My Review:

I recently found myself in need of a carpet cleaning service for my home office. The problem, what company to choose? After reviewing my options, I decided to give a newcomer on the block a shot and I must say I am glad I did because my carpet looks great.  The company: OxyMagic of Arlington.  After my cleaning, I was impressed with the outcome, quick drying time, and the cost. 

Deal or Dude?

From their corporate website, Oxymagic claims, “to be the safest cleaning method available today”.  And unlike other carpet cleaning services, OxyMagic uses non-toxic chemicals thereby making it safe for your pets.  The corporate sites make the following claims as well “Our cleaning methods are fast and soft drying, not hard or crunchy like other cleaners. This proves that no sticky residue is left behind and carpets will stay cleaner longer. Because of the power of our oxygen cleaner, less moisture is needed than with other cleaning methods and the typical dry time is around 1 hour!”

I have used other carpet cleaning services in the past and have been disappointed with the results.  Not only was I not really impressed with the overall clean, but I really hated the drying time and the stupid paper booties they gave you and suggested you wear if you had to walk on your carpet before it had time to dry. 

I called and spoke with OxyMagic of Arlington owner Jon Coduti and arranged a cleaning.  Although based out of Arlington, TX, Oxymagic of Arlington can handle jobs and referrals throughout the Dallas/Ft. Worth metroplex area.  Mr. Coduti and I worked out a time convenient to both of our schedules and he personally arrived to clean my carpet.  Being a little skeptical, I decided to put together an impromptu test to really see if this new method of carpet cleaning worked.

The Test

Since the carpet in my home is a darker shade of brown, and although several stains are visible, the dark shade of my carpet makes the effectiveness of the cleaning procedure less apparent then let say on a lighter color carpet.  So I decided to fix that problem by going to a local carpet supplier and grabbing a light colored 2ft x 2 ft carpet sample.

I chose a non-stain guarded, lower end, almost white carpet sample.  For my test, I took the sample, and drove over the damn thing with my car.  I also trekked through the mud and wiped my dirty shoes on the sample and really tried to grind in the dirt, in true “infomercial” style.

The Results

When Jon arrived at my home, he knocked out my carpet in less than an hour.  I was impressed with not only the speed, but with the fact that my carpets were not damp and almost dry when he was finished (No Damn Paper Booties).  The end cleaning results were equally impressive.  Next I sprung my carpet sample on Jon and he without hesitation agreed to give it a shot.  He hit the sample with his machine and the sample was completely clean within five minutes. I can not only say that the Oxymagic™ system works but I also witnessed first hand what it could do. 

Summary

Two thumbs up and if you are in need of a good, professional carpet cleaning service, contact Oxymagic of Arlington and Jon or one of his associates will be more than happy to come out and take care of you.  To give you an idea about the cost, Jon estimates the cost of cleaning four rooms and a hallway at about $150.00. Plus, if you are a police officer or fire fighter, you get 10% off your bill.
