I’ve lived in Riverview for years, and after adopting a playful puppy, I called Chem‑Dry of Tampa when I began noticing lingering, sour pet odor in our family room carpet. We’d tried a big-box steam cleaner kit ourselves and even hired a generic “steam clean” service once, but the carpet stayed damp for over a day, and the smell returned within a week.
Chem‑Dry of Tampa arrived the next morning, and right away, I liked how they prioritized testing and inspection. They identified multiple zones where my pup had “accidents” but also deeper areas where unseen odor had leached into the carpet padding. They explained how their pet urine & odor removal expertise is more advanced than basic steam cleaning, because they use enzymatic treatments that neutralize odor molecules, not just mask them.
Their approach uses low‑moisture Hot Carbonating Extraction plus enzyme formulation. The process uses far less water than a standard steam deep clean. The result? My carpet was visibly refreshed and dried in about 2–3 hours, not 8+ or overnight as with other services.
What stood out was their Green‑Certified, non‑toxic solutions—safe for kids, pets, and indoor air quality. I felt confident knowing no harsh chemicals remained behind. Over the next few days, our indoor air felt cleaner, and I noticed fewer allergic reactions—less sneezing and congestion, which I believe comes from their better allergen & pet dander removal.
I also appreciated that they showed UV photos “before and after” of residual pet stains, and assured me the odor treatment reached the padding below. Compared to older steam methods, I’m impressed by how Chem‑Dry’s treatment seems more durable—weeks later, no returning mildew smell, no mustiness, no dampness issues.
Living in Riverview, with Florida humidity, rapid drying is a must. Chem‑Dry’s fast dry times, eco-safe formulas, deep pet odor removal skills, healthier indoor air, and longer‑lasting performance versus steam all delivered exactly what we needed.
