Services
Carpet Cleaning
Our professional carpet cleaning service utilises hot water extraction and dry cleaning methods to remove deep-seated dirt and stains. We employ residue-free solutions that prolong carpet life while ensuring quick drying times. Our technicians have over 30 years' experience restoring carpets to like-new condition for both residential and commercial clients across Hertfordshire and Bedfordshire.
Upholstery Cleaning
Specialising in both fabric and leather upholstery cleaning, our technicians use expert stain removal techniques that preserve material integrity. We serve private clients and businesses, with particular expertise in restoring furniture for top retailers and manufacturers. Our service includes Scotchgard protection application to maintain results longer.
Hot Water Extraction
This deep cleaning method uses heated water extraction to remove embedded dirt and allergens from carpets. Our advanced equipment ensures thorough cleaning while maintaining carpet pile structure. The process typically takes 20-30 minutes per room with complete drying achieved within 4-6 hours.
Scotchgard Protection
We apply 3M Scotchgard treatments to create invisible barriers against spills and stains on carpets and upholstery. This protective coating extends the time available to clean up accidents while maintaining fabric breathability. The treatment is particularly recommended for households with children or pets.
Rug Cleaning
Our specialists handle both small and large rug cleaning with care, using appropriate methods for different materials including wool, silk, and synthetic fibres. We offer both on-site and workshop cleaning options, with particular expertise in restoring antique and valuable rugs to their original condition.
