Most carpets are dry in 4–6 hours. We make multiple dry passes during the cleaning and groom the pile so air moves through it evenly. Good airflow — fans or your A/C running — helps it finish even faster.

Residential pricing is simple and by the room: one room is $149, three rooms are $229, and so on, with a $149 minimum. Hallways, closets, and stairs are priced separately as add-ons. We confirm your exact price before we start — no hidden fees.

Most of the time, yes. We locate stains with UV light, break down the proteins with an enzyme treatment, and extract sub-surface stains that have soaked into the padding. Some very old or dye-based stains can be permanent, but our technicians work to remove as much as possible.

It's usually "wicking" — a stain that soaked into the carpet backing or padding slowly rises back to the surface as the carpet dries. Our sub-surface extraction targets that deeper moisture to reduce resurfacing, but deeply saturated spots occasionally need a second pass.

We'll clean the open, high-traffic areas and carefully work around furniture. If you'd like us to move lighter items, just ask — we protect furniture legs with corner guards and tarps so nothing gets damaged.

You can scrub, but home methods can't match a truck-mounted system at 400–1500 PSI and 210–230° water — and they tend to push soil deeper into porous grout. Our technicians are trained on the equipment and on choosing and applying the right sealer for your floor.

A penetrating sealer repels water- and oil-based liquids, which prevents staining from most foods and beverages and protects grout from dirt. It keeps your floor looking clean longer and makes routine cleanup easier.

We don't recommend wax — it tends to discolor over time and can be costly to remove. A proper penetrating sealer protects the grout without the drawbacks of a wax coating.

Manufacturers generally recommend professional upholstery cleaning every 12–24 months, depending on use. Homes with kids, pets, or daily-use seating are usually on the shorter end of that range.

No. Our truck-mounted system rinses completely, so there's no sticky or crunchy residue left behind — just clean fabric that feels soft and looks refreshed. Most pieces are ready to use in 4–6 hours.

We assess your fabric — microfiber, natural fibers, leather, vinyl, or stain-resistant blends — and match the cleaning method to it. The right approach protects the material while still cleaning deeply.

Most repairs are virtually invisible when performed correctly. We color-match using donor carpet from inconspicuous areas like closets, and our experienced technicians achieve excellent, blended results in the large majority of cases.

Almost always. Repairs typically run 70–80% less than replacement — often $150–400 versus $2,000–5,000 for new carpet — and most are completed the same day with no furniture to move.

A single repair typically takes 1–2 hours, restretching a room runs about 2–3 hours, and whole-house restretching takes roughly 4–6 hours. Most jobs are completed same-day.

Yes — we provide a 30-day workmanship warranty on all repairs, along with photo documentation and care instructions so you know exactly what was done.
