· 54 reviewsExcellent service. Easy to book online and a reasonable price. Good communication and Andy was very polite friendly and efficient. Around 2 hours to complete the job - around 55 sq metres (3 rooms) and a stairs hallway and landing. £178.50. Carpets are old but they came up really well. Definitely worth it rather than trying rug doctor.

Frequently asked questions
Straight answers, including the prices. Anything else, call us on 01268 225511.
Every rug is £30 and up, wool and Persian included, against a £60 minimum visit, which is why one rug pairs well with another job. The figure is agreed first, locked for 14 days, paid after.
Synthetics: 2–3 hours. Wool and thicker piles want anywhere between four and eight depending on the weather and how dense the weave is. Flat drying keeps the shape true.
Yes, they are the pieces we take most care over. A hidden-spot dye and fibre test comes first, then a gentle low-moisture clean matched to the rug.
They will not, because colourfastness gets proven before the clean starts. A rug that cannot take water safely gets a dry method, and you are told either way.
Yes. Enzymes dissolve what the smell is stored in, so the odour goes at the source. Fresh accidents clear fully; older ones fade substantially.
Normally inside the week, with the rug itself done in under an hour at your home. We work Mon 8am–5pm, Tue–Fri 9am–7pm, Sat 11:50am–7pm, Sun 10am–5pm.
At home, always. The rug never leaves the house: wool, Persian and everyday pieces alike are cleaned where they live, usually within the hour.
Included. Always. Hand-cleaning keeps the tassels strong while the fringes come up bright.
Happily. Deep pile hides far more grit than a flat weave and rewards extraction dramatically, and a post-clean groom stops it drying matted.
Every 12 to 18 months in most homes, 6–9 with pets or children. The hallway runner earns its clean soonest.
Entirely. Non-toxic, biodegradable solutions, fully rinsed out, and the rug is safe for sitting, playing and napping the moment it dries.
Set the cleaning price against the replacement price, especially for wool or Persian pieces, and the answer is obvious. Testing, deep cleaning, deodorising and grooming bring the rug back bright for a fraction of what a new one costs.
