Comment: I don't really know how long it took for the carpet to dry. The technician told me to leave the furniture out of the living room for at least 24 hours, to be sure it was dry. I left it for two days, just to be sure and then had to move it all back by myself. He came alone and did not want to move some pieces because they were too heavy; hence, he cleaned around them. The upstairs was mostly completely empty except for a few stored items, which I put in the bathroom and closets. I think the carpets look great, considering they were 13 years old, with high traffic soil and old pet stains. I don't really know how to rate the price. I was happy to pay it, and don't regret it, if that helps.
