How our carpet cleaning works
- We look at the carpet, its condition and how the room is used, then pick the right treatment.
- Pre-treatment loosens embedded soil, traffic lanes and spots.
- A Rotovac Power Wand cleans deep into the fibers and pulls the soil back out.
- Our multi-step method leaves carpet that dries quickly, so there are no wet feet or musty smells.
Why it beats a rental machine
Rental carpet cleaners often over-wet carpet and leave detergent residue behind, which attracts dirt so carpet looks dingy again sooner. A professional clean removes more soil and dries faster. Read why renting a carpet cleaner won't get the job done.
Homes, stairs and businesses
We clean whole houses, stairs, hallways, apartments, vacant homes being prepared for sale, and commercial carpet. See real before and after results from Gemstone customers.
Questions about carpet cleaning
How long does carpet take to dry after cleaning?
Typically a few hours, depending on the cleaning method and humidity. Our multi-step process is designed to dry quickly.
How often should carpet be professionally cleaned?
Every 6 to 12 months for most homes, and every 6 to 9 months for most homes with pets. Busy homes with young children, several pets or heavy foot traffic may need it as often as every 3 to 6 months. See our guide to how often to clean carpet.
