Solutions For Every Environment
Tailored Cleaning Options
Specialty Treatment Options
Deodorizer Treatment
Recommended for rugs, carpets, and upholstered furniture, deodorizer treatments help neutralize common household odors and leave surfaces smelling fresher.
Moth Repellent
Moth repellent does not kill moths, larvae, or eggs. Instead, it helps make wool fibers less appealing to these pests by altering their taste. This treatment is highly recommended for wool rugs and wool carpeting.
Microban® Sanitizer
Microban® helps neutralize odor-causing bacteria and fungi while cleaning and sanitizing treated surfaces. It is safe for use on natural and synthetic fibers and is often recommended for water-damaged rugs and carpets.

Have Questions About Specialty Cleaning Treatments?
Is carpet protector worth adding after professional cleaning?
Yes. Carpet and upholstery protectors help resist spills, stains, and dry soil, making routine maintenance easier and helping fibers stay cleaner between professional cleanings.
What is the best treatment for pet odors in carpet or upholstery?
A deodorizer treatment is often recommended to help neutralize common household and pet-related odors. Our team can recommend the best solution based on the source of the odor.
Do I need moth repellent for my wool rug?
If you own wool rugs or wool carpeting, moth repellent can provide an additional layer of protection by making the fibers less attractive to moths and other fabric-damaging pests.
When should Microban® sanitizer be used?
Microban® is commonly recommended when sanitizing surfaces affected by bacteria, fungi, odors, or certain water-damage situations.
How can I keep my carpet cleaner between professional cleanings?
Protective treatments such as Teflon® Advanced Protector, combined with prompt spot treatment using products like Spot Out, can help reduce staining and maintain appearance between professional cleaning appointments.
