When stubborn dirt and stains resist your every cleaning effort, it's time to bring in the pros. A professional carpet cleaning service has the knowledge and equipment it takes to remove set-in stains, reduce allergens and mold, and even help increase indoor air quality.

While most professionals can get the job done, it can be beneficial to hire a carpet cleaning service near you because:

  • They can be on-site quickly if you need your carpets cleaned before a showing, before or after house guests, and before or after a move.
  • They may be able to save you money particularly if they tend to charge a trip fee.
  • They may be more familiar with typical dirt in your area which means they are better equipped to handle tough stains and may be able to recommend ways to help keep your carpet cleaner longer.

The cost to clean carpet is typically between $120 and $240, but that's a small price to pay when you consider that the cost to replace is far greater.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to have a carpet cleaned?

The price for professional carpet cleaning ranges between $120 and $230. Most services charge by square footage or offer flat rates by the room. Expect to pay $0.20 to $0.40 per square foot, or $25 to $75 per room.

Prices also change based on the cleaning method used. A simple dry-cleaning ranges between $75 and $350, while carbonated cleaning goes from $125 to $550 depending on size. The carpet type and degree of stains also affect costs.

Is it better to shampoo or steam clean carpets?

Most carpet cleaning experts recommend steam cleaning over shampoo.

Steam:

  • Relatively deep clean
  • Protects the carpet fibers
  • Keeps warranty intact

Shampoo:

  • Deep clean
  • Works well for heavy stains
  • Can lead to carpet damage
  • You'll lose your warranty.

Is professional carpet cleaning worth it?

While you can buy or rent your own carpet cleaning equipment, hiring a professional is worth the investment. Experts use industrial equipment that cleans more deeply and keeps your carpet fresh longer. Regular professional cleaning can increase the lifespan of your carpet by up to 10 years.

How can I find the right carpet cleaning service?

Finding the right pro is easier if you know what questions to ask when interviewing for the job:

  • What cleaning method do you use?
  • How long do you need to complete the job?
  • Are you insured and is your insurance active?
  • Can you come to my home for a project quote?
  • Are there any hidden costs I should know about?
  • How long will my carpet need to dry after you're finished?
  • Do you offer a guarantee for your work?
