We have a granddaughter with severe asthma and even thought we had virtually new carpet, we discovered after an John Hopkins allergen test in 2005 that we had too much cat dander in the carpet for her allergies. (Even though we had not ever had a cat in our house!!!) This meant that she would be unable to visit - even at Christmas! In the fall of 2006 I found the Carpet Dry Clean ad in my phone book and read the included information. I then called and talked with Buddy - asked lots of questions which he answered fully for me. I was especially interested in the ""environmentally friendly"" and anti-bacterial part as well as the fact that the carpet would not remain wet which would cause it to harbor more unfriendly allergens. So decided to give dry cleaning a try. Last year in November Buddy came, cleaned, and we retested. We passed the John Hopkins allergen test and she was able to visit again for Christmas!! Happy Grandma, Happy Grandpa!! She had no problems with her asthma as a result of the visit, which had not been true on her last visit in 2004 prior to our carpet dry clean experience. I would highly recommend the process to anyone - especially if allergies are an issue!
Pros: Courteous, Prompt, Friendly, Good Cleaning Job
Cons: Having to move all that furniture!! Also the dry cleaning creates a little fine dust.
