The whole experience was seamless. From getting an appointment quickly to the service itself. Evan did a wonderful job cleaning our carpet and our shower floor. In our new house the shower floor was stained, but he was able to work his magic and it looks beautiful now. Highly recommend Brown Family Chem-Dry!

Brown Family has been cleaning my carpet since 2023. I was a new customer in 2023. Now it is 2025 and I am still a new customer to them as they value my business. Evan did the best job with my area rugs. I didn't know anything about carpet cleaning and they do know what stains they can get rid of and what kinds of services will help my carpets. They did an excellent job and I will call them t...  See More

I had a wonderful experience with Browne Family Chen-Dry! From the responsiveness to my request for a quote and the ease of setting up my cleaning to the incredible professionalism I received from Josh. Josh was on time, provided great insight to what could be cleaned, how much spot treatments would cost and the PERT treatment he could provide to treat some urine stains. I recently had a kitty tha...  See More

My 20 pound dog found her way to the bottom of a family-sized bag of peppered beef jerky while we were gone for the morning. She then drank two full bowls of water and relieved herself all over the house. I filled in a few online quotes to get my carpets cleaned asap and this company contacted me the same day with availability the following morning (someone else had canceled and I gladly took thei...  See More

Frequently asked Questions

Here at Brown Family Chem-Dry, our cleaning processes are higher quality and healthier than other methods of carpet and upholstery cleaning. Chem-Dry’s unique hot carbonating extraction carpet cleaning method uses the power of carbonation to extract any dirt and grime from your carpets, giving them a deeper and longer lasting clean. Our carbonated cleaning solution only uses a fraction of the water that other methods like steam cleaning require, so our process is better for the environment. Plus, this allows your carpets to dry much faster, typically within a couple hours.

If not treated properly, pet odors can linger for months. As urine dries in the carpet and padding, it leaves behind millions of concentrated urine crystals that become even more pungent over time. Many companies just mask this odor, but here at Brown Family Chem-Dry, we use our patented system known as P.U.R.T. (Pet Urine Removal Treatment). This cleaning process blows up the urine crystals, breaks down the enzymes, and washes it all away. Our P.U.R.T. system will get rid of your carpet’s pet urine odor forever!

Industry experts suggest that homeowners have their carpets cleaned every three to six months, especially homes with children, pets, or anyone with asthma or allergies. Regularly having your carpets professionally cleaned will not only improve your home’s appearance, but it will also eliminate germs and allergens, significantly improve your home’s indoor air quality, and extend the life of your carpeting.

For upholstery, we use our proprietary hot carbonating extraction (HCE) cleaning method, featuring our core cleaner, The Natural®. The HCE method’s carbonated cleaning bubbles release dirt, soil, allergens, and spots from the upholstery fibers. Then, we use our extraction equipment to remove the cleaning solution and any contaminants from your furniture, leaving it with a deeper, healthier clean than other companies’ methods.

No, Chem-Dry is not a steam cleaner. Chem-Dry uses heat and carbonation to release dirt and grime from deep within your carpets, so we don’t need to use the gallons of water that typical steam cleaners use.

All the ingredients in Chem-Dry’s primary cleaner, The Natural®, are on the FDA’s GRAS (Generally Recognized as Safe) list, so they’re safe for your carpets, your home, and your family. The Natural® does not contain any synthetic soaps or harsh detergents.

Most new carpets come with a factory-applied protectant, but this wears off over time. Re-applying a protectant onto your carpets can help them resist stains and soiling, so your carpets will stay cleaner for longer. Another reason that protectant is a wise investment is that it will slow the aging and wearing process, so it can extend the life of your carpets.

Our room sizes are based on 200 sq ft. If any of your rooms are over 200 sq ft, there may be an additional area charge.
