Highly recommend! Rick is both extremely friendly and professional and provides a first class service. He came to give our carpets a refresh and we are extremely happy with the results - would definitely use again in a heartbeat. Thanks Rick!



Richard came and cleaned my 2 armchairs and sofa and I can’t believe the difference they look new again and smell amazing!! Would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone needing their carpet or chairs cleaned!



I’ve had a couple of jobs done by Rick now and both times I’ve been amazed at the results he achieved. A carpet that I thought would need to be replaced came up brilliantly. I can and have highly recommended Rick to my friends and colleagues. Cheers 👍🏼

Are your cleaning products safe for pets and children?

How often should I get my carpets professionally cleaned
We recommend professional cleaning at least once a year. Homes with pets or children may need more frequent service.
How long will it take for my carpets to dry after cleaning?
Typically, carpets take about 4 to 6 hours to dry completely, depending on the ventilation and the temperature within your home.
Do you offer a guarantee on your services
Yes, we offer a satisfaction guarantee. If you are not fully satisfied with our cleaning results, we will re-clean the concerned areas free of charge.
Can you remove all types of carpet stains?
While we can remove most stains, some very old or particular dye stains like wine or ink can be challenging to fully eliminate. However, we can significantly reduce their appearance and offer advice for future stain management.

Payment is due on receipt unless a prior written agreement is already in place. Any late payments will be subject to a 15% late fee. Invoices may be settled promptly via debit/credit card, electronic bank transfer, or cleared funds upon job sign-off.
All verbal or digital quotes are accurate estimates based on client specifications. Pricing remains subject to a brief on-site survey before work begins to confirm room dimensions, fibre construction, and degree of soiling.
Clients must provide suitable vehicle parking within close reach of the premises, reliable key/entry access, and continuous supply of working electricity and hot water required for our commercial extraction equipment.
We kindly request at least 48 hours notice for any booking cancellations or rescheduling requests. Short-notice cancellations within 24 hours may incur a modest administrative fee to cover allocated technician scheduling.
While our professional solutions resolve the vast majority of common household marks, complete eradication cannot be guaranteed for chemical dye transfers, bleached patches, aged animal stains, or burnt fibres where permanent chemical alteration has taken place.
Typically, carpets take about 4 to 6 hours to dry completely, depending on the ventilation and the temperature within your home. We advise keeping windows ajar, operating central heating at mild settings, and refraining from outdoor footwear on newly treated carpets.
We disclaim liability for pre-existing fabric thinning, manufacturer seam breakdown, or sun degradation exposed during cleaning. Delicate, vintage, or unlabelled designer fabrics are cleaned strictly according to professional best practices at client discretion.
To protect your household, young children and domestic pets must be kept safely away from the treatment area, electrical extension lines, and heavy-duty extraction hoses throughout setup, operation, and pack-down.
Your complete peace of mind matters to us. Any concerns must be reported in writing within 48 hours of service completion. In the unlikely event of an unresolved issue, we will happily arrange a complimentary re-inspection and corrective re-treatment.
