Professional carpet cleaning service in London

In general, professional carpet cleaning results in a better clean than DIY methods, mainly because of the use of powerful equipment and specialised cleaning solutions. For light maintenance, DIY cleaning may be cheaper, but professionals tackle deep stains, odours, and extend carpet lifespans.

The best carpet cleaning method depends on the type of carpet fibre. Hot water extraction, often referred to as carpet steam cleaning, is one of the most effective carpet cleaning methods for wool, synthetic, and wool-blend carpets. This method not only delivers a deep clean but is also suitable for upholstery cleaning, mattress sanitising and curtain washing. On the other hand, dry carpet cleaning (or compound cleaning) is the preferred option for natural fibre carpets, such as viscose, tencel, seagrass, and jute. It uses minimal moisture, making it ideal for moisture-sensitive materials. Learn more about the advantages of steam cleaning vs dry cleaning and which is right for your needs.

The duration of a carpet cleaning service in London depends on several factors, including the size, condition, and type of carpet. As a rough estimate, cleaning a single bedroom carpet typically takes around 30 minutes. However, factors like heavily soiled areas, stain removal, and carpet fibre type may affect the overall time. Your London carpet cleaner will assess everything on-site and give you a more accurate time estimate.

Synthetic fibre carpets typically air-dry within 3 to 6 hours after professional cleaning. Wool carpets, being more absorbent, may take between 4 to 8 hours to dry completely. Drying time also depends on room ventilation, humidity levels, and whether you use fans or open windows to speed up the process after your carpet cleaning service in London.

The ideal frequency for professional carpet cleaning depends on your home's foot traffic and whether your carpets are treated with stain protection. For most residential carpets, we recommend scheduling a professional clean at least twice a year to maintain hygiene, extend the carpet’s lifespan, and keep your home looking fresh.

Step 1: Pretreating the item - In this method, we use a more advanced version of steam cleaning. Before the actual carpet cleaning procedure takes place, the technician will vacuum clean the piece to remove that first layer of loose dust. Then, if you booked our Prime Care Plan, he will examine the stains (if any) and choose the appropriate detergent for each. Spilt drinks, greasy food splatters, and so on – whatever it is, it will be dealt with accordingly. However, keep in mind some stains permanently damage the fabric and they are impossible to clean. If our methods can’t clean them, nothing will. Step 2: Main cleaning procedure - This is the most efficient and longer-lasting carpet cleaning method on the market. It brings even the most blemished and heavily-soiled textile floor coverings back to life. Here is how the steam carpet cleaning works: The technician uses a professional machine to deep clean every inch of the carpet. The nozzle ejects pressurised water mixed with a detergent. This easily dislodges all accumulated grime and dust. At the same time, a powerful suction attachment is removing all the excess moisture from the piece (along with the loosened dirt). This way, your carpet is being cleaned and dried at the same time, with no risk of damage – up to 80-90% of the moisture is removed almost simultaneously. NOTE: Fantastic Services does not hold any responsibility for damage that might occur on your carpeting after professional cleaning in case you have attempted to remove existing stains on your own by using unknown to us detergents of your choosing. Step 3: Stain protection - If you booked the Prime Care Plan - recommended for high-traffic areas. To protect your freshly cleaned items and prolong their life, your technician can use the highly effective stain repellent on them. The repellent is applied evenly on the pile of each individual item and provides reliable protection against all kinds of stains by not allowing them to settle on your rug's surface. This way, your items will remain fresh much longer and they will be a lot easier to clean the next time. Step 4: Short drying time - After hot water extraction, the textile floor covering is slightly damp and needs 3 to 6 hours to air-dry on its own.
