They stripped off some wax my wife applied to our floors. It began looking flaky and yellow and we were so worried the floors were ruined. 1 and Done took it off with ease!
Had 1 and done remove some build up gunk on my hardwood floor that my wife had been putting on for months. We thought our floor was ruined but they saved the day. They also cleaned our carpet better than anyone in the past ever has
On time. Explained the process thoroughly over the phone and in person. Most of all, my carpet is cleaner than it has been in over a year. All at an affordable price
THE best carpet cleaning was service I have had. The tech was very knowledgeable, and exceeded my expectations. Reccomend A+++
Great service very friendly snd professional. The price was great and they didn't try to talk us into having thing done we don't need. My carpets look great.I will be using this service again.
Hands down, best customer service and carpet cleaning I have had in atleast 5 years. I found my go-to
Excellent service. The technician paid close care to how well he cleaned my carpet. The carpet was horrible but when he was done, the majority of the carpet looked like it was new! Highly recommend!
My eyes deceive me! I could not believe the nasty stains david was able to get our of my carpet! The amount of time and attention to details he put in was outstanding
As a small business owner, this review and others mean a lot. David and I were talking about how important online reviews are these days while he cleaned my couch. So I made this just for him. Not only did he do a thorough and detailed job on my sofa, he was very kind. Will use in the future and will highly recommend to all my friends and family. Word of mouth goes a long way!
THE BEST carpet cleaning in fw metroplex! Won't disappoint!
1 and Done Carpet Cleaning removed stains my previous cleaner could not. I also had then patch 1 spot where my dog had torn the carpet. I can not even notice it at all. Very punctual and explained whole process before beginning.
Honestly there is nothing bad to say. 1 and Done carpeting is great. From the quote to the service it was all A+. Charlie showed up promptly and ready to work and did an amazing job! Truly recommend and will rehire again in the future!
THE best company we have had the pleasure of using for our home. They were so kind, professional, and paid very close attention to details such as getting every part of my exposed carpet. Thanks David
Best company we've had to do our floors. Point blank. They took their time and did not rush to get in and out and charge me an arm and leg. Recommended.
Me and my fiance absolutely loved David and his helper. They did an outstanding job on our carpet all while being personal, and sociable with us. They really made us feel comfortable in our home. Love you guys!
Had them come to my home and clean my mattress , they did an amazing job . Would definitely recommend. Price was very reasonable in comparison to other places I contacted.
Remove stains from my 20 year carpe. That I did not think would be able. I will call in 6 month again
David gave me a great price over the phone and the job he did was outstanding. He took care to not scratch my baseboards. Which I specified over the phone. I will use them again.
Best steam cleaning around in fort worth. Been using them for years now
Great team work. My tile and grout never looked so refreshed and new since we moved in. Awesome
I never leave reviews but I made this account specifically to leave 1 and Done Carpet Cleaning a review. My tile and grout was done properly and professionally the first time! The grout looks brand new
Every aspect of my expectations were met with my cleaning. Recommendable 100%
1 and done saved the day! I was preparing my home for a Christmas Party and the entry hall tile as well as my old carpeting was very dirty!! 1 and done did an amazing job. Actually My carpet needs to be replaced. However, by the time 1 and done finished it looked amazing. Spots my family members attempted to remove with carpet cleaner rental machine didn't scratch the surface. I remembered the b4 and after pictures on 1 and done's website and thumbtack and immediately scheduled a carpet cleaning. I was not disappointed. My carpet really looked amazing. I felt very proud of my home. Carpet no longer looked neglected. A member of the Texas State House of Representatives attended the party and I felt great about my floors! Turns out that the special carpet cleaning equipment 1 and Done uses is state-of-the-art and runs circles around other carpet cleaners. I feel Blessed to have found 1 and Done. My Christmas Party event was a success and I had no worries about my floors! THANK YOU 1 and Done!!! 😅😀😀😁
My wife found them on Yelp and told me to call. I got some info on their carpet cleaning process and prices. The gentleman I spoke with was very professional and knowledgeable. The scheduling was super easy and convenient. Lastly, the service was outstanding. They removed every problem stain/area fully. They more than deserve this 5 star!
THE best cleaning I've ever had on my carpet. I called bigger companies in the past but 1 and Done Carpet Cleaning realllllly knocked it out of the park! The whole process from calling and scheduling to the appointment date was a breeze. They have earned a life long customer.
I spoke with David over there phone. Explained to him I didn't think the carpet could be cleaned but he insisted to let them try it anyways. He saved me lots of money and I was very shocked at how clean it turned out. Will be using them for all my rental properties in fort worth area
Thank you guys for the best possible job on my tile. Amazing different!
Thanks to "1 And Done Carpet Cleaning", for being the "BEST" carpet cleaning service I have ever used!! Charlie was very knowledgeable in his profession and I was very impressed with his expertise and it was done in a timely manner. He even worked on extra hard stains that I thought would never come out. Carpet looks new again. I will never use any other service other than this company! Ask for Charlie as he was so nice, easy to talk to, and he did an amazing job! (Great price too!)
Simply amazing job on steam cleaning my carpet. I can now feel at ease letting my newborn crawl around again. Stains and musty odor from previous owners are gone
I was ready to rip my old carpet out and replace in my rental house. I found 1 and Done Carpet Cleaning online and saw the great reviews so figured I would try professionl steam cleaning first. Boy and I GLAD I did! Saved me so much $$$ can probably get another few years out of this carpet
Customer service outstanding. We noticed a small spot re appear the day after the cleaning and called back. David immediately booked me the very next day and came and fixed the spot no questions asked. It's been a week now and it has not came back. Hard to find that kind of customer support these days!
Thank you my carpet looks so good
Very particular. Got all the spots out that I was concerned woudlnt. Last company could not remove them or they did not try hard enough. Thanks again 1 and done
Great service. Excellent work eithics.
Charly is very well trained and highly professional. He seems to love his job. He cleaned my tile and grout and I couldn't be more pleased! I forget what color my tile was SUPPOSED to be
David and his helper make their work stand out from the rest. He went above and beyond for me. After they were done Cleaning I noticed a small spot that they missed. He immediately jumped and fixed it right away without issue! Look at their reviews they speak for themselves
David and his helper did a wonderful job re-stretching my carpet at even more wonder price! Definitely give them a shot! -T
Awesome workmanship from these guys. I could not believe how well my carpet turned out. I was referred by a neighbor and glad I chose them!!!
Great work guys!
Outstanding service from these guys. David was very courteous and professional.
Pleasant experience every time
David and Terry are great! They cleaned my carpet so well we have changed our mind about replacing it! They use heavy duty truck mounts and I just couldn't be more pleased!
We had our carpets, tile and rugs cleaned! Awesome job! Highly reccomend this company! They knew what they were doing, thats for sure! Even removed pet stains and odor! Thanks again!
Always does an amazing job! Has my carpets looking fresh and brand new!
Highly recommend! Great work and customer service.
Thanks for all of your help with our carpet. Charly was a wonderfully polite and respectful young man. He really was very knowledgeable and helpful; he fully explained to us everything he was doing and why. He, like my wife and I, was really surprised that the carpet came as clean as it did. Thanks Charly for all that you did for us and all of your hard work..We will definitely be calling you and your company again and will really sing your praises to anyone and everyone.We highly recommend this company and Charly.
Had my Carpet replaced by 1 and Done. The process could not have been easier. David came out, gave me a estimate on cleaning and replacing 1 room. The price was reasonable and the job was done correctly and efficiently.
Amazing job! I saw results that I didn't think I'd see! Reasonable price, on time and efficient! We have pets and our puppy left stains and Oder in our carpet. You would have never thought so now! Thank you guys so much!
Awesome experience with David and his helper. They stretched my carpet and cleaned it after. It is so nice to not see those ugly wrinkles anymore! Fair pricing as well!
Exceptional work. Superb results. Excellent price. Highly recommended.
1 and Done does an amazing job! Very thorough and amazing customer service! My carpets looked brand new after the cleaning , all my pet stains completely! The prices and service are unbeatable! David is excellent! I highly recommend!!!!
A small family company that focuses on helping its clients. Very flexible schedules arrived at the discussed time, performed work quicker than anticipated, low prices, and excellent attention to detail. Make sure you tell them exactly what you want to and where you want it clean.
David did an amazing job on our carpets, quoted me a fair price, & was finished very quickly. He was extremely courteous & professional, was able to get us in quickly, & called / text me to confirm beforehand. I won't use any other company for carpet cleaning!
1 and Done cleaned my air ducts and tile and grout. They stuck with their price over the phone and made sure we were happy before leaving the property! I will also be using them next few months to replace my worn carpet.
David and his team installed 550sqft of hardwood in my living room after removing and hauling off the old laminate flooring. I must say the whole process took a few days but they were very precise with everything. They also quoted me the best price out of 5 other contractors. I also had them clean my carpet in my media room and again, I could not have asked for a better job. Highly recommended!
I recently purchased another home. I called 1 and Done to clean all of my carpet and tiles before I moved into my new (3 year old) home. Not only did they completely nail it cleaning my new home before I moved in, they also cleaned all of the carpet, tile and even shower tiles in my old home! Amazing job!!! 1 and Done customer for life! Jackie P. North Richland Hills
Awesome customer Service. Friendly and fast. As a Realtor in the DFW area I am always looking for contractors that offer excellent customer service and quality. Nailed it with this company!!!
David and his partner did an awesome job. The first time we used the company and we are very happy. They showed up on time, the work was quick and they were very professional. We'll certainly use them again in the future. Thank you!
This is the second time I've used this company! I have a few properties that I lease to tenants and after some have moved out, I was in desperate need of carpet cleaning. 1 and done scheduled me in on short notice and was very professional! I highly recommend this company
Very couteous and flexible in setting up the appointment. Arrived very timely (a little early even) and worked diligently while there. Was professional, polite and thorough. I will use them again in a heartbeat!
David did a great job cleaning the carpets at my rental property! This will be my go-to carpet cleaning company from now on. Great pricing and very helpful, couldn't ask for more! Thanks again - Debbie
David did an outstanding job! We have not had our carpets professionally cleaned in a long time and they looked really bad. They are beautifully cleaned, including spots we thought would never come out. Highly recommend this service - punctual, professional, and affordable!
The guys came in on time and got the cleaning done in a timely manner. Very friendly and professional. We moved into a house with very gross carpets and they look SO much better after cleaning!! My husband and I couldn't be happier with the end product. David also replied to all of my messages very quickly, so I was able to get answers and scheduled in a short period of time.
Very precise, puntual and did an exceptional Job! Michael you were great and we appreciate you extremely!
I was shopping for a local carpet cleaner and contacted a handful of companies. 1 and Done was by far the most detailed, thorough, and ACCURATE (No hidden fees and no attempts to upsell after they got in the door) with their quote and was sure to answer all of my questions in detail. Dave was able to fit me in under very short notice and a very short window. Customer service was on point during the entire process. Garrett arrived ON TIME ready to get to work. He too answered my questions and even worked around me. I highly recommend 1 and Done and will continue to use them for all my flooring needs.
Thank you David. You did a fantastic job on my carpets. They look great. I will tell everyone o know what a good and professional job you did. Just to let everyone know. This was a Mothers Day gift. So if you don't know what to get your mom, have her carpets cleaned. She will love it. I do.
David came out to my house short notice and did a wonderful job. My carpet looks brand new and my house has never smelled so good. He's very professional and his price is very reasonable. I would highly recommend 1 and done carpet cleaning to anyone.
I was very happy with the service that we received! I called late on Friday afternoon because my dog was sick and scrubbing wasn't getting up all of the marks from our children's playroom carpet. I can't believe someone was even there to answer my call! The crew arrived within the time frame specified, were polite and professional, and my carpet looks like new.
David did an amazing job. We had another company come out prior and they did a horrible job. David was able to remove all stains that prior company did not and actually make the carpet look New and smell New again. Will definitely use him again. Also was very well mannered and professional. Thank you David!!!☺
Arrived on time. Tile and carpet look great. Very professional.
I had a great experience. The service was prompt, professional, and thorough. I will use them again. Thank you for your patience and willingness to work around the situation here at my home. I will recommend your service to people.
I'm so pleased with how my carpet cleaning turned out! The pet stains are gone, and my floors have never looked better! Thanks again 1 and done! You're highly recommended!
They were very polite! The floors look great, reasonably priced and very quick.
We were very pleased at the work that 1 and Done did for us today! They arrived early and went above and beyond cleaning some old carpets! I highly recommend them to anyone wanting a professional job done on their carpets! The carpets came out better then I expected... I would use them again and refer them to my friends and family... Great job!
Very easy to get a quote from then schedule with. The technician was very professional and prompt. We are very pleased with the service and the cost!
A fine job of carpet cleaning on a 17 year old carpet. Looks more like the original color now. The fragrance from their solutions is very nice too. Very satisfied and recommend their service. Thank you.
On time on Sunday? No problem! David obviously is a serious business man that takes good care of his customers even on Sundays if he has too. Very professional, fast, and good! I would highly recommend 1 and Done to anyone in need of a carpet or floor cleaning. Great experience.
The carpets look great. They were professional and friendly and I would recommend their services.
Excellent work. They arrived promptly, worked diligently and efficiently, cleaning 1 room with wall to wall carpeting, and 3 area rugs, which all came out looking like new.
My experience with 1 and Done Carpet Cleaning was Excellent! I called about a month before and to get a quote, the price was less than what I expected by a long shot and the business had great reviews. But then life happened and I got busy and forgot about it. When I finally contacted him for the second time a month later he stuck with his orignial quote he gave me and was at my house the very next Monday. He cleaned 2 rooms and deep cleaned a rug that my puppy thought was his potty. I thought the rug was trash, but David cleaned the hell out of that rug and now it's softer than ever and back to its original white! He was fast, polite (I am a young woman that was home alone at the time, and I never felt uncomfortable at all), and an expert at what he does! I will definetlyn refer him and come back to him in the future!
Competitive pricing, and they removed some spots I didn't think they would be able to.
Wow! I can not believe how good these old floors look. Every kind of stain you can think of now disappeared.
Prompt and professional service. Reasonably priced, and the result was great. Highly recommend and will use again.
There was a mechanical malfunction when the service was started. Instead of giving up and rescheduling, the professional stayed with it eventually finding a solution to the problem. He did a great job cleaning the carpets and was very friendly.
Came on time and even a bit early. Price was best around and workmanship was tops. He worked very hard on the spots I showed him and eradicated them. Carpet looks brand new although almost 15 years old. I will be using them again when needed.
David did an excellent job cleaning my living room furniture. He was very professional, in and out quickly! My only complaint is that the brush marks are still showing in the furniture. Not sure how to get them out. But the furniture is clean! He also cleaned an area of the carpet for me. I will be using them again for duct work cleaning and a full carpet clean. Pricing was reasonable as well. I was a satisfied customer!
I decided to clean up the place before I rented out the house and decided to call 1 And Done Carpet Cleaning for their assistance. I couldn't believe how noticeable the difference in smell and cleanliness was when they were done. They also did a fantastic job on cleaning the oil stains out the driveway. I would recommend them to anyone who needs a good cleaning!
I've never experienced customer satisfaction until I hired "1 And Done Carpet Cleaning." I'm new to fatherhood and me and my fiance just moved into our new apartment. Our toddler loves spaghetti and managed to share some with the carpet! These guys had no trouble getting a 3 day old tomato sauce stain out of a white carpet. They were very polite and work around my schedule. I would highly recommend their services! - A very happy father.
Highly reputable company and owner
David the owner was very professional and knowledgeable and answered all of my questions easily. The tech that was sent out cleaned my Carpet and removed spots I did not think would be possible.
Good team they got here
I had David and charly come out to extract some water for me after our water heater broke. They came out within an hour from the time I called. Go with 1 and Done
High quality employees
The young man that came to clean my tile and grout was extremely professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. That is hard to come by these days.
My family is very pleased with the carpet cleaning job. The game room, living room and the bedroom looked like new. And the technician could not have been nicer. I cannot thank you enough! You have made my family very, very, HAPPY! What a relief to have clean carpets!
Very professional work!
David and Terry did came out to clean my carpets and tile and did the best job out of all the other companies I've used in the past! Safe to say I have found my guys!
Could not be more please!
David and his helper cleaned my carpet and tile! I could not be happier. I forgot how light my grout lines were supposed to be! Will recommend 1 and Done Carpet Cleaning to all my family and friends
Very Professional and amazing results
I recently purchased another home. I called 1 and Done to clean all of my carpet and tiles before I moved into me new (3 year old) home. Not only did they completely nail it cleaning my new home before I moved in, they also cleaned all of the carpet, tile and even shower tiles in my old home!

Thank you so much David!! My apartments keep sending someone out to clean that red spot (left by a previous tenant) for 2 years. Thank you for an outstanding job. I will not be going anywhere else.
Did a good job!!Looks like new carpet!!Would call them again for sure
High quality service, professional
Can't recommend 1 And Done Carpet Cleaning enough! They came in, got to work, and got the job done in a timely manner. They were also professional and friendly. Our carpets look like new, and their prices are very reasonable! I will be using them again for all my carpet cleaning.
Exceptional tile cleaning
The 2 gentleman were on time, kind, and most of all got my floor looking brand new.
Great air duct cleaning!
1 and done pros came in and cleaned my air ducts and i could not BELIEVE how much trash and dirt came out of them! It had gotten to the point where my ceilings were covering with dust from the vents. money well spent and fair pricing
Exceptional work detail and thorough
Prices were reasonable, affordable and acceptable! Had a bad stain in carpet even after trying to clean it myself it was pointless. But once 1 and done came they brought back hope and some happiness... Just in time for the holidays! Thank you 1 and Done!
Great service!
I had David come out and scotch guard my new carpet in the LR. He was very profession and did a great job!
Highly recommend!
I was referred to you by one of your previous customers and I must say I am very pleased with how my tile turned out! So glad we called you guys before having it replaced! My tile is 15 years old and it now looks brand new again!

Tile and carpet stretching
Had my carpet stretched because it had developed ugly wrinkles. And my tile cleaned. I must say i was surely shocked at how it all turned out.
Outstanding service and results
Our carpet had some heavy, old stains that we thought we'd have to live with, but they were able to get them out! The tech was right on time, very friendly and thoroughly explained everything. We are as pleased as we can be, and will call them next time we need flooring cleaned.
On time, high quality service!
My wood-look tile floors were a mess. Our cleaning lady had put a hardwood floor polish on our tile and was not cleaning well before she put the polish on it. 1 and Done came (on-time) and cleaned the polish off and then sealed our tile for a truly amazing price!!! They were friendly and did a great job! I will definitely use them again!!
Excellent service
David was the first business to contact us when we started looking for carpet cleaning. We scheduled an appointment and he was right on time. He was courteous and professional. Our carpets, tile and showers look awesome.
Extremely Satisfied
Words cannot do the service that I received justice. They were truthful about pricing and did an outstanding job. I WILL definitely use them in the future. I absolutely sing high praises for David and 1 and Done Carpet Cleaning. You were the best ! !
Great reliable, affordable, and job well done!
Michael was precise and very punctual! Carpet has been renewed! Job well done. Definitely will be recommending 1and Done Carpet Cleaning to everyone. Very satisfied with my service today!
Extremely Satisfied
David did an excellent job. I used a highly advertised company last year, but David surpassed them in the job he did for us. Also found him to be friendly and very courteous. Also removed two spots that no on else had been able to do in the past Thanks David for your quick response and great job!! Gary Suggs
Great service
Excellent work. They arrived on time, worked diligently and efficiently. Steam cleaned 1 room with wall to wall carpeting, and 3 area rugs, which all came out looking like new.

Prompt on time, David was honest and did a great job. Fast too
moving cleanup
David did a great job. He was on time and is a great communicator. Very professional.
Grade A professional service!
I was very happy with the job 1 and Done did on the carpet in my home!
Quality service
Very pleased with the job that was done and the speed in which it was done. I will definitely use you again.
Extremely professional and great job
David and his team did a fantastic job. I had carpet stains from a treadmill and they were able to get them all out - and basically make the carpet look brand new. They were extremely nice, punctual, hard working, and honest. I would highly recommend 1 and done carpet cleaning.
Extremely happy!
David and his father came out and did an outstanding job. I had just had the interior walls painted and the painters had left some paint splatter on the carpets and paint over spray where the carpet meets the walls. David was able to get ALL the paint out. He and his dad worked very hard and I was impressed. They were polite, personable and did an EXCELLENT job. I would highly recommend them.
Great experience! Will hire again.
David and Terry were great. They responded to our request literally 5 minutes after the request was made. They came out to do the work when we asked them to (the offered to come earlier actually). They were friendly and courteous. Best of all, our carpet was spotless when they were done! We will hire them again.
An Amazing Team!
Terry and David are truly and amazing team. They did us good! We were very pleased by both the quality of the work and the humility of these two guys. They cleaned the tile for our entire home and sealed the grout in a very timely fashion. And, the price was more than fair. I would (and will) refer them to others.
Honest and high quality service
We have requested quotes from several carpet cleaning companies on Yelp.com. Some replied and some never did. Only one and Done Carpet replied with exactly what we wanted to know and the quote was very accurate and honest. Nothing hidden, nothing too low to lure us in. But just flat fare price. I definitely would say that David, the owner, is worth to do continuous business with. Also, their cleaning does not use any chemical. And David did not do a sloppy job. He made sure that he went over every spot several times and for the stains, he went over them numerous times to make sure that they don't come back after he leaves. I had already referred him to my sister-in-law. And I am going to use this company from now on. Thanks David, Tony H.
So pleased
I was very happy with the work that was done and also the pleasant employees. Will call again when I have the need.
Very professional ...I definitely recommend 1and Done...
sofa set
great service -fast-on time-friendly describes david the techican who came out to my house. lower price rate than any and I called many other cleaning services --none came close to david ' s prices. no hidden fees or add on charges. nice to do business with an honest person ! Ross thanks again david :)
What you "expect" from a business
I had a great experience with 1 AND DONE. The individual that provided the service was more than exceptional. It's the small things that we don't see anymore as customers, in which was provided the day of provided service... 1) Arrived on time 2) Sincerely caring about the customer experience 3) Honesty 4) Respectful 5) A great job of the actual service (work ethic) 6) and any other small thing that you "expect" from a business/Service Provider. Corporate America has lost its touch. Family business' are the way to go.
Wonderfully satisfied !
The tech called 30 minutes before he arrived. He was very professional and went straight to work. My carpets had not been cleaned in 7 years and now they look brand new. I will be calling for a tile and grout cleaning soon.
Great job
Great Service
I called them to clean my client's home, they were very professional and provided great service! I would definitely refer them to everyone I know.
Fast and Friendly
He got right to it and was very efficient with time. He was able to get out a red again from years ago! Overall I am very happy with the results. Carpets look like new!
Better than previous company
David did a very good job cleaning my carpet and tile. Especially with my carpet since the stains that could not be cleaned by other company were wiped away. The dirty dark color at the edge of the carpet are reduced. The tile grouts now have the same clean color (before only a few grouts are clean). It was easy to setup the schedule, change the schedule and discuss the change of the service that I requested. My house is far from David's place but still he arrived in-time. He also let me know 45 minutes before he finished the job. In overall I am pretty happy with the result of his job.
Took time to do a great job!
I had a rental where I evicted the tenant. They trashed the place and the carpet was pretty bad and even had red stains in several places. While it wasn't cheap, they got the carpets looking as good as I believe anyone could and took the time to do it right. The price as fair given the condition. I will be calling them again the next time I need a really good carpet cleaning.
Thanks, David, for your hard work and the quality of service you provided. We really like the way the rooms look and smell. We appreciate your professionalism and your attitude towards our constant questions.
Very Happy!
I have a 10x16 seamed carpet remnant the was in dire need of cleaning. I've rescued a few dogs in the past 10 years and this rug seemed to be the prefered spot. I tried spot cleaning, but the carpet evenually started showing those spots and it's on a hardwood floor, so it really needed to be removed for heavy cleaning. When I called a got a response immediately and we set up a time for pickup. I loved the men that came to house. They were very sweet and helpful and I must say, GREAT JOB guys!!! I danced on the carpet with white socks and I'm extremely satisfied with the results!
1 and done carpet cleaning was very flexible on the time I needed to have my carpets cleaned. They arrived on time and did a good job. They even did a follow up call to make sure I was satisfied. I would definitely recommend their services.

The most respectful gentlemen I have ever dealt with. Came in looked at the carpet and floors told me they would have it looking like new. Guess what they did. I am going to use them again and will let others know about them.
Tile came out good
Very well tile cleaning was done.
good service and expierence
David was right on time and ready to work. He cleaned my tile in one room and carpet in 3 others. The results on both were outstanding! I recommend anyone give him a call
More than I expected
My hardwood floor looked a little black and dirty so i was referred to 1 and done. They came out the same day and it only took them about an hour to do my kitchen and hallway. after they left there were no more nasty black marks and it was very shiny afterwards too. I highly reccommend t1 and done. I am a satisfied customer as well as my friend who recommeneded them to me!
Great experience from start to finish
Was scheduled fast, they arrived exactly on time (maybe 10 min early). Could not be happier with the results. You know they are doing something right, when you smile while you are paying them... worth every penny!
Carpet cleaning service
Our experience with 1 and Done was wonderful. David was on time and ready to work. He had a great attitude and did a fantastic job with our carpet. His prices are very reasonable. He went above and beyond to make sure we were satisfy. We will definitely use him again and recommend his service to anyone!
definitely hire them again
He arrived right on time, and was very nice and polite. Very professional. Answered all my questions. The cleaning was done in a reasonable time frame. My carpet looks brand new.
Very pleased
Had my 2000 Chrysler minivan carpet cleaned. Was very dirty and stained after years of use.he called promptly to set an appointment, gave very reasonable estimate and delivered excellent results. He worked hard and did a great job. Would definitely use again
My hardwood floors were cleaned by these guys and they did an amazing job. They left the floor very clean and shiny loooking. My husband is happy and so am i.
getting my driveway pressure washed was the best thing i could have done. It looks like brand new cement now! 1 and done cleaned my tile in my kitchen and my concrete driveway. They sure went beyond my expectations on both services, because I was shocked at how well it all came out. money well spent I say!
Very Professional!
Great cleaning service! I called in the morning and they were able to come that evening. Same day. First time using the service and I will definitely call them again for the next time. I had tried to use a steam cleaner on my own but nothing compares to the professionals.
On Time , Friendly and Thorough
Just had my carpet 3 rooms and a hallway, my recliner and a mattress steam cleaned. They turned out amazingly clean. My recliner is 6 years old and looks new again. My carpet had stains from the cats, high traffic from the garage thru kitchen to living room, all the stains are gone, smells great and looks even better. The carpet was laying down, whatever equipment they used gave it new life again! Thank you 1 and Done for a jib well done. These guys were one time m very friendly, quick and I would highly recommend them to anyone.
Phenominal job!
They left my carpet looking GREAT! I could not be any happier with it. If you have dirty carpet, give them a call! I will definitely continue using their service.
Will be caling again!
I had just bought a used sofa and loveseat pair from someone on craigslist. Unfortunately, the owner had cats and dogs so it was covered in hair. Not to mention the odor it had as well. I found this company and gave them a try at steam cleaning it. Long story short it now looks good as new. I will also be using them for my carpet next week. I recommend them fully.
Great service!
The person showed up promptly to my house and after about an hour, I had a carpet as good as new. Would love to do business again. Really impressed! If you haven't given 1&Done a chance yet, go ahead and do so. You won't be disappointed!
We will use them again!
This company was professional, prompt & fairly priced. I called a lot of other company's before I got this one & I got a whole lot of if you add this it's that, if you do this it's this much more, etc. It was a waste of time. 1 and Done had my carpet cleaned & smelling fresh. We were pleased & you will be too!
Thanks for the one call resolution on my carpet.My family is very impressed with your job. The price was awesome, the crew was on time, and very professional. Thanks David and you can count on me to recommend you guys anyday.
fantastic service
awesome service at a awesome price. I recently had another company come out and clean my apartment and they tried using some sort of "encap" cleaning when i specifically asked for steam cleaning. Long story short, I ran them off and call 1 and done and they not only got the job done quick, but at a very reasonable price. highly recommend them. Thanks again guys.
Supberb Couch Cleaning
Excellent customer service. Very friendly, prompt and professional. I had them clean a sectional couch that was in my garage for 9 months of which my dog had slept on many times. They were very thorough and their cleaning processes and equipment did an excellent job. I highly recommend them.
Very good work
I don't have a lot to say. They got in, got my carpets spotless. and got out within 2 hours. Very good work and will recommend them to anyone I come across.
Definitely knows what their doing
i called this compnay out to clean my couch and they did a wonderful job. They vacuumed the couch first, then sprayed it with something im unsure of i forgot to ask. then i watched them scrub in whatever they put down on it, and then steam cleaned it. That alone god rid of the dog odor, but the guy went ahead and sprayed it with their deodorizer for no extra cost. i hghly recommend this company.
Prompt, courteous, and awesome work
i had to get my carpet cleaned asap before me and my husband moved out of the house. These guys came and got it done with a very short notice. I would recommend them to anybody because they are friendly and will work out a good price with you which is just a plus, but more importantly, their work is OUTSTANDING.
I am very pleased
This company cleaned my carpet and stairs way better than i expected. I had stains from my pets, food from the dining room, and even melted crayon from my kids. They got every single stain out and now my carpet looks brand new. I could not be happier!
my carpet looks and smell awesome. I will be referring them to my parents and friends. Adding 1 and done to my list of favorites for sure and will not use another carpet cleaner.
Renewed my trashed carpet
they were able to completely renew my carpet which hadnt been cleaned in over 5 years. I recommend this company fully.
Excellent service
My wife occasionally lets our dogs in the house and eventually our couch and carpet started to smell like them. I spoke to David over the phone and explained it to him. He assurred me it wouldnt be a problem with their deodorizer. Sure enough, when he left my home i smelled only freshness. I was recommended to them by a friend and i will continue using them.
Awesome Service!
David was very polite and professional and did just what was promised over the phone. i Have 3 dogs and my house was starting to smell like them. after cleaning my carpet, rugs, and couch, the smell was gone!and i was left with a nice lavender type smell. DEFINITELY money well spent!
My Carpet Looks New!!
I have 2 dogs and grandchildren along with white carpeting. That is a prescription for spots and stains. I was very impressed with the job done by 1 And Done Carpet Cleaning today. My white carpet is stain free!!!! They did an amazing job and I would recommend them to any of my friends and family. My carpet was not wet and saturated afterwards and no harsh chemical smells. LOVE MY CARPET AGAIN. Jeanie, Fort Worth
Saved the day!!
I knocked over a half empty coke bottle in my new roomates apartment while she was out of town for 2 days on a business trip. I didn't want her to come home to see that I had already ruined the carpet so I called these guys for help. They were really easy going and got exactly what I needed done. I would definately reccomend their services to anybody that needs it!
Not a bad way to spend 25$
I have a 3 year old at home and things can get hectic when your child throws a fit. My son threw his tennis ball and knocked off a un-opened wine bottle off the counter and left a horrible red mess all over our white carpet. I payed 25$ for just the living room and now the carpet looks as good as it did before! -Sincerely, a satisfied customer.
Quality Service
I've had my house for about 7 years now, and finally called someone to clean my carpet. I have 2 dogs that make horrible messes when I'm at work and they took care of everything! Definately inexpensive to most cleaning services, with professional quality. The name says it all!

Absolutely satisfied with the entire experience: From choosing, ordering, delivery and a beautiful product.
This is the third time we buy from Obaku. The customer service is always professional, the advice we get is always helpful, and the willingness to provide customers with the best experience is commendable. The orders arrive as they are scheduled. I would recommend Obaku to my friends and family with high regards.
I love the design. It is classic, simple and suitable for daily wear. Worth it.
Nice watches and the shipping was awesome!
This was our fifth Obaku watch in ten years, both male and female. Just love em. We have found them to be very reliable and love the designs.
Gorgeous watch. Very high quality. I like to wear it. Very fast shipping and good communication.
I am in love with Obaku watches. They have elegance in all styles. The material they use is of no match. Superb designs for all age types. This brand is my all-time favorite now.
I have 5 Obaku watches to date and I am always amazed at the quality of their watches. They look and feel much more expensive than the price you pay for them. By far my favourite brand for watches :D
Really nice watch, good delivery. They even included a little bag from obaku, great if want to give it as a present.
Excellent service and excellent watch It came pretty quickly. Loved the watch.
I fell in love with my Obaku and decided to purchase it directly from their online website. The watch came the following day, and hasn't left my wrist since. I am totally in love with the design.

Methotrexate, sometimes called MTX, reduces inflammation caused
juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA).
Most experts believe the potential
benefits of methotrexate in children with JIA are greater than the risks of
serious side effects, and methotrexate has become the preferred second-line
medicine for children with JIA. It is generally reserved for children who do
not respond to nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).
But some children who have JIA, especially those with
polyarticular and extended oligoarticular JIA, gain significant benefit from early
methotrexate treatment. Methotrexate reduces symptoms and may slow joint
Methotrexate may also be used
for resistant chronic inflammatory eye disease (uveitis) in
children with JIA.
Methotrexate appears to be
effective for juvenile idiopathic arthritis.1
Methotrexate may:
Serious but rare side effects of
methotrexate include:
Minor side effects include:
None of these side effects are permanent.
Folic acid supplements may decrease the severity of
side effects.
Effects on blood cells and liver inflammation can be
detected early by regular blood tests (every 1 to 2 months) and almost always
return to normal when methotrexate is discontinued. Regular blood tests may
help detect liver inflammation. In very rare cases, inflammation can lead to
more serious liver scarring (fibrosis or cirrhosis).
Anyone taking
methotrexate must avoid alcohol use to prevent
significant drug interactions.
Women taking methotrexate should
avoid becoming pregnant, as the drug causes miscarriage and possibly birth
See Drug Reference for a full list of side effects. (Drug
Reference is not available in all systems.)
Children who are taking
methotrexate should not take other medicines without the approval of the doctor who is treating their JIA. Methotrexate interacts dangerously with
certain other medicines. Methotrexate should
not be used in children who have chronic liver disease. Some children with kidney
disease can take methotrexate, but they require an adjusted dose and careful
Frequent blood monitoring for blood cell
counts and liver function enzymes should be done during methotrexate
Methotrexate may increase the risk for certain
infections, such as
shingles and
Methotrexate has been shown to
be safe for long-term use in most children, but it is still usually tapered off
and stopped about 1 year after

Rove to Dems: Listen to DNC chair
Karl Rove has some advice for Democrats running in 2014: Listen to Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz.
The GOP strategist joked Monday that Democrats should run on Obamacare, as suggested by the Democratic National Committee Chairwoman who said they "will be able to run on Obamacare as an advantage."
"I hope every Democrat paid careful attention to the chairman of their party and that between now and next November, they diligently and enthusiastically and energetically follow her advice and make Obamacare the centerpiece of their campaigns. Every one of them," Rove said on Fox News's "Fox and Friends."
Rove, who has been critical of Obamacare and its flawed rollout, continued to joke that Obamacare will be a successful strategy for Democrats running in 2014.
"So every Democrat, listen to Debbie Wasserman Schultz, do exactly that! Obamacare every single day! It's a great thing! Everybody loves it, just go out there. Don't pay attention to those ordinary people. There are a few malcontents out there, but by gosh, go out there and push this issue! Every single day!"
However, Rove turned serious when it came to discussing enrollment numbers, saying the unmet target was a low figure to begin with.
"They want to have 7 million by the end of March, which means if they were doing it 38,461 people a day, by the end of October, they would have had 1.2 million people signed up instead of the goal was I think 400,000," Rove said.
Rove said the decision for Republicans on whether to delay the implementation or not is "a tougher question than you might think."
"I think Republicans have got to have a good strategic approach to this that says you know what? Here's what we're for. Here's what we think," Rove said. "We've got to have a positive vision as well as the tactical response to what the president is trying to do to cover his posterior.

Wedding Albums
January 18, 2012 ALBUMS
Creating wedding albums is one of my favorite parts of the job; visually creating the story of the day with images I've created. Putting together the layout is time consuming on both my part and the clients' part, but seeing the final product in print makes it so worth while. There is nothing like feeling the final product and viewing the printed images.
Here are a few images of my newest sample albums. Below is The Wedding Book, my latest addition to the album offerings. The Wedding Book is a sophisticated album with thin, flush-mounted pages featuring a modern design.
The two books standing up here are parent sized books; to the left is a companion book and the right is a custom parent book.
Below: Left: 9x12 Wedding Book with Sleeve / Right: Parent companion book
I love all of the cover materials the Wedding Book offers, as well as the imprinting options.
Below is a new sample of The Coffee Table Book, which I've carried for several years. This book is a casual, bound coffee style picture book.
Here are a few of my latest layout pages from a few different books.

Health Woman suggests that Lezyne lights are the new use for getting fit….not a bad idea on any level.
Brand new from the epic Lezyne range is their new light products. Small, compact, tidy and at a price point that won't leave you feeling mugged. In fact, by fitting on of these onto any form of cycle, it will certainly give you added cool points as style wise, they are top notch!
With all of Lezyne bike lights and goods, the engineered design and style appear is prominent and they may be especially targeted their new array of solutions at a particular buyer. By trying to keep their variety sub 100, it implies that they're interesting to much more buyers without sacrificing functionality due to the fantastic quantity of lumen output.
Inside the variety they've three designs out there in 3 colours, all with the very same universal handlebar mounting bracket. All three models are headlamps that develop 150, 300 and 450 lumens. All 3 are applying cree LED's and have their very own exceptional uniform power beam reflector assembly and are all 100% CNC'd in standard Lezyne style. Anodized bodies on all which include laser etched graphics plus weather proof sealed and all sorts of round fairly indestructible.
The Lezyne Super drive is the top of the range flagship model and pumps out an impressive 450 lumens at a price of 99.99. Weighing in at 126 grams it's also a pretty lightweight model, especially for its price point, it will be competing with some of the bigger manufactures out there. All 3 models are running on Li-Ion rechargeable batteries and are USB chargeable. This is a really useful feature if you are commuting as when you get to work, assuming you are office or computer based, you can simply charge the light of the computer.
The opposite designs, the Mini Drive (49.99) plus the Power Drive (79.99), are incredibly similar in appearance and are also available inside the silver, black and gun smoke colours. The only modify inside the designs is lumen electrical power, dimension and weight.
Rutland Cycling are brightening up the dark this winter. They are giving the brilliant new Lazyne lights at an extra special price. Why not take a look now?

TBR Book Giveaway Contest!!!
Okay, part of me is being lazy because I couldn't think of something fun to blog about today. So I figured, "Eh, I'll give away some books!"
I'm waaaaay behind on having a contest to thank all my blogging friends for hanging out here for the last few months.
You guys have been great, and I really appreciate your comments and meeting so many new bloggers!
It's an easy contest.
Leave a comment telling me what book is next on your To Be Read list (one that you don't yet own).
Next Friday, May 13th I'll announce three winners (by random draw) and their book choices.
I'll put your name in the bucket an extra time each for blogging, FB, or tweeting the contest.
Simple and easy, no?
And the coolest thing is, we all get to see what everyone has next on their TBR list!
I can't wait to hear what everyone want to read. :) Good luck!

"At the New York World's Fair of 2014, General Motors' 'Futurama' may well display vistas of underground cities complete with light- forced vegetable gardens. The surface, G.M. will argue, will be given over to large-scale agriculture, grazing and parklands, with less space wasted on actual human occupancy," wrote science fiction legend Isaac Asimov in 1964. In the summer of 1964, Asimov attended the New York World's Fair, a landmark event in the history of forward-looking science and design.
"What will the World's Fair of 2014 be like?" he wrote after his visit. "I don't know, but I can guess."
Asimov's article is exactly the kind of speculative futurism you'd expect based on the technology displayed at the 1964 World's Fair. Some of his ideas hew closely to the sci-fi of the time--auto-cooked meals from The Jetsons, floating cars as seen in countless pieces of sci-fi art. He gets a lot wrong. But sometimes his expertise as a scientist shines through, and he makes predictions that are reserved and surprisingly realistic.
Naturally, if Asimov would get anything right, it would be robots. The writer famous for the laws of robotics looked forward 50 years and wrote "Robots will neither be common nor very good in 2014, but they will be in existence." It's hard to be more accurate than that. Today's robotic machinery works wonders for automated factory production, but bipedal robots and robots that roll around--what we usually think of when we see the term robot--are still in their infancy. Asimov more or less predicted that, too.
He continued: "The I.B.M. exhibit at the present fair has no robots but it is dedicated to computers, which are shown in all their amazing complexity, notably in the task of translating Russian into English. If machines are that smart today, what may not be in the works 50 years hence? It will be such computers, much miniaturized, that will serve as the "brains" of robots. In fact, the I.B.M. building at the 2014 World's Fair may have, as one of its prime exhibits, a robot housemaid*large, clumsy, slow- moving but capable of general picking-up, arranging, cleaning and manipulation of various appliances. It will undoubtedly amuse the fairgoers to scatter debris over the floor in order to see the robot lumberingly remove it and classify it into 'throw away' and 'set aside.' (Robots for gardening work will also have made their appearance.)"
Asimov made a couple other accurate extrapolations of technology, even though he didn't get the details exactly right. For example, he predicted "communications will become sight-sound and you will see as well as hear the person you telephone. The screen can be used not only to see the people you call but also for studying documents and photographs and reading passages from books." Bang-on. Then he predicted that "Synchronous satellites, hovering in space will make it possible for you to direct-dial any spot on earth, including the weather stations in Antarctica." Satellite phones do exist, though most of our conversations are routed over the air between cellular towers or through Internet cables.
He also made some bleak, though accurate, predictions about population, and noted that "In 2014, there is every likelihood that the world population will be 6,500,000,000 and the population of the United States will be 350,000,000." As of early 2012, the world population was estimated to be over 7 billion, and the population of the United States around 315 million. Unfortunately, he was right in guessing that "A larger portion than today will be deprived and although they may be better off, materially, than today, they will be further behind when compared with the advanced portions of the world. They will have moved backward, relatively." He was also certain--and this time, unfortunately wrong--that the world of 2014 would have agreed to work together to lower the birth rate and head off impending population issues.
Why were so many predictions of the 1950s and 1960s so wrong? Asimov and other futurists expected better of humanity.
In fact, most of what Asimov got wrong follows a pattern we should be very familiar with by now, even if it's not something we give much thought. Why were so many predictions of the 1950s and 1960s so wrong? It was impossible to know exactly how much work it would take to develop computers and other technologies that are infinitely more complex than they were 50 years ago. But that's not the only reason.
People like Isaac Asimov looked at the explosive technological and industrial growth of the 1950s and 1960s, the vast resources being expended to take us into outer space and to the moon, and extrapolated from that. In many ways, they expected better of humanity.
For example, in talking about overpopulation, Asimov wrote that "Population pressure will force increasing penetration of desert and polar areas. Most surprising and, in some ways, heartening, 2014 will see a good beginning made in the colonization of the continental shelves. Underwater housing will have its attractions to those who like water sports, and will undoubtedly encourage the more efficient exploitation of ocean resources, both food and mineral. General Motors shows, in its 1964 exhibit, the model of an underwater hotel of what might be called mouth-watering luxury. The 2014 World's Fair will have exhibits showing cities in the deep sea with bathyscaphe liners carrying men and supplies across and into the abyss."
When he thought about overpopulation, he thought about science and industry banding together to address that population in an incredible way, by pushing human habitation out into the sea. His first thought wasn't that city apartments would get smaller, or that millions upon millions of people would pack into slums around some of the world's largest cities.
When he thought about power, he didn't think oil and natural gas would be our primary energy sources. He predicted "fission-power plants which, by 2014, will be supplying well over half the power needs of humanity."
One of the most remarkable elements of his worldview, at the time, is just how eternal some fixtures of it seem to be. You see it in him writing about General Electric and General Motors, and what their exhibits will look like at the 2014 World's Fair. Of course, he couldn't know that General Motors wouldn't exist 50 years later without billions in government bailout funding, but he may have been able to predict that some of 2014's most powerful and influential companies, including automakers, would come from countries like Japan and China.
Still, history has a way of repeating itself, and the companies Asimov found so influential may be driving innovation for the next 50 years. This last bit is one of his best, because history has kindly brought brought at least one piece of 1960s-era technology back into fashion. If there really was a 2014 World's Fair, I'd almost believe it. Asimov wrote:
"General Electric at the 2014 World's Fair will be showing 3-D movies of its 'Robot of the Future,' neat and streamlined, its cleaning appliances built in and performing all tasks briskly. (There will be a three-hour wait in line to see the film, for some things never change.)"

Combine the words "melted" and "cheese" and you've got my attention – mozzarella sticks, Chicken Parmesan, pupusas, pizza, macaroni and cheese, chiles rellenos – They're all firmly in my favorite foods category. So it should come as no surprise that when I found out about Salvadoran Rellenos de Ejotes, you didn't have to tell me twice to grab a fork.
Fresh green beans are pressed by hand into softened mozzarella cheese, dipped in batter and fried until golden brown, then topped with homemade salsa. Carlos likes this served with rice, but I'm happy to eat them all on their own.
Rellenos de Ejotes
1 to 2 lbs. fresh green beans
1 lb. mozzarella cheese
6 eggs
3 tablespoons of all purpose flour
oil for frying (I use Canola)
salt and pepper
1. Pull the stems off green beans and separate out any that are shriveled or too small. Discard the stems and shriveled green beans. Small green beans can be used in another recipe but for this one, you want big, strong green beans that are all around the same size.
2. Boil the green beans in slightly salted water for about 10 minutes or until when tasted they are tender and cooked but not soft. Drain and then set aside to cool to the point that they're safe to handle by hand.
3. To soften mozzarella cheese, immerse the cheese (still in its packaging), in a bowl of warm water. After 5 to 10 minutes, remove the package of cheese from the water, remove the cheese from the packaging, and then knead it by hand in a medium-sized bowl until it's soft and easy to mold with your hands. Set aside.
4. To make the batter, separate the eggs – placing the whites in a medium-sized bowl and the yolks in a small bowl. (I find the easiest way to do this is to carefully crack the egg and then pass the yolk back and forth between the two shells. The whites will fall into the bowl below and then when you're left with only the yolk, you can put it in the other bowl.)
5. Beat the whites (an electric mixer comes in handy here), until stiff, then carefully mix in the yolks and then the flour.
6. To form the Rellenos de Ejotes, lay about 5 green beans in your palm, side by side. On top of this, add a small handful of cheese, and on top of that, repeat a layer of green beans like you have on the bottom. Cup your hands together and apply gentle pressure so that the green beans stick to the cheese.
7. Repeat this process until all the beans and cheese have been used. Season each Relleno de Ejotes with a little salt and pepper, then dip each one in the batter.
8. Fry the Rellenos de Ejotes in a few tablespoons of oil in a large frying pan, flipping once until golden brown on each side.
9. Remove to paper towels or place directly into salsa. (I prefer to keep the Rellenos out of the salsa until ready to eat to avoid any sogginess or falling apart.)
10. Serve topped with salsa. (My fresh salsa recipe is below.)
Señora López's Fresh Salsa
3 to 4 fresh Roma tomatoes or a 32 ounce can of whole tomatoes
1 handful fresh cilantro
1/2 of a medium-sized onion
1/4 of a medium Poblano or green bell pepper
1 tablespoon raw, minced garlic
a few rings of pickled jalapeño (Optional. Add more or less to taste.)
salt to taste
a few shakes of Worcestershire sauce (also known as "Salsa Perrins.")
Combine in a blender. Serve immediately or put in a jar and keep refrigerated for a few days. Use in almost any recipe calling for salsa, or as a side with Latin American dishes.

There are artists who find inspiration in majestic landscapes or beautiful women — and then there are artists who find inspiration in the Internet. Take Lauren Kaelin, the artist behind our new favorite Tumblr, which takes popular memes and turns them into paintings.
Kaelin dubbed the project Benjameme, named for German art theorist Walter Benjamin, who analyzed the democratization and reproducibility of art. An apt connection, as the subjects of her paintings are highly reproducible viral stars ranging from Grumpy Cat and the IKEA monkey to the Ermahgerd girl and the more recent viral Prancercise lady.
(MORE: Internet Cats: Behind the Memes)
But instead of democratizing and reproducing art like Benjamin discussed in the 1930s, Kaelin seeks to reverse that by taking an already-mainstream image and "creating an aura or an original where none previously existed," she told Mashable. "Benjamemes, aside from being a place of pure appreciation, is an opportunity to recontextualize these sensations as art objects and ultimately question why," she said.
The "why" here, essentially, is why are we so drawn to Grumpy Cat or Texts from Hillary or Psy's "Gangnam Style" dance? What makes a certain image so ripe for viral reproduction? Kaelin told Mashable that she's not sure of the answer — but in the meantime, she'll keep painting. We'll never look at memes the same way again.
If you can't get enough meme-art, you can buy prints of Kaelin's work here.
