Services
Residential Carpet Cleaning
Our Ultra Dry System cleans carpets thoroughly using non-toxic solvents that ionize dirt. The process takes about an hour with no water damage risk. Technicians vacuum first, apply solution, then use absorbent pads to lift stains. This preserves fibers and prevents rapid re-soiling. Customers receive free spot cleaner and detailed maintenance advice.
Commercial Carpet Cleaning
We clean commercial spaces with minimal disruption using fast-drying methods. Services include desk chairs, office panels, and high-traffic areas. The residue-free process works in healthcare facilities too. Businesses get maintenance programs to extend carpet lifespan. Free demonstrations and written estimates available. Our team handles post-construction cleanups efficiently.
Area Rug Cleaning
We clean all rug types with customized methods determined by pre-cleaning inspections. Services include pickup/drop-off and repair work. Non-slip pads prevent accidents while allowing airflow. Custom-cut pads ship nationwide. Technicians test rugs first to ensure proper treatment. Repairs address fraying, stains, and structural damage.
Upholstery Cleaning
Our solvent-based system safely cleans upholstery fabrics without water damage. The process removes stains while preserving fabric integrity. Technicians use soft pads to agitate and absorb soils. Drying takes about an hour, minimizing downtime. The method works on delicate materials and commercial seating. Customers receive care instructions to maintain results.
Carpet Protection
We apply protective treatments that resist stains and wear. The service extends time between cleanings by preventing soil adhesion. Technicians assess fiber types before application. Protection works with our dry cleaning process for maximum effectiveness. Commercial clients get maintenance schedules to preserve high-traffic areas. The treatment contains no harmful residues.
