What customers said about upholstery cleaning
Donald wS very professional. I'm very happy with the way he did job. Send him back ANYTIME 😊
Nelson carpet cleaning did an excellent job. I had them clean my upholstery and steam clean my ceramic tile floor. They did a great job with both. Doug is very nice and knowledgeable.
Keyvion was outstanding. So professional and really worked hard to remove some very tough stains!
Frank did an excellent job of removing an oil and water stain on our linen covered footboard. He was prompt, professional and efficient. Kandice was very helpful in scheduling the appointment as we had to change the date several times. We would definitely use them again!
Jordan was prompt to arrive. Talked with me about what was being cleaned and cared for. Tile demo did lead to a full cleaning. He took care in advising not to walk in areas. Thank you.
Eric was great! Arrived early. Was efficient yet thorough cleaning our dog hair-infested couch.
