Before carpet cleaning 1:36pm.

I never give bad reviews but I am now. I filled out the online schedule and completed the form; my apartment number and additional information that this was C___ P____ Apartments. My scheduled time was 8am-1pm. Briefly, I received a text the technician was running late, and received another link to track ETA. He arrived at 1:10pm so I went downstairs to meet the technician. Anyway, he showed up at the other building which has a different address. I went over and I told him I was the other building. I then asked "Do have a portable carpet cleaner"? He said, "No". Well, I was pissed because this happened to my neighbor less than a year ago and they settled with him to reschedule another date. I did not, I called customer support and they put me on hold. The technician called his office in Rosedale MD and I am in Dundalk MD. Long story short, I went off using "FU" language because I am 66 years old and moved all my furniture and spring cleaned my apartment! All the technician had to do was show up and clean my carpets which probably would have taken him less than 30 minutes. I was not going to settle by rescheduling from a Friday to another date. With that note Stanley Steemer, you need to fix your customer service and dispatch system so your technicians are prepared to do their job! Your system sucks and this is not the first time you have been to this apartment complex! I went out and bought a carpet cleaner and did it myself. See below before and after pictures. I move all my furniture to the kitchen, bathroom, and closets. My body aches but I had enough adrenaline and strength to get it done! Never underestimate the power of a Senior Citizen! #StanleySteemer #SeniorCommunities

John the technician

I had an appointment schedule between 4pm-7pm, and by 6:50pm no one had called to say anyone was on their way. So I called and was told that they were running late. John, the technician arrived at 7:15pm and at that time he advised that he could not do our hard wood floors without stripping them. Then advised he could only clean our carpet with water because he had ran out of cleaner after completing an 8,000sq ft job prior to coming to my home. He proceeded to show us his previous jobs he had completed today on his tablet. Needless to say our carpets are still in need of cleaning and our floor still needs to be shined. There was no advanced notice that he was running late or that he couldn't do our carpet or floors. We're getting our floors done for the holidays and when I called they said that a member of management couldn't respond to my complaint for back for two days. This was terrible service and I will not be using Stanley Steemers again.

I needed my dryer duct cleaned. The crew that came was nice, but they did not have the appropriate equipment to reach my dryer vent. They attempted to clean it from the inside, used my central vacuum (I did offer to let them use it as all they had was an under powered portable) and with their brush, rod extensions, and air nozzle tip could not reach the end of my vent run. My vent meets building code - A company claiming to be able to clean a vent that is built to code should have the tools to do so. Their ladder would not even reach above one floor, at full extension landing in the middle of my home's windows. They did not have a bridge to safely use the ladder to bridge the window. Any painting company has bridges for just this purpose. How can a duct cleaning company not have this? How can their air hose and extension rods not reach the length of a duct that meets building code? I was charged for the cleaning, but the duct remained blocked. I called back, and they sent the same crew, with the same tools, and were unable to clear the blockage. Their solution? Offer a $25 consolation 'refund' because their 'reputation' is so important to them. I will include a copy of the email I received from their customer service below: xxxx xxxxx (name removed) 4:33 PM (1 hour ago) to me Hi Mr. XXXXX, Given the circumstances, a $25.00 refund is the only option available.  A full refund is not applicable because we were allowed to attempt to clean and we went out twice and tried.  We were willing to go into the attic for further access but were not allowed to.  If you do not want to accept this,  you don't have to, but I would like to give you something back as we do acknowledge your dissatisfaction.  If you dispute the charges, we will challenge it and the partial refund offer will be off the table.  Please let me know how you would like to proceed. Thank you, xxxxxx xxxxx (Name removed) Branch Support Administrator Baltimore | Rockville | Alexandria | Gainesville | Richmond | Hampton | Minneapolis Stanley Steemer | 5611 Wellington Rd. Ste.107 | Gainesville, VA 20155 P 800-257-8336 | D 571-364-7246 What is NOT mentioned is my vent is not easily accessed from the attic - and after they first attempted to clean from the outside and could not (ladder just a little too short, and no window bridge) and couldn't clear with standard tools, they wanted to enter my attic full of blown insulation. If I had known this was even a possible approach, I would not use them. Disrupting blown insulation, even using boards to bridge trusses, does not ensure the insulation will not be compressed and lessen the ability to insulate. I have worked as a career lieutenant for a municipal fire service for over 20 years and have been in many, many attics. I would clean my own vents, but I don't own a 24 foot ladder and I don't use work equipment for home use - hence me calling Stanley Steamer. I can only say that I am completely dissatisfied with the end result. So much for a guarantee. Well, I hope the fee they charged will be worth the review I am leaving - because I plan on leaving more on many more review sites. Everything I posted here is true, other than the location listed for me (privacy reasons I don't list my real location, but it is in MARYLAND, not CALIFORNIA)
