Carpet cleaning checklist for Selhurst homes
Every carpet and upholstery cleaning job in Selhurst follows a written, room-by-room checklist, so nothing depends on memory. Before we start, we walk through the property with you or your agent and adjust the list to suit it.
- Inspection: we check the fibre type, test for colour fastness and identify stains.
- Vacuuming: dry soil is removed first with a commercial vacuum.
- Pre-treatment: stains and high-traffic areas are pre-treated with the right product.
- Hot water extraction: the carpet is deep cleaned and the dirty water extracted.
- Grooming: the pile is groomed so it dries evenly and looks its best.
- Drying: most carpets are dry in two to four hours, depending on ventilation.
Carpet and upholstery cleaning for Victorian and Edwardian terraces, many split into flats in Selhurst
Most homes in Selhurst are Victorian and Edwardian terraces, many split into flats, and each type has its own cleaning challenges. Period terraces have sash windows, picture rails, original fireplaces and tiled hallways that collect dust. Hallways, stairs and lounges get the most wear, and our hot water extraction lifts deep dirt so carpets dry in a few hours.
In conversions we pay extra attention to shared entrances, steep stairs and small kitchens where grease builds up fast. We know the area around Selhurst Park, home of Crystal Palace FC well.
Tips before your carpet cleaning in Selhurst
Our cleaners in Selhurst share these tips with every customer.
- Blot spills straight away with a clean white cloth; never rub, as it spreads the stain.
- Book carpet cleaning with your end of tenancy clean so both are done in one visit.
- Avoid walking on damp carpets in outdoor shoes until they are fully dry.
- Open windows or run the heating after your clean so carpets in your Selhurst home dry within a few hours.
