Interview with Clifford about Residential Cleaning Situations
Difficult Situation?
I once cleaned a home that was so full of cat urine. I recommended a replacement. The owner could not afford a replacement, so I cleaned it. Sometimes pet related jobs can be the hardest because they cross over from cleaning jobs into damage situations.
Before And After

Impossible Job?
Just today, I cleaned a brand new wool carpet that a dog had diarrhea on. Wool can be tricky to clean and diarrhea compounds that problem as you would imagine. We got it out because the rug was
A Few FAQs about Residential Carpet Cleaning
Are eco-friendly cleaning products safe for all rug and carpet types?
Yes, high-quality eco-friendly cleaning products are safe for both natural and synthetic fibers. They clean effectively without the harsh chemicals that can damage delicate rugs or leave residue behind in carpet fibers. They’re also a better choice for households with children, pets, or people with chemical sensitivities.
Will professional rug cleaning cause my colors to fade or bleed?
A professional cleaner will test your rug for colorfastness before cleaning begins. When proper fiber-safe products are used and drying is handled correctly, color fading or bleeding is not a concern. Using the wrong products or methods is what typically causes color damage, which is why choosing an experienced professional matters.
When to Schedule Professional Carpet Cleaning
Wall-to-wall carpets benefit from professional cleaning every 12 to 18 months under normal household conditions. Homes with pets, allergy sufferers, or high foot traffic should schedule cleaning closer to every 12 months or more frequently if needed. Regular professional cleaning also maintains your carpet warranty with many manufacturers, which typically requires documented professional cleaning at […]
Can You Use the Same Cleaning Products on Carpet and Area Rugs?
No — using standard carpet cleaning products on area rugs is one of the most common mistakes homeowners make. Many commercial carpet cleaning solutions contain optical brighteners, strong alkaline compounds, or enzymes that work well on synthetic carpet fibers but can strip natural dyes, weaken wool, or cause silk fibers to deteriorate. Natural fiber rugs […]
How Long Does Carpet Cleaning Take Compared to Rug Cleaning?
Professional carpet cleaning for a typical home in Minneapolis or St. Paul can usually be completed in a single visit lasting a few hours, depending on the square footage. Drying time is generally between two and six hours, especially with good ventilation. Area rug cleaning takes longer overall when transport is involved. Between pickup, the […]
Are your cleaning solutions hypoallergenic?
Yes! We use solutions designed for homes with allergies, so everyone can breathe easy.
