We are proud to introduce Jay, owner and operator of Aggie Carpet Cleaning. Jay personally performs every service, ensuring exceptional quality and outstanding value on every job.

How was your last carpet cleaning experience? Was the carpet left overly wet, sticky, or crunchy? Did the pet urine odor return within days of their “miracle” treatment? Did the entire process feel like a waste of your time and money?

At Aggie Carpet Cleaning, we deliver a guaranteed, thorough cleaning process for every home and business in the Las Cruces community. We expertly clean carpets, tile, upholstery, area rugs, and more—leaving your surfaces fresh, dry, and odor-free.
