We had wall to wall carpet the was filthy and stained (dogs, kids). Now it looks like new thanks to Chem Dry. We also had the same amazing result with the 2 area rugs that we had cleaned. They were wool oriental carpets and looked beautiful after cleaning. The best part..it was all dry the same day! And all the stinky odor gone! Recommend Chem Dry and I would use it again.

Gene was on time and he had a lot of good information to share. He did a thorough job cleaning our carpets and was able to remove all of the stains. Gene is friendly and fun to talk to. We were able to take advantage of a seasonal discount which saved us some money. I also liked the fact that the carpet dried really quickly. All-in all, we are very happy with the carpet cleaning.
