Quality Cleaning for Quality Carpets

Wool Carpets
Wool is a natural fibre, so it is imperative that a safe cleaning solution is used to prevent damage to the fibre. Rest assured, as trained professionals, we have suitable, safe and effective cleaning solutions for Wool. We have the knowhow to tackle whatever cleaning task is presented to us.
Maintain your wool carpet regularly – Regular vacuuming removes grit, dirt and soils that would otherwise damage fibres. Leading industry bodies and most carpet mills recommend that carpets and rugs are cleaned every year to keep a healthy indoor environment for you and your family.
Extend the life of your carpet – Regular maintenance of your carpet will not only prolong its life, but will save you ££££s in replacement costs! Some of our clients’ Wool carpets look as fresh as the day they were laid, even after 10+ yrs!
Our Dry Fusion system is perfect for cleaning Wool carpets as it is WoolSafe approved, speeds up the drying process and cures a protector on the fibres.
Suffer from allergies?
Do you have symptoms of Sneezing, Wheezing or Runny eyes?
Need a Deep clean for your health?
Did you know?
Dust mites and fungal mould are linked to over 55% of asthma cases and other allergy related conditions to include eczema, rhinitis, sinusitis, coughs and watery eyes.
How deep cleaning can help allergies
Allergen sensitivity has been on the increase over the last 20 years, especially in children. It is estimated that over 50% of children have some form of allergy with a majority of them not being diagnosed until they are fully sensitised!
Symptoms that can indicate an underlying sensitivity to allergens are so common these days that people don’t even realise it’s a reaction! Pollution in our environment is a dominating factor but pollutants within our homes are also being blamed. These underlying symptoms can include: sneezing, runny eyes and nose, sinus pain, coughing and wheezing, sore throats, rashes and swelling.
For the past 20-30 years, professional carpet and upholstery cleaning was regarded as only necessary for cosmetic reasons or to remove stains. Furthermore, this was carried out by untrained operators with underpowered, low-tech machines, many of whom still operate to this day!
Countries such as the USA, Canada and Australia have recognised the importance of keeping a healthy living environment to tackle these allergies. In recent years cleaning equipment has become more advanced, more powerful and, with improved industry knowledge, the quality of professional deep cleaning has prevailed.
You can significantly reduce exposure to allergens by regularly cleaning your carpets and upholstery and periodically employing a fully-trained, qualified professional for a deep clean.

Our Carpet Cleaning Process
Our deep cleaning method extracts dirt, grit, bacteria, pollens and stains from the fibres leaving them soft to the touch and hygienically clean. It might seem a lot of work but we carry out these steps to provide you with the WOW factor when you walk into your home.
Prior to arrival we survey all jobs to identify carpet construction and type of fibre. We measure the area(s) to offer you a quote based on the measurement. The survey is a great opportunity for you to meet us too so we can answer any questions you may have and highlight any areas of concern.
On our survey we assess what furniture will need to be moved. We are happy to move a few items but it would be helpful if the areas are clear before we arrive. This will save time and enable us to leave you to enjoy your new environment sooner.
We use a commercial grade vacuum to remove dry soils, grit, pollens and allergens.
We use a comprehensive Professional Spotting Kit with a selection of cutting edge solutions to remove most spots and stains.
Our environmentally friendly, non-harmful pre-clean is used to break down soils from the fibres.
A machine with nylon bristles is used to gently massage the pre-clean, further loosening and suspending the soils ready for extraction. The pre-clean and agitation are very important cleaning steps and should not be skipped!
HWE – We use a powered wand coupled to one of the most advanced portable extraction machines on the market! The wand moves in a circular motion, further agitating the fibres and rinses from deep within the pile. This action not only flushes suspended soils from deep within, it also extracts a great degree of moisture leaving the carpets drier!!
Dry Fusion – Dry Fusion is an alternative method to extracting the suspended soils by using a heated pad system. Carpets dry quicker, are deodorised and stain protected.
We will advise the most suitable method of soil extraction for your carpet type and environment prior to booking.
DOUBLE VALUE PROTECTION! – Our Stain Shield with Allergy Shield protector offers two functions.
Fibre Protection – Stainshield is a fluorocarbon fibre protector which forms an invisible shield around your carpet fibres repelling spills. This allows you the time to easily mop up the spill with either kitchen towel or tissues. Stainshield does not affect the feel, texture or colour of the fibre and still maintains fire-retardant properties. Fibre protection aids maintenance cleaning which in turn reduces the rate of wear increasing the longevity of your carpets.
Allergy Protection – Allergyshield (ACTIGARD) is a proven treatment that kills dust mites and eliminates the food chain that mites feed on, offering a barrier against further procreation. Notwithstanding safety or environmental considerations, ACTIGARD is a safe, proven formula that offers permanent infestation protection even after maintenance cleaning. It will also kill most other infestations to include fleas, bed bugs, carpet beetle, moths, cockroaches, bacteria and the growth of mould. Allergyshield also kills other infestations to include carpet moths, carpet beetles and other textile pests that can ruin your carpets.
DID YOU KNOW?
Dust mites and fungal mould are linked to over 55% of asthma cases and other allergy related conditions to include eczema, rhinitis, sinusitis, coughs and watery eyes.
The carpet is brushed to reset the nap of the pile, leaving the carpet looking uniform. (Not applicable to Berber/Loop carpets)
Air movers are used to speed dry the carpets. This is especially beneficial for Wool carpets and those that are in poorly ventilated or large areas.
Important Note: If a cleaning solution is not thoroughly rinsed from the fibres, it becomes sticky and rapidly attracts re-soiling!! This is the problem when using domestic, hire or lesser-powered machines.
Important Note:
100% stain removal cannot be guaranteed
This is due to several factors – type of stain, type of carpet fibre, length of time the stain has been present or whether the homeowner has already used a domestic stain remover.
In most cases, the stain can be completely removed, or at least greatly reduced.

Low Moisture Dry Fusion Carpet Cleaning
Clean – Deodorised – Stain Protected – Dry
(in as little as 30 mins!)
Dry Fusion is the only professional carpet care system that uses heat to Clean, Deodorise, Stain Protect and Dry all types of carpet!
Dry Fusion takes all of the best features of ‘Hot Water Extraction’ plus the best features of ‘Dry Cleaning’ and combines them together in a patented hot cleaning pad system.
Stain Blocker
A unique additive helps block dye sites in the fibre that normally allow food spills and beverages becoming ugly stains. When cleaned with Dry Fusion most stains are removed without spotting or special effort.
Bonus Protector Included
A Fluorocarbon Resin places an invisible protective shield over every fibre during the cleaning process which helps prevent dry soils and spills lodging within the carpet. When you use the Dry Fusion cleaning system, the ‘non-stick’ coating enables more soils to be removed during post maintenance vacuuming.
