After our Ultra Clean service, carpets are left just slightly damp to the touch. Most carpets usually dry in 4-5 hours. However any areas that require additional cleaning or preconditioning may take longer to dry. If drying time is a concern, we can take special steps to try to speed this process up for you. You are able to walk on the carpet right after the cleaning. However, we recommend putting on a clean pair of slippers. Ideally is not to walk on them of course.
