Residential Carpet Cleaning in Somonauk, IL

We Deep Clean Your Residential Carpet

At A Guy In A Truck, we know that freshly cleaned carpet can make your whole home feel better—and that’s exactly what we’re here for. We provide high-quality, professional carpet cleaning for homes in Somonauk and the surrounding Fox Valley area. Whether it’s everyday dirt, pet messes, or stains that have been around longer than you’d care to admit, we’ll give your carpet the deep clean it’s been waiting for—and get it looking better than it has in years.


Our multi-step cleaning process goes well beyond the surface. Using a powerful, truck-mounted system and proven methods, we clean deep down to the carpet backing, lifting out the dirt, allergens, and buildup that regular vacuuming can’t reach. The result? Softer carpet fibers, brighter rooms, and a home that smells as fresh as it feels.



As a small, family-run business located in Somonauk, we care about doing things the right way. That means showing up on time, treating your space with respect, and making sure you feel comfortable from start to finish. You’ll always know who’s on the way, and we’ll make sure everything’s good to go before we get started.

Whether it’s your first cleaning or your fifth, we’ll deliver our best work every time, treating your home like it’s our own. Because we’re not just here to clean your carpet. We’re here to help it feel like home again.

Our 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.
