Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does SafeTech clean houses?

Yes, we do! In addition to carpet cleaning and floor care, we also offer turnaround cleaning for rentals, homes and businesses.

Q: How much does it cost to get an estimate from SafeTech?

A: It's free! To get an accurate estimate, we'll perform several tests at no charge (Ph, soiling, material identification, chemical reactivity, UV Light, and whatever else is necessary). We'll also take area measurements and do a thorough investigation into your carpet materials and installations at no charge.

Q: How much does it cost?

A: It always depends...soiling level, material type, preexisting defects, job location and access, schedule, and repairs needed, and other variables are taken into consideration when pricing each job.

Q: Are you a legitimate cleaner or a total hack that's going to cause problems?

A: SafeTech is licensed in Ocean Shores, WA and only employs IICRC Certified Technicians. Your home is too valuable, and the cleaning and maintenance process is too complex to risk. Your property and health demand professional certification and prudent experience.

Q: How long will you be at my house to clean my carpet?

A: As little as 1 hour for maintenance encapsulation cleaning, and as little as 3 hours for hot water extraction cleaning.

We always deploy commercial air movers to speed up the drying process, but it can take longer for carpets to fully dry in some cases where more cleaning power is called for.

Q: Do I have to leave my house while you're cleaning?

A: Absolutely not, but some parts of the process can be noisy and/or draw odors out of your carpet. While you can 100% stay in your home, most people prefer to be out of the house to avoid the mild unpleasantness that can come about from deep cleaning your carpet.

Q: Can I get moldy carpet clean again?

A: Nope. Mold is no joke to deal with, and it usually points to a structural issue that a carpet cleaner isn't going to be able to address. It's best to get a licensed contractor to replace your carpet or to put a mold remediator on the job, or both.

Q: Can I clean my own carpet with a rental machine?

A: Absolutely, but the risk profile of DIY carpet cleaning isn't good. Renting a shampooer and providing the labor gets you some up front savings (maybe).

But the cost of screwing up is extremely high, as it could be a carpet disaster, leaving brittle fibers or worse staining than when you started. And you'd still have to call a pro to fix it.

Carpet cleaning is ultimately cheaper and easier when left to professionals.

Q: Do you charge a trip or a service fee?

A: Not for any jobs located in Ocean Shores (including Hogans Corner) and up the Pacific Coast to Moclips.

Q: How can you save me money?

A: Regular cleaning an maintenance for your home and carpet is always cheaper than restoration or replacement when it gets too far gone.

It's cheaper to pay a pro to clean in the long run. Plus, you get beautiful floors and home.
