Ever since they totally restored a dismal carpet, which I had previously had cleaned by others, I have never used anyone else. The Earth-and people friendly chemicals that they use, PLUS their superior labor do a great job. I highly recommend this company to anyone!

Wonderful service; Ive used them for years and have always been much more than satisfied. They once even took my large Oriental rug away & did a superb job of cleaning it.

My carpets are 10+ years old and have taken a beating from kids and pets. They look great again and it was affordable with their 5 room deal. Jake was courteous and professional! Will be using A-Ok again! Thank you!

We have three pets, two cats and a dog, who have all at different times urinated in the house. Weve cleaned it up ourselves over the years with varying degrees of success but the recent soaking of two antique chairs was beyond our skills or patience. This team saved the chairs (and probably the cats life!). They also cleaned two carpets that had been repeatedly soiled and now look brand-new. Highly recommend.

The staff was very friendly, they were prompt, and it was less expensive than what I assumed it would be.

Fast, friendly, effective service. Carson explained everything and made the process simple. Someone did some work on our house and made a huge mess. A-OK cleaned it up and our carpets look brand new.

Hired them for a move out carpet cleaning. The tech did a great job, was super friendly, and even went above and beyond to help me move an elliptical down the stairs and out of the way! Thank you!

I recently moved to Colorado, bought a house, and wanted to get the carpets cleaned before moving in. They came on schedule, explained the options, and did great work on the carpets and some prior pet spots. I didn't realize the carpets were supposed to be a lighter shade of brown! Highly recommend!

A-Ok Chem-Dry does fabulous work. Our 28 year old light-colored carpeting has lasted that long due to Mike's hard work. Today Jason came out instead of owner Mike and also did a spectacular job on our very old carpet. I am very thankful.

I only needed 1 rooms carpet to be cleaned. They treated it & me as though it was an important task. The A-OK rep was gracious and did an excellent job. The room looks much better.

Mike & Sara = The Pros Pros! Highest quality service, personal interaction and cleanest carpets I've ever seen. Cleaning company several years ago said, "these stains won't come out." Didn't even expect it was a possibility and it was not talked about this go around. Alas, Chem Dry got the stains out. My carpets were done about 3 hours ago, and they are pretty much dry, never looked or smelled better. No water buildup causing bacteria and mildew. Don't go anywhere else, Chem Dry is the bomb bomb!

Mike E. has done our (all light-colored) carpets for years because A-OK is detail-oriented, prompt, efficient, and their cleaning stuff doesn't stink to high heaven. We will continue to work with A-OK to the exclusion of others.

5 plus stars from beginning to end! From the phone call letting us know they were on the way all the way until they left was such a pleasant experience! Mike his wife and there staff were so kind, friendly and knowledgeable! I felt like the were our friends from the minute we opened our door. Their prices were totally reasonable and affordable! Our carpets look great and our house smells so clean!
No joke the carpets were dry about an hour after they left which is awesome! Not to mention their products are eco friendly and non toxic for our dog! We will be asking them to clean our carpets and any of upholstery from now on!

Mike Elder was a champion! I didn't think there was any hope for our family room as we were already planning to replace with hard surface, but MAN! He was able to get us a lot more time from it! He "RELEASED" the dirt, the dander, and brightened it back up really well! The rest of the house looks and feels amazing. I felt like he cleaned our floors like they were his own. I will definitely recommend him to anyone who asks!

Great experience. Appointment scheduled within 2 days, great communication, on time, and of course excellent quality. The carpet was very clean but was also dry within 2 HOURS! We use them annually to get our carpets cleaned and have always had a great experience. They are very pet-friendly too! I very highly recommend this company.

I had the best experience with Chem-Dry. Mike, the owner, did the work himself and you could not ask for a nicer guy. He did not push additional services like other companies, worked quickly and efficiently and at the end our carpets looked at least as clean as I have seen them with other companies. We have relatively deep pile carpets, yet the Chem-Dry process left them mostly dry - we moved the furniture back after a couple of hours. Highly recommended.

Mike was on time (actually a bit early), explained the various optional services and went to work doing all we could have expected. He did an excellent job. We'll definitely call him back when we next need to have our carpets/furniture cleaned.
