Downey Carpet Cleaning started in business back in 1897. At that time it was call John M. Downey Rug Cleaning because there wasn't wall to wall carpet back then. In fact there wasn't even electricity in most homes until 1908. A lot has changed since1897! One thing that hasn't changed is that we are still a Family owned business. Different family members own Downey Carpet Cleaning Companies in different Cities. There is not only Downey Carpet Cleaning in Toledo but also in Columbus, Granville, Cleveland and other cities will be opening soon through the Columbus office. The carpet cleaning equipment we use is called the STEAMEN DEMON. You probably know it best as the machine that Shaw Industries endorsed and would like it to be used on the carpet that they manufacture. The machine is manufactured in Indiana by Michael Downey, (yes, another Downey), Michael has spent years first inventing, designing and perfecting this machine. You won't have to worry about your carpet taking too long to dry. My carpet is usually dry by the time I get home from work. Our Carpet Cleaners are trained and highly experienced. The average Cleaner has 23 years of experience in the cleaning of both Carpet and Furniture Cleaning
