Xtreme Dry Carpet Cleaning

I’ve been sitting here trying to figure out how to make a carpet cleaning review sound interesting. I mean, it’s carpet?! It’s not exactly something that we really think about, much less discuss with any regularity. That is, until you actually need to have something cleaned… then you’ve got options-​o-​plenty and some potentially costly decisions to make.
So, let’s start there. I really want to do this one justice because I think it can save people some time and money depending on their circumstances. While you’re reading, you may want to keep in mind, this particular job was what I’m sure most would consider a worse case scenario.
I recently prepped a clients investment property for sale and he had a few decisions to make. The biggest of which was whether we should replace the carpet in this home or try and have it cleaned first. The difference in cash would’ve been thousands…
As you can see by the ‘before’ photos below, I honestly didn’t think there was much hope for this carpet when I first spoke with Ashton at Xtreme Dry. He was gracious enough to work on a couple test spots before giving us his opinion. He explained we were flirting with more of a restoration than a cleaning, but he accepted the challenge. To say we were impressed with initial test areas would be an understatement. The decision was made to give this process a try rather than face the aforementioned replacement costs.
I simply can’t articulate how bad this carpet originally looked. It truly looked like a crime scene. It would be no exaggeration whatsoever to suggest this carpet looked like a couple junkies shot-​up and died on it. It was truly that bad… just years of wear. Anyway, you get the picture.
Flash forward 24 hours and you’d never know you were standing in the same home. This was truly a case of money having been well spent. It’s also a glowing testimonial to the power of on-​line reviews. Like you, (right now) I read about Xtreme Dry on Unilocal and decided to give them a call.
Ashton and his team did an exceptional job on this home. He and his crew were professional, courteous and attentive. My wife and I will not hesitate to recommend them to anyone in the future. In fact, we plan to schedule them to give our own home a once-​over very soon.
I won’t attempt to explain the difference between this particular process and traditional carpet shampooing, but as I understand it, traditional carpet cleaning/​shampooing is a wet process and it creates more of a muddy environment within the carpet. This is why stains can return, etc. This process uses a textured material more akin to sand, allowing for a cleaner, dry extraction.
It’s a truly impressive process. Check out the pics below. Big thanks to Ashton and the Xtreme Dry crew. If you take a look at my reviews, you’ll see I’m a hard guy to get 5 stars out of. They earned this one!

Be sure and follow me on Unilocal for other Myrtle Beach reviews. I live here so chances are if I like something, you’ll dig it too. See that little icon under my name to the left that says, «Follow this person on Unilocal?»…click that! We’ll be buds! Seriously, do it. I’m shallow and need that sort of validation in my life.

Very professional owner and employees. They came in and cleaned our carpets when we first moved in our house, and they did great with their work and time. I appreciated that they worked me in, especially with it being the holidays. I’m definitely going to use them for my rug maintenance.

Olé Faithful, my 14 year old is still at it. I called Ashton and he made an immediate appointment for me. I brought Ashton into the back bedroom, where, although you could barely see the stains, the aroma was pungent.
The dry cleaning process was used by Ashton, again. It took a very short period of time to do the bedroom, hallway and living room. Immediately afterwards, the dry carpet was ready for walking on.
My home was left smelling sweet, carpets were clean and dry and the price was fair and reasonable. Ashton knows his business and is very professional and polite. I am so glad I have him. Again, another 5 star treatment!!!
