Does Chem-Dry of Fulton-Forsyth offer coupons, specials or promo codes for carpet cleaning?
Are Chem-Dry products harmless for my kids and pets?
All of the ingredients in Chem-Dry’s primary cleaner, The Natural®, are harmless for your carpets, family, pets, and the environment. Like the name states, The Natural® doesn’t contain any harsh soaps or chemicals, but is rather composed of natural elements that are harmless for your carpets.
Is Chem-Dry of Fulton-Forsyth a steam cleaning service?
Carpet Cleaning
How does Chem-Dry compare to steam cleaning?
Traditional steam cleaning saturates your carpet with an excessive amount of water filled with soaps and detergents. So you’re left with wet carpets for 1-2 days, which creates a breeding ground for mold, mildew, and dirt. Plus, the soapy remnants left behind attract dirt and cause your carpets to get dirty much faster.
Chem-Dry of Fulton-Forsyth’s process is very different. We employ millions of microscopic bubbles to explode dirt from deep in your carpet fibers, which is why we only need to use a fraction of the water that typical steam cleaners use. After the carbonation releases and lifts the dirt, our high-powered equipment extracts the dirt and moisture from the carpet.
What is the best carpet cleaning method?
The Chem-Dry of Fulton-Forsyth cleaning process is considered by many to be superior and healthier than other methods for your carpet and upholstery cleaning. Chem-Dry’s unique hot carbonating extraction carpet cleaning method uses the power of carbonation to extract more dirt and grime from your carpets, giving them a deeper and longer lasting clean. Our carbonated cleaning solution only requires us to use a fraction of the moisture other methods require. This allows your carpets to dry faster, typically in 1-2 hours rather than 1-2 days, and helps prevent the growth of mold and mildew under your carpet. Chem-Dry’s signature cleaning solution, The Natural®, is a cleaning mixture that—through the power of carbonation—lifts dirt to the surface where it is whisked away. The Natural® is ideal for homes with kids and pets.

Regular cleaning will not only improve your home’s appearance, but it will remove non-living allergens, improve your home’s indoor air quality, and extend the life of your carpeting.

What type of chemicals does Chem-Dry use?
