Ted Siedlecki · September 29, 2023

Advantage Carpet care did an amazing job of cleaning my living room carpet! Its like having a brand new carpet. They were so efficient! I wish I had before and after pictures but they did a fantastic job. I'm very happy with the results! Definitely 5 star !

Toni Hartman · August 8, 2023

Used them for years! Great results

Kelly Taylor-Aoki · June 12, 2023

This is my second review for Advantage Carpet Care. I asked Owen and Ted if it would be possible for them to clean my very special area rug. This Flokati Rug has very long wool fibers, and it requires very special cleaning. I was elated to discover that Ted has cleaned this type of rug before, and he knew exactly how to do it. When he returned the rug, it was cleaner, softer, and whiter than it had ever been! Ted has a very extensive knowledge of Flokai Rugs, and he did an AMAZING job cleaning it for me. My advice to anyone who has an exotic rug that needs cleaning, you really need to check out Advantage Carpet Care.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does someone have to be there when you come to clean?
If you feel comfortable, our experienced carpet cleaning team can securely lock up your home after completing the service and will send you a text notification once your carpets are professionally cleaned. Payment will still be required upon job completion. For those with busy schedules, we also offer Saturday carpet cleaning appointments. After over 35 years of providing trusted carpet cleaning services on Oahu, we’ve earned the trust of our clients, and we’re committed to delivering the same peace of mind to you.
What method do you use to clean carpets, upholstery, floors and rugs?
We use hot water extraction, commonly known as steam cleaning, as our preferred method for cleaning carpets, upholstery, floors, and rugs. This method is highly effective for deep cleaning and is recommended by most carpet manufacturers. Steam cleaning not only removes dirt and stains but also sanitizes your carpets and furniture, leaving them fresh and revitalized.
How to Prepare for Your Upholstery Cleaning Appointment
For the best results during your upholstery cleaning: Ensure that your furniture pieces are easily accessible from all sides and clear of any breakable objects or delicate flooring. If we’re cleaning your carpets or rugs on the same day, we can place your sofas or chairs on top of them. Alternatively, as a last resort, the furniture can be set on tarps to protect the floors. We will “A” frame loose cushions to maximize drying time. In most cases, it’s best to wait until the following day to reassemble your furniture, allowing it to dry completely. This preparation ensures a thorough cleaning and faster drying process for your upholstery.
How do I prepare for my carpet cleaning appointment?
We look forward to providing you with top-notch carpet cleaning services. Please help by: arranging parking as close to your entrance as practical; removing breakables from cleaning areas; clearing the floor except for large furniture items; keeping pets safe; pointing out spots and spills; dusting baseboards and fans when practical; and considering carpet protector after cleaning—we’re happy to discuss options during your appointment.
Do You Have a Warranty?
At Advantage Carpet Care, Hawaii, your satisfaction is our top priority. We are committed to doing everything possible to clean and remove spots and stains, leaving your floors looking their best. However, please note that some substances can cause permanent staining or discoloration, which even our advanced cleaning techniques may not fully eliminate. Our technicians will assess fiber, soil type, age, and condition—and we’ll put forth our best efforts.
How Often Should I Clean My Carpets?
As a general guideline, it’s recommended to have your carpets professionally cleaned at least once or twice a year. For high-traffic areas, homes with pets, or individuals with allergies, more frequent cleanings may be beneficial.
