When you need professional carpet cleaning in Dyer, you want a neighborhood team that knows the area. Ajax Carpet Service has been family-owned and operated since 1978, working out of our Hammond headquarters and serving Dyer homes from Briar Cove to Castlewood to the streets around Pheasant Hills Park. Dyer is a quiet, family-focused border town with quick access to both I-394 in Illinois and the I-65 corridor, with extensive 1990s and 2000s subdivisions in addition to mid-century ranches closer to the Illinois state line — and we've been taking care of carpets in homes just like yours for over four decades.
For carpet cleaning we rely on truck-mounted hot water extraction — the deep-cleaning method recommended by virtually every major carpet manufacturer. That means lifting embedded soil, allergens, road salt, and pet dander out of carpet fibers without leaving a soapy residue behind, so your home looks and feels noticeably fresher when we're done. We handle the kind of wear Dyer carpets actually face: tracked-in grit, winter salt stains, food spills, and the general dulling that comes from years of foot traffic. Whether you live in an established home near Northgate Park or a newer build closer to U.S. 30 and Calumet Avenue, we approach every job with the same care and the same honest pricing.
We understand that life in Dyer is busy — between work, school events, weekends spent at the Pennsy Greenway, and everything in between. You don't have time to coordinate around a contractor who shows up late, leaves a mess, or surprises you with add-ons at the end. We arrive when we say we will, do the job we agreed to, and clean up after ourselves. That's the bare minimum for a hometown company that wants to still be in business in another forty years.
Because we've been based in Lake County since 1978, we know the conditions Dyer homes face — humid summers, salt-and-slush winters, and the kind of grit that gets tracked in off U.S. 30 and Calumet Avenue. We also know the difference between work that holds up and work that doesn't. Every job gets the same equipment and the same attention to detail, whether it's a one-room carpet cleaning call or a whole-house project.
If you've been putting off a carpet cleaning project at your Dyer home, this is your sign to take care of it. We serve every part of town — Briar Cove, Castlewood, Pheasant Hills, and the areas around Pheasant Hills Park and Northgate Park.

Our Deep Cleaning Process for Dyer Homes
Every Dyer job starts the same way: we walk the home with you, identify the high-traffic lanes and the trouble spots, and pre-treat anything that needs extra attention. Then we bring in the hose from our truck-mounted unit — the equipment stays outside, so there's no loud machinery indoors and the dirty water never ends up in your sink. The water is heated well above what any portable unit can produce, which is what actually loosens the soil packed down between the fibers. We work in slow, overlapping passes, and we finish by extracting as much moisture as the equipment will pull out so the carpet is dry to the touch in hours, not days. It's the same process we've been refining since 1978, and it's why so many Dyer families call us back year after year.
Why Truck-Mounted Matters in Dyer
Dyer carpets take a beating from Northwest Indiana weather. Lake-effect snow means months of salt and slush tracked across entryways. Spring brings mud from the yard. Summer brings pollen blown in through open windows. A portable shampooer rented from the hardware store simply doesn't have the heat or vacuum power to deal with that level of buildup — it tends to push dirt deeper and leave the carpet wet for days. Our truck-mounted system delivers consistent high temperatures and powerful extraction that residential units can't match. That's why we run truck-mounts exclusively on every Dyer job, no exceptions.
Honest, Local Service Since 1978
We're not a national chain selling discount coupons. Ajax Carpet Service has been family-owned and operated out of Hammond since 1978, and we work the same Lake County neighborhoods our parents and grandparents worked. When we give you an evaluation for your Dyer home, the number we quote is the number you pay — no upsells in the middle of the job, no surprise add-ons. If your carpet doesn't need a particular treatment, we'll tell you. We'd rather have your trust for the next twenty years than squeeze a few extra dollars out of one visit.
Frequently Asked Questions
What neighborhoods in Dyer do you serve?
We serve every part of Dyer, including Briar Cove, Castlewood, Pheasant Hills, Sheffield Estates, Northgate Park, and Castle Court, plus the areas around Pheasant Hills Park and Northgate Park. Because we're based in Hammond, we're a short drive from anywhere in Dyer and can usually schedule quickly. Call (219) 933-1019 and let us know where you are.
How long does it take for the carpet to dry?
Most Dyer jobs are dry to the touch in 6 to 12 hours. Because our truck-mounted system pulls so much moisture back out of the carpet, drying is significantly faster than with a portable rental unit. Running ceiling fans and keeping the HVAC on speeds it up further.
Do I need to vacuum before you arrive?
A quick vacuum helps, but it's not required. Our pre-treatment and hot water extraction handles the heavy lifting. Just make sure we have a clear path to the rooms being cleaned.
Can you remove pet odors and tough spots?
Most household spots come out with our hot water extraction process, and we have additional treatments for pet accidents and stubborn stains. When you call (219) 933-1019, describe what you're dealing with and we'll tell you honestly whether it's likely to come fully out, partially out, or need a different approach.
Is the process safe for kids and pets?
Yes. Hot water extraction uses heat and water as the primary cleaning agents, with minimal cleaning solution. Once the carpet is dry, the home is fully safe for kids and pets.
