Frequently Asked Questions
Everything You Need to Know Before Booking
Every service we offer comes with its own set of questions, from how often carpets need cleaning to what happens to your furniture during a tile job. Here are straight answers, pulled from the questions we actually hear from clients across Toronto, Vaughan, and Richmond Hill.
How often should carpets, tile, or upholstery be professionally cleaned?
Carpets in high-traffic homes hold up best with a deep clean every six to eight months, while lower-traffic rooms can stretch to once a year. Tile and grout usually need attention every twelve to eighteen months, since grout is porous and collects dirt more slowly but is harder to remove. Upholstery and mattresses depend more on use, but once a year is a fair rule for most households.
Will cleaning actually remove old stains, or just the smell?
This depends on the type of stain and how long it has been sitting. Fresh spills on carpet or upholstery usually lift completely. Older stains, especially on grout or fabric, may fade significantly but not disappear entirely if they have already set into the material. We will always tell you honestly what to expect before we start, rather than promising results we cannot guarantee.
How long do I need to stay off carpets or tile after cleaning?
Carpets typically need four to six hours to dry fully, so we recommend keeping foot traffic light during that window, and fans or open windows help speed it up. Tile is usually safe to walk on within an hour, though we suggest socks or clean shoes at first if a sealant was applied to the grout.
Do I need to move furniture before my appointment?
For smaller jobs like a single carpeted room or a bathroom floor, moving light items and rugs out of the way is usually enough. For larger jobs, such as a full home carpet clean or a kitchen tile floor, we ask that heavier furniture or appliances be cleared ahead of time so we can reach every area properly.
What makes your cleaning different from a regular deep clean at home?
A home cleaning routine reaches the surface, but it does not reach what is trapped underneath. Our equipment pulls dirt, oils, and bacteria out from deep inside carpet fibers, grout lines, and upholstery padding, which is why the results last longer and the air in your home actually feels cleaner afterward.
Which areas do you serve?
We work across Toronto, Vaughan, and Richmond Hill, covering homes and businesses throughout each area. If your location is close to these cities but you are not sure whether you qualify, reach out, and we will confirm before you book.

Our house is renewed and I think we have found our “go-to” guy! Price was very reasonable for the work done.Posted on Google Yvonne TrotterTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a spillage on my bedroom carpet which extended into the living and kitchen areas in the form of footsteps. Golf Carpet Cleaning came to my rescue and cleaned up all the affected areas. My carpets look brand new, all other spots were also gone. Raphael, the owner, is very polite and courteous. His professional mannerisms are second to none. I appreciated his great service and his prompt approach in getting the job done. Thank you Raphael, I will certainly let my friends know about your good work.Posted on Google esther mandelTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Kafir is amazing. He cleaned my sofa and headboard. I was so worried about my headboard because it had a huge yellow stain on it and he made it look like brand new. Don’t go anywhere else this is who you need to call.Posted on Google Cayla BidermanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I just had my stair runner cleaned as well as my family room sofa and area rug. Raphael did a wonderful job. He arrived on time and was very pleasant to deal with. He got out all the stains on the carpet and on the sofa. He reviewed all of his work with us to make sure we were satisfied. He cleaned up the area before leaving. I would highly recommend Gold Carpet Cleaning!Posted on Google Diane LaviTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
