I used this company for years! We moved out of state. Mike is not replaceable. Trust me if I could use this company I would again! They were awesome! Many things are great leaving Illinois. This one thing is not. I give optimum my full endorsement without hesitation. read more

Our neighbors recommended them and we couldn't have been more pleased. Mike the owner is so fast to respond if you text trying to make an appointment. I booked them on a Thursday and they were there the following Wednesday. We hired them due to one of our pets and they made our carpets feel brand new! We actually hired them that day to do another room in our house! Highly recommend them! read more

Optimum Carpet Care - Carpet Cleaning Near Me - Grayslake, Illinois

See all

Very nice guys and they did a wonderful and thorough job cleaning our carpets. I would highly recommend them!!

I was so happy when Mike Vincent actually answered the phone on my first call. Unlike other companies who never answer or call back. And was thrilled with the job he and his team did on our carpets. I've never had anyone rake the rug after cleaning which looked so nice. They went over and above with their service and we will definitely call them again and pass on their name. Thanks Optimum Sue Dunn read more

I have used this company for many years. They have always been great. But I have to say.. they are BETTER THAN EVER!!! area rugs, wall to wall, furniture, i even had them do my vinyl floors. Rugs and floor and furniture look brand new. And honestly, their price is right on the money! Wonderful company, wonderful owners, wonderful employees. ​ read more

Showed up at a exact time as scheduled. Steve did a very thorough job. We've used the company many times before and they never disappoint. They're a local Grayslake business. Quite reasonably priced too! read more

Without hesitation I would use these guys again! 100% satisfied! Punctual, professional, friendly. Glad we picked them for the job.

Very professional from the phone call, the explanation of their service, and a very thorough carpet cleaning. I highly recommend them!

Called them last week (we had used them previously). Arranged a cleaning date for Monday 4/22/24. They came, they cleaned, they conquered! Professional cleaners, friendly to my dogs, respectful of my house. What else can you ask for? I'll use them again. read more

I have a commercial cleaning business. Before I owned a cleaning company I managed Chicago cleaning operations for Sears Tower Chicago board of trade on and on several of the corporate campuses so I have experience with carpet cleaning. Optimum cleaning does a tremendous job. We have dogs and they have brought our carpets back every time. We will never use anyone else read more

Michael was very responsive to all calls, showed up exactly on time, and the carpet looks great. I had told him we have 1300 sq feet and 2/3 was carpeting so he quoted me a price. When he got here he measured it herself and admitted I had less sq foot then I had said and charged me considerably less. An honest reliable company I can readily refer to others. I'm very happy w this experience. read more

Absolutely fantastic!! The carpet looks so much better than I honestly ever thought it would! He really took his time and it was shockingly affordable. All the praises, thank you! read more

I looked for reviews for truck mount carpet cleaning in my area and saw that Optimum Carpet Care had great reviews, so I called them. I talked to Michael on the phone and he gave a general breakdown on their services and pricing structure. I made an appointment for Saturday afternoon and they were on time and had a professional box truck full of equipment and supplies. In years past I worked in cleaning carpet and know it's a tough job and portable carpet cleaner machines just don't have the power to do the best job possible. Michael and his brother Steven came inside, promptly put on shoe covers and I showed them what I wanted done, what furniture needed to move, etc. They measured the rooms by laser measurements and gave me a fair quote. At first I thought it was a little high, but after seeing the prep work they did before the start of cleaning, I knew I was being treated fairly. They had hose protectors to prevent damage to the floors and walls,, along with a type of door guard that left the door cracked for the hoses but would not allow bugs to enter my home. Very professional. They had extensive equipment that they used on my carpets and their truck mount system worked efficiently and left the carpet looking clean and new. Both Michael and Steven moved my furniture and put it back carefully once the cleaning was done with protectors underneath not to damage either the furniture or the carpet. They ended up doing three large rooms, two sets of stairs and one recliner and it was more than fair for all the labor that they did. I was very impressed with the quality of their work, their professionalism, and my carpets never looked better. I will definitely use them again on a yearly basis. I highly recommend them and I think you'll be happy going with them as much as I was. read more

Reliable and always do an excellent job. We've been using them for years. Highly recommend.

Just had our carpets and two chairs cleaned by Optimum. I'd highly recommend them. They did the best job of any carpet cleaner we've used in the past. Owner/operator Michael Vincent and his crew were very professional too. I had them clean two fabric chairs which were absolutely filthy from our dog, Chocolate Lab, sitting on them for years. I really didn't expect them to be able to get the chairs completely clean but they did and they look fantastic. read more

Micheal always does a great job! I had used a few other carpet cleaners before finding Optimum carpet cleaners and they didn't do a very good job. Micheal at Optimum was able to get years old pet stains out of my carpets and I have continued to use him many times since. I highly recommend them! read more

We had this company come out for a quote because our neighbor recommended them. They were super responsive when we called to set up the appointment and came out to give us an estimate. When we decided we wanted to go with them, my husband called them more than once, left a message AND sent and email and we HAVE NOT heard back from them. Shady way of running a company. They came out to quote and now they won't return our phone call. read more

I have used another company to clean my carpets until I found these guys. I will never have anyone else in my home to clean my flooring. Not only are they incredible guys, but their knowledge and professionalism is beyond compare. I was resigned to replacing my carpet, but with their expertise my carpet look fantastic. No need to look further! read more

We have an elderly dog who sometimes has a lot of accidents, so we decided to rent a carpet cleaner from Home Depot to save money. BAD IDEA! The stains were worse than when we started. I broke down after a month and started looking at different service providers on Yelp. When I came across Optimum and saw the before and after pics, I decided to give them a try. They charge $125 for the room I needed to have cleaned. Mike and his crew arrived on time, were very polite and fast. I work from home, so this was important to me, as I needed to schedule my day around the appointment. I admit, after they left I figured once the carpets dried we'd be able to see the stains again. This did not happen, in fact, stains that we thought would never come out (from the previous homeowners), were removed after Optimum's treatment. Two weeks later our dog had massive diarrhea and I really thought our carpets were shot. I called Optimum asking if they had any recommendations for cleaning and they provided several tips over the phone, without trying to sell me on their services again (that was appreciated!) The next day however, I knew that I needed them to come back out. If the pictures weren't so gross, I'd post the before and after, but let's just say no one would ever know this happened. There isn't even one mark from the 'disaster'! I have been recommending Optimum to friends and family ever since. THANK YOU Optimum, you guys ROCK!!! read more

Had an appointment and nobody showed up nor called to say they werent coming .....very unprofessional and a waste of my day waiting around for nothing. read more

I needed a carpet cleaning company to take care of an ice tea stain on our newer carpet. Mike which is one of the owners was extremely polite and helpful on the phone and very flexible to come over between my work meetings. He was professional and courteous and got rid of the stain. The price was extremely reasonable. I absolutely recommend this carpet cleaning company. read more

This company was very punctual, friendly and great with their communication. A team of 2 gentleman arrived early (always a plus when ready for it), said their hellos and went straight to work after being given a tour of the rooms they would be working on. At the end of their cleaning, they did show me a sample of the gross that lived in my carpets, which I love to see (gone). The only concern I had was that their machine is so powerful that it pulled the carpet back and up in our family room. It caused a small ripple which did go away on its own after a couple of days (phew). But I did find myself going around the edges of the room and noticing the carpet was not tucked in as it was before. It's not a major problem. All in all, if I needed more carpet cleaning done in the future - I would reach out to this company. Good quality, competitive price and very easy to work with. read more

My carpet was only a few weeks old when I spilled coffee all over the stairs and landing. I was so upset. I tried to remove it myself, but you could still see it the stains. I call Optimum and explained the situation and they were able to squeeze me in the same day in-between their scheuled appointments. I am so impressed with their service, they are amazing. I have used them in the past for my whole house and will continue to use them and highly recommend them to anyone looking for their carpets to be cleaned. read more

Wanted to get carpet cleaned, simple enough, right? I called for appointment and no answer. Submitted quote request form through their website on 8-24 and got the standard auto-reply that they will be in touch soon. Nobody contacted me so I emailed the contact given again on 8-27 and it is now 9-6 and no response. I hate leaving bad reviews but have no choice. I wish I could have experienced their actual carpet cleaning service but couldn't get that far. Maybe they are out of business?? read more

The Optimum crew did an excellent job on our 13 yr old carpet. It was cleaned much better than previous occasions from other vendors. Fast, reasonably priced, and got stains out that were years old. Optimum will be who we call from now on. read more

I have used Optimum Carpet Care several times in the past couple of years to do carpet cleanings after a tenant moves out of our rental units. And let me tell you, many times these carpets look like that's the end of their life and will need to be replaced...then these guys come in with their truck mounted equipment and after two or three hours, poof...to my amazement, the carpeting looks like it has been reborn, close enough to newly installed! I am always astonished at what they can get out...pet stains, coffee stains, wine stains, foot traffic patterns...all gone! Only once were they not able to remove a stain and that was some kind of a purple hair shampoo for blonde hair that was spilled in a very visible area. These guys are great and I would not use anyone else to clean our carpets. They are hard working, fairly priced (less than the big name outfits), honest and a family business run by three brothers. You always get the same guys and always the same results...which is a beautifully clean and fresh carpet to enjoy again. read more

By far the best cleaning my carpets have had. My daughter and I foster kitten litters and so our carpets are getting cleaned every four months or so. So glad I called Optimum this time and I will call no one else in the future. The carpets look and feel brand new. Optimum does excellent work. They even left a bottle of pet stain and pet smell deodorizer for us to use for spot cleaning. This company truly knows carpets and takes pride in their work!! read more

These guys will work their tails off for you! We've used them in the past for general cleaning, but when our basement flooded and almost ruined the carpet, the boys at Optimum really showed up. Forgetting that they did water restoration we set an appointment with a different company. After that company's technician didn't show up for two separate, quoted arrival times, we found the card for Optimum and gave them a call. With the recent rains I thought for sure they wouldn't be able to make it out to us. Mike answered and asked for a breakdown of what was going on. He agreed to arrive by 130 that afternoon. He was there early and started right away. Day one he worked his tail off for almost seven hours and saved every inch of our carpet. He stopped by the house the next two days to check the status on everything. On the third day he performed another quality cleaning and sanitation of the carpet. Not only did they save the carpet from mold, they also eliminated any odor and left it looking better than it did before the flood. Can't recommend them enough! Good, honest, knowledgeable people! read more

I have used Optimum carpet care several times for my own home and rentals. There is absolutely no one in the industry that does a better job. They are on time, respectful and the cleaning job is amazing. read more

This company is awesome! We thought our 20 year old carpeting would have to be replaced but we decided to try a cleaning and it turned out GREAT! A crew of many guys arrived right on time and spent 2 hours thoroughly cleaning all of our carpet including the stairs. I also thought it looked good right after but was sure the old stains would reappear and they didn't! Very nice crew - they turned my old dingy carpet into something that looks new again! read more

My dog got skunked the other night, and I wanted to get the carpets cleaned right away. I called them first thing in the morning, and they came out the next day. The carpets look brand new, and my house is now free from skunk smell. This company is affordable and did a great job. Highly recommended. read more

I had my carpets cleaned by Optimum Carpet Care and was shocked how they were able to turn my old old polyester carpet from dingy, to NEW! Believe all of the 5 stars, these guys are "as good as it gets!" read more

These guys were great! Got the pet stains out of my carpeting and made look like new again. Very professional and friendly service! Would definitely recommend them to anyone. read more

We were delighted with Mike and this service! They were prompt, professional and courteous. We had some pretty set in pet stains that they were able to remove entirely, and I'm not sure what magic they used on an old area rug, but it looks like new! We'd definitely recommend without reservation. read more

These guys are LIFESAVERS!! This is the second time I've had them over to clean my carpet in the past two months because of excessive pet stains. The first time these guys got rid of all odors and stains and some of the stains their competitors could not remove! There was also no lingering urine odors after they were done which were also very apparent when I had a different company come and clean the first time. It was a NO-BRAINER to have them come clean my carpet the second time. It was gross from having a foster dog that wasn't potty trained and having sick dogs and my own dog having bladder problems, but they to absolutely fantastic work and I will NEVER use another cleaner! These guys really do phenomenal work and I would recommend them time and time again. Don't hesitate to give them a call, there is no way you could possibly be disappointed!!!! read more

Optimum did an amazing job on our well loved carpeting! It practically sparkled when they were finished and difficult stains were completely removed. Trio of professional and kind brothers own this business. Would not hesitate to call them again. read more

I have had Optimum Carpet Care several times over the past years and they have always done an exceptional job but the last time was an emergency. After spilling hot pink nail polish on my beige carpet I tried to clean it myself. It was extremely time consuming and I wasn't make much progress. Michael came the next day and did his magic. You can't even tell where my "paint design" was. Thank you Michael, Steven and Joe. Once again you exceeded my expectations. read more

My wife and I had family in town over the holidays and one of our nephews spit up repeatedly on our family room carpet. The room smelled like rotten formula. Additionally our daughter threw up on our couch. Called and left a message for Optimum. Received a returned call the same day. Mike (the owner) said he had a cancellation and that he could come over that day. That was great. We weren't able to get home by the time he would arrive. He had to shovel the driveway and move our furniture around. Don't know if this is something that is normally done or not but we were vey appreciative. He was at our house for a few hours and the room looked great. Carpet and couches brand new. He gave specific directions on how long we should stay off. A coffee stain from a year ago is completely gone. A very thorough job. read more

What a great service. They cleaned our church carpet and removed spots that I didn't think would come out. They were on time, effective, and efficient. Would recommend to anyone. read more

We just moved into a new home for us and while the home was in very good condition, the carpeting did have a few stains and wear spots. Mike responded very quickly, came and fave me a quote along with s recommendation on another carpet issue I had. Once they came to clean the carpet the three brothers were very efficient, professional, and thorough. Mike also gave us very good information on maintaining not only the cleanliness but also the longevity of the carpet. We are very happy with the carpet cleaning job Optimum completed. I recommend Optimum for any carpet cleaning issues you may encounter. read more
