What Carpet, Tile, and Upholstery Cleaning Costs in Jupiter

By Jonathan Mullarkey, owner of Superclean Services. IICRC-certified. Updated August 2026.

I'm Jonathan, and I've owned Superclean Services for 27 years. People ask what this costs before they ask anything else, so I'll answer that first and then tell you what you're actually paying for. The second part is the part that matters.

I started in 1999 at twenty years old with a $500 pressure washer from Sam's Club and my dad telling me to go figure it out. I read the directions, did his driveway, and the neighbor asked what I'd charge for her house. I said $500 without looking at it. That first year I made a hundred grand and dropped out of college.

I grew that first company to thirty employees, which I hated, sold it, and moved down here to rebuild it small on purpose. Now it's me and DJ. That's the whole company, and that's how I want it.

What you're actually paying for

Most people never get told this part. We put down an introduction solution, then we neutralize it with proper extraction and proper technique. That neutralizing step is the one that gets skipped, and skipping it is why a carpet cleaned in the spring looks dirty again by summer. Residue left in the fiber attracts soil. Cut that corner and all you've really done is schedule the next cleaning.

We use consumer-friendly chemicals from New Line, made here in Florida. I'm not out back mixing a secret sauce nobody has heard of. I'm spraying this in a room I'm standing in, so I care what's in it, and I'll hand you the label and leave some behind if you want it.

I'm IICRC-certified, which stands for the Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification, in carpet cleaning, hard surface restoration, water restoration, and several other categories. DJ is certified in carpet cleaning. Anyone new trains with the two of us before running a job alone.

I want to know that nobody is going to walk in behind me and say, watch this. And I know I can walk in behind them and say, watch this, because I do the most thorough cleaning possible. There are a lot of corners to be cut in this business.

Why the number moves

Size is the first thing. Residential carpet is priced per room. Tile and commercial carpet are per square foot, because that's how those jobs actually scale, and the per-foot rate on commercial work drops meaningfully past 50,000 square feet. Bigger buildings cost less per foot because setup time spreads across more work.

On upholstery, the whole question is whether the cushions come off. If they lift out, I clean the top and the underside. If they're sewn down, there's less to reach, and the rate drops.

Then there's condition. Standard soil is standard pricing. Years of pet accidents or heavy staining are not standard, and I'll say so on the spot rather than pretend and surprise you later.

Weekends are the last one. Residential weekend work carries a $500 minimum, though you can call any hour of any day to get on the schedule.

What you won't find here

No coupons. No twenty percent off, no buy one get one. Those attract people shopping on price alone, and price shopping is how you end up with somebody who rushes your carpet and leaves.

And no piecemealing. The most common complaint in this business is the price moving once somebody is already in your house. That spot is another ten dollars, the stairs are extra, the hallway counts as a room. We build the price up front and that's the price. DJ will walk in the door and the same number comes out of his mouth that came out of mine on the phone.

Tile isn't the side service

The branding says carpet cleaning, and carpet is half of what we do. But this is Florida, and we do more tile than carpet. Most homes down here are tile through the main living space, and grout is porous, so it holds everything that ever got mopped into it.

If your grout lines have gone from light gray to dark gray over a few years, they aren't stained. They're dirty. There's usually a lot more color under there than people expect. I break the numbers down further in what tile and grout cleaning costs, and the service itself is on the tile and grout cleaning page.

What people say after we leave

Those are two of many. The rest are on our customer reviews page. That first one happens more than you'd think. I try to keep my schedule clear after one o'clock, so when somebody calls at noon because their cleaner never showed and their furniture is already moved, I can usually be there by three. We try to be Johnny on the spot about it.

How often you actually need this

Less often than most companies will tell you. We aren't going to call you in six months, and there's nothing to sign up for.

Because we pull the residue out properly, our carpets stay clean longer. Most households without a particular problem I see about once every year and a half to two years. Seasonal residents who want everything right when they arrive, once a year. Dogs, about every six months. We go on your schedule, not a subscription.

What you get when you call

• Me on the phone. The advertised number is my cell.
• A price before we start, built for the whole job, not room by room as we go.
• The day and time you pick, not the slot I want to give you.
• A text when the job goes on the schedule, and another when we're on the way.
• Certified technique, New Line products, and the label if you want to read it.
• Secure payment when it's done.

You can count on us to answer the phone, arrive on time, and finish the job. If you have a couch or a rug and you want a number fast, text me a photo. That's how most of these conversations end up anyway.
