I was completely satisfied with the carpet cleaning services from Distinctive Cleaning and Restoration, and that's hard to say with carpet cleaning companies. (I've often heard reasons from other companies about why they can't do something with carpet cleaning, or they do the job quickly, and through the interactions, you can tell that the best effort wasn't given.) That's not true with my experience here. Distinctive prepared me for their visit thoroughly. The communication couldn't have been better. Alan was careful around the freshly painted trim and careful when cleaning the edges of the carpet, which can get so dusty. He gave his best effort with every room. I will be using them again and recommending them!

I recommend this company. Before I knew of this company I had to take my Orientals to Indianapolis to be cleaned properly, now Fort Wayne has Distinctive Cleaning & Restoration. Their specialized equipment combined with attention to detail and professionalism will give you the best possible treatment and results for your carpets. The owners and staff are wonderful to work with, and will provide you the convenience of drop off and pickup. Fort Wayne needed this company, and I for one am very glad they're here. Thanks again, the carpet looks like new!

A member of our family works in a factory and neglected to take his shoes off before going up our stairs, hallway, and bedroom. I thought those black footprints would never come out! Alan took one look and said they could get them out. And they did! I’m adding before and after photos of one of the worst areas.

I can’t thank you enough for bringing our tile flooring back to its original look and shine. I wish I would have taken a before and after picture but we had a lot of area to cover. Alan and his team were very professional and in no time the transformation was done. Thank you again for everything and we will definitely be back!

Outstanding service!! My carpet looks brand new!!! Alan and Joshua were very respectful and professional. They offered recommendations and went the extra mile to make sure our home was protected. They will be our first choice for all our cleaning needs in the future.
They even called us the next day to see if everything was okay and made it clear that if we needed anything, they would take care of it.

Distinctive Cleaning and Restoration did an amazing job at cleaning the carpet and getting pet stains and odors out. They did a wonderful job and asked if we wanted to try cleaning on the vinyl linoleum. We were amazed as it looked brand new. We will have them come out and do the rest as it made huge difference. So good! Thank you

I bought a vintage wool rug at a flea market which my dog immediately peed on. Spoke with Audrey, communication with this business was great and thorough. Picked up the rug today and it looks amazing and is completely odor-free. Just have to make sure the dog can't get to it again. Highly recommend this business.

We had our carpet cleaned and spots in it from pet and they did a great job! We also had 3 wool rugs that had been pet abused cleaned and they look like new!
I highly recommend them for your cleaning needs. The price also reflects a in shop deep cleaning of our expensive wool rugs that had some pretty bad stains and odors from dogs.

We had an amazing experience with Distinctive Cleaning & Restoration! They came to our new house before we moved in and did a fantastic job on our carpet and vinyl floors. The carpets looked brand new - fresh, spotless, and completely odor-free. They went above and beyond. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and friendly service really stood out. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for top-notch floor cleaning!

I can't say enough good things about this carpet cleaning company! Absolutely the best! My carpet looks new again. We thought we would need to replace it, but not now. Have had other companies but they were just a joke compared to the quality cleaning we received from Distinctive. I have already passed their name to friends and will happily continue to do so!

Years ago, we hired a well-known national carpet cleaning company, but unfortunately, the results were disappointing. They saturated the carpet with too much water, which took several days to dry. Afterward, the carpet looked flat and never regained its original appearance. Distinctive Cleaning totally changed my perception of how carpets can be cleaned and made to look brand new! Alan and Josh are a dynamic team. They are kind, articulate and professional. I was concerned about my beautiful hardwood floors being damaged by water. Alan and his wife Audrey explained their technique and put my mind at ease. Highly recommend this group!

Our white carpet looks brand new. Audrey is a great communicator in regards to our appointment. Alan and his team arrived on time. They kept us informed in regards to the spots on the carpet and made sure we were satisfied with the cleaning before they left. Alan and his team also cleaned the tile in our 4 season room. The tile looks brand new! This was the first time we used Distinctive Cleaning and we will use them again.

I may be one of the pickiest people when it comes to cleanliness especially smells. Our cat had a few accidents on our brand new basement carpet which I was about ready to just tear up because I couldn’t get the smell out. I researched for weeks to find the best carpet cleaners calling everyone in town. Although they were more expensive than others, their process, professionalism and their attention to detail is everything I paid for . I can’t smell a single odor in our carpet and I expected it to be better but not gone! They did it. Worth every penny. Thank you for being so detail oriented. It’s hard to find good work anymore, but I will be a life long customer. So impressed I will be telling everyone

Highly recommend! Fairfield Galleries recommended Distinctive Cleaning for upholstery cleaning- had a sectional cleaned and it looks amazing. Alan also cleaned an area of carpet in front of the sectional that was dirtier than the rest of the carpet, that did not come clean when cleaned by another company about a year ago. It came out great as well. Will definitely be using them soon for all our carpeting

Distinctive did a great job! They took out stains I didn't think would come out and took the time to make sure the carpet was cleaned properly as well as sprayed for pet smells. It looks like brand new carpet!! Would highly recommend and use them again!!

Alan and his team did a great job. The scheduling process was easy, he arrived on time and did a fantastic job with the cleaning of our carpet and sofa. There was no odor and the dampness was much less than I've experienced with other companies. I would highly recommend.

I used Distinctive Cleaning to clean my carpet, upholstery and my epoxy garage floor. I see multiple reviews for carpet so I will share my experience for the upholstery and epoxy floor. Alan spent a lot of time on my sofa and chairs. Because we have dogs that enjoy spending time on the sofa, the dog hair was embedded into the fabric. It had been years since I had this sofa looked at. The dining chairs had multiple spots as well. I could tell that he really cared about getting everything clean. Our garage floor was also very dirty from the winter months. It looked so nice after the cleaning. Alan is very conscientious and meticulous. He cares about the work he does and wants to do a great job for his customers.

Distinctive Cleaning came out and cleaned my Aunt's carpet; what a beautiful job they did. And I'm not just saying that, I told Alan the carpet looked like new when they were done, and I seriously mean that! Stanley Steamer came out and did a shit job and told them to come back out and clean it again, they never cleaned around her dining room table. Distinctive came out and moved the table and cleaned the area. They didn't have to do that, and like I said it looked beautiful. I highly recommend them! They charged me less than Stanley Steamer and the job was 10 times better. They also took some rugs and oriental ones to the shop to clean them. I'm anxious to see how they come out! They are also going to clean her tile floor when they come back. Very satisfied and will post how the rugs come out!

Holy smokes!!! You want the cleanest carpets and the nicest people??? Please call Alan and Audrey. From commercial cleaning (I met them as an employee at Joseph Decuis, Alan cleans the restaurant and Emporium). I’ve recommend them to friends with great success and finally got to personally use their services. Masterful job on short-ish notice. They do more than just carpets! Couch cushions and furniture, animal stain/odor remediation, and even heirloom rugs. Wonderful people doing wonderful work.

I have owned and loved this wool oriental rug for 35 years. It has worn like iron, except for the fringe, which has been caught more than a few times by a vacuum. I'm thrilled that Distinctive Cleaning & Restoration used all their TLC to return it to like-new condition. They uniquely have huge equipment to shake years of dirt loose before cleaning and drying. Then, they transported the rug to a restoration specialist to even and secure the damaged fringe. Finally, I upgraded the padding (worth every penny). I love the fresh smell of clean wool, and I'm looking forward to many more years with this wonderful rug. Thank you DC&R owners Alan and Audrey - you are the best!!

Distinctive Cleaning did an excellent job at cleaning our carpet before we moved into our new house. Before the cleaning there were noticeable dark areas in the cream colored carpet, and now you cannot even tell that they were there. Audrey did an amazing job at communicating with me every step of the way which is very important to me. Alan arrived on-time and I am very happy with the results. Overall this was an excellent, stress-free experience which I feel like can be rare these days. I enjoyed working with a small, locally owned company and will definitely hire them again in the future. Thank you!

Alan and his team are true masters of carpet cleaning! Distinctive's ability to freshen up a space is highly professional and never disappoints. Without fail, they communicate clearly, swiftly and respectfully. We consider them part of our branding team since they help us ensure a clean and well-maintained environment at our venue. Distinctive's understanding of the work and time it takes for us to prepare for and re-stage after a cleaning is also very helpful for us and our workflow.

Unbelievably impressed with Distinctive Cleaning! Our basement flooded a few weeks ago when we had the torrential rains. We got in contact with Alan from Distinctive. He came over promptly, was very professional and gave us a detailed run down of what needed done. He put the necessary equipment in our basement and came over every day to check on the status of the flooring and walls. We now have new padding installed, which he organized, and freshly cleaned carpet. Couldn’t be happier. We will continue to use Distinctive for future carpet cleanings. Thank you very much for your hard work!

Our basement had water damage from the Tuesday/Wednesday torrential rains. I called Distinctive Cleaning and Restoration and the were at my home the next morning. That was amazing since so many basements were flooded. Alan also recommended a flooring g company and then he contacted them - including taking a padding sample to them. AAA Best Flooring was also awesome. Distinctive Cleaning and Restoration deserve the 5-star rating!

We used Distinctive Cleaning & Restoration to clean our carpets and a couple of natural fabric couches that had not been touched for many years. The results were dramatic and we are glad we tried this route vs buying new couches. Our carpet takes a beating with our dogs and cats. Once again, the results were excellent. We will be using this company on a regular basis moving forward to maintain the carpet and couches. Distinctive was very professional and thorough. I would recommend them without hesitation.

Very impressed with our carpets. Above and beyond great service. Audrey got back with me to schedule an appt and gave me step by step process of how their visit would go. Alan did a fantastic job. He was very thorough and made sure the job was well done. He even got the orange spots from a spilled drink out of off white carpet. The 13+ carpet looked brand new after he was finished. Will definitely use Distinctive Cleaning for our future needs. Thank you Alan and Audrey!!

Distinctive Cleaning did a marvelous job on our carpets (4 rooms & hallway). They were professional, on-time, took time to remove any spots, cleaned-up after themselves & left the carpets looking as new as when we 1st purchased & had them installed about 3 years ago!!! We definitely recommend them & will use them again (in fact, we have already scheduled them for our next cleaning)...

I am amazed at how clean my 24-year-old carpet is after Distinctive Cleaning's service! With kids and pets, I was just resigned to some stains sticking around forever. But Alan is persistent and a perfectionist and my carpet looks brand new! He removed paint & other art supplies, plant dirt, coffee stains, tea stains, blood, pet stains, mystery stains, and the general dirt that comes from a family living in a home. I have a fancy carpet cleaner and I've had other professional companies clean my carpet, but by far this is the most professional and complete service I have ever received. I have already scheduled my next carpet cleaning appointment with Distinctive Cleaning, and I will be a loyal customer going forward. Their courtesy, professionalism, and dedication to getting the job done right the first time is simply unparalleled.
Last year, Distinctive Cleaning provided water damage-related cleanup and repair for our basement when our sump pump died. I was very pleased with their ability to restore our carpet after it had been so wet and yucky! I hope we never have water damage again, but if we do my first call is to Distinctive Cleaning & Restoration.

I cannot say enough good things about the Distinctive Cleaning and Restoration team. We have used them for our personal house as well as our office space and honestly every time I wonder why I waited so long for them to come out. They are responsive, professional, and quit honestly just spectacular at what they do. I would tell anyone I know who is looking into any service they provide to use them without hesitation.

We always choose Distinctive Cleaning when it’s time to clean our carpets at Copper Spoon. They are very professional and do a great job every time! Couldn’t be happier with their work and will continue to use them moving forward.

I have a home with approximately 650 ft.² of white carpet. There were a number of stains on the carpet that it accumulated over several years. Alan worked approximately 2 1/2 hours on the carpet and it turned out absolutely amazing it looked brand new. I would recommend Distinctive Cleaning &Restoration to anyone who truly wants to have their carpets restored to a new appearance.

I highly recommend this company to clean anything you need done right now! I had an area rug that was a challenge for anyone to clean but Distinctive Cleaning got it back to looking almost brand new. My rug was 100% Cotton and was IVORY and had pet stains and dirt on it I’ve the years. Now it’s so much brighter and looks SO MUCH BETTER!!! I appreciate their help so much because otherwise my rug would’ve been a lost cause and in the trash.

Very happy with them. Cleaned my 20-year-old berber carpet to look almost new again. Have used several other carpet cleaners, but Distinctive did by far the best job.

Came home on Sunday afternoon (from an overnight trip) to water spewing into basement from a pipe that had come apart. Called several national franchises only able to leave a message. After an hour or so, having no call backs from those national franchises we were referred to Distinctive Cleaning and Restoration. Alan answered our emergency call right away. We told told him that we thought he could come in the morning as water damage seemed minimal and pipe had been put back together.
Alan asked for pictures which we sent. He immediately responded that he thought he should come out then (after 4. pm on a Sunday) to assess the situation.
His extremely thorough assessment identified water damage more extensive than we thought - , in 1/2 of living area, inside of bedroom (with some dampness along inside closet wall), entire bathroom and utility room. Approximately 1/3 to 1/2 of concrete floor in storage area had water.
They did immediate extraction, moved furniture, storage containers, cleaned carpet and flooring, they also removed some staining on carpets from where the water touched the finish on the furniture. Linoleum was cleaned, even moved the washer and dryer to clean underneath. They also removed all of the water soaked cardboard boxes.
Moved numerous items in storage area to dry location and extracted the water and cleaned the concrete.
Fans and heaters were placed throughout the 3 areas (living area, utility area and storage area)
Alan came back on Monday to check drying process and make adjustments to temperature and humidity. On Wednesday evening all was dry, the drying equipment was removed, carpet cleaned and all furniture, area rugs and "stuff" was put back in place.
The whole basement looked amazing, you would never know that there had been any kind of "water emergency"
They were extremely knowledgeable, thorough, and professional and so very personable. They answered all of our questions, even about drying the 200 year old family bible that had gotten wet. Thank goodness Alan answered our emergency call right away and made an immediate in home visit.
I am sure that I left out steps that he and his wife did to return our basement to better than normal. We know we had the very best. Thank you!

We thought the tile in our new house was dark brown…then Alan showed us his skills. Wow! It was actually much better than we could have imagined. And our carpets turned out great. Alan and Audrey provide exceptional service and we have not been disappointed. Highly recommend them!!

These two are a great team! They cleaned my son’s bedroom carpet and our sectional. The carpet cleaned up great and I don’t see the pet stains anymore! Also, after cleaning the couch not only does it look great, but the cushions feel springy and renewed. Thank you both for the wonderful work you did at our home!

We could not be happier with Distinctive Carpet Cleaning service. Alan is professional and meticulous and very pleasant to have in your home. The carpet cleaning looks wonderful. Our carpet is just a year old and was cleaned for the warranty but we were very impressed with the time and detail he took. We are absolutely thrilled with the couches and recliner. They are fifteen years old with the Eudora suede microfiber material and look and feel new. Alan got into every nook and gave it a thorough cleaning. We will definitely be using them next time and recommend highly. Thanks for the great work!
