SunClean Carpet Care is a family run business based out of Alameda. CA.
​Our business
 was inspired by events that happened when my wife Chris was pregnant with our daughter Maggie in 2004.

While getting the house ready for Maggie's imminent  arrival,  I rented a carpet machine to clean the carpets. After I finished, I placed the bottle of unused carpet solution in my trunk. A day or so later, I noticed some strange symptoms: blurred vision, tingling in my hands, hand tremers and nausea. I was concerned enough that I set up an appointment with my doctor to see what it could be. A few days later I opened my trunk and discovered the container of cleaning solution had spilled out. I had been breathing the fumes of the carpet cleaner in the enclosed space for three days. Aha! I thought; that explains my symptoms! What exactly was in that bottle anyway?!  I cleaned my car trunk and aired it out, and my symptoms disappeared completely.

Deciding to re-clean out carpets, I found a product put out by Bi-o-kleen that was everything I was looking for in an organic carpet cleaning solution. The product was made of natural botanicals, and smelled light and natural, not chemically. When I finished cleaning the carpets, not only did the carpet look and smell great, but the fibers felt softer than they had ever felt before.

After months of exploration, I also found that extremely toxic chemicals are used as the primary solvents in most carpet cleaning solutions, and have been for decades. My wife C
hris and I felt there was a place for an  organic carpet cleaning service in our community so we founded SunClean Carpet Care. We are now in our thirteenth year doing a job we love and we feel is a real service to the community.

Best,
