This is my second service from A+ Carpet Cleaning - Portland. We moved from out of state and wanted the carpets cleaned before we arrived and they were amazing to work with, remotely. After we arrived we discovered the return air filter hadn't been changed (maybe in years) so had them out for duct cleaning. This is the first time, ever, that I have turned on a home heater and it not smell! They are my new go to for all the services they offer.

Kelly, we’re glad we could help tackle those old pet stains!

I was referred to A+ Carpet Cleaning by my realtor, and they were amazing and exceeded all my expectations! Chantal was amazing to work with on estimates and scheduling (prompt, professional, knowledgeable, and very warm/kind) and Everest was amazing too! He was very communicative about his arrival time, the scope of work, asked me to review and check his work to ensure I was happy, and did a beautiful job on my moroccan wool rugs, and bedroom carpets. So happy I found this company!

Thank you so much for taking the time to share this thoughtful review, Ashley! We’re so glad your realtor connected you with us, and it means a lot to hear that Chantal and Everest took such good care of you from start to finish. We’ll be sure to pass along your kind words to both of them. It was a pleasure helping with your rugs and carpets, and we’re thrilled you’re so happy with the results. We hope to work with you again! Warmly, the A+ Team
