Carpet Cleaning

Swimming Upstream in the Carpet Cleaning Industry

The carpet cleaning industry has long been about competing on price with the assumption that pretty much everyone is doing the same thing.

In order to do that I have looked into the operations of many different companies to gain knowledge and perspective on industry standards and practices, and I also studied and became certified

Redefining a 5-Star Carpet Cleaning Customer Experience

When I began my carpet cleaning business I set out on a mission to provide an undeniable 5-star customer experience from start to finish. My goal was not to provide one-time service competing with everyone else on price, but to create loyal life-long customers that appreciated the value of my service as much as I appreciated their business.

Spanning the Globe

Spanning is a great word! I’m just realizing that. So what do we span the globe for? Well what else: Mind-blowing scientific breakthroughs in carpet cleaning formulations. I’m talking about revolutionary stuff like thymol-infused pre-spray, active film technology, and T2H hybrid polymers. It’s the stuff we all dream of at night (you know, when you’re not dreaming on a winter’s day about California: The Mamas & The Papas 1965). Had I not been destined to
