I can’t recommend Steam Works enough! They recently cleaned not only our carpets, but also our couch and upholstered headboard and footboard, and we couldn’t be happier with the results! They were timely, professional, incredibly friendly, and cost-effective! It’s so nice to find a company that does great work,…

I called Tyler in need of deep cleaning a sofa and chairs. He sent Cameron and Brody. Cameron and Brody are so tough and hard working that when I came home to see how they were doing I didn’t even recognize them.. they smiled at me and shook my hand but all I saw were two absolute DOGS. Call Tyler, have them send…

We have used Steam Works multiple times and they have always done a great job of cleaning carpet and furniture. However we were disappointed this time in that they did not bring foam blocks to put under couches/chairs as they have done in the past, so they were unable to clean under them. Since we had relocated the…

We had the upholstery and area rugs in our 2 living rooms cleaned by this company. We have 2 large dogs (one shepherd who sheds a ton) and after Cam and Nick were finished in the front room, there was not a hair in sight. The furniture looked and smelled brand new. I cannot recommend this company enough!

Excellent work! They are friendly, professional, and did a spectacular job. We appreciated the trim/corner protectors they used and the shoe booties they wore. No other carpet cleaning service we have used in the past has met these standards.
