I have had Alberta Carpet and Furnace cleaning do my annual furnace cleaning for a few years and have always been happy with their service. When I got their services for my church, I was wowed at their attention to detail. The tech Justin was thorough and he was so good. He double checked on some stains on the carpet to ensure I was ok with how they didn't quite clean out. He was efficient and went above in ensuring the streaks that came out when chairs were steamed cleaned were wiped off. I am so glad we chose them and look forward to having them clean our ducts as well

Our technician was very friendly. He also was trustworthy in that I had to leave for an appointment and was able to leave my key for him to lock the door and slip it back under the door. Carpets look good.

My experience was great from start to finish – a timely response to my request for a quote to get 2 large (8’ x 10’) cotton Indian area rugs cleaned off site. I was quoted $493 to get them both done but with the caveat that if some stains were resistant, it might be higher. I thought this was fair – might sound like a lot of money, however, I hadn’t had them cleaned in 7 years and I knew that at the very least, they were full of dust and one of them had some tough stains to get out. I was given a date and a 2 hours time range in which they would be picked up. They picked up within that 2 hour window. My carpets were picked up by Aldwin – extremely courteous and answered all my questions.
11 days later, I received a call from them to set up the drop off appointment – Saturday morning between 8 – 10 a.m., which was great as I didn’t have to work from home, sent me a confirmation email, called me on the Saturday morning between 7 & 8 a.m., and were there by 8:16 a.m. Nicole dropped off the cleaned rugs, which were enclosed in heavy duty poly bags to protect them – she explained that Aldwin, who had picked up my rugs, had cleaned the one that was heavily stained, 9 times. It looks great! And I was charged the price in my original quote. Both Aldwin and Nicole were very professional, and the company kept me in the loop throughout the whole process. I will use them again and I highly recommend them!

I would like to commend Glenn, your incredible Alberta Carpet Cleaning technician. Glenn arrived promptly as scheduled and was extremely careful during the cleaning process.
He answered our questions and was very knowledgeable. ACC has cleaned our carpets for years and as a repeat customer, I will request Glenn for all of our future carpet cleanings. Glenn is a true ambassador for your company. Thank you again, Glenn, for your outstanding work.

Hi, Alberta carpet cleaners were awesome to deal with. I also called Alberta carpet cleaning prior to my appt and asked them what I needed to do regarding my stains and they said they would take care of the stains and not to put it add anything to carpet.. They were right on time with their calls and showed up exactly as said...
The cleaning tech, Ronald did an awesome job cleaning my carpets!! They were quite dirty and removed all the stains😀.
I would recommend Ronald, he is very pleasant to deal with...

We are very disappointed in the cleaning we received this time. The carpets are not clean and they really do not look any different then before they were cleaned. The previous time when we used your service the gentleman did a remarkable job. So we are actually very surprised that we did not get the same quality that was delivered previously. We are seeking out other cleaning companies to redo this so we can have clean carpets. Very unhappy.
Update: It was indeed a pleasure to speak with the customer service people. They responded in a very positive manner and were more than happy to do what ever it took to ensure our satisfaction . Our carpets were re done and they are as we expected, very well done. Thank you for being exactly what you state.

We just had technician Ronald who done an amazing job in our house on Saturday. Every square cm was cleaned very thoroughly including difficult to rich areas underneath coaches. After cleaning our carper in 3 bedrooms, bonus room and stairs looks nice, fresh and feels comfy. Thank you very much Ronald! We use Alberta carpet cleaning for last 5 years always happy with their service and appreciate that they can accommodate our busy schedule

This will be my second time using Alberta Carpet Cleaning in Edmonton, and I am very happy with the service yet again!! My favorite thing is how the company follows up to with you prior to your cleaning, ensuring they have the correct information.
I used their website to get a quote which came immediately and while I received several quotations from other companies that were cheaper, the service, reliability and professionalism that Alberta Carpet Cleaning provides is worth the price.... They are reasonably priced when you compare with other reliable cleaners (as I received 6 other quotes) but with one major difference.....the fact that they guarantee the work they complete is worth the price!! If you're not happy, they will come back.
The technician arrived when stated he would and we did not wait long. He was very professional and friendly. Faben was amazing! He got started right away, and completed within 25-45 mins from start to finish.
I had an empty apartment on the top floor of our building (with an elevator) of two bedrooms, two short hallways and a living room that needed to be cleaned, they offered me a "apartment package".
Got my full damage deposit back, thank you again guys. Love your company and customer service, I will be back.

Booking the appointment was simple and efficient. We received a call in the morning of the scheduled date to give us an estimated time to expect the technician. Half hour before arrival, the technician called to confirm his ETA. Ronald (technician) arrived on time, explained the process and got to work. The job was completed in less than an hour and looks terrific. Ronald was well dressed, was knowledgeable and very pleasant. I highly recommend Alberta Carpet Cleaning.

Hello my name is Frankie ouwerkerk and we just had our carpets cleaned by an employee named Socrates, he was very professional and extremely courteous and his work was amazing I have white carpets upstairs and down, my carpets are 12 years old and have never been cleaned downstairs and only once upstairs. My carpets look like they are brand new again, I recommend Alberta Carpet Cleaning to anybody who wishes to have brand-new looking carpets again. Their prices are extremely competitive with other companies I called for estimates and I don't think anybody can top the quality of work I received from the employee named Socrates and Alberta Carpet Cleaning company. Thanks again Socrates and Alberta Carpet Cleaning. I I'm one very very satisfied customer..... sincerely Frankie ouwerkerk

We had our furnace cleaned today. The 3 crew members who came, were very professional, friendly, efficient and also had a keen sense of humor !. They went through the invoice and explained everything to a tee. Really awesome customer service & to reiterate, allot had to do with their personalities 🙂 & professionalism. It was evident, they liked their job & wanted their customers to have a good experience so that, the company can be called upon again in the near future. In addition , we found the customer service when we phoned in , was also very friendly when arranging a time for the cleaning, as was the call back ,when they notified the window time of arrival.

We booked Alberta Carpet cleaning to clean the carpet in our house. The technician (Mannie) arrived and walked us through the procedure. He was personable, polite, professional and an overall great person. The work was done quickly and professionally. After the job was complete he invited us to inspect the carpet and if we were not satisfied he would re-clean it. Everything was perfect! I would highly recommend this company to anyone. Thanks Mannie!

We have been using Alberta Carpet Cleaners (and more recently Furnace Cleaners) for over 15 years! Each time they arrive when scheduled and sometimes earlier which is always great for us! They are professional, courteous, work quickly and are efficient...they always do a great job! They can get out stains that I think are a lost cause! This year Ronald came out to care of the carpets. We did a walk through and he explained exactly what he was going to do so when he was finished there were no surprise additional costs. I will always recommend them to family and friends!!

I used them this past monday to clean after moving out they were professional and on time, and the WHITE carpets turned out great, i got back all my damage deposit. They used corner guards and runners so not to get the floors dirty or damage the walls

I had Aldwin come in and carpet clean two bedrooms for me. I live in a condo building but he made it easy with the portable unit even in feets of snow!
Surprisingly the results were fantastic even without the high powered truck mount. There were quite a few spots and stains from a dog living there previously and everything disappeared! The bio-treat product to treat the carpets worked amazingly for the dog accidents.
There was a lot of humidity after the cleaning that I was a little concerned about 8hr+ after the cleaning. I followed up with them and was happy to be told it's not uncommon and some recommendations on how to get the moisture out of the rooms. Definitely will be using them again!

Having never hired carpet cleaners before, I hired Alberta Carpet Cleaners solely on the previous reviews and could not have been more pleased!

The job was done fast and efficient for exactly the price quoted, no issues at all.
Great job folks!

We had them in to clean our furnace last week. I could not be more pleased with the service! The 2 gentlemen came in and were incrediblely nice and explained what they were going to do and how long I would expect them to stay. They brought in their equipment and put down carpet and corner guards so they wouldn't wreck the walls. The day they came it was a little cooler, they had to leave the door open but put a cover the door! Very pleased, I highly recommend them, I will certainly be using them again!

Today I had my sisters rental condo carpets cleaned. The two technicians I had were Anthony (in training) and I believe his name was Auld (?)
These two gentlemen were truly amazing and problem solved immediately when they discovered they could not park their van nor did they have a hose long enough for the portable.
They were so informative about the condition these carpets were in and made very good recommendations (had I known I would have budgeted for).
They were so great with my 6 month old who was with me and were so caring of the fact that it needed to get done today and in a timely fashion.
I'm very impressed and hope these two gentlemen get not only recognition but potentially something better.
I'll be using this company again and requesting either of these gentlemen!!

Wow what great service. From the time I phoned Alberta Carpet Cleaning to the actual cleaning, the service was great. I had my Furnace cleaned in the morning, by Ha and his trusty partner. These boys were dressed and ready for work, smiles on there faces, and equipped with blankets, and tarps, and drywall corner protectors so as not to damage my carpets or hardwood floors. They took the time to clean all of my ducts, and the furnace. Great job and I would Highly Recommend the Team.
In the afternoon it was carpet time, and in walks Bogdan, a great person with one goal in mind to make my carpets look like new. Again great customer service. My carpets ranged from 15 years to 40 years old, and they all turned out great. Id like to thank all the people over at Alberta Furnace and Carpet Cleaning for a great experience. regards Richard

Preparing For Your Cleaning
Maintaining Area Rugs Between Cleanings
Maintaining Area Rugs Between Cleanings
Vacuum thoroughly: Although it may not be obvious, dust and dirt settle into your rug from the air and every day use. Vacuuming your rug thoroughly and frequently keeps it looking great longer. How frequently you should vacuum is based on how must dust is in the home and how much use the rug gets, but a good rule of thumb is once per week, or 2-3 times per week for rugs in high traffic areas.
Spot Clean: If you have a small spill or spot, clean it carefully and quickly, while it is still wet, following our stain guide. Use an absorbant material such as a cloth diaper or disposable diaper or feminine pad to absorb as much as possible. If there is a large volume of liquid, we recommend calling a professional, as it will be difficult to extract on your won.
Treat your rugs with 3M Scotchgard™: Scotchgard™ helps your rug resist soiling and makes cleaning up spots and spills easier.
Keep up the Cleaning: Carpet manufacturers recommend professional cleaning every 12-24 months in order to maintain your warranty and keep your carpets looking great for as long as possible. Cleaning your carpets regularly can prevent premature wear, improve appearance and prolong their life.
Area Rug Cleaning FAQ
Why is the in home cleaning only available for certain types/sizes of rugs/mats?
The in-home cleaning process is a simplified process designed for synthetic, machine woven rugs without fringe or heavy soiling. In order to thoroughly clean larger, more soiled, fancier or natural fibre rugs, we need access to our facility and full range of tools.
What is the importance of regular area rug cleaning?
Many homeowners wait to book a cleaning until area rugs have a spot or stain, or traffic areas appear worn. What you may not realize is that, over time, even area rugs in low traffic areas collect dust and soil below the surface where regular vacuum cleaning may not reach. To preserve the appearance of your rugs, most carpet manufacturers recommend professional cleaning every 12-24 months for regular traffic area rugs. Rugs in low traffic areas which are vacuumed regularly can wait 36 months between cleanings if there are no stains or concerns.
Why do you take my area rug back to your office for cleaning?
Light, small, inexpensive rugs can be cleaned in home, at the preference of the customer, however, it’s important to understand that the results are not going to be comparable to a thorough restorative area rug cleaning in our dedicated area rug cleaning facility. See our method above to compare the steps in an in-home cleaning vs. a cleaning at our facility.
What is difference between one carpet cleaning company and another?
Just like every other industry, the carpet cleaning business has many competitors all claiming to offer the best service at a variety of different prices. Alberta Carpet Cleaning has been serving our clients for over 30 years and we’ve developed internal controls and training systems that are time tested and can be trusted. Our staff are long term people that are paid the highest wages in the industry. Our constant training, proven systems and the deep cleaning Thermo-Rinse hot water exctraction carpet cleaning system allow us to operate efficiently enough to pay our technicians the highest wages in the industry while still offering the best carpet cleaning prices to our customers

Preparing For Your Cleaning
Preparing for Your Cleaning
One or two days prior to your appointment, we will telephone you to confirm all of your details, including your cleaning address and your order. If you have any questions before then, please feel free to telephone us or contact us.
In-Home Basic Area Rug/Mat Cleaning
- Make sure that your area rug is in a spacious area on a surface that is resistant to water.
- Vacuum your mat or rug thoroughly prior to our cleaning for best results
- Ensure you have a space where your rug/mat can dry with good air flow, on a water resistant floor (not hardwood or carpet).
In-Depth Restorative Cleaning – Area Rug Pick Up
- Vacuum It – If there is visible debris on the carpet, give it a quick vacuum. We will do a thorough vacuum of both sides at our facility, but any large or lose debris should be removed prior to pick up if possible.
- Roll it – If you are able to do so safely, roll up your rug and have it near the door for the easy accessibility and to make your pick up simple and convenient.
- Areas of Concern – If you have specific areas of concern, you may mention or point them out to your technician at the time of pick up
- Payment – we accept credit card & debit card at the time of pick up.
In-Depth Restorative Cleaning – Area Rug Cleaning Time
Your area rug will be processed at our plant using a very thorough cleaning process. The condition of the rug as well as areas of concern will influence how long it takes. Typically this will take 7-10 days to allow for thorough drying, as well as re-cleaning if necessary (this is quite common in rugs with pet concerns or stains).
Drop Off
- When your rug is ready to be returned, you will receive a telephone call or email to schedule the drop off.
- When we bring your rug back to you, we will unwrap it and place it back in it’s home!
Maintaining Area Rug Between Cleanings
Maintaining Area Rugs Between Cleanings
Vacuum thoroughly: Although it may not be obvious, dust and dirt settle into your rug from the air and every day use. Vacuuming your rug thoroughly and frequently keeps it looking great longer. How frequently you should vacuum is based on how must dust is in the home and how much use the rug gets, but a good rule of thumb is once per week, or 2-3 times per week for rugs in high traffic areas.
Spot Clean: If you have a small spill or spot, clean it carefully and quickly, while it is still wet, following our stain guide. Use an absorbant material such as a cloth diaper or disposable diaper or feminine pad to absorb as much as possible. If there is a large volume of liquid, we recommend calling a professional, as it will be difficult to extract on your won.
Treat your rugs with 3M Scotchgard™: Scotchgard™ helps your rug resist soiling and makes cleaning up spots and spills easier.
Keep up the Cleaning: Carpet manufacturers recommend professional cleaning every 12-24 months in order to maintain your warranty and keep your carpets looking great for as long as possible. Cleaning your carpets regularly can prevent premature wear, improve appearance and prolong their life.
Area Rug Cleaning FAQs
Area Rug Cleaning FAQs
Why is the in home cleaning only available for certain types/sizes of rugs/mats?
The in-home cleaning process is a simplified process designed for synthetic, machine woven rugs without fringe or heavy soiling. In order to thoroughly clean larger, more soiled, fancier or natural fibre rugs, we need access to our facility and full range of tools.
What is the importance of regular area rug cleaning?
Many homeowners wait to book a cleaning until area rugs have a spot or stain, or traffic areas appear worn. What you may not realize is that, over time, even area rugs in low traffic areas collect dust and soil below the surface where regular vacuum cleaning may not reach. To preserve the appearance of your rugs, most carpet manufacturers recommend professional cleaning every 12-24 months for regular traffic area rugs. Rugs in low traffic areas which are vacuumed regularly can wait 36 months between cleanings if there are no stains or concerns.
Why do you take my area rug back to your office for cleaning?
Light, small, inexpensive rugs can be cleaned in home, at the preference of the customer, however, it’s important to understand that the results are not going to be comparable to a thorough restorative area rug cleaning in our dedicated area rug cleaning facility. See our method above to compare the steps in an in-home cleaning vs. a cleaning at our facility.
