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.

The communication prior to arrival was very good as well as on the day of arrival. He got out some stains I thought were set and did a good job of lightening others on some older carpets. The 'newer' carpet looks almost brand new. The extra cleaning of high traffic areas was well worth it.

Doug Nelson carpet cleaning is a real life success story. He started a few years ago with just himself. Now he has a full staff and several vans. He's been cleaning my carpets from day one. He still does a lot of the work himself. I highly recommend him. You won't be disapointed!! Give him a call!

Doug and his team are great! This is my first time using them, and I had 2 projects for them. The first, was an apartment I recently just repainted and cleaned. They came to apartment complex I own, on time, to do the rugs. What a great job they did. When I walked in on Doug he was vacuuming where the wall…

The best we’ve ever used for carpet cleaning - period! And I’m comparing this company to those we’ve used in Chicago and Naples, FL. He really cares about doing a good job - hard to find people that serious about their profession. Kudos and thank you!
