I normally pre spray and pre scrub every two rooms when Im by myself. My truckmount idles. I fire up my machine and clean two rooms. I idle my truckmount back down. Pre-Spray another two rooms and pre scrub. I have to be one of the slowest cleaners on the planet. Do you guys do the samething when you have no helper?

I will spray 2 rooms , scrub , then start setting up. I clean the first room then move the wand to the second room , crack the flow valve on the wand then set it down so I can pre spray the 3rd and 4th room. I then clean the second room while the pre spray is doing its job on the 3rd and 4th room. Get done with the second room and set the wand down so I can scrub the 3rd and 4th room. I never idle the machine down

I pre spray as far as I can, with out it drying. Normally, the whole upstairs.

Once the truck is up to speed(go time) I don't turn it down til done.

I'm more through than most. I HWE the carpet then spray the traffic area. (This way the brush is well lubricated and the pre-spray can do a better job on pre-moistened carpet. Then I scrub the carpet and I follow with HWE again as a rinse.

Dave you are not as through as you think. If you were you would not have to LIE and make up FAKE google reviews. You are a Two Bit Hack. Ive talked to you on the phone. No woman in their right mind would let your creepy a$$ in their house. You are a Fraud.

Wrong again on all counts!!! But, then again no surprise. You are the guy that has to makeup some phony list. Just so you can eak out some sort of weird fake self-esteem to keep yourself off of suicide watch. (And you say I make up stuff?) Don't transpose your problems on to me as a way to hide from reality. Get some therapy Bro !

I prespray and scrub as much of the house as I can before it will start to dry. If it is a 2 story house, the top floor and stairs. I start my TM and clean what was treated. Shut the TM off and repeat until the house is finished.

How many FAKE Google reviews did you make Dave. You already admitted you did. Do you go across the street and log in on the neighbors computer to make the FAKE reviews or the public library. Shame on you.

I have never made up any fake reviews. I had 60 reviews and 3-4 were REAL reviews that were on comment cards that were placed on google by a 3rd party. I NEVER made up fake reviews!!! Read a few of the REAL reviews if you like: A Google User Jan 5, 2013I'm very impressed with this
company. Dave gave me a fair quote, and the very next day he
was there to do the job. Very professional, and my carpets look
brand-new. I highly recommend his service, and when I need
service again, he is the one that I will call. Thanks again!

A Google Jan 7,2013 Dave did a wonderful job cleaning our
living room areas! They were definitely in need of a good
cleaning. Everything looks and smells great! Royal was on time,
professional, and friendly to talk with. Thanks again!

Suzy Landreth -Oct 5 2012Dave promptly came back out when I
called him when a nasty stain had wicked back up to the top of
the carpet. It had been months since he initially cleaned it. He
removed the stain at no charge. Wonderful service!
Bernice - Mar 2, 2011 Dave did a wonderful job. He was easy
to contact, on time, and the work he did on my carpets is
amazing. I have two active and autistic toddlers and the carpet
was just awful. Dave took the time and extra care to do the job
right. I usually have my carpets done twice a year and I'll never
call anyone else!

Karen - Nov 4, 2010 Super fast, friendly & professional! I
called on a Wednesday, got the bid that day, and the carpet was
cleaned on Friday. Very nice and professinal. We had a distinct
cat odor (aka cat urine) and it is gone. No need to replace the
carpet!

Lyndsi - Jun 10, 2011 I have two puppies that used to pee in
one of our main rooms, they are potty trained now but we
couldn't get the smell out. Royal was prompt, quick, and did a
fantastic job! Best of all, they guarantee their work for a week so
if any odor or spots show up they'll come fix it.
Service

Gerry –Oct 28 2010 Carpet and Sofa Excellent job, came next
day cleaned quickly and completely. Sofa looks like new!
Vicki ‎ - Jul 29, 2010 Vicki and Charlie Thanks Dave for getting rid
of the dog odor in our carpets. We had an old dog that couldn't
always make it outside in time. When he finally died, our carpets
were awful. Dave was at our house within a week and was able to
eliminate most of the problem. A year later he came back for a
routine cleaning and now the stains and smell are completely
gone. We honestly thought we would have to replace all of our
carpets, so this has been wonderful.

Thomas ‎ - Apr 17, 2010 Sofa, Loveseat & Persian Rug
Restored! Royal came by and made our white (!) sofa and
loveseat look good as new. We've had him work on it several
times over the years, and the work just keeps improving. And this
is after our dog rubs his wet chin along the side! Our large
Persian rug he took to his shop and cleaned; it came back good
as new. The white tassle fringe looked great. Thanks for all your
effort!

Erin ‎ - Feb 12, 2010 Nice work Dave, Thanks for the great
service! Everything looks wonderful

BJ ‎ - Feb 12, 2010 Thank you guys Thank you for coming early
on a Saturday morning to fit our schedules.
Amy ‎ - Feb 12, 2010 Really impressed Really impressed with the
job. I thought the stain to my rug would be impossible to get out
but you did it! The impossible must be your profession!

Dave- ‎ Feb 9 2010-Very pleased customer I was very pleased- I
Had my couch cleaned now it looks great!!

Melissa ‎ - Feb 3, 2010 Nice Job Always a nice job. On time,
friendly. Our carpets always look great after your visit!

Jared ‎ - Feb 3, 2010 Very Good Very good job of cleaning &
enjoyable conversation. I will recommend your service.

Jan 30, 2010 -very pleased customer Thanks Dave You did a
great job you got all the stains and odor out. Thanks to your
service we were able to minimize turn around time and got the
house rented right away

Tiffany G.-Feb 25, 2011 I've never had such a great job done on
my floors before. I've used many companies in town but Dave really
went above and beyond. He even got out Mr Whiskers poo poo stains
that all the others said would not come out. Dave really knows how
to flatter a girl too, he told me my jugs were the 2nd best he's ever
seen.

Andrew H.-June 01, 2011 Cleaning Very good and professional
job. Yes we had a couple of spots after but, that's because the
spots were VERY deep and Dave told me before he left, If they
show back up let me know and we'll come back out to redo those
spots. He came back out like he said and sure enough the spots
came out! Thanks to Dave and his team for doing such a
professional job at our house and would recommend his service
any day! A+++++


CortneyandMatt on 03/21/2011 We recently had our carpets
cleaned by Royal Carpet Cleaning and he did a wonderful job.
We had stains from our pets and kids, and they are now gone...
looks like new carpet again! Thanks!

GeorgeS. on 02/26/2011 Good News, My elderly mother is on a
blood thinner, that makes her healthier, Bad News, she cut her
TOE instead of her nail. more Bad News, she bled like crazy all
over the carpets walking around to find her phone and even
more going for a bandaid. GOOD News, I called the same
company I have been using for the past 9 years for annual
cleanings, Royal carpet Cleaning. BEST News, the carpets all
look great again! THANKS

Jenna H. 12/13/11 thought the person was very nice and
seemed to do a good job. He did leave a piece of his hose at my
house.

Ann E. 11/28/11 Very prompt and helpful! My carpets looked
great. Got all the stains out!

Laura E.09/29/11 Fast and friendly, did a good job!

Jeremy 08/03/2010 Ijust moved back into my house in Waverly
and my renters left the carpets a mess. I called Royal and not
only did he get the job done on the same day, he also did a
wonderful job! Thanks Royal! ~ Jeremy in Waverly
Mindy P. Feb 8, 2012 Dave had cleaned a
room in our home with a pet stain and I was
tickled at the service. He and his crew were
friendly and even gave us great advice about
the big carpet purchase we were about to
make. We recently got a puppy (yes, soon
after getting new carpet), and had a huge
similar mess. This time all over the house.
Royal was my first, only, and instant thought.
They came the next day and again did a
fantastic job. They were quick, professional,
and I would have paid more for their great
work. Thanks for saving our new carpet ;)


Leelund - Oct 19, 2011 I needed my whole house carpeting
and flooring cleaned to get it ready for selling. I'd used Royal in
the past and based on that experience, I called Dave for this job.
I thought it was an impossible task considering the condition of
the flooring and carpeting. Dave and his assistant did an
excellent job, the carpets look new and the flooring was cleaned
beyond my expectations! The house is definitely ready for its
first open house!

Jenny W. 06/14/2011 We just moved into a new house and
wanted our carpets professionally cleaned. We were also hoping
to get rid of the previous owner's pet smells as it was obvious
their dog had a couple accidents. We called Royal Carpet and
they not only made our carpets look brand new but they were
successful in deodorizing the home. Dave and his crew are very
personable and did a fantastic job. I would highly recommend
them to anyone!

When you guys say "scrub" what do you mean? I will pre spray as much as I can clean before drying, then I use my stiff bristle rake to agitate, then HWE. Is this what you mean by scrub?

Nobody who knows wth they are doing has to scrub every carpet they clean.

Unless they do one job a week and just want to drag out their cleaning "experience".

I mostly rake but some carpets need a lot more pile lifting.

Just ordered anew 175 from cleanfreak thanks to waldo $495 baby. I needed to get this, my 13inch hild is great, but thats on the second truck so when Phil and Jeremy go out they have the tools they need.

HWE then PS then scrub then HWE?

I would try vacuuming first then PS then scrub then rinse.

A good inline will make it plenty lubricated.

I hate to say it but the buckets of dirt we pull out vacuuming wouldn't be possible wetting it first.

Dave,


I think you have at least one fake in there...

Yea the one you added "Tiffany".(Tiffany, "You have a big chin for a woman?") Tiffany G.-Feb 25, 2011 I've never had such a great job done on
my floors before. I've used many companies in town but Dave really
went above and beyond. He even got out Mr Whiskers poo poo stains
that all the others said would not come out. Dave really knows how

I agree with Pigman....if ya got good equipment with heat and vac, use the best chems, MAYBE do a little scrubbing with the rake, you don't need no stinkin' pre-scrubbin' step. You paid for the best equipment....let it do the work it was designed for.....
