All Seasons Chem-Dry operates out of Santa Barbara with a 4.6-star Google rating across 13 reviews, though the feedback tells two different stories. The majority of customers—especially those dealing with pet damage and stubborn stains—praise the company's thorough work and faster drying times compared to steam cleaners. One reviewer mentioned a three-hour job on heavily soiled carpet that looked "like new" afterward, and another highlighted successful odor removal on what seemed like a replacement-level mess. The company lists water damage restoration as a core service, which aligns with the disaster-response work I coordinated after the 2018 debris flows, though I see no recent reviews specifically mentioning flood or leak jobs.
The caution flag: one angry 2017 review claims the company wouldn't stand behind work when a new stain appeared after cleaning, requiring customers to sign off while upholstery was still wet. That's a legitimate concern—any cleaning contractor should allow you to inspect results after full drying, especially on furniture. Reviews mention different technicians (Eric, Gary), so consistency may vary. The sparse review count since 2020 makes it hard to gauge current performance. If you're considering them for water damage beyond routine carpet cleaning, ask specific questions about their restoration process, drying equipment, and how they handle callbacks if issues surface after the initial visit.
