Professional carpet cleaning

 
A couple of times a year, you'll want to give your carpets a more thorough cleaning, especially in rooms that are high traffic areas. Contact either a professional cleaning service or give your carpets a shampoo at home if recommended by your carpet manufacturers guidelines. Make sure you're always following the recommendations of your carpet manufacturer when it comes to carpet cleaning for maximum effectiveness and a beautiful end result.

Having a hard time fitting in a deeper clean for your carpet into your cleaning schedule? Add it in twice a year: to your spring-cleaning which will help remove any wintery residue, or at the first signs of autumn to prepare your home for each new season.

Carpet stain removal


For common household stains like spilled juice, pet accidents or messy art supplies, your first reaction is to jump right in and clean up the mess. But before you tackle cleaning any spills, stains or soils on your new carpet, determine first if it’s an oil-based stain or water based stain. Once you've established the type of stain, consult our common stain removal guides.
