Carpet Cleaning Irvine, CA

CHANGING THE WAY THE WORLD CLEANS

Founders Gaylord Karren and John Hopkins managed over 3,000 apartment units in Texas. Their biggest frustration, and biggest expense, was cleaning carpets for their tenants. None of the carpet cleaning providers seemed to have a solution that cleaned the carpets enough to avoid replacing them, and they knew there had to be a better way.

With their experience in engineering, they discovered that there were two major problems with the decades-old carpet cleaning techniques. The soaps and detergents that other cleaners were using left soapy residue on carpet, which made the carpets appear clean, but actually attracted more dirt and bacteria in the long run. On top of this, the tools these traditional carpet cleaners were using were ineffective at removing the soaps and detergents from carpet, which compounded the issue.

Upon this discovery, and with the help of their friend and longtime home restoration specialist, Jim Stone, Gaylord and John set out to find a cleaner, safer, greener way to clean carpets. They founded Zerorez and the rest, as they say, is history.
