Josh and Jake were very good. Did their job as quickly and quietly as possible. I told a friend about their service and she called up Prestige and had her carpets done within a few days, too.

We were very pleased with the service Prestige provided. We have our own carpet cleaner, but figured it was time for the experts. Marcus had cleaned the carpet of a friend of ours and we were so impressed that we requested Marcus to also do ours. Was called with an approx. eta which was nice. The manner in which this service was provided could not have been better. He was very careful with the walls, furniture etc and spent extra time on the bad sections of the carpet that needed attention. Would recommend this company for sure.

We always deal with this carpet cleaning company, even when we lived in a different village. They do an excellent job and I think the prices are reasonable. We have multiple pets and sometimes there are accidents. They get the carpets clean and smelling fresh. Absolutely no complaints. The staff are all very friendly also and they deliver when they say they will.

I called Prestige a few days before my move and they were able to accommodate me in short notice. They called me to remind me and were also very accommodating the day of as I was running late for my service time. The technician that came, Jake, was very quick and did such a great job! I would definitely recommend them!

Our technician, Jake, was very friendly, courteous and professional. He took the time to explain what he was doing, and he explained about how if we have any problems at all, to call and Prestige will make it right.We had multiple stains because of previous owners' pets, and the carpet smelled like 'dog'. Our carpets now look and smell fantastic! I highly recommend Prestige - thank you Jake!

The people at Prestige Carpet were all very profession and did their utmost to assure that we knew what the cost quoted included and that our appointment was secure and the operator would arrive on time. Marcus, our operator, was himself professional in manner and appearance and very well trained and fully competent. Thank you for such a positive experience!

Very professional and thorough. Explained the process from start to finish and the 2 of them Mark and Russell did an amazing job. I am so grossed out seeing how nasty my air ducts were and I can now be confident my ducts are clean! Awesome and excellent job and great company @ Prestige Carpet Cleaning.

Prestige was very accommodating when I had a tight schedule this week. Thanks to phone calls to “squeeze” me in, I was able to have beautifully cleaned carpeting. The technician worked very efficiently and set up my furniture perfectly. I’m very pleased with the job done!

My wife and I were totally satisfied with the results. We have a multiple pet household and we required a superior job. The technician, JAMES, was very polite and professional, and had a genuine concern for the well being of our cats!. ..we both feel that James is a true asset to prestige cleaners, and wish him the best in his future.

Marcus M. and James S. came to provide cleaning for the basement carpet and stairs leading to it.
From the time they both entered into my home to the time they completed the job and left, they showed great professionalism and excellent customer service. They took the time to carefully protect my wood flooring prior to going to the basement, where the actual cleaning took place. I had multiple stains on my beige carpet and i was extremely satisfied with the outcome of their hard work----- the carpet looks as good as new! They did an excellent job!!!
I will a 100% recommend your company to my friends.
Thanks Guys!
Give these guys a raise!

Markus was professional and thorough. Did a quick walk through and laid down floor covers to protect wood floors and wore foot coverings. Carpets cleaned and equipment removed within an hour. Carpets look like new - heavy foot traffic areas renewed. Price was reasonable. Would definitely recommend their services.

Josh and James did a great job for us, they were on schedule and took time and extra care to prepare the areas before cleaning. Today they cleaned an area rug, as well as our favourite arm chair and stairs to basement. They made everything look like new. Thank you! We would highly recommend Prestige Carpet Cleaning, they do fantastic work every time!

Amazing service, excellent technicians and great value for your money!
We got our carpets cleaned by Josh and James and they were superb! Very polite, knowledgeable and professional. One of the rooms used to be play room for the kids with stains and spots of all sorts, I was surprised to see the carpets once they were done cleaning. They were able to even take the slime spots out!! They used “turbo fans” to accelerate the drying time which was perfect. I would highly recommend prestige to everyone and especially to the people with kids! You will be amazed with the results, same way that I am.

The 2 young men who came to my home were well dressed, respectful, efficient, professional and took pride in their work. The price quoted was the price I paid. If there were more stars you would get more. Prestige thank you so much. I feel confident my home will look amazing on MLS. Those young men and your company have my my day.

So happy! Big muddy paw prints I was not expecting to come out are totally gone. My cream colour carpet, looks brand new. Prestige Carpet exceeds all expectations for customer service every time. We have used Prestige for many years at our home and rental properties and have never been disappointed. The office staff, technicians and equipment are always top notch. The highest level of care is taken whether at our home or at a rental property. We can recommend Prestige without reservation.

As a Realtor who likes to give a closing gift to clients to thank them for business, sometimes you try hard to think of something that is useful and valuable. Prestige Carpet Cleaning is a fantastic gift for clients who are moving into a home to give them a fresh start! Some clients also need furniture cleaned and they can select the service of their choice with a gift certificate for Prestige services. Clients are always so pleased at having a service done so professionally and with carefulness And expertise. Prestige always show up respectful of the home and owners they are servicing and leave clients very happy with their spotless work. I have also used Prestige for my own home to clean carpets and furnishings. It has preserved and extended the life of enjoyed rugs and chairs and feels like you have new furniture for a fraction of the cost. For families with pets I refer them to use Prestige prior to listing their home for sale. It’s an important “staging” tool to show of their home in its best light ~ and bring more value. Cannot say enough about how important having a good business partner is ~ nobody wants to be associated with a company that does a less then excellent job. Every time Prestige visits a client they are thorough, respectful, excellent at their work and leave a great impression. Thanks to Prestige Carpet Cleaning.

I am just as happy with the carpet cleaning Prestige did for me as I was with their duct cleaning service. Rizaldo cleaned my carpets and I was blown away by the difference! I thought the carpets in my new home were beige-ish but they are actually a light green..who knew! He was able to restore my carpets to be comfortable to live with until they are ripped out once other renovations are completed. Really saved me some money and it was greatly appreciated. I love to see that all the technicians arrive in clean trucks wearing clean, professional uniforms. It is refreshing to see that they all hold themselves to a high standard and it really shows in the work they provide. Will definitely be calling Prestige again and again.

I had Brian and Jake come to my home and clean my sofa, two area rugs, 6 dining room chairs and my mattress and the service was impeccable. They were prompt, on-time and very professional. My furniture turned up beautifully and stains that I thought would never come out, came out! I recommend Prestige 100% not only for there amazing cleaning results but the professional service the staff in the office provide and the technicians. I will be telling all my friends and family. Cheers to a Prestige!

I just had 4 bedroom carpets, a basement carpet and a x-large sectional cleaned by Lee from Prestige Carpet Cleaning! AMAZING! I still can't believe how clean it all is. The air even feels different. I have a cat who has peed a few times on the carpet and sofa and it smelled like a barn. No matter how many times I tried to clean it, it always had that musty smell. I am relieved that now the smell is gone and it will only smell better and better as the cleaning solution drys and dissolves in the carpet. I am so happy I chose Prestige, I am a customer who likes a bargain and a great job and Prestige provides both! Thanks Lee!!!!

The time had come that we needed to get our carpets cleaned some fabric furniture cleaned and refreshed. As we didn't have a go to carpet cleaning company on standby we did a Google search to see if we could find a local company with good reviews that we could try out. From our initial call the young lady was very pleasant, provide the info and pricing required and set up an appointment. She stated that there would be a follow-up call the morning of scheduled cleaning and there was as promised. Josh showed up right on time to clean our carpets and furniture. He was in a shirt and tie, very professional (he's worked for them for a number of years and enjoys what he does) as he did a house review of what was to be done. He put on booties (over he footwear) put down tarps (to protect our wood floors), used corner guards (so paint doesn't get chipped off) and spent a good 4-5 hours cleaning. He even showed us a before and after picture of the dirtiest carpet. So needless to say based on service, follow up, Josh & pricing would recommend Prestige Carpet Cleaning in Whitby. Thank You - job well done.

I’ve been using Prestige for carpet cleaning and duct services for over 5 years and I can safely say that there can’t be better or more professional company than them. The job is always done well, they always follow up to check for satisfaction and the odd time I pointed out something, they were back to fix it the next day! One of the best businesses in the Durham region!

We have had three dogs over 12 years so you can imagine the shape of the carpets. From the moment I requested an estimate, Prestige was very quick to respond and we had a date set very quickly.The gentleman who came to the house (and on time, if not early) was very professional, wore protective boot slips, had corner guards around the house, drop sheets and he worked very efficiently. Before he started he ask for a walk thru so I could show him some of the problem areas.The work done was fantastic. We were both very happy with the work done. He even (on his own) moved exercise equipment when I thought he would just work around it.I recommend this company to anyone. We will use them again. Watch on line too, they have great deals. They also do furniture cleaning which we will engage them for shortly.One last note on honestly. My wife and I agreed we were too laxed on the duration between cleaning and thought we should maybe do this once a year. When I mentioned it, the service rep said every two-three years is normal. I thought that was very honest of him to tell us. Some others may have said, "Yes, once a year for sure"Great company and great job

You chose your furniture with care. You can trust the experts at Prestige Carpet Cleaning to take care in cleaning it.
More than just carpet cleaning – Prestige Carpet Cleaning technicians are trained and equipped to clean your upholstered and leather furniture! Even with regular vacuuming and spot cleaning for spills or stains, furniture needs cleaning every 18 to 24 months to maintain it’s best appearance and extend its maximum useful life.
Most furniture holds up very well to daily wear and tear without showing clear signs of soiling, however without professional cleaning, there is gradual accumulation of soil over time. In upholstered furniture, soil particles are worked into the surface, contributing to premature wear and permanent fabric damage. With leather, long term neglect can cause permanent discoloration and damage to the leather.
Not sure if your furniture needs cleaning? Ask our tech to test your upholstery using the vacuum test, or to test-clean an inconspicuous spot on your leather furniture.

FAQs
FAQs
Furniture Cleaning FAQs
Why should I choose professional upholstery cleaning?
Dust, dirt in the air and on clothing settle into upholstery and carpet. Regular use of furniture causes these almost invisible soil particles to penetrate deeper than a regular vacuum or personal steam cleaner can extract. Over time, soil particles degrade the fibres of your upholstery, causing permanent damage and decreased appearance.
My furniture has some removable covers – why not just put them in the washing machine?
Your washing machine & laundry detergent are not designed for properly cleaning the designer fabrics used for furniture. Zippered cusions are designed this way so that the foam or cushion can be replaced when it wears out, not so that the cover can be washed at home. Professional furniture cleaning provides a thorough clean without fading, shrinkage and damage to the shape or fabric. Furthermore, when you clean just the cushion covers the rest of the furniture will not match the clean cushions.
Will professional upholstery cleaning remove the protective coating applied when I bought my furniture?
Over time all fabric protectors lose effectiveness, with or without cleaning. If your furniture was purchased more than 2 years ago or is clearly showing signs of soiling, professional upholstery cleaning is recommended. Cleaning will remove what is left of the protectant that was applied when you bought your furniture. We are a certified applicator of 3M Scotchgard ™ Fabric Protector, the worlds leading fabric protection system.
Can you do anything to eliminate strong odours in my furniture?
In addition to Scotchgard ™ which is applied following your cleaning, we also offer Advanced Generation Deodorizer™, which is applied prior to the cleaning and works to disinfect the upholstery, remove odours and leave a pleasant light citrus scent. For biological stains and odours, we recommend application of an enzyme based product called Bio-Treat ™. Bio-Treat ™ is applied following your cleaning and the active formula works over the next 24 to 48 hours to actually digest any residual organic material and stains, improving the appearance and the smell.
Preparing for Your Cleaning
Preparing for Your Cleaning |
One or two days prior to your appointment, we will telephone you to confirm all of your details, including your cleaning address and your order. If you have any questions before then, please feel free to telephone us or contact us.
Before We Arrive:
1) Pre-Vacuum – furniture captures a lot of dust, dirt and hair. Much as you would vacuum or sweep a hard floor before mopping or cleaning, it is very important that your furniture is thoroughly pre vacuumed before we clean it. This can make a huge difference in cleaning results!
2) Preparing Your Space – please move all lamps, plants and breakables that might get in the way of access of all sides of the furniture before we arrive and make sure that the areas to be cleaned are clear of additional items (throw pillows & blankets, etc.).
On the Day of Cleaning:
1) Time – If your appointment is scheduled for the morning, you will be called the previous business day with your narrowed down time of arrival, if you have an appointment scheduled for the afternoon, you will get a call between 10 am and 11 am the day of your cleaning with your narrowed down time.
2) Parking – we require legal, paved parking within 30 feet of the entrance of your home.
3) Payment – we accept debit and all major credit cards. Unfortunately, we are unable to accept personal cheques or cash.

Immediately After Cleaning:
Pay Attention to Drying
After cleaning your upholstered furniture will be slightly damp for up to 24 hours, depending on the temperature, air flow and humidity in your home. You can help speed up the drying process by keeping throw pillows or blankets off of damp furniture, running fans, including the summer fan on your furnace, opening windows (in summer) and keeping the area warm. If your furniture is not dry within a day, please contact us.
Spots & Stains
When stains have soaked thoroughly into upholstery, they often spread below the surface into the foam or batting, and cleaning can cause residues to “wick up”, causing stains to reappear or even appear larger after cleaning. If you have any concerns with reappearing stains, or any of the results of your cleaning, even after everything has dried, please telephone us.
Regular Maintenance – Tips for Keeping Upholstery Looking Great
Vacuum thoroughly: Although it may not be obvious, dust and dirt settle into your upholstery from the air and every day use. Vacuuming your furniture thoroughly with the furniture attachment of your vacuum helps to keep your furniture looking great longer. How frequently you should vacuum is based on how much dust is in the home and how much the furniture is used.
Spot Clean: If you have a small spill or spot, clean it carefully and quickly, while it is still wet, following our stain guide. Use an absorbent material such as paper or cotton towels to absorb as much as possible. If there is a large volume of liquid, we recommend calling a professional, as it will be difficult to extract on your own.
Get Your Furniture Treated with 3M Scotchgard™: Scotchgard™ helps fabrics resist soiling and makes cleaning up spots and spills easier. PLUS we make it easy for you to keep your furniture looking great, with our Scotchgard™ Guarantee: For 1 year from the date that we apply Scotchgard™ to your upholstery, we will return up to two times for FREE to treat spots and stains on the treated furniture items!
Keep up the Cleaning: Your furniture should be professionally cleaned every 12-24 months in order to maintain your investment and keep it looking great for as long as possible. Cleaning your furniture regularly can prevent premature wear, improve appearance and prolong its life.

If you have any concerns with reappearing stains, or any of the results of your cleaning, even after everything has dried, please telephone us.
Regular Maintenance – Tips for Keeping Upholstery Looking Great
Vacuum thoroughly: Although it may not be obvious, dust and dirt settle into your upholstery from the air and every day use. Vacuuming your furniture thoroughly with the furniture attachment of your vacuum helps to keep your furniture looking great longer. How frequently you should vacuum is based on how much dust is in the home and how much the furniture is used.
Spot Clean: If you have a small spill or spot, clean it carefully and quickly, while it is still wet, following our stain guide. Use an absorbent material such as paper or cotton towels to absorb as much as possible. If there is a large volume of liquid, we recommend calling a professional, as it will be difficult to extract on your own.
