If it’s not right, we make it right.
Your complete satisfaction is extremely important to us. We promise to do the very best job possible. And if you’re not completely satisfied with our work, we’ll come back and re-clean any areas you request.
If spots return within one month, we’ll come back at no charge.
And the price we quote is the price you pay: upfront and transparent, with no surprise charges added after the fact.
Re-cleaning must be requested within one week. Returning spots must be reported within one month.
Truck-mounted hot water extraction
- Loosens soil with a safe pre-conditioner, then rinses with a hot pH-balanced solution.
- Extracts moisture before it reaches the backing: no over-wetting, no shrinkage.
- Removes dust mites and allergens at the source, leaving carpets essentially residue-free.
- Safe for wool, STAINMASTER®, and all common synthetic fibers.
