Who is Drymaster?
Drymaster commenced operations in 1990.
The business was started as a 1 van operation supplying carpet
cleaning services to the North Shore area of Sydney.
In 1993 Drymaster took on its first employees and expanded its
operations to cover all of the Sydney Metropolitan area.
In 2005 through aggressive marketing campaigns Drymaster has
expanded its operations to Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide

Drymaster provides its customers with a simple formula “Your
choice of Dry or Steam”.
This formula offers the customer more choice of services

carpet steam cleaning, fabric sofa cleaning, leather sofa
cleaning, water damage restoration, carpet and fabric
protection, specialized spot and stain removal, anti allergen
