Odor removal in San Diego
SoCal Steam Clean treats lingering odors in carpet and upholstery for San Diego County homes and businesses. Odors usually come from a source in the carpet, pad or fabric, so masking the smell doesn't solve it.
We look for where the odor is coming from — often a spot that has soaked into the pad below — and treat the cause as part of professional cleaning. Our exclusive pet treatment is quoted separately, by room, based on severity.

What San Diego customers say
Real feedback from customers who chose SoCal Steam Clean.
“The technician George arrived promptly and talked with me about my concerns. He clearly and calmly explained the entire process. He took his time and removed all the stains I had pointed out as well as the hidden pet stains he revealed with a black light. Their pricing is transparent and well worth it.”
“George did an extensive walk thru and explained socals services. I got the carpet cleaning and enzyme treatment as he saw stains from my pet dog and even showed me what the problem areas were. George was in and out in about an hour and did amazing work.”
“He did a great job of using the truck mounted system to access our condo and did a thorough job cleaning two flights of stairs and all the rooms. He’s very thorough, professional, and kind. Our home feels so fresh and clean.”

Common questions
Will the odor come back?
Treating the source removes odor in most cases, but we can't guarantee it if new accidents occur or contamination reaches the subfloor.
How is pet odor treatment priced?
Pet treatment is quoted separately by room based on severity, after we assess the area.
Why does odor get worse on humid days?
Moisture can reactivate contamination below the surface, which is why we target the source.
Do air fresheners help?
They mask odor temporarily. Lasting improvement comes from treating the source.
What if the pad is badly contaminated?
Severe or long-standing contamination may need repeat treatment or pad replacement. We'll tell you if that's the case.
