What Carpet Cleaning Includes

Professional carpet cleaning from Chicago Cleaning Pros uses hot water extraction -- the industry-standard method recommended by major carpet manufacturers including Shaw, Mohawk, and Beaulieu.

The Process:

  1. Pre-inspection: assess carpet fiber type, stains, and high-traffic areas
  2. Pre-treatment: apply cleaning solution to loosen dirt and break down stains
  3. Agitation: work solution into fibers with professional brush or grooming tool
  4. Extraction: high-powered extraction pulls out water, solution, dirt, and allergens
  5. Spot treatment: targeted stain treatment on any remaining spots
  6. Post-grooming: carpet fibers set in clean, straight position for best drying

Add-On Services:

  • Pet stain and odor enzyme treatment
  • Scotchgard fabric protection application
  • Carpet deodorizer treatment
  • Stairs and hallway cleaning
  • Area rug cleaning (also available as standalone service)

Dry time: 6-12 hours with good ventilation.

For area rugs, we offer professional rug cleaning service which can include pickup and delivery.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long until carpets are dry after cleaning?+
Hot water extraction carpets are typically dry within 6-12 hours depending on humidity, airflow, and carpet thickness. Opening windows and running fans significantly speeds drying time. Chicago's humid summers (June-August) can extend drying times. We recommend planning carpet cleaning on a day you can have windows open.
Can you remove pet stains from carpets?+
We can treat and significantly reduce or eliminate most pet stains and odors using professional enzyme-based products. Results depend on how long the stain has been set, carpet fiber type, and whether the stain has penetrated the padding. Fresh stains respond much better than old, set-in stains. We will assess and be honest about realistic results before we begin.
What carpet cleaning method do you use?+
We primarily use hot water extraction (also called steam cleaning), which is the method most recommended by carpet manufacturers. Hot water and cleaning solution are injected deep into carpet fibers, then extracted with strong suction, removing dirt, allergens, and most stains. For delicate or specialty carpets (wool, berber), we may use low-moisture dry cleaning methods.
How much does carpet cleaning cost per room in Chicago?+
Carpet cleaning in the Chicago area runs $70-$90 per room for standard bedrooms and living areas. Common add-ons: stairs ($4-$6 per step), hallways ($30-$50), pet deodorizer treatment ($25-$60 per room). Most whole-home carpet cleaning jobs run $150-$450 total depending on how many rooms.
How often should carpets be professionally cleaned?+
The general recommendation is every 12-18 months for maintained carpets in homes without pets. Households with pets or young children benefit from cleaning every 6-12 months. High-traffic areas may need more frequent attention. Chicago's seasonal pollen, salt, and moisture tracked indoors makes annual professional cleaning particularly beneficial.
