Carpet Cleaning
Our professional carpet cleaning service utilises truck-mounted systems 25 times more powerful than standard equipment. We employ pre-softened hot water extraction combined with eco-friendly detergents to remove deep-seated dirt and stains while preserving carpet fibres. The process includes comprehensive stain analysis, tailored chemical application, and moisture extraction that leaves carpets dry within hours. This service suits both residential properties and commercial premises across London and the South East.
Rug Cleaning
Specialist rug cleaning caters to all rug types including antique, Persian, and modern varieties. We use pH-balanced solutions and appropriate methods ranging from dry cleaning for silk rugs to steam cleaning for durable wool varieties. Our technicians understand different weaving techniques and materials, ensuring colourfastness and fabric integrity during deep-cleaning processes that remove embedded dirt and allergens.
Upholstery Cleaning
This service addresses fabric upholstery cleaning for domestic and commercial furniture. We employ techniques suitable for various materials including velvet, linen, and synthetic fabrics. The process removes stubborn stains and allergens without damaging delicate textiles, using non-abrasive solutions that maintain fabric texture and colour vibrancy while providing protective treatments against future soiling.
Curtain Cleaning
Our curtain cleaning service handles all curtain types from heavy drapes to delicate sheers. Using eco-friendly solutions and appropriate equipment, we clean fabrics in situ where possible, employing spot-free techniques that maintain fabric softness and appearance. The process includes careful handling of hardware and guarantees no shrinkage or colour fading during the cleaning process.
Mattress Cleaning
Professional mattress cleaning eliminates dust mites, bacteria, and allergens using high-temperature steam extraction. The service targets deep-cleaning of mattress fibres to remove body oils, dead skin cells, and other contaminants that accumulate over time. This hygienic treatment helps reduce allergy triggers while extending mattress lifespan through thorough sanitisation and deodorisation.
