Carpet Cleaning in Astoria, Queens

Carpet in Astoria is usually not in the living room. In the pre-war walk-ups, most living rooms have wood floors, and the carpet is in bedrooms, on the stairs of the two-family houses, or in a finished basement. Newer condos near the river often have carpet in the bedrooms only.

That makes the stairs the hardest part of many jobs. A carpeted inside staircase in a brick two-family house collects dirt from every person who comes in from the street. We pre-treat each step and clean the edges by hand, where a big machine cannot reach.

We bring the hoses and machines up the building stairs, move the furniture ourselves, and put it back on protective pads. You do not need to empty the room before we arrive.

First we inspect the carpet and test the fiber, so we know if it is wool, nylon or polyester. Then we pre-treat the traffic paths, the spot inside the door and any pet areas. After that we do a full extraction cleaning of the whole room.

Many Astoria apartments are heated by old radiators, and the heat can be strong in winter. Warm, dry air helps carpet dry faster, so drying in cold months is often on the shorter side of our four-to-six-hour estimate. In humid summer weather we ask you to run a fan or the air conditioner.

For renters, we often clean at move-out so the deposit is not at risk. For owners, we can clean the hall stairs and the tenant's floor in the same trip. Most homes take one to three hours, depending on how many rooms and how dirty they are.

Basement carpet in the two-family houses needs extra care, because these rooms can be damp. We take out as much water as we can and tell you honestly if a basement carpet is too old or too wet to come back.

Pets in small apartments tend to pick one favorite corner of the carpet. We look for those spots with you and treat them with an enzyme-based pre-spray before the main cleaning, so the odor does not come back on the first humid day.

Astoria has a lot of people who work from home in a corner of the bedroom. A desk chair rolling over the same patch of carpet every day crushes the pile and grinds in dirt. We give that patch its own pre-treatment, and a chair mat afterward will help it last.

If you also have a rug on a wood floor, we can take it back to our plant for a full wash. See our area rug cleaning in Astoria page for how pickup works.
