Carpet Cleaning Proposal Tips

  1. 1

    Measure square footage and list it. 'Living room' means 150 sq ft or 400 sq ft depending on the house. Put the number on the proposal so neither party is surprised.

  2. 2

    Separate pre-treatment for stains and pet odor. Standard hot water extraction doesn't remove pet urine — it requires enzyme pre-treatment. Quote it as an add-on so the client understands what they're buying.

  3. 3

    State drying time clearly. 4-6 hours for traffic areas, 12-24 hours before moving furniture back. Clients who put a couch on wet carpet then blame you for marks need this in writing.

  4. 4

    Note if furniture moving is included. If not, say so. Moving a sectional sofa is 30 minutes of work that clients assume is free.

  5. 5

    List the cleaning method. Hot water extraction (steam cleaning) vs. encapsulation vs. dry cleaning produce different results and drying times. State which you're using.
