Not Just "Steam Cleaning." 
A Total Restoration System

Most cleaners just push dirt around with soapy water, leaving your floors soaking wet and sticky. At Maid VIP, our vetted independent pros use the Hot Water Extraction method—recommended by major manufacturers like Shaw and Mohawk—to actually remove soil from the base of the fibers. We don't just wash your carpet; we reset the hygiene of your home.

OUR 4-STAGE RESTORATIVE CLEANING PROTOCOL
  • Step 1: Dry Soil Removal (The "Pre-Clean") Before a drop of water touches your floor, we perform a heavy-duty industrial vacuuming. This removes dry dust, skin cells, and abrasive sand. Adding water to dry dirt creates "mud," which dulls your carpet's color. By removing the dry soil first, we ensure a brighter, cleaner finish.

  • Step 2: Enzymatic Pre-Conditioning (Breaking the Bond) You wouldn't wash your hair without shampoo. We apply a specialized high-pH enzyme solution that "dwells" in the fibers, breaking the surface tension that binds oil and grease to the carpet. This suspends the dirt, making it ready for extraction.

  • Step 3: 230°F Thermal Extraction (The Flush) We use truck-mounted industrial units that heat water to 230°F. This extreme heat triggers emulsification, instantly melting sticky residues and neutralizing dust mites and bacteria on contact. The high-pressure vacuum instantly recovers 95% of the moisture, preventing water from soaking into your subfloor.

  • Step 4: The pH-Neutralizing Rinse (No "Crunch") Ever had carpets feel stiff or get dirty again in a week? That’s caused by detergent residue. We solve this by injecting a Fiber Rinse Agent during extraction. This balances the pH of your carpet, stripping away all chemical traces so your floors feel soft, fluffy, and stay clean longer.

The "Thousand Oaks Hard Water" Problem—Solved.

Local tap water in the Conejo Valley is mineral-heavy. If used directly for cleaning, it leaves deposits that make carpets feel "crunchy." Our trucks are equipped with industrial water softeners, allowing our cleaning agents to work at 100% efficiency and leaving your fibers soft to the touch.

"Nose Blindness" is Real. 
We Destroy Pet Odors.

Standard steam cleaning often makes pet odors worse by reactivating urine crystals trapped in the pad. We use a Sub-Surface Extraction System (The "Water Claw") to flood the spot with bio-enzymes that eat the uric acid crystals. We then compress the carpet and pad to flush the contaminants up from the subfloor, permanently removing the source of the smell.

Expert Answers on Carpet Restoration & Care

How long will my carpets take to dry?
  • Unlike rental machines that leave carpets soggy for days, the truck-mounted systems our pros use recover 95% of the moisture instantly. With proper airflow (AC or fans), most synthetic carpets are dry to the touch in 4 to 8 hours.
Do I need to move my furniture before you arrive?
  • We ask that you clear small items (lamps, plants, breakables) and floor clutter. The technicians are happy to move standard sofas and tables to clean underneath. However, for liability reasons, we do not move heavy china cabinets, pianos, or oversized entertainment centers.
Will cleaning my carpet void the manufacturer's warranty?
  • Actually, the opposite is true. Major manufacturers like Shaw and Mohawk require professional Hot Water Extraction every 12 to 18 months to keep their wear-warranties valid. We strictly adhere to these standards to protect your investment.
Can you remove "Red Stains" (Kool-Aid/Wine)?
  • Yes, but this often requires a specialized technique. Synthetic red dyes bond to nylon fibers. Our pros utilize a specialized Heat Transfer Process with a reducing agent that can often remove these stubborn stains.
Is "Scotchgard™" worth the extra cost?
  • Absolutely. Factory stain protection wears off over time. Re-applying a fluoro-chemical protector restores the carpet's "surface tension." This helps liquids bead up instead of soaking in immediately, giving you a critical window of time to wipe up spills before they become stains.
