Why choose us
We don’t just clean carpets, we restore them. Every job uses commercial-grade equipment, pH-tested stain treatment, and methods matched to your specific carpet material.

Our steam cleaning process uses pressurised hot water to penetrate deep into carpet fibres, dislodging embedded dirt, bacteria and allergens that vacuuming alone cannot reach. With 95% moisture extraction, carpets dry in hours, not days.
All cleaning solutions are eco-friendly, non-toxic and completely harmless to humans and pets. You can walk on the carpet immediately after cleaning and there’s no need to vacate your home during or after the service.
We test every stain before treatment and apply an alkaline or acidic solution based on its pH, the correct chemistry for the specific stain type. This is why our results outperform generic carpet cleaning services that use one-size-fits-all products.
Pre-vacuuming and stain pre-treatment are included in every job — no extras charged on the day. Some companies quote a base rate then add stain treatment, fuel levies and access fees. We don’t. Your quote is your final price.
Older carpet cleaning machines left carpets wet for a day or more, raising the risk of mould and mildew. Our commercial equipment extracts 95% of moisture, so your carpet dries completely within 3–6 hours in a normally ventilated room.
We identify your carpet material, either over the phone or on site, and select the appropriate cleaning method. Not all carpets are suitable for steam cleaning. Natural fibres like wool and cotton require dry cleaning. We never apply the wrong method to protect your carpet’s warranty and integrity.
How it works
Every step is included in the quoted price. No shortcuts, no upselling on arrival.
1- Pre-inspection
We identify your carpet type and confirm the best cleaning method (steam or dry). Any pre-existing damage is documented before we begin.
2- Light furniture moved
We move light items like chairs and small tables at no extra cost. We clean around heavy furniture if it can’t be moved.
3- Power vacuuming
A commercial vacuum removes dry dirt and debris before cleaning, a crucial step for better results.
4- Pre-spray & stain treatment
Carpet is pre-sprayed, and stains are treated using the correct pH-based solution for maximum removal.
5- Steam cleaning
Hot water extraction removes deep dirt, bacteria, and allergens, the industry-recommended method.
6- Fast drying
Up to 95% moisture is extracted. Carpets are left damp and typically dry within 3–6 hours. You can walk on them immediately.
Why professional cleaning
Embedded grit and soil particles act like sandpaper, cutting carpet fibres with every footstep. Regular professional cleaning removes this abrasive material, significantly extending the life of the carpet and delaying replacement.
Most carpet warranties require hot water extraction cleaning every 12–18 months to remain valid. DIY cleaning or dry cleaning methods often don’t satisfy warranty conditions. Our service receipt provides documented proof of extraction cleaning, protecting your investment.
Carpets trap airborne pollutants, dust mite waste, pet dander, pollen and bacteria, at concentrations up to 100× higher than outdoor air. Steam cleaning at extraction temperature kills bacteria and removes allergens that vacuuming simply redistributes into the air.
A carpet acts as a filter, trapping pollutants until it becomes saturated. A saturated carpet starts releasing those pollutants with every footstep. Deep cleaning restores the carpet’s filtering capacity and improves the air quality of the entire room.
After your clean
Our 95% moisture extraction means your carpets dry far faster than older cleaning methods. Here’s exactly what to expect once our technician leaves.
The single most effective thing you can do to speed drying is open windows and create cross-ventilation. Even a slight breeze reduces drying time significantly. If outdoor air is humid, use an indoor fan instead.
Air conditioning in cooling or fan-only mode draws moisture from the air and dramatically speeds carpet drying. This is particularly effective in sealed apartments. 20 minutes of AC can reduce drying time by an hour or more.
You can walk on the carpet barefoot or in protective overshoes (we provide these) immediately after cleaning. Avoid walking in regular shoes until fully dry, dirty soles transfer grime onto a damp carpet much more easily than a dry one.

FAQ
Most carpets dry within 3–6 hours after steam cleaning, depending on material, room temperature and ventilation. Upholstery takes 8–12 hours. You can walk on carpets immediately barefoot or with overshoes.
Yes. Steam cleaning removes deep dirt, bacteria, allergens and stains that vacuuming cannot reach. It improves air quality, extends carpet life, and is required for most carpet warranties.
Only with proper treatment. We use enzyme-based pre-treatment to break down urine at the source. Steam cleaning alone is not enough for deep pet odours.
Most stains can be improved or removed, but results depend on stain type, age and previous treatments. Bleach damage and permanent dye loss cannot be reversed.
Professional cleaning is more effective. Hire machines lack extraction power and leave carpets wetter for longer, increasing risk of damage. Professional systems extract about 95% moisture and dry faster.
Yes. Steam cleaning removes deep dirt, bacteria, allergens and stains that vacuuming cannot reach. It improves air quality, extends carpet life, and is required for most carpet warranties.
Every 6–12 months. Homes with pets or high traffic should clean every 6 months. Most warranties require cleaning every 12–18 months.
A light damp smell is normal and disappears within a few hours. A strong smell usually comes from underlay issues or poor previous cleaning methods.
