Home ⇒ Carpet Cleaning in Evanston
Evanston has a housing mix that asks for different things at different addresses. Lakefront homes near Sheridan Road hold a lot of summer humidity. Older frame houses on tree-lined streets in north Evanston have original hardwood under wall-to-wall carpet in upstairs bedrooms. Northwestern University rental turnover drives a heavy wave of move-out cleans every June and September. South Evanston has a denser apartment mix. At Carpet Cleaning Group, we are a family-owned professional carpet cleaning company serving Chicago since 2014, and Evanston is one of our regular suburban stops as part of our Chicago-area service.
Four patterns shape carpet care here.
✅ Lakefront humidity. Summer drying takes longer near the lake than in inland suburbs. The same lake-effect moisture that makes summer evenings comfortable also keeps carpet pads damp longer after a cleaning. We plan for it and adjust airflow during the appointment.
✅ Vintage frame homes. Older padding holds decades of accumulated dust, dander, and dust mite waste. A surface clean does not reach what has settled into the underlayment. Deep extraction does.
✅ Student rental cycles. June and September turnover near campus drives a heavy season of tenant-vacate cleans, often on tight timelines tied to lease handovers and security deposit deadlines.
✅ Pet households. Many Evanston homes have dogs and cats. Sub-surface treatment for accidents that have soaked into padding is routine work for us here, not a specialty add-on.
Our professional carpet cleaning services are available throughout the city, from the lakefront blocks east of Sheridan, to the vintage homes in north Evanston, to the apartment-heavy south side.
Our process follows IICRC S100, the industry standard.
Dry time runs 6 to 12 hours. Near the lake in summer, plan toward the longer end.

Worth it: pet accidents in older padding, allergy-driven cleans in vintage homes, pre-listing freshening, student-area move-out turnovers, and area rugs that have not been professionally cleaned in years.
Fine to handle yourself: small fresh spills caught quickly, light surface freshening between visits.
Past saving: severely water-damaged carpet, decade-old pet damage to subfloor. We tell you honestly when replacement is the better call. That kind of straight talk is what keeps families calling us back.

We will definitely be calling again for service!Posted on Google Julie GrahamTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently had a large sofa cleaned by Carpet Cleaning Group (CCG). The experience was very positive. The sofa was 10 years old with and had never been professionally cleaned. There were a couple stains that I thought would be difficult to clean and, unfortunately, there was a bit of an old-dog smell. Herman and David did a fantastic job! The sofa looked brand new and smelled great when they were finished! I would certainly use them again and would highly recommend them to anyone who needs a reasonably-priced, professional upholstery cleaning!Posted on Google Susan CapronTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I'm a repeat customer! CCG is always on time, so organized and does an amazing job. I've trusted them with my Persian rugs, my area rugs, and now my sofa and love seat! Zach and Dave made my eggshell sofa bright again (and got rid of the dog hair), no musty smell. The technicians are always a pleasure to interact with. Professional, courteous and efficient. I'm a fan! They're coming back closer to fall to do our installed stair runner and landings...their quote was quick and clear. Lots of love for CCG! Cleaning gurus.Posted on Google Jeanne MarieTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Zach and his partner came on time and did an amazing job cleaning my couch. Would recommend.Posted on Google Michal WilczewskiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Zach and Jose did an amazing job on our basement carpet, sectional couch and rug. The basement carpet had water damage from a storm but they were able to get all of it out. The couch was a disaster from my ikids but it looks great now!Posted on Google Jim EspostoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Zack and David are great. Highly recommended. I’ve been using them for years.Posted on Google Brian's VideosTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had a great experience with carpet cleaning group. Zach, my technician was super nice and did a fantastic job. We were just moving into our new home and greatly appreciated his attention to detail and hard work — despite my broken AC that was making it extremely uncomfortable in the apartment. Would come back for service again!Posted on Google Andrew TTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We used Carpet Cleaning Group again for our couch and they were amazing. Zach and Joe did a wonderful job and were so nice and polite. Communication is easy and we will definitely be using them again.Posted on Google Lainey HawkinsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a sofa cleaned, couple of chairs and two throw pillows. Our little Westie loves to find places to pee that he thinks we will not find. In one case, we had not....so not sure how long the spot had been there. Unfortunately, it did not come out.....but our dog had also thrown up on the sofa and that stain came out. Overall, the sofa looked great.....just don't wait as long as we did to get it cleaned. We also had German and Oleg clean two chairs that are 20 + years old and they came out beautifully! German and Oleg were very respectful, called 30 minutes in advance of the appointment to let me know they were on their way and cleaned up everything as if they were never there.Posted on Google Karla Ortiz
