Interactions were good, but they had to come back and re-do a large area. They said it was due to the type of carpet and type of cleaner, that it typically leaves stripes in the carpet, and it did. Also, the carpet was extremely wet and took several days to dry out. It looked better than before, but not as clean as I hoped.

Golden Bear Cleaning was on time and very professional. Some stubborn pet stains cleaned up very well. Drying time took longer than I expected. After drying, there was some area with "brown out". Jeff was quick to respond to my call and returned soon after to fix the problem.
Description of Work: Carpet cleaned in 5 areas including steps.

They do an excellent job, clean up after themselves well, and spots never come back. If there's a little coffee spill or something like that they'll come back out and get it up quickly. I'll continue using them and would highly recommend them to everyone for carpet & upholstery cleaning!

Golden Bear was the only company I called that could come out the same day to clean a fresh stain of carrot baby food. They did a great job and were able to clean a couple of other small, high-traffic areas for me and still stay within the minimum charge.

We bought the house in August and intended on having the carpet replaced. Some areas were very dirty (included the stairwell). Instead, we decided to see how it cleaned up. Two men were here for a few hours, and the finished product was great. I was thinking of replacing my throw pillows on my couches because with two young kids and two dogs they looked and smelled pretty bad. Even those look (and smell!) like new. Because of the dogs, we steam clean often, and I will be hiring this company again.
Description of Work: Steem cleaned entire upper level carpet, two area rugs, and hand cleaned six throw pillows.

Jeff is very knowledgeable, helpful, and honest. This is a family business and not a chain carpet cleaning place - just the type of place I use Angie's List to find. He came by after the carpets were dry and helped move some of my belongings back. You should know that it takes carpet a couple days to dry as their process is very moist, but thorough. Also, they don't take credit cards. I recommend them.
Description of Work: Jeff and his colleague cleaned our carpets and upholstery that had not been done for a long time. They were willing to honor all my special requests for moving furniture and belongings off of the carpet because I wanted every inch done this time.

They were very responsive, prompt and thorough. They pretreated pet stains and got most of them out. They did all furniture moving and even cleaning inside the master closet. I was very appreciative of their care in not getting any water on our hardwood (unsealed) floor, even though they had to run their hoses across the wood floor.
Description of Work: They cleaned all carpeting on first and second floors of our home.

Unfortunately I did react to something & had problems breathing in the den & when sitting on the sofa for the first week or so. Jeff's partner came & vacuumed the upholstery a week later after I called to tell them of my problems. I don't know if the vacuuming helped or if increasing the ventilation in the house helped but the problem did eventually go away. The partner claimed that the ink stain was the fault of the manufacturer using ink during construction. He was put out when I said I knew this not to be the case. It was ink that I'd probably gotten on the chair & the cleaning made it run. Jeff couldn't get it out & hoped I wouldn't see the stain he left. The partner claimed he couldn't make a judgment call on it and said he couldn't help. The stain remains. John did an excellent job on the carpets. They are very clean. He was concerned that he knew what I wanted with regard to where I wanted deoderizer and Scotch Gaurd used and made sure I got what I wanted.
Description of Work: Cleaned carpet in den, one bedroom, hallway and stairs. Used deoderizer and Scotch guard in den and on stairs only. Cleaned upholstery on 2 small and 2 regular size chairs and one regular size sofa. The sofa was dry clean only. Cleaning caused a previously unseen ink stain to run on the arm of one of the chairs leaving a stain about 5/8" diameter. I have allergies & I told Jeff that I was concerned about possible reactions to his solutions, especially the one used on the sofa. I've had problems with dry cleaned furniture before and he said that he didn't use 'perc' & that no one had ever had a problem with his solutions.

WE WERE ECSTATIC OVER THE JOB THAT GOLDEN BEAR DID. OUR CARPETS WERE QUITE OLD WITH STAINS LEFT BEHIND FROM PREVIOUS OWNERS. THEY ALL CAME OUT AFTER THE STEAM CLEANING. THE METHOD OF PRICING THAT GOLDEN BEAR USES SEEMS FAR MORE REASONABLE THAN MANY OTHER COMPANIES. THEY USE A CHARGE BY THE SQUARE FOOT METHOD. THEREFORE, OUR OVERALL PRICE WAS VERY REASONABLE FOR THE ROOMS THAT WERE CLEANED. THEY MADE SURE THAT ALL DRAPES WERE OUT OF THE WAY AND HELPED ME MOVE SOME OF MY HEAVIER FURNITURE ITEMS. THEY EVEN SUGGESTED SOME VACUUMING TECHNIQUES I COULD USE TO LIMIT EDGE STAINING IN THE FUTURE. I REALLY APPRECIATED THEIR FRIENDLINESS AND EFFICIENCY.
