We know carpet gets dirty and needs cleaning, that’s our specialty.  But there are many other issues that homeowners can have with their middle-aged carpet that  causes them to lean toward replacement faster.  Issues like buckling or rippling, burn holes, or damage from animals can cause carpet to look in worse shape than it really is.  Also, some “permanent” stains can ruin the appearance of a room.  There may be hope.  Aside from being the Akron, Kent, Stow area’s leading Carpet Cleaning specialists, the team at Excel are also trained to be expert spot and stain removers, as well as general carpet repairmen.  For buckles, a re-stretch and clean can make an old carpeted room look great again.  We can also take carpet and graft into areas that were damaged (we can usually take carpet from a less visible area, like a closet or under a heat register, if you don’t have extra.  For stubborn spots we carry over 20 different spotters in our trucks, so if there’s something that will get it out, we’ve got it!  If you are a homeowner in Hudson, Kent, Stow, Tallmadge or Akron, and would like to talk to someone about carpet cleaning, tile cleaning, rug cleaning, or repair, our always pleasant Stephanie is ready to help at 330-678-5408.

Many of us know that the backbone of a small service business is their reputation.  “Word-of-mouth” is often touted as the time-tested way of marketing a carpet and upholstery cleaning business, but with the explosion of internet marketing, how does that play in?  This is where online reviews are king.  Sites like Yelp, Angieslist, Google, Yahoo and others are offering their customers an avenue to rate the companies they do business with.  This, along with a good online presence, can put a companies “Street cred” through the roof!  If you have used Excel lately, would you please leave a review on google, yahoo, bing, yelp, or angieslist?  We would really appreciate it!

We get asked this question quite a bit when talking with our new carpet cleaning customers over the phone.  The question is usually something like ”what makes you better than …?”  While we can’t speak for what our other friends in the business do in their day to day, here’s some of the small things that we feel makes Excel stand out.

- Our work is performed by either an owner of the company or a highly trained technician.  We will never send someone out unless we’re 100% sure they can do the job 100%, the firrst time.

-We will stand behind our work 100%.  You won’t hear us griping if a spot comes back after cleaning!  Just a cheerful, prompt return visit to take care of it, on us of course.

-We will examine your carpet, upholstery, tile, or rugs, before we start, and point out any areas we think may be an issue.  We won’t make any promises on cleaning that we can’t back up.

-We will never ever try to sell you something you don’t need.  High-pressure add-on sales are not our thing.  We may make a suggestion here and there on products that may be helpful to you, but that’s it.  It’s your house, you should be comfortable when we’re there!

-We stay current with trends in the industry and believe in using only the best equipment, natural-based cleaning products and methods.  We will get your carpet, furniture, tile and rugs cleaner, and get them dry faster, so you can get back to using your home fast!

So if Excel sounds like the cleaning company you’ve been looking for, we invite you to give us a call for a no hassle, over the phone estimate.  We would love to be your carpet cleaners for life!

Before inviting a quality carpet cleaning company to clean your carpet in Kent, Stow, Aurora, or Hudson Ohio, here are seven questions to ask them.

  • What method of carpet cleaning do you recommend?   This can vary by the type of carpet, setting, etc.  However, for residential carpet, Excel Fabric Care usually reccommends Truck Mounted Hot Water Extraction (steam) Carpet Cleaning
  • What type of equipment do you use to clean carpet?  We use truck mounted, van powered equipment to allow us to do the most thorough cleaning job, with the best possible drying time.  Our water is heated to over 200 degrees, to better rid your carpet of harmful pollutants and allergens. 
  • What does your equipment remove from my carpet?  Our carpet cleaning equipment doesn’t just remove more soil, but we also get the things you don’t see, the pet dander, outside smoke, car exhaust, and other pollutants that make their way inside your home over time and get trapped in your carpet (remember your carpet is like a big filter)
  • How often should I get my carpets cleaned?  This can also vary, but the average for a family is every 6-12 months.  Multiple pets, smokers, or general heavy use can increase the frequency.
  • What training has your company had in cleaning carpets?  Excel is trained in all methods of cleaning and is a certified firm in good standing with the Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoraton (IICRC). 
  • Are you a member of any trade associations?  If so, which ones?  We are active both in our local trade associations, Chamber of Commerce, and BNI (Business Networking International.) 
  • Are you certified by the IICRC?  Will you show your certificate?  Of course, just ask!
  • If you are satisfied with the answers to these questions, you’ve likely found a reputable carpet cleaning company.  For further information, or to schedule an appointment, please call 330-678-5408.  Thanks so much!

    We get this question at Excel Carpet Cleaning almost daily, “How often should I have my carpets cleaned?”  The answer can vary by client to client but we’ll stick with the EPA’s guidelines for right now.  Carpet in your home is like a large permanent furnace filter, and traps indoor air pollutants as air flows through your home.  That’s what makes carpet the healthy choice for the best Indoor Air Quality, as long as it’s maintained properly.  Have you ever forgotten to change a furnace filter for a while, and all of the sudden everyone in the house is sneezing?  Essentially the same thing.  Borrowed from the EPA’s site below, here are the recommended guidelines for residential carpet cleaning to promote indoor air health.
