Chem Dry came and cleaned our tiles and grout in our kitchen. The transformation was incredible. Not only was Brandon on time but he explained everything that he was going to do, how long it would take and what the cost was all up front. We will definitely have them back to perform this service in the future.

I am extremely satisfied with the carpet cleaning I had done from Chem-Dry. Zach was AMAZING! He was so polite, nice and very genuine. I had a terrible area of carpet that my cat used as a litterbox. Zach cleaned it up beautifully and it smelled so fresh and clean! He was done so quickly, too. He really went the extra mile! I was very impressed with his work! I highly recommend this company and especially my cleaner, Zach. I can't thank you enough!

I had Welch Chem-Dry clean my carpets in November 2014. They came out fabulous. I have light tan carpet throughout the house which is difficult to keep clean. After they came through, the carpets looked like they were brand new! I am looking forward to having them clean them again this year. It's long overdue but I know I can trust the results.
