Why Chem-Dry
Drier
Our process uses 80% less water than typical steam cleaning so when we clean carpets, they dry within hours, not days.
Cleaner
Our delivery system uses tiny, carbonated bubbles to penetrate deep into your carpet’s fibers, resulting in a thorough cleaning with no dirt-attracting soap left behind.
Healthier
We use a carbonated cleaning solution – The Natural® – to give you a healthier home.
Carpets Dry in only 1-2 Hours
When you use less water, carpets simply dry faster. Instead of using gallons of water like typical steam cleaning, Chem-Dry uses only a fraction of the water. This low-moisture process, combined with our natural carbonating cleaning solution, penetrates deep into carpets and not only leaves carpets cleaner, but reduces dry times to a couple of hours rather than a couple of days. So you and your family can get back to enjoying life in your cleaner, healthier home more quickly.
A Deeper Carpet Cleaning
Our goal at Chem-Dry is to help you spend less time worrying about whether your carpets and furniture are clean and more time enjoying your family in a healthy home. Chem-Dry uses a specially designed cleaning solution that employs the bubbly properties of carbonation to penetrate deep into your carpet, breaking up dirt and grime and lifting it to the surface, similar to the way club soda removes stains from a shirt. We then follow up with state-of-the-art equipment using our unique amplified heat extraction process to pull the dirt and water from your carpet, leaving behind a truly deep-down clean.
Steam cleaning and other carpet cleaners that use soapy water and chemicals often leave behind some of the sticky soaps that can attract dirt, resulting in your carpets getting dirty again faster and requiring more frequent professional cleanings. Since it doesn’t contain any soaps, detergents, or harsh chemicals, Chem-Dry’s core cleaner, The Natural, does not attract dirt, so your carpets stay cleaner longer.
A Healthier Home
Chem-Dry offers a healthier clean on two levels: first, our products don’t contain harsh soaps or phosphates and second, by using less water we are helping combat mold and mildew growth in and under your carpet.
Chem-Dry has an extensive catalog of effective carpet cleaning products, including our primary cleaning solution, The Natural. The Natural contains zero phosphates or harsh detergents.
Unlike Chem-Dry’s process, typical steam cleaning not only utilizes harsh soaps and chemicals to clean your carpets, but uses a heavy amount of water that often soaks through to the carpet backing, creating a breeding ground for mold and mildew. By taking a tip from Mother Nature, Chem-Dry uses a carbonating cleaning process that will leave your carpets and upholstery cleaner and helps promote a healthier home for you and your family. Thanks to our low-moisture, amplified Hot Carbonating Extraction system, we can offer you a deeper, healthier carpet and upholstery cleaning that you can feel confident in.
Since 1977 Chem-Dry has been dedicated to helping families live more healthfully … because a clean home is a happy, healthy home.
Choose Chem-Dry for a healthier carpet and upholstery cleaning and a more refreshed home that the whole family can enjoy.
Cape Fear Chem-Dry Reviews
Excellent Service. Derick did an excellent job cleaning my carpets. He was professional and courteous . I will definitely use Chem-Dry again !
I couldn’t be happier with the results from Cape Fear Chem-Dry! Derek did an amazing job cleaning my carpeted bedrooms, stairs, love seat, and sofa- leaving everything looking fresh and spotless. He even worked wonders on removing the dog odor from our loveseat and sofa. So static with the results and his friendly, professional service!

I am amazed at the magic that Cape Fear Chem-Dry was able to accomplish! We were trying to get our carpets cleaned before the holidays. Scheduling with them was a breeze!
I will be the first to admit, our carpets were BAD. We have a senior dog who struggled with relieving himself in places that are not outside. The technician came in and showed me the spots (which show up using black light) in the most non-judgmental way while recommending an add-on for pet urine. I was mortified but knew that we would want those gone! He was quick and communicative and incredibly professional. Our carpets look incredible! And I think I had probably gone “nose blind” to our home because I feel like it smells way better too! My only regret is that I now can’t stand the sight of the dog perpetrator inside without a diaper 🤣
Thank you Cape Fear Chem-Dry!
Derek came to our house to clean our six area rugs. He tested his cleaner on each rug to make sure the cleaner would not damage the rug. Explained his process and answered our questions. Derek is knowledgeable about his work and made a few suggestions to us about our rugs. We are very pleased with his work.
Derek was beyond professional. He scheduled us in two days and we saw the dirty water after the cleaning was complete. The best part was the value, he earned my trust and a well deserved tip.
Proudly Serving Wilmington, Leland, Carolina Beach, Castle Hayne, Wrightsville Beach, Porters Neck, Myrtle Grove, Bolivia, and the surrounding areas!
