A home carpet cleaner can be useful for suitable light cleaning. Professional cleaning adds an assessment of the material and condition, with equipment and treatment selected for the particular job.
When home cleaning may suit
Start with the carpet manufacturer’s instructions and the machine’s directions. Check that the fibre and backing are suitable, use only the recommended product and dosage, and plan enough time for the carpet to dry.
The hire price is only part of the cost. Consider products, moving furniture, collection, cleaning time and drying arrangements.
When a professional assessment helps
Ask for advice about wool, natural fibres, delicate carpets, persistent odours or an unidentified stain. Previous attempts and cleaning products can affect the next treatment, so tell us what has already been used.
Professional equipment does not make every mark removable. Permanent staining, wear and fading may remain after the soil has been cleaned.
Avoid common mistakes
Too much product, repeated wet passes and poor extraction can create further problems. Do not keep adding different stain removers if the first attempt has failed.
Compare clear quotes
Compare the areas included, access requirements, treatment, realistic results and total visit price. Our minimum is £55 for the whole visit, not an additional charge on top of a listed clean.
