Your home deserves the best care, and when it comes to reviving your carpets, A Guy In A Truck Cleaning Services has perfected an 8-step process that promises not just cleanliness but a transformation for your living spaces. Let's dive into each step and discover the meticulous care that sets A Guy In A Truck apart. 1. Walk Through: Setting the Stage for Success The journey begins with a comprehensive walk-through. A Guy In A Truck understands the importance of personalized service. By addressing any concerns, taking measurements, and determining the best cleaning process for your carpet, they set the stage for success. Clear expectations are established, and the use of a black light to identify pet areas ensures that every inch is given the attention it needs. 2. Prep and Protection: Guarding Your Floors with Precision Before the cleaning process kicks in, A Guy In A Truck prioritizes the protection of your home. Floor and corner protection, along with the innovative Orange Seal-A-Door covering, are employed as needed. This meticulous preparation not only shields your surroundings but also showcases the commitment to leaving your home in a better state than they found it. 3. Vacuum: Elevating Cleanliness to New Heights A Guy In A Truck takes cleanliness seriously, starting with a thorough vacuuming using a HEPA vacuum. This not only removes visible dirt but also ensures that dust and harmful particulates do not become airborne. By lifting the carpet pile during this step, they prepare the canvas for the upcoming pre-spray and cleaning, setting the foundation for a deep and effective process. 4. Pre Spray: Breaking Down Barriers to Freshness Spills and foot traffic leave behind stubborn residues. A Guy In A Truck tackles this challenge head-on with a powerful pre-spray. This specially formulated solution breaks down soiling and sticky substances, ensuring that the subsequent cleaning process can lift away even the toughest stains. 5. Scrubbing: Intensive Care for Heavy Traffic Areas For areas that demand extra attention, A Guy In A Truck introduces scrubbing into the equation. The Counter Rotating Brush Machine (CRB) is brought in to tackle heavily soiled or high-traffic regions, ensuring a deep and thorough cleaning experience. This extra level of care sets the standard for pristine results. 6. Cleaning: Harnessing the Power of Steam The core of A Guy In A Truck's cleaning process lies in their truck-mounted Hot Water Extraction System, commonly known as "steam cleaning." This powerful method, coupled with specialty cleaning tools and carpet-specific agents, ensures a comprehensive and effective cleaning that goes beyond the surface, leaving your carpets refreshed and revitalized. 7. Carpet Protector: Preserving the Brilliance To safeguard your investment, A Guy In A Truck applies or re-applies a carpet protector after the cleaning process. This extra layer of defense ensures that your carpets stay cleaner for longer, extending the life of your flooring and enhancing the overall durability. 8. Grooming: The Finishing Touch As the final step, A Guy In A Truck meticulously grooms your carpet, raking through to lift the pile. This not only adds a visual touch of perfection but also aids in even drying. The result is a carpet that not only looks clean but feels clean. In conclusion, A Guy In A Truck Cleaning Services' 8-step process isn't just a cleaning service; it's a commitment to transforming your living spaces. From the initial walk-through to the final grooming, each step is a testament to their dedication to excellence.

Carpet Cleaning FAQs

Got questions? We've got answers! Explore our FAQs to find quick solutions to common questions about our services, policies, and more.

  • How long before the carpet is dry?

    Typically it takes 6-8 hours for carpet to completely dry after a deep cleaning, but usually it’s a lot less than that if you have the house fan set to “ON” and ceiling fans are on. Air circulation will help speed up the process.  And winter time is when it’s usually drier in the house, so carpet typically dries faster in the winter. But if it’s humid or rainy outside, it may take a little longer to dry the carpet.

  • When can I walk on the carpet and move back my furniture?

    If you need to walk on the carpet while it’s still damp, wear socks (light foot traffic only). Shoes will track dirt and bare feet will leave oils on the carpet. Both of these will attract dirt, causing the carpet to re-soil faster than wearing socks (unless they’re dirty 😉 ).


    Furniture can be moved back onto the carpet after 24 hours. If the feet on your furniture are plastic, earlier is fine. But wood or metal feet may leave a discoloration on the carpet if it’s still damp. Best to wait until the next day when possible.

  • What should I use to clean carpet spots & spills?

    We’re glad you asked! We have a terrific product in stock (only sold at A Guy In A Truck) called “Spot Out” that works on all kinds of food & drink spots and spills, plus things like blood, crayon, grass, grease, latex paint, oil, shoe polish, vomit, wax, wine and more. “Spot Out” leaves your carpet fresh and free of sticky, soil-attracting residues without any rinsing. Visit our showroom to pick up your bottle!

  • What can I use to clean pet's accidents?

    We have a few recommendations:


    1) Spot Out - You may have received a sample of this in a goody bag after your carpet cleaning. We also have larger bottles available for purchase.


    2) Furry Freshness removes pee, poo, puke & more! We may have a few more in stock or you can purchase it online.


    3) Nature's Miracle can be found at local stores and does not interact with the cleaning agents that we use.


    (We do NOT recommend using other carpet cleaners, oxidizers or enzymes because they may discolor the carpet before, during or after a carpet cleaning and they can also interfere with a professional grade enzyme treatment that may be required to remove pet accident soiling/odor from a carpet. But the 3 recommendations above are fine to try on your own and won't interfere or cause any issues.)

  • How often should I vacuum my carpet?

    Carpet should be vacuumed at least 1x/week, but if there are pets in your home, it should be 2-3 times/week. Carpet acts like a filter and catches everything in the air like dust, germs, pet fur and dander, etc. How clean your carpet is (like an air filter) will determine your air quality. Make sure you have a good quality vacuum cleaner with a HEPA filter. This will be especially helpful with pets in the home, as it will trap the allergens in the vacuum instead of blowing them back into the air. If you need help finding a good vacuum, we recommend the Sanitaire QuietClean® SC5845B HEPA Upright Vacuum that we use on every job. We can order it for you and have it in a couple days. We also stock replacement filters for the canisters. Give us a call or visit our showroom for more information!
