How Does the Professional Cleaning Service by CleanWave Carpet Care Work?

If you’ve never hired a professional carpet cleaning service in San Diego, it’s completely normal to have questions about how the process works. Every company is different, and you deserve to know exactly what to expect.

In this guide, we walk you through step by step how CleanWave Carpet Care operates, from scheduling to drying, including what to prepare beforehand and what sets our service apart.

How to Schedule Your Professional Cleaning in San Diego

You can request a free estimate via our website or by phone.

In the initial conversation, we’ll ask you a few details to better understand your needs:

  • Type of service: Carpets, Upholstery, Rugs, Hardwood Floors, Tile & Grout
  • Number of rooms or items
  • Condition of the space (stains, pet hair, odors, pet urine, etc.)
  • Preferred date and time

With this information, we’ll send a quick quote and schedule your cleaning.

What to Prepare Before CleanWave Arrives

Before our technicians arrive, we recommend:

  • Removing any fragile or personal items from furniture and surfaces
  • Vacuuming the area, if possible, to enhance the steam cleaning
  • Keeping pets and kids in safe areas during the service
  • Ensuring easy access to water and electricity, essential for our high-performance equipment

If you have garage or parking available, it helps a lot with our logistics.

Does CleanWave Move Furniture During the Cleaning?

Yes! We safely move light or medium furniture (chairs, ottomans, small tables).
Heavier items or electronics should be moved in advance, but we can help guide you if needed.

Our goal is to reach the largest surface area possible safely.

CleanWave’s Professional Steam Cleaning Process: Step by Step

Our method uses hot water extraction, a safe and effective cleaning process recommended by experts. Here’s how it works:

  • Technical assessment of the area
  • Application of eco-friendly pre-treatment solution
  • Focus on stains and heavy-use areas using specialized brushes and products
  • High-power steam cleaning (hot water extraction)

This method is safe for children, pets, and is endorsed by environmental health professionals.

How Long Does a Professional Cleaning Take?

It depends on the size and type of material, but here’s an average:

  • 1 room: 20–30 minutes
  • 3-seat sofa: 1 hour
  • Hardwood floor or tile (20m²): up to 45 minutes

But keep in mind that CleanWave needs to assess the location in order to provide the exact duration for any job.

How Long Does It Take to Dry?

Drying time varies based on material type, airflow, and temperature:

  • Carpets, Upholstery, Rugs: 8 to 10 hours
  • Floors and tiles: ready in up to 2 hours

The greater the airflow, the faster the drying process.

Our team provides all post-cleaning instructions to ensure a safe and comfortable environment.

Do You Need to Leave the House During Cleaning?

Not at all! You can stay home, just avoid walking through the cleaned areas.Our products are non-toxic, certified, and safe, even in homes with children, seniors, or pets.

How to Keep the Results for Longer

After your cleaning, we recommend:

  • Regular vacuuming
