Commercial Carpet Cleaning Checklist

A full-job checklist for commercial carpet cleaners covering preparation, the machine cleaning process, drying and finishing, and end-of-job cleanup.

52 of 52 items on the sheet

Tick items off as you go, hide a section or a single line, write a note or add a photo on any row, then save it. Nothing you type, tick or attach here is saved or sent anywhere: a note and a photo print on the sheet and are gone when you reload.

The button opens your print dialog: choose Save as PDF as the destination (or print it straight to paper). The sheet carries only the items you kept.

Sheet details

Optional. Whatever you type prints across the top of the sheet; leave one blank and it prints as an empty line to fill in on site.

That is the whole sheet.

The button opens your print dialog: choose Save as PDF as the destination (or print it straight to paper). The sheet carries only the items you kept.

This checklist is a working document, not a code inspection or a substitute for a licensed professional. Confirm the current code, permit and licensing requirements for your own jurisdiction before you sign anything off.

What the Commercial Carpet Cleaning Checklist Covers

52 checks across 15 sections: Preparation: Gather Equipment and Supplies, Preparation: Inspect the Carpeted Area, Preparation: Communicate With the Client, Preparation: Ventilation, Cleaning: Pre-Vacuum the Carpet, Cleaning: Pre-Treat Stains and Heavily Soiled Areas, Cleaning: Prepare the Carpet Cleaning Machine, Cleaning: Begin the Cleaning Process, Cleaning: Spot Cleaning, Cleaning: Extraction and Rinsing, Cleaning: Post-Cleaning Inspection, Post-Cleaning: Drying, Post-Cleaning: Final Touches, Post-Cleaning: Client Satisfaction, Cleanup. Work through it on a phone on site, or export the PDF and carry the paper. Anything you tick prints ticked, a note you write on a line prints under it, and a section you do not need can be hidden before you export.

It is free, there is no account, and nothing you enter is kept. Use it as a starting checklist, not a standard. It is written for general Cleaning work, so add the checks your own standards and your local code require before you take it to a job.

Where Zeus comes in

The checklist is the easy half. The paperwork after it is not.

Print this one as often as you like. When the filing starts to cost more than the inspection, Zeus keeps the job, the address, the photos and the finished report in one place on your phone. It all works with no signal in a basement.
