Ray did a fantastic job cleaning my carpets. His attention to detail and the amount of time he takes to get the job done well is truly appreciated. I would definitely hire him again. read more

Hi is incredibly rude and difficult to deal with. He does a good job cleaning the carpets but talks a lot and often in a condescending way. I won't use him again. read more

When we had new carpeting installed seven years ago, the salesperson told us that we always should have Ray of Sunshine care for it. One year later, our very old dog had a series of accidents on the carpet, so we reached out to Ray immediately. He did an amazing job of cleaning the mess, and there were no stains or smell after he was done. Two grandsons, three dogs, and one elderly cat later, we're still delighted with Ray's excellent results and his professionalism, and we highly recommend his work. read more

Ray has a deep passion for his industry and that brings forth a very exceptional diligence of completing the work to the best of his ability. His passion drives excellence with communicating to the customer why he does curtain things to provide the best out come. Ray removed stains from carpet, a chair and white couches. We are very satisfied and will use his services again if needed. Steve read more

Ray from Sunshine Cleaning Systems is a hyper-focused professional carpet and upholstery cleaner. He was able to add me into his busy schedule as an add-on as I had company coming over and showed up with a smile. Ray eats, sleeps, and breaths stain cleaning. He is more than passionate about getting stains out. If there is a stain-testing device, Ray has it. He will tell you all there is to know about the type of stain you have the type of fabric/carpet you have and how the two interact and use the correct product to remove that stain. He can tell you down to the molecular properties of the fibers and the type of stain you have. He will tell you if the stain is unable to be removed, able to be removed, and or the exact % he will be able to get out of the carpet/upholstery, as he knows all the molecular properties of fabric and cleaning products and how they interact with one another. He takes his work very seriously, and although he may not get my little jokes, he will treat your home and furnishings with the utmost respect and professionalism. I respect his talent and dedication. There is no question that he is the best and most knowledgeable carpet cleaner in the greater Boston area. read more

We were moving out of our rental condo of 2 years and needed the carpets professionally cleaned. My wife contacted Sunshine Cleaning Systems Ray DeMeo and arranged for the carpet cleaning service. Ray explained all the options at our disposal and we chose the best option suited for us. Gameday he showed up early and ready to go. He broke out his Ghostbusters stain detector and humidity meters and toured me around the condo asking relevant questions and recommended great solutions. After showing me around he cleaned the carpets exceptionally and in the time promised. I was very happy to have Ray take care of the carpets. He did an excellent job and he was quite funny and a joy to be around, mask on and socially distanced of course. If you want a professional carpet cleaner then look no further than Ray DeMeo. He is great! read more

I did NOT use this company only had a phone conversation. I definitely understand what people are saying about him talking down and being rude. He talked over me the entire time on the phone then told me it would be at least $400 for a 300 sq foot area which is double the 4 other cleaners I spoke with. After I told him I wanted to call everyone back that I called (which I did) he said "ok so your all set is this something you can't afford?" What I can't afford is to listen to your rude attitude any longer. Might want to learn some customer service skills and how to talk to people and listen to their needs before you jump down their throats. read more

We had Ray come to clean the cushions on a chair and sofa he was on time very professional and extremely knowledgeable he explain the process to us and also educated us on products that can do more harm than good. I was very impressed and would use him again as well as recommended him to others we were very pleased with his work PatC Newton read more

I'm sure all these reviews come from the relatives and personal friends. The next review comes from a customer, who payed and experienced firsthand. Following this website I hired this company and I have to say it's been the worst experience in my life. Ray is not profesional when it comes to do his job, I remember back in time I used to rent the special equipment to clean my rugs in a day and I do remember I used to get them cleaner than this guy did, all these fake reviews made yelp a site I cannot trust from now on, my experience with this sunshine cleaning system is bad, I don't want to hear about again in my life, I never saw somebody with a mediocre attitude like this man. I said to my family, next summer will be cleaning our rugs in the yard, but following reviews on yelp, no more! read more

Ray is amazing. My dog had diarrhea poo-pooed all over the kid's carpeted bedroom, dragging her bum-bum in the process. She knows how to add insult to injury. Ray was over within 2 hours of my phone call--after his work, there was no stain nor stench. All of this only took a mere 20 minutes! A bonus--he noticed how our doors squeaked going in/out of the house. I told him I use WD-40 on it every few months; he just shook his head and returned with a magical little bottle of wet grease. He proceeded to remove 2 doors off their hinges, lube them up, and replace them...all gratis. That, my friends, is customer service. Going above and beyond is what Sunshine Cleaners is all about and why Ray is a Certified Master Cleaner (and door squeaker stopper). read more

I called Ray on the Sunday morning of July 4 weekend after waking up to a flood in my den. My washing machine had malfunctioned and flooded most of the downstairs area. Ray was one of the few places open on a Sunday and show up within 30 minutes. He is professional and courteous. He came with all of the necessary equipment and quickly got to work. He removed the water and then the carpet. He provided us with great advice about what to do next. He even called the a couple of days later to see how things were going with the damage repair. Ray takes a lot of pride in his work and cares very much about his customers. This is pretty rare these days. I highly recommend him. read more

Ray, I have worked with ray at Sunshine Cleaning for over 5 years on many of my properties. he shows up on time and is very detail oriented in his work. He takes a lot of pride in his work, which is why I use him over and over again. I highly recomend using ray and his company for all your carpets, tile work and furniture. Eric Friedberg read more

I highly recommend Sunshine Cleaning when you need to get your carpets cleaned. Ray is professional and thorough from returning the first call promptly to following up to make sure I was satisfied with the job he did. His rates are very reasonable and the quality of the job is very high. He even gave me some helpful information about my carpets and how to keep them looking good. It's nice to see great service still exists. I had my carpets done in October and have since recommended his services to several people I know. read more

If you are reading this you probably already got an online quote from Stanley Steamers (or equivalent). Most likely the online quote looks appealing due to the price. Make sure you read the reviews on the carpet cleaning superstore before you book them! Ray just cleaned our stairs in the South End which is four grueling flights of stairs. It is a real challenging location for any service person and Ray pulled it off and did an amazing job! The price that Ray quoted us was exactly what we paid, not a penny more and none of that up-selling BS that you get with the superstore cleaners. Another major benefit was that after the job Ray left a bunch of high powered fans to dry our stairs and avoided that musty wet smell and defeating the purpose of the cleaning in first place. The ultimate reason I went with Ray was accountability. Since he is the owner and the person executing the work, he wouldn't leave job unless you were satisfied. Whereas when you have some guy come by that makes $10/hour regardless of your satisfaction, that is the quality of service you get. We probably ended up paying about $50 more than the superstore price and I will gladly pay that again, and recommend everybody else does the same. read more

I can't say enough good things about working with Ray and Sunshine cleaning! We had a playroom rug that was well past acceptable looking/smelling - dogs, coffee stains, who knows what else embedded in there...and Ray made it look nearly new. Ray is professional, friendly and diligent..if he was in the White House, the world world be a better place really. He not only replied the same day to our request for a free estimate, he also confirmed his appointment the day before, showed up when he said he would, and exceeded our expectations in doing the cleaning. Again, I can't recommend using this service enough..he made a rug that was well past its expiration date (with kids, dogs, and food stains) like new again, and he did it cheerfully and affordably. He also provided us with education on what type of rug would work for our family in the future. A great service, done in a cheerful and friendly way.. read more

We needed a carpet cleaner urgently (accident related to colonoscopy prep). Sunshine Cleaning fit us in the next day. Ray's politeness, professionalism, and attention to detail were exemplary. The cleaning job he did was incredible! The stains from the fecal matter are completely gone from our light beige carpets!! More than that, the carpets are definitely cleaner than they have been after other professional carpet cleaners have been here over the years. He had several speciallized applications and tools that addressed our varilous issues. Sunshine is more expensive then the average one-size-fits all cleaner but the quality is worth the price; the job was worth every penny. This operation is first rate! I just realized that my location will seem funny when this company is based in Waltham. I live in Chicago but the carpet cleaning job I needed was in Belmont. I am visititng to help a family member. read more

Ray was down right amazing and the carpets now are the proof! After many puppy filled accident years as well as however many feet shuffling across our (rented) floor we knew we had to touch things up for the sake of our security deposit. We didn't want to totally cheap out since we still have to live there and all, but at the same time were worried about the cost. Ray gave a ballpark over the phone after I described the place (around 300) and when he came by to do the work, the cost was less, less is always good. He took his time, made sure everything was done right, and the best part really was the fans he left behind. Instead of having to worry about somewhat damp carpet for a couple of days they were almost 100% dry by the end of the day when he came to get them. I can't recommend Ray and Sunshine enough and while hopefully I'll never have use for his services again (I think the dog finally gets the concept of inside vs. outside) I know exactly where to turn when/if I do. read more

Ray did a great job of estimating the work that needed to be done on our carpets, all the while explaining what the issues were with the stains etc, and how they would be handled. Ray was extremely considerate of the household - and took time to engage the dog (he even asked about him on his follow up phone call!). Ray did what he said he was going to do, displayed enthusiasm for the work, and showed a great deal of knowledge that surpassed anything I've ever seen in previous cleaning crews - a true expert! Highly motivated to do a great job, and if you hire Sunshine Cleaning Systems, you'll also be as happy as we are with the work that was performed at a reasonable fee.

Two years ago, our sump failed flooding a finished basement. I had recently purchased new carpeting and called the rug company. They recommended Ray. He showed up in a professional truck loaded with equipment and went to work. He was here working tirelessly for four days moving furniture, removing wet mats under the rugs, and managing all that goes with a basement flood. He saved a very expensive rug and really the day! Our basement has recovered. He called last month politely asking if we wanted the rug cleaned as it's been two years. I said yes immediately and asked him to clean additional rugs in the house both runners and room carpeting. They look Great!! He explained the issues with various spots and removed them all. I am asking him to come back to clean our bathroom and hallway tile and grout lines. His pricing for the basement flood was less than remediation companies (I know) and very reasonable for the maintenance cleaning. I highly recommend Ray. Brad C. read more

Ray did an awesome job. I needed my sectional couch cleaned which he did perfectly. I originally went to his website to request a quote, two minutes later he called me back and told me he could come out the next morning. He was professional and courteous. He uses all the newest and best supplies and is constantly going to training seminars and certification classes to keep up to date on the new technology in the industry. I would and will recommend Sunshine to anybody needing their couches, carpeting or even grout work in their bathroom cleaned. Thanks Ray. I am not a family member, friend or employee of Sunshine, Luciana A is out of her mind and probably works for one of his competitors. read more

This company is worth doing business with. This Ray fellow, he is amazing.

Amazing service by an amazing guy. Ray is extremely professional and easy to work with.

I highly recommend Sunshine Cleaning Systems and Ray for wall-to-wall carpet cleaning. He was easy to communicate with, got back to us quickly and came when he said he would. Ray explained exactly what he was going to do and answered our many questions. He was the most thorough carpet cleaner we've ever had and took multiple steps to prepare and clean the carpets. They came out beautifully and some of the spots he thought wouldn't come out actually did get removed. read more

We needed urgent service and found sunshine cleaning after reading some positive reviews online. Ray came within a few hours of our call and spent considerable time cleaning up a tough job. He also offered to come back about a week later to touch up a fee spots, which we greatly appreciated. It's clear that superiorcustomer service and satisfaction are Ray's top priority and we highly recommend Sunshine Cleaning Systems for any job, large or small. read more

Ray was fantastic. He was right on time, very pleasant, and explained everything to me clearly. He made sure to tell me how and why he was doing what he did, and went about the work efficiently and very neatly. He took the time to field any criticism of his work after the fact, but I didn't have any to offer. I'd recommend him to anyone. read more

Ray provides an exceptional service. He is very knowledgeable about carpet fibers and stains which results in a beautifully clean carpet. He takes great pride in his work which shows in the end result. He is very responsive to inquiries and arrives on time. We are repeat customers and will be using him for all future needs. read more

I would not suggest this company to anyone. I signed up for yelp just to write a review and I didn't even receive any service! I am upset with the way Ray handled his business through the phone, so upset that I had to hang up. I left a message earlier calling about a rate. I am from Texas there are so many options and this is normal when your calling around for carpet cleaners. Sunshine was the only company that came up in Waltham so I thought I would try them. on the phone Ray talked down to me, telling me that his company only cleans for high end and even asked me if I rent or own. I feel completely insulted. For him to even begin a conversation like that is beyond me. I am disgusted. The funny thing is we DO rent. Also my husband plays for one of the Boston sports teams. Nice one Ray! read more

Ray cleaned the carpets in my home and did a great job. I've got a dog who can be extremely messy. Ray's professional and did the job quickly. I highly recommend Ray & Sunshine Cleaning! read more

Just superb! Ray was the consummate professional, from wearing shoe covers to asking for honest feedback at the end. The results of his work were nothing short of stunning -- my carpet and upholstery look like new. I most certainly will be calling Sunshine for all my fabric cleaning needs and would wholeheartedly recommend them to a friend. read more

Ray is excellent. We found him on Yelp and had him clean a chair, an ottoman and a large run. He showed up on time and took a few minutes at the outset to examine the furniture and rug, come up with a plan and talk to me about what he was going to do and why he was going to do it. He takes a lot of pride in his work and is the results were excellent. More than that, he's an exceedingly kind man who's built his own business. We will use him in the future and have recommended him to friends. read more

My fiance just moved in and the room that had been lived in by friends and tenants for years had carpet best described as dingy. Ray came in on a day that was so humid, it looked like the walls were sweating. A few hours later when we returned from Ikea (not bad at 9AM on a Tuesday) that dingy brown rug was back to its light beige self. Ray was lovely to deal with, personable, professional and did a wonderful job. We would recommend him without reservation. read more

I chose Ray from all of the positive yelp reviews. He explained the service he would provide and set up a date and time. He even asked which side of the garage he should park behind. Pretty sure the big companies don't do this. He was thorough and hard working. He left his fans and returned the following day to check his work and pick up fans. He cleaned a chair we bought at an estate sale ( think flower uphostery with avocado faux fur).. Now instead of vintage it looks new! Very happy customer. read more

Ray visited our home and provided a competitive estimate. He did a wonderful job and cleaned our rugs back to new. He was a very hard worker and did a great job. read more

"My husband and I have hired Sunshine Cleaning Systems multiple times and without any doubt have always been highly pleased. Their quality of work is superior - when finished, the carpet WILL be clean - something that cannot be said for other carpet cleaning firms. Ray DeMeo, the owner, is a wealth of knowledge about carpets and their proper care and, for that matter, the cleaning and maintenance of floors, in general. While we have yet to engage their services, when we do want our furniture cleaned, Sunshine Cleaning Systems will be the only firm that we will consider. Ray's standards of professionalism are quite high; he will do everything within his power to make his clients happy. Yet, he is willing to walk away from a potential job if, upon inspection, he feels he cannot properly perform the work. Sunshine Cleaning Systems views their patrons as clients and not just as customers. read more

I set-up an appointment with Ray to clean the upholstery on our 5 year-old couch and chair. Ray was very professional and courteous in arranging the appointment, and called the day before arriving to verify our meeting. He arrived promptly on time and did a great job cleaning our couch. He also threw-in a free bottle of spot-remover, which was an unexpected bonus. I would definitely recommend Sunshine Cleaning Systems! read more

Ray did a great job on the two staircases we have. They were covered in dog fur from the last tenant's dogs, and he made the rugs look new. The condition of the rugs had been really bad. The staircase smelled like a wet dog (and I like dogs but this was bad). As he cleaned them, the water came up black. As I mentioned, they were in rough shape. Now both staircases smell great and there is absolutely no dog odor. They look great too. He was very professional, and there were no gimmicks charging market price. Ray doesn't charge extra for individual services like other places do. He charges a flat fee and was very upfront and honest to us about that, which I appreciated. Other places said they charged $4 a stair, but then I found out that didn't cover everything; the vacuuming, material costs, etc. He also inspected the floors and told us that there was moisture build up in one of the hallways, so we were sure to tell our landlord about it, and maybe save him some money down the road! read more

Ray is one of a kind!!! He is meticulous, thorough, and professional. Our carpets were typical-kid dirty and with his elbow grease and machines, Ray restored our ivory colored living room carpet to its original beauty. Saved us a lot of money, as I was actually considering pitching it and getting a new one!! Simply amazing. Can't say enough good things about this guy. He knows he stuff, loves what he does, takes pride in his excellent work, and really cares. It is a pleasure doing business with him and I highly recommend Sunshine and in particular, Ray. read more

I hired Sunshine Cleaning precisely because I've known Mr DeMaio for some time. He has always been known for honest, thorough work with an uncanny attention to detail. His reputation with me was maintained and elevated after the cleaning he did on my 6 year old couch. It really came back to life thanks to Sunshine Cleaning. Thanks again. read more

2nd time we've used Sunshine Cleaning. Most thorough carpet cleaner we've ever had. He goes over each area, tells you which spots will come out, and which will not. A good 2 1/2 hours cleaning. Most other companies we've had are in and out in 1/2 hour (1200 square feet of wall to wall carpet). Ray is amazing. Yes, he may be a little more expensive than those Groupon's you get, but it's well worth the money. read more

We just used Sunshine Cleaning Systems to professionally clean rugs in a rental unit we have and they did a tremendous job. The first guy we were going to use bailed and I called Ray who fit us in, with just days to spare before the new tenants moved in. He did a great job and when he came back the next day to pick up the fans he had left to dry the rugs, he noticed a few spots that didn't come out and he redid them. I thought that was great customer service and would recommend him. As for the price, I am not sure how they compare. It was $415 for 2 rooms and a hallway, but there were carpeted stairs as well which may have added to the cost. read more
