Cleaning and Repair Processes and Prices
Welcome To Hilbrands Carpet Care in Temecula, CA here is a list off all the
Cleaning and repair prices we offer. You may browse below or click to instantly
go to section.
I have made Carpet cleaning prices easy and set a low price that includes vacuuming
moving furniture and spotting (if heavy soil I can add dual process /
scrubber for small extra see below).
- First 3 rooms: 125.00
- Extra rooms: 25.00.
- Stairs: 45.00.
- Larger walk-in closet or bath: 10.00.
Process is the same or better then most good companies even if their 3x the price so I
don't short change to discount. My square ft. max is 200 sq. feet which is
more generous then most Co.'s. I am pretty fair when it comes to room sizes
though so I don't go around measuring every room I do call a LR/DR or a
divided Master bedroom as 2 but rarely any other. Below is some
typical whole home examples:
Multi room carpet cleaning price examples:
- 3 rooms: 125.00 with hall 150.00 with stairs 195.00. Extra rooms 25.00.
- Small home: 5 rooms and hall 200.00 with stairs 245.00 Extra rooms 25.00.
- Average home: 7 rooms and hall 250.00 or with stairs 295.00. Extra rooms 25.00.
- Large home: 9 rooms and hall 300.00. or with stairs 345.00. Extra rooms 25.00
Carpet Cleaning Extras:
Some services are extra if desired. I have set a low price for these services
and rarely mention them unless obviously needed.
Soil Retardant: 10.00 per room.
We are a licensed Stainguard applicator. One of the best soil retardants I
have used. While many over dilute or even worse fail to apply we use
as directed and can demonstrate this by drying it on a paper towel in the
microwave and then inserting it water to show water repellency.
Dual Process: 50.00 for 4 rooms extra rooms 0.00-10.00 per room.
Rather then leaving some rooms partially soiled we can power scrub them
before steaming the carpet so its added to only the dirtiest of rooms.. This is what sets our company apart from
others and has made us preferred by many property managers.
Speed drying: 25.00 (blower rental pick up next day).
Red-Out:
45.00 for hand size red stain removal.
Red out Is a method that loosens dye. While carpet
dyes vary in strength generally food dyes are weaker then carpet dyes. Mostly just
the red comes out. However its a delicate balance and needs to be stopped when background
color starts to loosen. At this time red is either removed or severely lightened. It is
very important to have an experienced repairman to attempt this
Pet spots enzyme treatment: 35.00 for 1 gallon enzyme
(most homes don't need more)
Pet spots are best treated with enzyme and needs to be fresh and cool until use.
(it decreases efficiency as it ages). Each spot must be located and saturated
through to the pad (a lot on each spot). I use a black light to locate but
darkness is required or use eyes and nose for more obvious areas. I also can
lift carpet and see damage on backing and then replace a corner of saturated pad
and spray underneath for slightly more.
Pet Spots in Tank Deodorizer 15.00 per home:
Deodorizers which help but have no long term solution can be added to steam
chemical. Many co.'s price for a lot more. I use a chemical which
also has some antimicrobial properties smells like cinnamon and many people feel
it makes home smells disappear.
We do all process
to clean any fabric for one low price.
Processes:
Different processes are used for different fabrics.
They are All fabric rinse (slightly acidic to avoid bleeding and
browning), Foam cleaning (usually used with all fiber rinse to avoid residue),
and steam
cleaning strongest.
It is common to use combinations of processes
above based on conditions. For instance a microfiber sofa's biggest
issue is it can get crushed and show streaks in it so I steam all spots and
soiled areas, then
spry rinse and extract using special velour tool that has holes in it vs. a
slit (it gives a smooth lay), then I towel smooth to make lay perfect.
Other examples is a rayon where you need to keep very dry so a rinse is only
used, but on a dirty edge it would be foam cleaned, then rinsed.
Furniture Cleaning Prices
- Sofas: 95.00 (extra long slightly extra)
- Love seat: 75.00
- Easy Chair: 35.00.
- Arm chair: 30.00.
- Dining chair: 10.00 seat only 15.00 with back.
- Sectionals: are priced
based on what pieces they compare too. A sofa and a loveseat size (most
common) would be 135.00. 2 sofa size would be 150.00.
Larger U shaped might include an easy chair (35.00) or even another sofa
(75.00).
Best possible repairs for less.
My Repairs have made me famous. As a repair specialist I have
taught classes in repair. So whether you choose me due to my low price or
high quality you can be sure that I will do a good job and be careful with
your carpet. A lot of skill is required to make the repair as unnoticeable
as possible. Wear, color, and carpet quality all most be considered. I do not
charge extra for Berber as I actually like to repair it.
Restretch:
115.00 for a average room 150.00 large room. walkin closets and baths are
45.00.
L shaped or divided rooms would be priced as 2 small rooms.
Halls are 100.00 but often need to be seemed because stretch is to the
middle and overlap cut then reseamed so add a seam of 45.00 is common. Stairs are 7.50 each. Furniture moving is typically added if necessary
25.00 to 40.00 per room. To stretch we use a power stretcher
and carpet is tucked and trimmed. In some cases moving furniture is waved or
reduced if numerous rooms or light to few pieces of furniture so its best to
call for a quote.
Reattatch to tack strip: Small
corner or doorway 50.00 about 3 feet. Larger would be a room
restretch.
New edge to tile: 75.00 for 3 feet after
that 10:00 per foot
(when new tile floor was installed) includes Tack
strip and small stretch.
Carpet Repair: 75.00 for small size up to 150.00 for large
repair.
Removal of iron burn, un-removable stain, fix hole, pet damage
etc. Seamed in
using seeming iron not two sided tape!
We do all process for one low price.
Process:
My grout cleaning service is the most
thorough you can find. After doing hundreds of grout jobs I have found that
spraying the grout with a tile cleaning solution and then scrubbing
every grout line with a V shaped grout pole brush causing the grunge to lift
prior to steam cleaning. After the grout looks clean I then steam and extract using
truck mounted high strength machinery this rinses the grout and steams the
tile clean. The final step is I dry using numerous towels not left to air
dry as some companies so I leave a very clean finish. While not required
sealing is available. Process is get a section clear, clean and dry,
then move furniture back and continue working through the tiled areas.
Price:
- Grout / Tile cleaning: 40 cents per square foot
- Grout Sealing: 15 cents per square foot
- Power Scrubbing: 15 cents per square foot This is unusual but for very soiled textured tile, (not grout as it is handled with pole brush and most tile cleans with rx20 pressure washing
after the pole brush).
Estimating:
I estimate square footage
over the phone so I can give you a price and then measure at the time of
the appointment correcting my estimate. This generally is about 1/2 of what
other companies charge especially in home estimate companies. The typical
job is the downstairs hall around to garage laundry and bath, plus the
kitchen and eating area and usually totals around 500 square feet so would be
200.00. Adding a family room the total becomes about 700 square feet so
about 280.00. On some large homes with everything tiled downstairs we
sometimes hit 1,000 sq. feet or 400.00. Some caveats with measuring is
that we include kitchen island as if it were tiled (due to low sq. footage
and how much harder edges are)
and a bathroom or other area separated by carpet as at least 50 feet.
My phone estimates are rarely off by more then 100 square feet which would
be 40.00.
We
can complete your flood damage without gouging.
About:
With the "use it you loose it" insurance today I realize that the repair
should be paid by the customer not insurance (I've heard insurance will
raise rates for everything from an inquiry to a previous owner having a
flood with increases of 1,000.00 per year possible). So be careful when
company's say just pay the deductible and they will bill the insurance co
even though they are over charging. I do most floods for 500.00 to 1,000.00 not 10,000.00 as some companies charge. For do it
yourselfers. I made a step by step it may be incomplete as experience causes
more or less steps to be used so you may damage your homes value you can see
it here.
Process:
First day:
- Inspect carpet and walls
- Estimate job
- Move furniture off of wet carpet.
- Extract water of off carpet
- Roll carpet back and extract on backing
- Remove molding and open walls if necessary
- Arange blowers and leave for 2 - 3 days
2nd day: If wall has been opened we would have
scheduled wall repair and molding install. This is done prior to
carpet install as carpet presses against moldings. wall repair is
generally after 3 days and carpet install is done day or two following wall
repair.
Prices:
Flood damage Prices:

to estimate so even though I'm one of the few carpet cleaners in temecula that post all prices
on line so don't fear a large total just call.
