Carpets, like dogs, often hide under the dining-room table and let out audible whimpers when threatened with bath time. Make your carpets howl like the beasts they are with today’s Groupon: for $19, you get a one-room deep cleaning for up to 200 square feet from Clean Carpet Solutions (a $38 value). Services are available for homes and businesses in Roanoke, higher Roanoke Valley, Smith Mountain Lake, and Martinsville.

Uprooting dander and dismissing dirt, the crafty IICRC-certified carpet cleaners at Clean Carpet Solutions skillfully restore allure to ailing floors. Before each cleaning, eagle-eyed techs inspect carpets for stains and smoldering fire pits while relying on olfactory prowess to sniff out odors.

After dampening dingy problem areas with a prespray treatment, a RotoVac uses high-torque spinning motors to unleash steam cyclones on the carpet, tearing oily soils and stains from fibers and ridding them of pet hair, dust mites, and other allergens with a storm surge of vaporized water. The RotoVac pulls up stains from cooking vapors, pets, and mud that vacuums can’t grab, and leaves each carpet 20% dryer than a traditional steam-wand treatment and 90% dryer than a garden-hose watering. After the steam cleaning, techs finely inspect each carpet and perform a final preening to ensure its surface has been fully restored and is more pristine than an unused diaper.
