I appreciate the thorough and detailed service I received from Distinctive Cleaning. On their first visit they were able to remove a stain in the guest bedroom other carpet cleaning services I used were unable to remove. Of course I used them again this time! Won’t try anyone else.

This company does an excellent job on cushions and rugs. I’ve used them on my dinette cushions twice and they always get the stains out and come back like new! They clean rugs equally well. They are responsive and reasonably priced. They are an energetic young couple and easy to work with! - Larry & Vicki Arnold

A member of our family works in a factory and neglected to take his shoes off before going up our stairs, hallway, and bedroom. I thought those black footprints would never come out! Alan took one look and said they could get them out. And they did! I’m adding before and after photos of one of the worst areas.

Distinctive Cleaning and Restoration did an amazing job at cleaning the carpet and getting pet stains and odors out. They did a wonderful job and asked if we wanted to try cleaning on the vinyl linoleum. We were amazed as it looked brand new. We will have them come out and do the rest as it made huge difference. So good! Thank you
