Used a groupon. Crew was friendly and professional. Very Fast. Of course they did the upsale which I expected. Not entirely sure the value is there but overall pleased. Would probably use again, but likely will maintain with my own steamer

I called the Thoroclean number in Exton (610-524-5659). Making the appointment was painless, although the woman I spoke with was not particularly warm or friendly. The guys showed up on time on the specified day. It was a damp day, and I was unhappy that the men walked through the white-carpeted house with their muddy boots. The older guy who was in charge was not friendly and tried to sell me additional servies (which I declined). He said that it could take two days for the carpets to fully dry (this is not what their advertising says). After they left, I found that the carpets were so damp that I went over them all with my own steam cleaner and extracted another gallon of dirty water. The carpets were not in terrible shape beforehard, and did not look much better after they had been cleaned. The dirtiest part was the stair nosing (which I had pointed out to them), but they work on that at all--they just swiped the flat horizontal surface of the step. They were unable to remove a dark smudge from one step. Although they went through the motions, they didn't put in the effort to do a really good job. Bottom line, I would not hire Exton Thoroclean again. Suggestions to Exton Thoroclean for improved service: 1) Supply booties so the guys don't track in dirt. 2) Let the younger guy (who seemed friendlier and more polite) do the talking--I might have bought some Scotchguard from him, but I didn't the contemptuous way the older guy growled at me. 3) Extract more of the dirty water!!! Leave the carpets drier!!! 4) Do the edges of the stairs, especially the front edge.

Response from Thoroclean
Thanks for your review and the 2 A's and B given, with the 2 D's average would be C+ to B+. As there are 3 months between service & review discrepancies exist. Heavy torrential rain began falling 12/22 ended late 12/23, service performed 12/23 shortly after noon. In fact most work performed 12/23 was extracting water from basements. This customer the only one paying us to wet clean their basement, one of the six areas. Both techs about same age, with Thoroclean nearly 20 years each. Customer asked Age of carpets? answer 18 years. Asked Last cleaning? answer 10 years ago. Asked Who last cleaned? Customer answer; they had a portable. Asked again Who? No response. Noted on signed invoice. Customers schedule services they want when calling in, 70-80% Scotchgard and 70-80% Microban disinfect. Both techs walk with customer through areas to be cleaned. Then before starting, we review expectations with customer and precautions to be taken. Detailed above customer signature on the invoice. Basically this scripted; As cleaners the condition of the protector before we arrive effects the out come of the cleaning. When the finish wears off permanent wear, color loss and staining occurs. (We service all flooring and upholstery and drapery produced) Next we explain servicing soft fibers is like doing laundry. Cleaning is the washing machine, Microban disinfecting is cooking in the dryer. Take clothes from the dryer and wear for part of a day, run through the washer, leave in some days as little as an hour lift the lid, you may smell a musty odor. That is not from the washer, but microorganisms. Also told we recommend shoes over bare feet, no socks. Told to walk on carpet after pretreat applied to clean them. Told to watch step when walking from damp carpet to surrounding surfaces. Right after being told customer ignored recommendation given. Customer not listening/paying attention since question #2. Noted on invoice; Air filtration along walls, wear on stairs, color loss on basement carpets. Went over stairs heavy. It is very rare to clean carpets over 10 years, let alone 18 year old carpets last cleaned 10 years ago. No recommendations were given except to inform the customer it could take up to 2 days to dry in the basement especially with the heavy rain and flooding. If a recommendation would have been given it would have been to disinfect location,due to age, service history and weather. Regarding advertising since opening Feb 14, 1956 Thoroclean has never advertised anything with regards to drying time. Flip over any cleaning machine, turn on and pour bottled spring water into vaccum, now check the recovery. Tell me does it look like light coffee? Would you drink it? Yes, and I wouldn't. Thoroclean has a 10 day guarantee, simply call and we return. If any dirt left in the carpet cleaning lines would occur where wand over lap, none were there when we finished. Amount paid is lower than listed on the review, need only check the invoice. When Scotchgard is applied after cleaning, rate is 1/2 gallon every 100 feet. We steam in 2 to 3 gallons per minute while cleaning. Not saying believe statement about a gallon extracted. Do not recall anything being tracked in by foot, some may have came in on the hoses. We clean from the furthest area working our way out the door, our feet exit followed by the wand. Regarding Growling, is that what she describes as talking over the equipment noise, like talking over a vacuum. If that is, then she began growling/asking questions while the equipment was running. Sounds like a vacuum cleaner. Copy of signed invoice available for review.

I scheduled Thoroclean for carpet cleaning in the morning of 4/11/14. I called several weeks ahead and specifically requested a morning appt, then I scheduled a morning off from work. The scheduler told me that with so much advance notice, I would be scheduled between 8 am and noon. The day before the appointment I received a call telling me my "window" was 1 pm to 4pm. I explained that I ONLY made the appointment because the morning was the time I could arrange to work from home. The caller said NO NOTATION was made about the morning. She refused to reschedule any of the other appointments or make any accommodation and I was forced to cancel the appointment. Their scheduling is misleading and incompetent. I guess they expect people to wait around all day and lose a day of pay because they can't schedule competently.

We provide service 6 days a week (Monday - Saturday), We do take requests for AM or PM, and make every attempt to fill as many requests as practical. The routes are put together in the morning the day before, and constantly are changing till put together, then called and confirmed. Once a job is confirmed that is that clients time of arrival. The confirmed window of time is for arrival, how long the work will take is additional.

The job went well. The serviceman did a through job on steam cleaning my sofa and recliner. There was very little wetness left on the furniture. He used a deodorizer in his solution as well. The sofa was put back together. Completely satisfied with the job.
Description of Work: The company cleaned my upholstery.

Arrived on time, did a very professional and complete job in 3 rooms and 2 stair wells. When they were done the carpets were really clean, and moist but not wet. They also charged what they gave as an estimate.
Description of Work: We've used other carpet cleaners who charged more and left the carpets really wet-when they dried there were the same stains that were there before. These folks were very professional. the carpets were damp but not wet when they were done and the stains were gone-really gone!!

THOROCLEAN DID A GREAT JOB ON MY CARPETS, INCLUDING PET-STAINED AREAS. THEY WERE VERY HELPFUL AND COURTEOUS. THEY EVEN RETURNED TO RE-DO CERTAIN SPOTS THAT DID NOT COME CLEAN ON THE FIRST APPLICATION, WITH NO EXTRA CHARGE OR COMPLAINT. I WILL DEFINITELY HIRE THOROCLEAN NEXT TIME I NEED CARPET CLEANING. THEY UNDERSTOOD MY NEEDS AND GOT THE JOB DONE.
