Answer guide

Is Professional Carpet Cleaning Worth It?

For most homes, yes. Cleaning gets out the grit vacuuming misses and lifts many stains, for a lot less than new carpet. It won't fix wear, fading or damage.

Short answer

For most homes, yes. It gets out the dirt and grit vacuuming leaves behind and lifts many stains, for a lot less than new carpet. It can't fix wear or damage, and a good cleaner tells you that up front.

When it's worth it

Gray traffic lanes, spills and dirt you can see clean up well, and pet smell in the carpet itself usually does too. Carpet makers recommend regular professional cleaning as part of normal care.

When to replace instead

If the fibers are worn flat, the backing is loose, or there are burns and tears, cleaning won't fix that. We'll tell you if that's what we see.

Common questions

Does cleaning add years to carpet?

Getting grit out helps carpet keep its look, since grit is what grinds the fibers down. Nobody can promise a number of years.

Can cleaning fix damaged carpet?
