Carpet cleaning checklist for Thornton Heath homes
This is the checklist our teams follow on every carpet and upholstery cleaning job in Thornton Heath CR7. It is the same standard whether you live in a studio flat or a five bedroom house, and we adapt it to your property before we start.
- 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 Thornton Heath
We clean a lot of Victorian and Edwardian terraces, many split into flats in Thornton Heath CR7. 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.
Tips before your carpet cleaning in Thornton Heath
Our cleaners in Thornton Heath share these tips with every customer.
- Have carpets cleaned every 12 to 18 months, or more often with pets and children.
- Vacuum high-traffic areas between professional cleans to stop grit wearing the fibres.
- Move small items and breakables before we arrive; we can move light furniture.
- Ask about pet odour treatment if you have cats or dogs.
