Local Carpet and Upholstery Cleaning Expert Recognized for Outstanding Service and Customer Satisfaction
ALABAMA – Welch’s Chem-Dry, the carpet and upholstery cleaning service that uses the power of carbonation to efficiently clean thousands of households worldwide on a daily basis, has won the 2025 Perpetual Excellence Award at the brand’s annual convention.
Welch’s Chem-Dry was established in 1997, and is owned and operated by David and Janet Welch. The Perpetual Excellence award is presented to a franchise that has consistently demonstrated superior service and customer satisfaction.
“Winning this award is a great honor and serves as a testament to our hard work and commitment to representing both Chem-Dry and BELFOR as a whole,” said David Welch, co-owner of Welch’s Chem-Dry. “Our business is set apart by our dedication to showing up on time with a professional attitude. As a friendly, knowledgeable, and reliable team that always strives to exceed customer expectations, this award truly means the world to us.”
“David and Janet embody the core values of the Chem-Dry brand due to their unwavering commitment to providing a deep, all-encompassing clean while prioritizing customer satisfaction,” said Ed Quinlan, President of Chem-Dry. “Their stellar business performance and dedication to providing exceptional service has truly set their business apart. We’re delighted to see them win the Perpetual Excellence award and look forward to seeing their continued success and growth as top-performing franchise owners.”
Since its founding in 1977, Chem-Dry has grown to become one of the world’s most trusted names in carpet cleaning, with over 3,000 franchisees worldwide. Most carpet cleaning companies use steam cleaning, which relies on harsh chemicals and excessive amounts of water. Meanwhile, Chem-Dry uses an innovative process known as Hot Carbonating Extraction (HCE) to deeply clean carpets using a fraction of the water required for steam cleaning. What began decades ago as a simple process for removing spills eventually created the foundation for the company’s HCE process and changed the industry forever as an alternative to traditional steam cleaning.
Chem-Dry has the added advantage of being part of the BELFOR Franchise Group family of brands. BELFOR Franchise Group is the world’s largest residential and commercial services franchisor based on geographic footprint, and has over a decade of experience growing brands and helping entrepreneurs grow their businesses through industry-leading training, support and equipment, turnkey business models, and ongoing coaching and business development.
