Floor Repairs Department
We specialize in a wide range of carpet repair services, including Carpet stretching (to remove wrinkles and bumps), Seam repairs, Burn or stain patching, Carpet reinstallation after water damage, and Threshold repairs where carpet meets another flooring type.
Carpet repairs are ideal for smaller, localized damage, like burns, stains, or loose seams. If your carpet has extensive damage, especially after water damage or years of wear and tear, a replacement might be a more cost-effective option. We can assess your carpet and advise you on the best course of action.
You can schedule an appointment by calling our office or by filling out a GET A FREE ESTIMATE form, on our website. We will request photos of the affected area(s) or arrange a time for one of our technicians to come out and assess the damage.
Yes! We frequently repair carpets damaged by pets. This includes patching areas chewed, scratched, or soiled, and addressing any odor issues associated with pet accidents.
Most carpet repairs can be completed within a few hours, depending on the extent of the damage. For larger repairs, like significant water damage restoration, the process may take longer.
We aim to make the repair as seamless as possible. If we use a patch, we will try to match the color and texture closely, but depending on the age and wear of your carpet, there might be slight variations. However, we take great care to ensure the repair is as discreet as possible.
Yes, we offer professional carpet stretching services to smooth out any wrinkles, bumps, or waves in your carpet. This not only improves the appearance but also extends the life of your carpet by preventing further damage.
The cost varies based on the type and extent of the damage. Basic repairs, such as seam fixes or small patches, may begin at $100 before tax, while more involved repairs, like stretching or reinstallation, may cost more. We offer estimates via email (after reviewing photos) or an in-house FREE estimate, so you know the price upfront.
Cleaning Department
We offer Hot Water Extraction (HWE), Very Low Moisture (VLM), and Dry-Cleaning methods to accommodate various carpet types and cleaning needs.
HWE, also known as steam cleaning, involves using hot water and a cleaning solution to deeply clean carpets, extracting dirt and grime with powerful suction.
VLM cleaning uses minimal water and special cleaning agents to clean carpets, resulting in faster drying times. This method of cleaning is typically used by commercial facilities so they can continue their operation without concern of carpet drying times after cleaning.
Dry Cleaning involves using a specialized compound or powder that is spread on the carpet and then worked into the fibers. The compound absorbs dirt and grime and is then vacuumed up.
We recommend professional carpet cleaning every 6-12 months, depending on traffic and usage. For homes with pets or high traffic, it is recommended on a quarterly basis. (Many manufacture warranties on carpet require professional cleaning to maintain the warranty)
Yes, we use eco-friendly, non-toxic solutions that are safe for both children and pets.
Yes, we offer specialized treatments to effectively remove pet stains and odors.
We use advanced stain removal techniques and products to tackle tough stains like wine, coffee, and more.
Yes, we provide stain protection treatments to help prevent future stains and make cleaning easier.
Please vacuum your carpets thoroughly and remove any small items or breakables. Move any furniture you would like cleaned under. Additionally, leaving space in your driveway is recommended so the technician can easily access your home or business.
No, due to liability concerns, we do not move the furniture. Please move any items you want cleaned underneath before our technicians arrive.
Drying times can differ depending on the type of carpet, and the current state of the weather, but we suggest allowing 6-8 hours for it to dry completely. We advise against moving furniture during this period as the carpet is in a delicate state. It is safe to walk on the carpet while it is still damp.
Regular vacuuming, prompt spot cleaning, and using doormats can help maintain your carpets. We can also provide additional tips during your service appointment.

We recommend having your ceramic tiles professionally cleaned every 12-18 months, depending on the level of foot traffic and use. If your Grout lines begin to darken and look dirty, it’s time to schedule your next cleaning!
Regular sweeping, mopping with a pH-neutral cleaner, and promptly cleaning spills can help maintain your ceramic tiles. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
