Look at the carpet
High-traffic paths, stains and problem spots.
Carpet collects dirt and stains fast in busy offices, and it shows in traffic lanes and entrances. Regular deep cleaning keeps it looking new.
Astra provides hot-water extraction, spot and stain treatment and routine carpet care for offices, hallways and common areas.
For the fastest return to normal, we often recommend scheduling extraction over a weekend.

Regular extraction keeps carpet looking newer for longer.
Office carpet rarely soils evenly. The paths from the entrance to the desks, the area around the coffee station and the spots under rolling chairs darken long before the corners do. Those traffic lanes trap fine grit that vacuuming leaves behind, and over time the fibers flatten and turn gray.
Hot-water extraction flushes that grit out of the pile and brings the color back. Treating traffic lanes on a regular cycle, even between full-room cleanings, keeps the carpet looking even instead of patchy.
Before the visit, clear the floor of boxes, bins and loose cables and point out any stains you want handled first. We clean the whole area or focus on the lanes and spots you’ve marked, then give the carpet time to dry before anyone walks on it.
Weekend visits are easiest for most offices. Businesses open on Saturdays often choose a Saturday night or Sunday slot instead, so Monday starts on clean, dry carpet.
Professional offices in Santa Rosa and Concord, corporate offices around the Roseville Galleria area and high-rise offices in Sacramento all rely on carpet to quiet busy floors. Apartment common areas take a different kind of wear, with moving dollies, carts and deliveries rolling down the same hallway every day.
Pair extraction with nightly office cleaning so the carpet is vacuumed between deep cleans, and with floor care for the tile at entrances and kitchens.
In 2026 published rates for carpet work, most hot-water extraction jobs in the cities we serve land between $0.18 and $0.44 a square foot per cleaning. Big, lightly soiled floors in northern Nevada can come in near $0.11, and small San Francisco jobs with heavy staining or lots of furniture to move can reach $0.70.
Multiply the carpeted area by the rate and by how many times a year you clean. An 11,000-square-foot office floor in San Francisco extracted at $0.28 comes to $3,080 per cleaning. Three cleanings a year add up to $9,240; twice a year comes to $6,160.
Soil level swings the price most. Traffic lanes from the entrance, coffee spills around the kitchen and grit under rolling chairs need pre-treatment and extra passes. Moving desks, working around cubicle panels and scheduling over a weekend so carpet dries by Monday all add time, and a tower with freight elevator booking takes longer than a ground-floor suite. Regular vacuuming by your nightly team keeps dirt from working deep into the pile, which shortens each extraction. Spot and stain treatment between deep cleanings can be part of your regular plan. We measure the carpeted areas at a free walkthrough and set the schedule and price in a written plan and quote.
A few useful answers
Busy offices usually book a deep clean a few times a year, with routine vacuuming in between.
Over a weekend, so the carpet has time to dry before your team returns.
Yes, spot and stain treatment is part of the service.
Clear bins, boxes and loose cables from the floor. The crew moves chairs and light furniture and works around heavy desks you would rather leave in place.
Yes. Extraction sits in the plan as its own scheduled line, and your nightly crew vacuums in between.
Yes. Extraction can be booked for the busiest zones, such as the entrance, main hallway and breakroom, with quieter offices left for a later visit.
Yes. Removing the grit that grinds against the fibers slows the flattening and graying that make carpet look old before its time.
Most carpet is dry within several hours. Thick pile, humid weather and heavily soiled lanes that needed extra passes take longer, which is why extraction is booked for evenings and weekends.
