What clients say.
★★★★★
Our high-traffic areas and area rugs look brand new after their hot-water extraction service. They lifted stubborn pet stains I thought were permanent and completely eliminated the lingering pet odors.
— Patricia N.
★★★★★
We had deep-set stains and a dull look across all our upstairs carpets. The extraction deep clean was remarkable; the carpets dried incredibly fast and the colors look revived, especially in the traffic lanes.
— Brian D.
★★★★★
After a year of kids and pets, our area rugs were full of ground-in messes and odors. They treated each rug individually, and the deep extraction pulled out everything—the fibers are soft and completely renewed.
— Michelle S.

Terms & scope
Carpet cleaning terms, defined.
| Term | What it means at Maid VIP |
|---|---|
| Steam cleaning / hot-water extraction | The same method. Heated solution is injected and extracted with a truck-mount or portable unit; it is the method referred for wall-to-wall carpet. See steam vs. dry. |
| Vacuum | Routine vacuuming between professional cleans is what keeps extraction intervals long; see how often to clean carpets. |
| Area rug | Priced by size rather than per room. Wool, silk and viscose rugs are cleaned with low-moisture methods; synthetic rugs by extraction. |
| Upholstery and drapery | Sofas from $150 and armchairs from $75, cleaned in place under upholstery cleaning. Drapery is quoted separately on request. |
| Eco-friendly / green solutions | Product preferences — low-residue, fragrance-free or a specific brand — are noted on the quote and followed by the professional. |
| Pet stains and odor | Enzyme pre-treatment and a subsurface extraction on the affected area, quoted per spot. Guide: removing pet stains from carpet. |
| Commercial carpet | Office and retail carpet is quoted per square foot after hours, under commercial cleaning. Industrial flooring is not a Maid VIP service. |
| Price | $30–$75 per room; most whole-home jobs $150–$400; $150 visit minimum; restoration work 2–3× standard. Carpet cleaning cost guide. |
Floor, tile and grout work is priced separately: wood floors and tile & grout.
Common Questions
Carpet Cleaning FAQ
How much does carpet cleaning cost?
Carpet cleaning is quote-based: price depends on the area cleaned, the fiber type, and how much soil or staining has built up. You receive a fixed quote — covering both price and estimated time — before anything is scheduled. For real 2026 ranges by home size and condition, see our carpet cleaning cost guide.
What method do you use to clean carpets?
Our referred professionals use hot-water extraction, commonly called steam cleaning. After a pre-vacuum and spot pre-treatment, hot water and cleaning solution are worked into the pile and then extracted, pulling embedded dirt and residue back out for a deep clean and faster drying.
How long do carpets take to dry?
Most carpets are dry within a few hours, since extraction pulls out the bulk of the moisture. Good airflow from open windows, fans, or AC speeds it up, and the professional avoids over-wetting so you are not left with soggy carpet.
Do you clean area rugs?
Yes. Area rugs are in scope and handled on-site at your home, including wool, synthetic, and blended rugs. Delicate or high-value rugs are color-tested first and cleaned with fiber-safe methods. Fine and natural-fiber pieces need extra care — see upholstery & fine leather care and coastal flooring & sand.
Can you remove pet stains and odors?
In most cases, yes. Pet accidents are pre-treated and odors are neutralized rather than masked. Severe or set-in contamination that has reached the padding may need additional treatment, which the professional will flag before starting. For homes with pets, our guide on pet & family allergen control covers keeping it managed between cleans.
Which areas do you serve?
We serve eight hubs across Los Angeles and Ventura County: Thousand Oaks, Malibu, Beverly Hills, Woodland Hills, Calabasas, West Los Angeles, Camarillo & Oxnard, and Moorpark & Simi Valley, plus the surrounding Conejo Valley, Westside, and West San Fernando Valley neighborhoods.
