Chem-Dry vs Steam Cleaning
Keep your home clean & fresh with Chem-Dry

We know how much it means for homeowners in Williamsburg, Hampton, New Kent, and the surrounding communities to provide a safe, healthy space for their family. Keeping your home clean and fresh with Chem-Dry is one easy way to do just that. We know that our hot carbonating extraction (HCE) cleaning method is the best way to provide cleaner carpets, rugs, and upholstery, but we also understand that some homeowners still believe that steam cleaning is the way to go. It only takes one Chem-Dry cleaning to see the difference that HCE makes.

If you’re used to traditional steam cleaning, you know that it takes an awful lot of hot water to get the job done. In fact, traditional steam cleaners use nearly five times as much water to get its cleaning solution into your soft surfaces as our cleaning solutions require. It’s nearly impossible to get all that water out of your carpets and furniture once the cleaning is completed. Not only does it take much longer for your surfaces to dry – usually 24 to 48 hours – the leftover water increases your risk of mold and mildew growth. Worst of all, these cleaning solutions usually leave behind a residue that gets your carpets dirty fast. For all the money you spend on cleaning services, shouldn’t there be a better way?

Carpets dry much faster often in 1-2 hours

With Chem-Dry, there is! We harness the power of millions of tiny bubbles to work deep down into your carpets and break down set-in dirt, stains, allergen, and grime. Even the toughest stains are no match for HCE. Our cleaning solution, The Natural®, is green-certified, nontoxic, and safe for every member of the family – even your pets! Its gentle, neutral pH means that it’s safe for nearly all materials, and since it’s so effective, only a light application is needed. Once The Natural® has worked its magic, we come back through with powerful suction equipment to remove all the dirt, as well as any water or leftover solution. Your carpets will dry much faster, often in just 1-2 hours. The Natural® doesn’t leave behind any residue, so your carpets will stay cleaner for longer.
