Citrus Plus Cleaning & Sanitizing Specialists

Carpet Cleaning, Upholstery Cleaning, Ceramic Tile,

About us

We use an extremely safe and non toxic citrus-based cleaning solution and an exclusive very low moisture cleaning method to deliver the best, longest lasting results in the industry. The "Plus" in Citrus Plus represents your option to add pro-biotic sanitizer to anything we clean - a BENEFICIAL bacteria which will eliminate harmful bacteria, odors, germs, and allergens, and will continue working for several days after application, unlike traditional "disinfectants". We are pioneering the pro-biotic cleaning evolution in The Bay Area and beyond! Our solution is safe, non-toxic, and very effective at dissolving and neutralizing the contaminants and allergens in your carpet. This outstanding formula eliminates the residual problems caused by steam, shampoo, and heavy detergent cleaning so your carpets stay cleaner longer. We also clean upholstery, tile and grout, and will offer vehicle detailing soon. We begin with an initial vacuum cleaning of the rooms and baseboards using the highest quality HEPA filtered vacuum from Lindhaus. Next, we lightly pre-spray the entire carpet with our citrus cleaning solution, taking care NOT to soak your carpet or padding underneath. Then the magic begins - we utilize a rotary cleaning machine with a "dirt napper" brush and bonnet system which activates the solution, thoroughly cleans the carpet fibers and brings deeply embedded soils to the surface, where we can vacuum them away in our final step. We insist on a Lindhaus vacuum because of how well it picks up and keeps dirt and particulates IN the vacuum while the HEPA air filtration system prevents it from escaping. In this respect, the air in your home is actually being cleaned and filtered the whole time we're vacuuming. We're looking forward to serving you soon!

I think I got $30.00 off the first time I used them. It was the same service. I just got a first time customer thing. Another A+ experience. They arrive on time, they're very friendly, extremely nice. They come in and they're efficient; they do the job in a timely fashion and it's always high quality results. You don't have to worry and also, it's a natural solution if you want to get your carpets cleaned, instead of using one of these old school, chemical carpet cleaning companies. It leaves your carpets smelling like fresh citrus which is kind of nice. I think their price is an A+ for the quality you receive. I think it's a little higher than your normal industry, but it's definitely worth every penny because I think it's a higher quality result.

It's operated by a young man. I have used them once before for carpet cleaning and I liked what they did. So, I called back when I found out that they were also doing tile, grout, marble, and granite cleaning. I didn't think the price was out of line. He was here when he said he would be and they put little booties on their shoes. I was happy with the job and I didn't think the price was out of line. Somebody else might think the price was high, but I didn't. It's all expensive, but I was pleased with the job they did and he said he would be here at a certain time. He called to say he was 15 minutes away and when he came for the estimate he was right on time. I don't really have any complaints.
Description of Work: They did some tile and grout work and sealing marble and granite. They re did the grout, sealed it, and everything is nice and clean. In my bathroom on the marble counters, they polished it and sealed it. In my other bathroom, they polished and sealed it and the same in my kitchen for the granite.

Provider was polite, but did not want to come up to San Carlos to clean my carpets, so he quoted a really high price. I asked him about the $189 special for 3 rooms, hallway , probiotic and stain resistor. I was told my place is too small to make that deal worthwhile. (However, that price was less than he quoted me. ) When I brought that up to him, he said there was a minimum size house required for that deal, but I read the entire deal to him from the listing and there is no such statement on the deal or the "small print". He admited that he would not come up to San Carlos for a small job like this (3 rooms and a hallway) unless he had other jobs booked in the area. After he told me 5 or 6 times how this wasnt going to work an the job was too small, I told him that since he did not want to do the job and would not honor the coupon special price, that I would find someone else, who wanted to honor their deals on Angies List! He may have a lot of "A" ratings if you live in Santa Clara, but dont expect him to go elsewhere on the peninsula. Citrus Plus Cleaning gets an "F" from me, for poor customer service, misrepresentation and fradulent coupon offers. (This is my first bad review ever!)
Description of Work: NOTHING BUT TALK!. All he did was tell me how I was too far away, my house was too small, (3 rooms and a hall) and the coupon did not apply to my case.

Response from Citrus Plus Cleaning & Sanitizing Specialists
[member name removed], I'm sorry about your frustration. This deal should not have been offered in [member information removed], and I just hung up with Angie's LIst to make the correction. We have to draw a geographical line as to how far we can travel to serve a client and still stay in business. I was also trying to explain to you that you were asking for 2 rooms (1 regular room and 2 1/2 rooms) and a hall (+ an area rug that's not included in the deal) so you'd be paying TOO MUCH for that if you paid $199, because 2 rooms + hall is only $155 standard pricing. I was advocating for you, and I'm sorry there was a misunderstanding - the last thing I wanted to do was make you upset. I wish you well.

The service was prompt and professional. The carpet appeared the cleanest after the service. The chair still had a bad smell after the service, although it was better. The three rugs were cleaner, but still had areas that had not come clean.

It went very well. The last three carpet cleaners we have had have not done a good job and the stains come up again very soon.It hasn't happened this time. I would certainly call them again.
Description of Work: The provider was on time. He measured each area to be cleaned, vacuumed, then started the cleaning process. It smelled very good, was not overly wet, just a little damp. The carpet looked brand new. We had some very dark paths down the hall. I didn't think it was going to get clean, but it did. It is now a month and a half later and it still looks clean. I am very pleased.

The technician did a great job, I could immediately smell, feel and see the difference after he started the cleaning process. We have a lot of traffic in our home, with kids and pets and it was impressive how clean the carpets were following the service. We have used many carpet services in the past, this is one that we will plan to use moving forward.

I bought an Angie's List deal as a gift for a friend who has old, old carpets. Craig was incredibly responsive, and set up an appointment with my friend quickly. The carpets look and smell better (they are very old, so there is only so much that they can do). My friends were very pleased (and loved how good it smelled). Very pleased!

They’ve done a lot of work for me. They are great! They don’t have to have a big truck. They use a solution on the floor so it’s convenient to use for a condominium or an apartment. They leave the carpets extremely clean, dry, and smelling great! I will definitely hire them again.

They were Berber carpets and he still did a good job! I believe the cost was around $125 which is not expensive at all considering how clean he got them! They have done a lot of cleanings for us. Those guys are fantastic! I will always choose them over anyone else. For one, they use non-toxic solutions and it smells good. I have been absolutely amazed with how clean they can get carpets. Secondly, they will explain things. They are very patient to questions and will give you an assessment ahead of time.

I had bought an angie's list deal which was carpet cleaning for one room. I have only one carpeted room in my house and so it was perfect. However, the vendor was hoping that other services would be added and the low advertised price was only an entree. When i told him I had only one room, he said it was too big and added more to the fee even though there was never a room size advertised. For the record, my room is 220 SF, not that huge. He then tried to get me to buy rug cleaning, upholstery cleaning, etc. all of which I refused. He did come and clean my carpet for the advertised price plus the extra for the 'large room'. In all fairness, I think he lost money on my business because the advertised price was so low. On the other hand, I think putting up a price and expecting to bump it up based on customers choosing to buy other services is not a good practice and borders on scamming customers in my opinion. They came, they cleaned, they were professional, they did a great job, but I was put off a little by their expectation of getting additional business.

Response from Citrus Plus Cleaning & Sanitizing Specialists
Hi (Member name removed), Thank you for your feedback, and the positive grade you gave our company. I wanted to respond to your concerns about us offering you additional service, and the disclosure of allowable room sizes, and the price for over sized rooms in this deal. 1. You wrote that the ad did not mention anything about room size, and I wanted to point out that we mention this in the very first line of the ad - "CitruSolution Carpet & Upholstery Cleaning, an A-rated service provider on Angie's List, is offering premium carpet cleaning for one room (up to 200 square feet) for $25. This service is normally priced at $50, saving Angie's List members 50%." We also disclose this in "The Fine Print" section of the ad, and it's also posted on our website's pricing page. I'm sorry if you missed this, but we do make every effort to be completely up front, honest, and transparent with our pricing and terms. I'm almost certain that we are the only carpet cleaner in this area that posts their prices on line, without having to enter any information, etc. 2. I am terribly sorry that you felt that by our offering you additional service when you scheduled your appointment that we were bordering on "scamming" you. I can assure you that this is absolutely not the case. This industry has a terrible reputation for "up-selling" and dramatically increasing the price the day of the appointment, and we make every effort we can not to be associated with that type of practice by: a. Posting our prices, terms and conditions clearly on our website. b.) Only offering ALL INCLUSIVE service, meaning we do not UP CHARGE for pre-spotting, high traffic areas, stain removal, odor removal, protection, etc. etc. That is the practice that has earned this industry a horrible reputation, and I truly be we are very successful because we avoid it and treat our customers honestly, fairly, and transparently. I have to explain / defend our prices in most initial client calls because it seems at first look that we are much higher than our competitors, when actually, we are usually LESS expensive. The difference is that the lower priced quotes usually don't include the services you'd need or want, and they are hoping to lure you in with the artificially low price, then increase it the day of service based on the condition of your carpet and you needing "pre- spotting, high traffic area cleaning, deep cleaning, stain remover, deodorizer, scotch guard, disinfection, etc. etc. etc.). I think it's also wise to consider that there are major differences in cleaning methods and solutions, and the lowest price usually corresponds to the lowest grade of value / service, as with most other products and services. We do not want to position ourselves as the cheapest service, but rather the best overall value for our clients. 3. We absolutely do hope that our customers will hire us for additional services beyond what was purchased in this deal, and I think that's a fair expectation of any business. I also think its customary and fair business practice to offer additional services. You may not have known we do upholstery cleaning or area rugs if I had not asked. Just about every business I know does this, from McDonald's offering you an apple pie with your order, your server at a restaurant offering you a dessert or coffee after your meal, Apple offering "Apple Care" with your Iphone, etc. As long as the offer is done without pressure, and done genuinely to offer the customer added value, or a better experience, I personally see it as excellent business practice. I sincerely apologize if you felt any pressure or sensed disappointment in my voice when I offered you more service and you declined. That was not my intent at all. You are absolutely correct in that we lost money on performing this service, and the $10 additional we charged for your 20 extra square feet room was the ONLY revenue we generated on your service. That's the risk a business takes in advertising such an offer, and I accept that. We tried to avoid this by putting a "3 Room Minimum Service Requirement" in the deal, but Angies List would not allow that ,and I understand and accept why. The reality of this business is that we break even at about $100 / appointment due to the time and expense in travel, equipment set up, break down, and maintenance of the equipment between jobs. It's probably closer to $150-$200 for steam cleaners. This is why we have minimum service requirements - we want to stay in business, and be profitable. I hope that my response has helped ease your sentiments, and improved your perception of our company and business practices. Please know that I"m always available to discuss any concerns of any of our clients "off line" or on the phone - the business phone # (650-919-3996) is my cell #, and I'm available whenever our clients need me. I wanted to respond to your feedback online in this forum so that Angie's List members could hear our side of the story, and know that we absolutely disclose max room sizes, prices associated with overage, and all of our terms and conditions in every deal we offer, and on our website. Our reason for being and model for sustainability is to provide an exceptional service and customer experience at a fair price, and earn the privilege of being your preferred carpet and upholstery cleaner for life. Most Sincerely, Craig Radley, President CitruSolution Carpet & Upholstery Cleaning - Silicon Valley www.CitrusCleansCarpetBetter.com 650 919 3996
