About Us

A Cleaner on Mission:

Our mission at C & R Chem-Dry is helping people live healthy lives by providing  clean carpets, upholstery, and as a result, an inviting living space. Our proprietary hot carbonating extraction cleaning process penetrates deep into the fibers, removing common household allergens from carpets and upholstery. Plus, our core cleaning solution, The Natural®, is EPA Safer Choice-certified. This means it meets the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's strict standards for safety, performance, and environmental impact. And, Chem-Dry uses approximately 80% less water than typical steam cleaning so carpets dry in hours instead of days, making it a top quality, convenient carpet cleaning choice.

Chem-Dry is one of the world's leading carpet cleaners, but we also offer cleaning for upholstery, area rugs, urine, and specialty stains, too.

Our Top Service Quality Guarantee:

If for any reason your cleaning with C & R Chem-Dry does not meet your full expectations, just let us know within the next 3 weeks following your service, and we will revisit to make it right. If you are still unsatisfied, then we will refund your cleaning.

About the Owner:

C & R Chem-Dry is locally owned and operated by Ben Longest, a long time southern Minnesota resident. He purchased C & R Chem-Dry in May of 2016, and has enjoyed making connections and friendships in the greater Owatonna area since. While currently living in Northfield, he offers services to all of Steele, Rice, Waseca, and Dodge Counties. One of his favorite things about offering cleaning services to the community is adding value to people's lives by making their living spaces more enjoyable.

We love our community and want to help you have a clean, happy, healthy home and life. We continue to serve all of Rice, Steele, Waseca, and Dodge Counties. Call today!
