Our Carpet Cleaning Process

01

Pre-Inspection

We inspect the carpet for stains, damage, and fiber type, then identify areas requiring pre-treatment.

Pre-Vacuuming

Carpets are vacuumed first to remove loose debris before wet cleaning begins.

03

Pre-Treatment

Stains, high-traffic areas, and pet spots are pre-treated with appropriate cleaning agents and allowed to dwell.

Hot Water Extraction

High-pressure hot water is injected deep into carpet fibers and immediately extracted along with dissolved dirt, allergens, and cleaning solution.

Carpet Cleaning FAQ for Chicago Homeowners

How often should Chicago homeowners get carpet cleaning?
Given Chicago's arctic winters with wind chills below -20°f, most homeowners benefit from carpet cleaning at least once a year. Ice dam formation on roofs (December–February) often makes spring or fall the optimal time to schedule service.
What home types in Chicago most need carpet cleaning?
Chicago-style greystones and brick two-flats and Victorian and Craftsman-style homes are the most common home types in Chicago and typically see the most wear. Our local pros are familiar with the exterior materials found across the metro.
How long does carpet cleaning take to dry?
Hot water extraction leaves carpets damp for 6–24 hours. Low-moisture methods dry in 1–4 hours. Running fans and opening windows accelerates drying significantly.
How often should I have carpets professionally cleaned?
Every 12–18 months for most households. Homes with pets, children, or allergy sufferers benefit from every 6–12 months.
Can you remove all stains?
Most stains respond well to professional treatment. Set-in stains, bleach damage, and permanent dyes may not be fully removable. We assess stains upfront and provide realistic expectations.
Should I vacuum before you arrive?
We vacuum as part of our process, so it's not required. However, a quick vacuum beforehand helps our technicians focus on deep cleaning rather than surface debris.
