Testimonials
Great article on preparing for a flood. Much needed information and good practical advice. Thanks.
Niel Liquez
Thanks for the blog on how to choose a professional carpet cleaner offering clear and practical advice on what to prioritize. I didn’t even know there was such a thing as a certified carpet cleaner – definitely made it easier to choose a local professional.

I loved the “Carpet Cleaning Myths: Busted”! It does an incredible job debunking common carpet cleaning myths with clear, practical explanations. It’s packed with expert insights that make maintaining carpets simple and stress-free, whether you’re a homeowner or business owner. A must-read for anyone looking to protect their carpets and avoid costly mistakes!

Thanks CFI – I just read the blog on carpet warranties and it does a fantastic job breaking down the key aspects of residential carpet warranties, making it easy to understand what’s covered and how to maintain my carpet warranty. It’s a helpful resource for anyone looking to protect their investment and keep their home looking its best!
