We proudly service most of Montgomery County, including The Woodlands, West Conroe, Montgomery, Dobbin, Magnolia, Pinehurst, Shenandoah, and more! Additionally, we cover parts of North Harris County (Tomball, Cypress, and North Spring), Grimes County (Navasota and Plantersville), Brazos County (sections of College Station and Bryan), and Walker County (parts of Huntsville and New Waverly).
We frequently provide services beyond our regular service area. For appointments outside these areas, a small trip fee applies to help offset additional drive time, fuel, tolls, etc. A deposit is also required, which is applied to the service total but is nonrefundable in case of cancellations or rescheduling.
If your area isn’t listed, feel free to reach out—we’ll do our best to accommodate you!
- The size and number of areas - the more areas you have to clean the more it will cost. We charge by the area so each room up to 200 sq. ft. is considered one area. Areas that exceed 200 sq. ft. incur an additional charge. Smaller areas like hallways, landings, walk-in closets, etc. are charged separately.
- The condition of the carpet - some companies charge additional for spot treatment, or even more for just heavily soiled carpet. We want to be as transparent as possible so we have an all inclusive pricing method, so what you see on the estimate is what you will pay as long as you provide the same level of transparency when providing the areas you want cleaned. The one exception to that is urine or biohazard damage. Urine treatment must be treated with additional product to break down the bacteria and counteract the associated odors. The cost for urine treatment depends on the extent of the damage, and can only be determined after the technician conducts an inspection at the time of service. If there is any amount of feces or other bodily fluids, there is an additional decontamination charge because it requires significantly more product and we have to decontaminate all of our equipment immediately after.
- The cleaning method - Hot Water Extraction (steam cleaning), Dry Cleaning, and Encapsulation all have different price points. Steam cleaning is typically more expensive than dry cleaning or encapsulation, but for good reason. Steam Cleaning/Hot Water Extraction provides a more effective and more thorough cleaning, but with that comes a bigger expense - more expensive equipment, more maintenance, etc. which creates more overhead that is factored into the price of the cleaning.
- Additional Services - a lot of companies charge extra for pre-vacuuming, pre-treatment, spot treatment, pet/urine treatment, odor removal, etc. As mentioned above we have taken an all inclusive approach because we employ service technicians NOT salesman, with the exception of additional charges for extensive urine damage or any presence of biohazards. We aren't coming to your home to upsell you on additional services though, we are there to provide a top-notch premium service at the price you were expecting. We do offer a protectant for those who are interested, but this is based on personal preference and not something we are going to push to sell to you.
- Location - some companies charge a trip fee regardless of the distance, others don't charge one at all. With Knockout Cleaning, there is no trip fee if you are inside our standard service area. We will on occasion go beyond our regular service area for a small trip fee which offsets the additional fuel, tolls, time, etc. This will be discussed in advance so you know what to expect.
- Quality of the service - if the pricing seems too good to be true, it probably is. There are companies that will be incredibly cheap, but their quality is likely lacking or they perform the old bait and switch tactic to get their foot in your door. Once they're out there they will tack on 5+ additional services that are necessary and should come standard and that low price will end up quadruple or more. At Knockout Cleaning Services we pride ourselves on offering exceptional services with great communication at a fair and transparent price.
- Equipment - The type of equipment and products used will play a role in the price point of the carpet cleaning. A company using a low-end portable will yield poor cleaning results and their pricing will likely reflect that at a lower price point. We have sourced top-of-the-line equipment and use nontoxic products that are safe for use around the whole family. These do cost us more than if we bought cheap equipment and harsh chemicals, but we are able to provide a premium service and the equipment yields great results which makes us and our clients happy!
- Location - Like most industries, pricing varies based on the region you are in. We have done extensive market research to ensure we are priced competitively for the level of service we provide. However, our level of service does not compare to those who are uninsured and use DIY residential grade equipment and therefore we do not consider their price point to be relative.
The recommended cleaning frequency depends on factors such as foot traffic, household pets, and overall usage. As a general guideline for residential properties:
-
Carpet:
-
Heavy traffic areas (hallways, living rooms, entryways, etc.): Every 3-6 months
-
Average traffic areas (bedrooms, offices, etc.): Every 6-12 months
-
Light traffic areas (guest rooms, storage spaces, etc.): Every 12-18 months – Even in rarely used spaces, dust and allergens can settle over time through HVAC systems or open windows, making periodic cleaning beneficial.
-
-
Upholstery:
-
Indoor furniture: Every 12-18 months, or more often for furniture that sees heavy use or pet activity.
-
Outdoor furniture: Often experiences more exposure to dirt, pollen, and weather conditions, so we recommend cleaning every 6-12 months—ideally once before the summer season and once after as you prepare the furniture for winter storage.
-
-
Hard Surface Flooring (Tile, Grout, LVP, Hardwood, etc.): Every 12-18 months to remove deep-seated dirt, grime, and buildup that regular maintenance can’t fully address.
For commercial properties, cleaning often needs to be done more frequently due to higher foot traffic and increased wear. Offices, retail spaces, restaurants, and other businesses may require monthly, quarterly, or biannual cleanings to maintain a clean, professional environment and extend the life of flooring and furniture.
Regular professional cleaning not only enhances the appearance of your floors and furniture but also extends their lifespan and improves indoor air quality. If you're unsure about the right schedule for your home or business, we’d be happy to assess your space and provide personalized recommendations!
