Yes! Deep cleaning is our specialty. We use hot water extraction , also called steam cleaning, which is the most thorough carpet cleaning method available. It pushes hot water deep into the carpet fibers and immediately pulls it back out, taking all the dirt, allergens, bacteria, and stains with it.
This is not a surface clean. We go deep, and the results show it. Check our before and after gallery to see real results from real Carlisle homes.
We clean much more than just carpets! We handle rugs, tile and grout, brick, LVP vinyl floors, and upholstered furniture all in one visit if needed. This means you do not have to hire multiple companies for different surfaces. We bring everything with us and take care of it all.

While hot water extraction does remove soil, it tends to leave behind oils and other grime that have attached to the carpet fibers. Hot water extraction uses soaps, which, if not completely removed from your carpets, will attract dirt quickly, making your carpets look dull and dirty shortly after they are cleaned. Encapsulation does not use soapy chemicals so no soapy residue left behind to attract that dirt! With no soapy residue, your carpets stay cleaner, longer! Hot water extraction uses a lot of water. This can not only lead to damaging the backing of your carpet, possibly even voiding your warranty and limiting the lifespan of your carpet, it also takes hours, sometimes even days to dry. With our VLM encapsulation method, the drying times are 3 hours or less, generally even as little as 30 minutes to an hour.
