Business highlights
50 years of trusted experience
Services we offer
Steam carpet cleaning, upholstery cleaning, tile & grout cleaning, fiber protection, pet damage repair, odor control, water extraction, carpet repair and re-stretching & stain removal.
The experience was great. We were scheduled within a few days of my call. The work was done quickly and very well. Our carpet is very old and worn so I was not expecting it to look new but it certainly looked better than I thought such an old carpet could look after one cleaning.
Description of Work: Cleaned stairs, hallway and four bedrooms.

It went really well, from the initial phone call to schedule an estimate to the actual work being done. Some companies wanted to do an estimate over the phone and asked for the square footage of each room. I felt more comfortable with someone coming over to look at what needed to be done, so there would be no surprises. The price was reasonable and I appreciated Byron's punctuality and the good results of the cleaning job. I have given his name to 2 of my neighbors :-)
Description of Work: Byron (company owner) came over to give us an estimate to clean the carpet in 3 bedrooms and one large area rug in the family room. He showed up right on time and gave us the estimate for the job. I called his office and spoke with his wife who does the scheduling. Byron arrived promptly at 8:00am and he was accompanied by a young worker. They worked quickly and completed the job in one hour. I was very satisfied with the work. Byron is very professional, friendly and has been in the business for 30+ years. I will definitely use this company again. They are reliable and do excellent work.

The pump in the washer was leaking and my tenants failed to tell me they were mopping up the water each time the washer was used. 3 weeks after the washer was fixed, they informed me the carpet near the washer was black! I've used Rug Bug before and was pleased with their work, so I called and again they did a great job w/i days of calling them (this was not an emergency request for work). Thank you Rug Bug, the area you cleaned, blends in perfectly with the rest of the carpet.
Description of Work: PullED up carpeting, replaced pad in one area, replaced metal strip, cleaned and treated with MILGO.

I.called The Rug Bug and spoke with Mary, who was very friendly and helpful. Mary sent Byron out to give me an estimate, then I spoke with Mary to set up a day and time. Bryon arrived with Curtis on time. Curtis did the actual cleaning. He did a good job and was able to get some high traffic areas looking great. I was very happy with his work. I would use the Rug Bug again.
Description of Work: I had 3 bedrooms and the living room traffic areas, and the complete family room and stairway cleaned.

It went great. Showed up right on time - we did remove a bunch of furniture ahead of time so he was done in quick order. I had requested a sofa to be cleaned but that didn't get on the work order so have to reschedule - but other than that - will definitely use them again. My son even noticed the carpet "feels clean!"

Overall, it went very well. When I tried to get a quote using the link on their website, it didn't work. I had to call them to get a quote and schedule the service. It went really well after that. Very professional and courteous.
Description of Work: Steam carpet cleaning for 3 rooms and hallway. Ensured all spots on the carpets were removed. Moved furniture around to clean carpet under furniture. After cleaning under a coffee table, put blocks under the table to help air out.

Mary was very friendly and easy to work with when scheduling the appointment. Two workers showed up right on time, one experienced and one novice. My furniture and other items were handled with care, and the experienced person gave clear instruction to the novice about how to handle items carefully. The work was done quickly, and while the one spot in the back bedroom did not come out completely, much more of that room needed to be cleaned than was requested and this was done at no extra charge.
Description of Work: Off-white rugs were cleaned in the bathroom where there had been a leak, and in the living and dining areas and hallway, and one spot in the back bedroom.

I found the Rug Bug on Angies List. I called and received a not-to-exceed estimate and set up an appointment. The morning of the appointment they called to tell us that they would be about 1/2 hour late. They arrived at the revised time and completed the job quickly.

I was moving into this home and the carpets had pet and food stains. My experience from start to finish was very good. They were accommodating to my schedule, punctual and professional. The gentleman who did the cleaning took special care to protect my new laminate floors. The carpeting is older but most of the stains came out and my carpets looks so much better . There were no high pressure sales gimmicks and their price was less than half of the estimate given by a nationwide carpet cleaning service.
Description of Work: This company cleaned the carpets in my dining room, living room, family room, and one bedroom.

WHOW! I've used Coit Cleaners for the past 5 years and they've returned to re-do their work several times, because dirt patterns were still visible which was an inconvenience for my tenants to have a carpet wet for 2 days and the carpet's color looked dull. So, I decided to try someone else out and selected The Rug Bug because of their A rating...the carpet is now bright, no dirt pattern, stains gone and for less than Coit Cleaners' cost. I will be a returning customer, year after year from this point forward to the The Rug Bug. Thank you!

I called a week in advance and got a cost estimate on the phone based on my approximation of the size of the rooms. The man was there on time. I have 2 large golden retrievers who had accidents when pups, and who spend a lot of time outdoors as well as indoors. I have not had successful cleanings with large national firms. This was the first carpet cleaning experience that I am completely satisfied with and will definitely stick with this firm.
Description of Work: Deep steam cleaned very light oatmeal colored carpeting in 3 rooms and a hall. The man described very clearly what he was doing and why, and explained that there may be "yellowing" in spots as the carpet dried, and to be sure to call back if that happened and he would come back and take care of those spots. 5 days later, the carpet dried quickly, there is no "yellowing", and I am very happy.

The lady who did the scheduling was pleasant. She quoted a maximum price of $100. They were able to do it right away. The two men came on time. They didn't identify or introduce themselves, but their hats had the company name. The carpet wasn't very dirty, except in one spot. That spot didn't come out. In the bedrooms, it looked good when they left, but after it dried, there were several yellow stains that I don't think were there before. Also, the carpet was quite wet in places. I was worried about the wood floors underneath. I left the heat at 70 for 10 hours, but they were still wet, so I used fans for 24 hours more. The carpet on the stairs was old, but came out nicely. The house was vacant and I hadn't mentioned that to the lady on the phone, so I thought the price might be a little less, but it was the full $100. There was one piece of furniture in the house, an armoir that, as it turned out, barely fit through the doorways. I wanted to move it out so they could do the whole floor, so I asked one of the men if he would help. He said usually when he moves furniture the walls end up with holes in them. I took a chance anyway, since I didn't have anyone else to help me move it. Well, he was telling the truth. No actual holes were made, but when the armoir was stuck under two different door ways he wasn't gentle. He kept banging it through, when finesse would have been better. A lot of paint was scraped, the threshhold was nearly torn off, the wood floors were scraped, and I think he broke the side panel on the armoir, although I don't have proof. In some ways, he was helping me move this as a favor, so I can't complain too much, but I think carpet cleaners do often move furniture to clean around it. If you have furniture that might need moving, I wouldn't recommend this guy.
Description of Work: Cleaned the carpet in two small bedrooms, a short hall, a set of stairs and a good-sized family room.
