They did exactly what they said they would do, when they said they would do it, for the price quoted. And they got one old rug cleaner than seemed possible. I have no idea whether the price was reasonable -- about $1.00/sq.ft. -- but it seems well worth it.

Very well. Will use again in the future.
Description of Work: Great job! We had used Stanley Steamer in the past and were not satisfied with their work nor their prices. Northcenter did an awesome job in a minimum amount of time and at very reasonable price.Courteous employees made the job going above and beyond by moving a sofa and cleaning the carpets thoroughly. The Angies list discount was also nice.

One carpet badly damaged at the corner- looked like it had gotten caught in the machine. First the plant manager tried to say the damage was pre-existing(it wasn't)- then tried to charge me for repair- then performed a very poor and amateurish repair. I then talked to Donna Heinrich who said she would look at the rug- 1 1/2 months and four phone calls later I finally reached her to check on the rug ( she never called back). She said the rug had been repaired again by someone else. This repair too was inadequate- a poor match of pattern and color. I picked up my rug, and had it repaired at the shop where I bought it. I don't think these folks care if customers come back. I won't.

Response from Northcenter Rug Co
Northcenter is sorry that this member felt she had a bad experience with NorthCenter Rug Company. We do pride ourselves on our Quality and Customer service. NorthCenter did pick up 6 rugs on this trip. We make notes on each and every rugs that comes into our shop. All rugs were in different degrees of conditions but none good. The rug in question had many problems: out of shape, surging bad, curled corner, colors bled and a few fibers out of the corner of the rug--damaged part of the reason for the curling. All rugs were orientals. She refused repair on any of the rugs at the time of pick up. When she called we stated that rug was not in good shape pre-cleaning and that cleaning didn't damage rug. Cleaning is done in a flat matter that both sides are thoroughly washed rinsed and dried. Because of the long standing service with this customer we agreed to fix the corner for no charge. The repair was done so that pattern was matched and surging fixed also for no charge. We did keep in contact with this member but matching pattern of rug is time consuming for this is done by hand. We felt that we did show we cared about customer and her rugs.

The people are very pleasant, and gave me the Angie's list discount (20%). However, they told me the day my rug would be ready, and when I arrived to pick it up, it was on the truck on the way to the store. At first they couldn't track down the truck, as the drivers didn't answer their phones. Even after they talked to the drivers they couldn't tell me how long I would have to wait. They did offer to deliver the rug to my house, but couldn't do it on days that worked for me, and also said they couldn't tell me what time of day it would be delivered on the other days. It seemed a little like the 3 Stooges. They did, in the end, give me an additional discount, which I appreciated, and I returned the next day and got the rug.

We've been using them for about 25 years. I think they are under new ownership. They do high quality work. The carpets we have done are Chinese rugs and they are very careful with them. We've been very pleased with their service. Their prices are somewhere in the middle, but I wouldn't trust some of the other ones. They have been very accommodating to our schedule and they tell us when they are coming and that is when they are here.

They come out every year and do a really good job. They are pleasant to deal with and they are on time. They even bring their own water. I take my small rugs to their shop and they are very nice. They are not very expensive and I think that they are reasonable. They are friendly and professional.

I got ahold of them early, they had an opening at a favorable time and day, we set the day. They called me when they said they would to inform me of our appointment. The two guys they sent were cool, they came (early!) when they said they would, and were done in 45 minutes! Picked up my last two (wool) rugs today - very nice. I am very pleased, will definitely use them again.

I dropped off two rugs for cleaning on April 14th. One of the guys at the store came right out to my mini-van and carried the rugs into the store for me. I had missed the cleaning truck pickup for that day, so my rugs would be going out with the next batch later that week. I was able to pick the rugs up on April 25th. Again, they loaded them ino my mini-van and the rugs looked nice and clean when we unwrapped them at home. We've tried other in-home cleaning options for these rugs, but no one has been able to get them as clean as this company.

They are very professional. They were also very honest by saying that they may not be able to remove some stains. They also advised on cleaning a rug one more time and plan on purchasing a new rug. Their prices are very competitive and they also mail out coupons at appropriate times seasonally. They mail coupons at times such as right after holidays and before or during winter when you really need to get rugs cleaned. I would use their services again in the future.
Description of Work: They have serviced rugs that I took to their place. They have never been to my house.

Very well. I dropped off/picked up the rug at their Lincoln Ave. facility. Other than a bit of a delay in getting it returned, everything went very well. The service was excellent. They called when they knew there would be a delay and called when it was done.

I was very pleased with the all of the people that I dealt with from the owner, the two pickup guys and the two delivery guys. I was equally pleased with the great condition of the returned rug. Because they are in the process of remodeling their location, I received a discount. I was surprised and delighted since I never had to go to the temporary location.
Description of Work: This was for a Saturday morning pickup of a large area rug (dirty with years of dogs tracking in mud, dog hair and dander, etc.), cleaning the rug, and delivery. Two guys came right on time to pick up the rug. They were friendly, fast and very efficient and careful moving a huge, heavy glass desk. I asked them if I needed a new pad and they said mine was still in good condition (didn't try to make an unnecessary sale). They returned the rug the following Saturday. I discovered that I had a scheduled conflict and called the owner (very personable) and requested that the rug be their first delivery and it was. They put the rug in place and it looks and smells like new.

Quick and easy. No problems at all. Promptly answered the phone; very flexible about scheduling; picked rug up as scheduled. (They give a 2-hour window.) Delivered rug as scheduled--it looks great! I was on the phone when the delivery person came, and he unrolled the rug over the rug pad as I requested.

Excellent! We have used them before and they always do a great job. Included in the cost of cleaning are pick up, delivery (when cleaned), and any minor repairs. Staff is always friendly and prices are right, especially if you need large carpets cleaned and can't throw them in the car to take to the dry cleaner.

They are great people. They roll out the carpet in front of you and let you know what will and will not come out before they do the work. They have the rugs ready when they say they will. I did not get them delivered, so it saved me 10% on the cleaning. Great work guys!

Since I wasn't certain at the time of the pick up when I wanted the rugs returned, I told the men I would call the office. I called the office on Friday morning for delivery on Saturday. Instead of going by those instructions, they became confused because someone had marked that the rugs should be delivered on Monday even though they don't deliver to my area on Mondays. They left a message on my home answering machine about the confusion and wanted a return call by 4 pm that day. Since I didn't receive the message until that evening, I had to wait an additional week for my rugs to be delivered. It was to their detriment because the dining room furniture would not have been in their way for the delivery, if they delivered the rugs the week before. Unfortunately, they had a lot of furniture to move to lay the rug in the dining room.
Description of Work: They picked up, cleaned and laid seven area rugs. Two of the rugs are 9' by 12' oriental rugs. To take the rugs, furniture needed to be moved in the living room and bedroom. I called the company at 7:30am that morning and they gave me a two hour window (9 to 11) for the pick up. The men arrived at 10 am. They were very courteous and very careful with my furniture, taking note of the position of the rug in the room. One of the gentlemen had a great sense of humor. When the rugs were returned, the men arrived during the designated two hours. Once again they were very careful with my furniture.

Although there were stains on the ivory background of the rug, overall, it came back very nicely cleaned. One stain is now somewhat lighter than before. When they scheduled,they advised calling in the a.m on pickup day to see what time. Bouchelle truck arrived at 8:35 am before I had even called. The day before the 1-week delivery date, Katie called to say the rugs weren't dry yet and wanted to change delivery by two days. Since I was going to be out of town that day, we rescheduled for the following week. So the rug was gone 2 weeks instead of 1, but having it done right was more important to me than the delivery date. The driver normally has a helper, but did not on pickup. The extremely heavy antique table sitting on the rug had to be moved to roll up. Somehow he did it. On delivery, he had a second man. One comment on the driver: I didn't really want to hear about the tank of pirhanas he keeps at home!
Description of Work: Cleaned 8 x 12 Chinese dining room rug($139.70). Additional charges for pickup and delivery ($25), relay the carpet upon delivery ($21.60) plus optional scotchguarding ($28.80). One week timing. Apparently, they sub-contract, because it was a Bouchelle driver who picked up and delivered. It would be helpful if they would provide arrival times the day before.

Fine, experienced professionals. Drove up with rug; they unloaded it for me. Paid by the size, they measured it right in front of me, wrote up an invoice, and I was out of there in 60 seconds. Rug was finished exactly on time and looked perfect. Carried it back out to car for me. Everything should be this easy.
