In 2006, Chem-Dry was acquired by The Home Depot. Chem-Dry uses hot carbonated extraction, which is a drier process than steam cleaning.

The interview procedure at Chem-Dry is similar to competitors. There is a basic skills assessment which covers subjects including but not limited to reading, writing, speaking, and basic math. Applicants must bring their resume with them to the interview. Some applicants go through a phone screening before progressing to an in person interview. Former employees have reported that it is important to show that you are capable of handling stressful situations, working in a fast paced setting, have a flexible schedule, and collaborating with others. Once through the interview process, all new hires are required to go through a basic training.
