"It went well. We had an issue with their equipment breaking down and when they left, they left a big spot on the carpet where the solution had spilled but they came back right away and fixed it within like 24 hours. So that was okay. Just one person came out to do this job. I would say it was average. I don't think that they spent a lot of time on the carpet. To be quite honest, it felt like they were kind of there and gone considering how much there was to do. I was not impressed with how deep the cleaning was. I did most of the moving and I know they don't do a lot of it but they didn't go out of their way to make any extra effort. Even if it was just moving a table a few feet, they would just maybe do under it but they wouldn't actually move it. There was something there by one of the chairs that would have come out with some steam cleaning and a a little bit of solution pretty easily and it didn't come out when they cleaned it. Until I had to do it after they left and it came right out so I don't think the cleaning was especially high quality."
