Great service!! I called Valley Carpet Care to clean my office at work. The person on the phone was super nice and helpful. They came out the next week and did a fantastic job. My office is connected to a cabinet shop so it gets very dusty/dirty/buggy. It feels brand new in here. The person cleaning the carpets was…

I recently hired Valley Carpet Care for the first time. Wow. The gentleman who came was one of the hardest workers I have ever seen. He did a great job on our carpets and chairs. VCC will be the only company I called to do detailed cleaning.

Great service!! I called Valley Carpet Care to clean my office at work. The person on the phone was super nice and helpful. They came out the next week and did a fantastic job. My office is connected to a cabinet shop so it gets very dusty/dirty/buggy. It feels brand new in here. The person cleaning the carpets was very nice and hardworking. He looked around, let me know how long it would take, and then got straight to work. He even left us with a branded clip magnet, which is getting tons of use. Later in the mail I received a thank you note. I'm super happy with this service. I will be recommending them to others and I will call them again in the future.
