicians use specialized equipment to clean delicate fabrics without oversaturation, ensuring quick drying and protection against future spills. This service extends furniture lifespan while maintaining indoor air quality.
Stain Removal
Targeted stain removal addresses challenging spots from pets, food, and accidents using pH-balanced solutions. The process includes pre-treatment, agitation, and extraction to lift stains without damaging fibers. Technicians apply protective treatments to prevent future staining while maintaining carpet warranties.
Odor Control
Our deodorization process eliminates trapped odors through enzymatic treatments and hot water extraction. The system neutralizes pet urine, smoke, and food smells at the molecular level while leaving a mild, natural fragrance. This service improves indoor air quality without masking agents or harsh chemicals.
