SAN LEANDRO You can call him a creature of habit, a Steady Eddie, or slightly mundane. It doesn't matter. Joe Appleby, owner of 30-year-old Appleby Cleaning and Restoration, is convinced the calm and redundant way he runs his business is why it's still around. Toward the end of 2008, when the economy soured, Appleby saw a decline in business and was forced to lay off employees for the first time.
But he knows it could have been worse if he had built the business carelessly. And where that consistency starts is in the image of his business. Because being a carpet cleaner doesn't require a license, there's plenty of options for customers. There's also a vast range in quality. By presenting a polished look, Appleby sees it as a great chance to differentiate himself from the crowd.

I brought in my shaggy area rug that was slightly matted from previous use and had a new stain from an accident that my dog had on 4th of July due to fireworks. I tried washing it myself but had no success, so I called around and was lucky enough to find Appleby.
When I first called in, I was greeted by a friendly receptionist who told me the details of how they clean the rug, which I really appreciated. They gave me a great quote that was very competitive and I proceeded to drop off my rug that day. The gentleman that I spoke with was awesome and made me feel very comfortable. It was ready to

My cream colored oriental style rug and runner are about 15 years old and had never been professionally cleaned. After living in a house with two cats and two kids, they needed professional help. Appleby's cleaning removed stains, we can tell it's cream again (vs dingy grey) and they look great. Customer service was great, prompt and communicative. Highly recommend!

My wife and I got our kitchen counters (marble) polished and resealed. The gentlemen who worked on our project were both Joey and Leo, both extremely professional. They answered any and all questions I had, were punctual, and finished the job right on time. My wife and I both feel we have a brand new kitchen, so needless to say their work was nothing short of amazing. We will certainly use Appleby again for our future needs.

It is with great pleasure that I give my highest recommendation to Appleby Cleaning and Restoration. My family, my businesses, and my friends have been using Appleby Cleaning since the 1970’s and I have found that, like a fine wine, they only get better with age.
I am proud to say I’ve seen Appleby Cleaning grow from a one-man portable extraction… carpet cleaning service to a state-of-the-art truck mounted carpet cleaning and hard surface cleaner. You can’t stay in a service business for over 5 decades without an excellent reputation, and Appleby certainly has one.
