We had Mohammad come over the have him take one of our Persian carpets away to be cleaned. It had been "soiled" by a dog during the dog's last days.

We highly recommend him and his services to others.

I trust this man based on how he worked with me: intelligently, timely, kindly and deeply...read full review
