Our Residential Carpet Cleaning Process

  • 1: Walk-Thru

    We do this with every customer to address any areas of concern, take measurements, determine the best cleaning process for the carpet and set clear expectations of results prior to cleaning. (A black light will also be used to identify pet areas to be treated.)

  • 2: Prep & Protection

    We use floor/corner protection & our Orange Seal-A-Door covering as needed.

  • 3: Vacuum

    We will vacuum using our HEPA vacuum so dust and any harmful particulates do not become airborne. This is also done to lift the pile of the carpet to prepare it for pre-spray and cleaning.

  • 4: Pre-Spray

    We use a pre-spray to break down any soiling or sticky substances left behind by spills or foot traffic that were not removed with vacuuming.

  • 5: Scrubbing

    We use a Counter Rotating Brush Machine (CRB) to work in the pre-spray, lift the carpet pile and pull out deeply embedded soil from the backing of the carpet. This step helps to restore the original look and feel of your carpet pile.

  • 6: Cleaning

    We clean using a truck mounted Hot Water Extraction System (commonly referred to as "steam cleaning") and specialty cleaning tools along with cleaning agents designed specifically for your carpet type.

  • 7: Carpet Protector (Optional)

    This is an optional add-on. A protector like Scotchgard is applied to the carpet after the cleaning. This application helps protect the carpet fibers from wear, staining and can actually improve your vacuuming efficiency. Your carpet will look great and last longer!


    This application (on wall-to-wall installed carpet only) also includes a 12-month Spot & Spill Warranty. For more information, check the FAQ section below.

  • 8: Grooming

    As needed, we will rake through the carpet to lift the pile and help the carpet to dry more evenly.
