You’ll walk into rooms that feel completely different. The musty odors disappear. The traffic patterns that made you cringe fade away. Your carpets regain that soft, plush feeling you remember from when they were first installed.
This isn’t surface-level cleaning that looks good for a week. Our deep extraction process removes embedded dirt, allergens, and odors from the base of your carpet fibers. You’re left with carpets that stay cleaner longer and actually improve your home’s air quality.
When guests visit, they notice. When you’re barefoot on your own carpet, you feel the difference. That’s what happens when carpets are cleaned the right way.
Clarita’s Cleaning has been serving Magoun Square and surrounding Somerville communities for over a decade. As a family-owned business, we understand what matters to homeowners in this area – quality work, trustworthy service, and results that reflect the care you put into your home.
We use only eco-friendly, non-toxic cleaning products, making it safe for the children and pets that make Magoun Square such a family-friendly neighborhood. Every technician is bonded and insured, giving you complete peace of mind when we’re working in your home.
What sets us apart is our attention to detail. Customers consistently mention that we “don’t miss a single thing” and often go above and beyond expectations, cleaning areas that other companies overlook.
First, we inspect your carpets and identify any problem areas, stains, or high-traffic zones that need special attention. This isn’t a rushed assessment – we take time to understand what your carpets need.
Next comes pre-treatment of stains and heavily soiled areas using targeted, eco-friendly solutions. We don’t use a one-size-fits-all approach; different stains and soil types get different treatments for maximum effectiveness.
The deep extraction process uses professional-grade equipment that removes dirt, allergens, and moisture from deep within carpet fibers. This isn’t the same as rental machines – our truck-mounted systems provide significantly more suction power and better results. Your carpets dry faster and stay cleaner longer because more dirt and moisture is actually removed, not just moved around.

Every carpet cleaning service includes thorough vacuuming, pre-treatment of stains and high-traffic areas, hot water extraction cleaning, and post-cleaning inspection. We also move lightweight furniture and replace it carefully when finished.
For Magoun Square homes, this attention to detail matters. Many of the neighborhood’s historic properties have valuable furnishings and delicate surfaces that require careful handling. We take extra precautions to protect your hardwood floors, walls, and furniture during the cleaning process.
You’ll also receive care instructions to help your carpets stay cleaner longer. This includes guidance on spot cleaning techniques and recommendations for maintenance between professional cleanings. Since Magoun Square residents often host gatherings and have active family lives, these tips help you handle everyday spills and traffic before they become permanent problems.
Most carpets in Magoun Square homes dry within 6-8 hours, though this can vary based on humidity, airflow, and carpet thickness. Our professional truck-mounted extraction equipment removes significantly more moisture than portable machines, which speeds up drying time.
You can walk on your carpets immediately after cleaning, but it’s best to avoid heavy traffic for the first few hours. Opening windows, running fans, or using air conditioning helps carpets dry faster. Thicker carpets or those in basements may take up to 12 hours to fully dry.
The faster drying time is one advantage of professional cleaning over DIY methods. Rental machines often leave carpets damp for 24-48 hours, which can lead to mold or mildew issues, especially in New England’s humid climate.
Yes, all our cleaning products are eco-friendly, non-toxic, and safe for children and pets. This is especially important for Magoun Square families who want effective cleaning without compromising their family’s health.
Our cleaning solutions are plant-based and biodegradable, containing no harsh chemicals, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), or artificial fragrances that can trigger allergies or respiratory issues. Your children and pets can be in the home during cleaning, though many families prefer to keep them in a different room until the carpets are dry.
After cleaning, there’s no chemical residue left behind that could harm curious toddlers who play on the floor or pets who might lick their paws. Our products actually improve indoor air quality by removing allergens and odors without introducing new chemical smells into your home.
For most Magoun Square homes, professional carpet cleaning every 12-18 months maintains optimal appearance and hygiene. However, homes with children, pets, or high foot traffic benefit from cleaning every 6-12 months.
Several factors affect this timeline. If you have light-colored carpets, indoor pets, or frequently entertain guests, more frequent cleaning preserves your carpets’ appearance and extends their lifespan. Homes near busy streets may also need more frequent cleaning due to increased dirt and pollutants.
Regular professional cleaning isn’t just about appearance – it removes allergens, dust mites, and bacteria that regular vacuuming can’t reach. For families with asthma or allergies, this can significantly improve indoor air quality and reduce symptoms.
Most pet stains and odors can be completely eliminated with the right treatment approach. Success depends on factors like how long the stain has been present, the type of carpet, and whether previous cleaning attempts have set the stain.
Fresh accidents respond best to treatment, but even older stains often come out completely with professional enzyme treatments that break down odor-causing bacteria. For severe cases, treatment may require multiple applications or additional steps like padding replacement, but complete odor elimination is usually possible.
The key is using enzyme-based treatments specifically designed for pet accidents, not just masking odors with fragrances. These enzymes actually digest the organic compounds that cause smells, eliminating them permanently rather than temporarily covering them up.
Yes, lightweight furniture like chairs, coffee tables, and small decorative pieces are moved as part of our standard service. Heavier items like sofas, dressers, and entertainment centers can be moved for an additional fee, or you can move them beforehand if preferred.
For items that remain in place, we clean around them and use protective tabs or blocks to prevent furniture legs from staining the damp carpet. This is particularly important for wooden furniture legs that might leave marks on newly cleaned carpets.
Many Magoun Square homeowners prefer to move valuable or antique pieces themselves for peace of mind. We work with whatever arrangement makes you most comfortable, whether that’s moving everything beforehand or having us handle the furniture moving as part of the service.
Pricing is based on the number of rooms and square footage, with most standard rooms ranging from $40-90 depending on size and condition. Whole-house cleaning typically costs $200-500 for average Magoun Square homes, though exact pricing depends on your specific needs.
We provide free estimates for every job, so you know the exact cost before any work begins. There are no hidden fees or surprise charges – the quote you receive is the price you pay. Additional services like stain treatment, pet odor removal, or furniture moving are clearly outlined in the estimate.
Many customers find professional cleaning costs less than they expected, especially when considering the time saved and superior results compared to DIY methods. The investment also extends your carpets’ lifespan, potentially saving thousands in premature replacement costs.
