We have used this company for years and have experienced only the best service and results! Case in point was recently we had our new carpets cleaned and a red wine stain looked gone at first but re-appeared. I called and they came back out and treated it with a different sort of solution and like magic the carpet…

Downey service was outstanding! Carpet on stairs and landing were cleaned with excellent results. Puppy had used the landing to urinate a few times until he was better trained, which left an odor. The cleaning eliminated the problem. Arrived at scheduled time, was very pleasant and professional.
