Chem-Dry of Chapel Hill- Durham Eco-Friendly Carpet & Upholstery Cleaning

Since 1998 Chem-Dry of Chapel Hill-Durham has been proudly serving our Durham and Orange Counties, including Durham, Chapel Hill, Hillsborough, Mebane, Research Triangle Park, and Pittsboro communities by helping our customers maintain a clean, healthy, happy home.

Our advantage in customer service satisfaction is technician experience.  Our average technician experience is 14 years--very rare in the home service industry, or any other industry.  One reason for our unusually high level of experience is the large job satisfaction we get from the wonderful results and satisfied customers.  Our technicians think of their job as a career, not as a temporary way to pay bills.

Another reason for our customer satisfaction and large repeat business is owing to our franchises' proprietary low water, hot carbonating, deep clean extraction process combined with our non-toxic, exclusively green-certified solution.  The result leaves your home not only cleaner but safer and healthier, too.

Chem-Dry of Chapel Hill-Durham is a locally owned and operated international franchise.  Be aware that there are other Chem-Dry franchises, but only one is named Chem-Dry of Chapel Hill-Durham.  We provide superior carpet and upholstery cleaning, in-home oriental rug cleaning, proprietary wood floor cleaning and polishing, and tile/grout cleaning.  Our most famous product may be the pet urine treatment.  Chem-Dry's patented pet urine treatment is amazing--the best in the business; the treatment breaks down the urine and makes it go away.

When you receive a coupon in the mail offering carpet cleaning services, please read the fine print.  In many cases these coupons advertise the old, less effective Chem-Dry method, which we have never used.  Additionally, your final cost by using these coupons may be significantly higher than our fair, daily prices.

At Chem-Dry of Chapel Hill-Durham, we provide professional carpet cleaning & upholstery cleaning, wood floor cleaning, and tile/grout cleaning in Durham, Chapel Hill, Hillsborough, Mebane, and Pittsboro. Our mission is to serve our customers every day by helping them maintain a clean, healthy, happy home. Our proprietary deep cleaning Hot Carbonating Extraction cleaning process uses the cleaning power of carbonation to lift and extract dirt and grime from your carpet and upholstery fiber, delivering a superior cleaning while using 90% less water than traditional steam cleaning. Since we use less water, your carpet dries in 1-2 hours (excluding areas requiring additional stain treatments), so there won't be a musty smell once your carpet dries.

Our professionally-trained technicians here at Chem-Dry of Chapel Hill-Durham are dedicated to providing an outstanding cleaning experience and will treat your home and family with the respect you deserve.

Frequently asked Questions

We provide our industry-leading carpet and upholstery cleaning services in Durham, Chapel Hill, Mebane, Research Triangle Park, Pittsboro and the surrounding area.

No, we're not a steam cleaner. Chem-Dry of Chapel Hill-Durham uses carbonation to lift and extract dirt and grime from your carpet and upholstery. This allows for a deeper cleaning without using gallons of water that typical steam cleaners use.

All of the ingredients in Chem-Dry's primary cleaner, The Natural, are on the F.D.A.'s G.R.A.S. (Generally Recognized as Safe) list and are safe for your carpets, your home and your family. The Natural does not contain any soaps or harsh chemicals. So you can rest assured that we're making your home healthier, not just cleaner.

Chem-Dry of Chapel Hill - Durham uses a hospital-grade sanitizer. Our Hospital-Grade Sanitizers are effective at eliminating 99.9% of bacteria from hard non-porous surfaces like tile, stone, wood, laminates and vinyl. Our Hospital-Grade Sanitizers have also been approved by the EPA for use against the Novel Coronavirus SARS-CoV-2, the cause of COVID-19.* So when you choose us to clean your carpet and upholstery, you can rest assured that you are getting professional-grade solutions for a healthier home.

Pet odors can linger on for months if not treated properly. As urine dries in the carpet and padding it crystalizes. The millions of concentrated urine crystals that are left become even more pungent. Many companies just mask this odor with perfumes which will eventually wear off. Chem-Dry uses a patented system, P.U.R.T.® (Pet Urine Removal Treatment) to explode the urine crystals and break down the enzymes. This process gets rid of the pet urine odor forever!

Chem-Dry’s cleaning process is better and healthier than other methods for your carpet and upholstery cleaning. Chem-Dry’s unique hot carbonating extraction carpet cleaning method uses the power of carbonation to extract more dirt and grime from your carpets, giving them a deeper and longer lasting clean. Our carbonated cleaning solution only requires us to use a fraction of the moisture other methods such as steam cleaning require. This allows your carpets to dry faster, typically in 1-2 hours.

Industry experts suggest that homeowners clean their carpets every 3-6 months especially homes with kids, pets or if someone in your home has asthmas or allergies. Regular cleaning will not only improve your home’s appearance, but it will eliminate germs and allergens, improve your home’s indoor air quality and extend the life of your carpet and upholstery.

We use our proprietary Hot Carbonating Extraction process, featuring our core cleaner The Natural. The carbonated cleaning bubbles release dirt, soil, airborne allergens and spots from the upholstery fibers. Then, we use our extraction equipment to remove the cleaning solution, dirt, soil and airborne contaminants from your furniture. Leaving you with a cleaner couch than other alternatives could provide.
