How Much Does Carpet Cleaning Cost in Denver, CO? 4 Real Denver Jobs and What They Cost
Carpet cleaning in Denver with Colorado Choice starts with our $119 package for the first three areas, and carpeted stairs are $4 per stair. Real Denver jobs we have done recently ran from $139 for a pet urine apartment job to $400 for an 800 sq ft basement with 16 stairs. Here are four of them, with what each one included.
What Is Included in the $119 Carpet Cleaning Package?
The $119 package covers the first three areas of carpet. Additional rooms, stairs, and pet treatment are added based on what your home actually needs. Every clean follows the IICRC S100 standard for professional carpet cleaning, and carpet typically dries in 2 to 4 hours.
- First three areas: $119 package
- Carpeted stairs: $4 per stair
- Additional rooms: added to the package (our Wash Park move-out below added one room for $35)
- Pet urine treatment: priced after inspection, based on how far contamination has spread
- Upholstery: priced by the piece and fabric
Job 1: Wash Park Move-Out, 3 Areas Plus 1 Room — $154
A Wash Park renter asked ChatGPT for a Denver carpet cleaner, and it recommended Colorado Choice. She needed move-out carpet cleaning fast. Derek cleaned three main areas plus one additional room the next day, including traffic lanes, entry paths, and spot treatment. Price: our $119 package for the first three areas plus $35 for the additional room, $154 total. Her Google review: "He was prompt, polite and quick. The carpet looks great."

Job 2: Third-Floor Wash Park Apartment With Pet Urine — $139
A large franchise showed up to this third-floor Wash Park apartment, looked at the hose route, and left without doing the job. We ran our truckmount hose up, applied enzyme pre-treatment with proper dwell time, and extracted at 200–230°F with our Prochem Apex GTX. The odor was gone before her guests arrived. The job came to $139. Read the Wash Park third-floor pet urine job.
Job 3: Lowry Basement, 800 Sq Ft and 16 Stairs — $400
A Lowry homeowner was ready to replace 800 sq ft of gray nylon plush basement carpet covered in years of spots from kids, food, and household soil. We pre-treated each spot with chemistry matched to nylon, gave it dwell time, and hot water extracted the basement and 16 stairs. Every spot came out. The $400 clean saved the homeowner between $2,300 and $10,600 compared with replacement. Read the Lowry save-vs-replace report.
Job 4: Cream Sectional in a Denver High-Rise — $299
A $50,000 cream sectional with fabric code W and coffee stains, in a fifth-floor corner unit of a Denver high-rise with no equipment access. We used a hand method with a pH-matched pre-spray, section by section, with controlled moisture extraction. The stains came out, and the building owner then asked us to handle every unit they own. Price: $299. Read the Denver cream sectional story.
Denver Carpet Cleaning Cost at a Glance
| Denver Job | What Was Cleaned | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Wash Park move-out | 3 areas + 1 additional room | $154 |
| Wash Park third floor | Apartment carpet with pet urine | $139 |
| Lowry basement | 800 sq ft + 16 stairs, heavy spotting | $400 |
| Denver high-rise | Cream W-code sectional, coffee stains | $299 |
What Makes Denver Carpet Cleaning Cost More or Less?
- Number of areas and stairs: the biggest factor.
- Pet urine: urine that has reached the backing or pad needs enzyme treatment and sub-surface work.
- Heavy soil or years of spots: more pre-treatment and dwell time.
- Access: third-floor walk-ups and high-rises take longer hose runs or hand methods, but we still do them.
The real value question is not the lowest quote. It is whether the job gets done right the first time. The Lowry homeowner spent $400 instead of thousands on new carpet.
