What We Can (and Can’t) Remove

Dry Carpet Cleaning – FAQs
Are carpets really dry immediately?
Our low moisture method is designed so carpets are typically ready to use immediately. In some cases (heavy soiling, thick pile, cool rooms), a short settling time may be beneficial — but you won’t be left with soaked carpets.
Is dry carpet cleaning better than steam cleaning?
It depends. Hot water extraction (steam cleaning) can be a great method in the right hands, but it can involve long drying times and risks over-wetting if done poorly. Low moisture cleaning is ideal when you need fast use, reduced odour and minimal disruption.
Do you remove pet stains and odours?
We can treat many pet-related stains and odours, but results depend on how deep the contamination has travelled (underlay/subfloor). We’ll advise the best option after assessment.
Will you move furniture?
Yes — we move furniture as we clean where safe to do so. We’ll discuss any heavier items in advance.
Do you offer stain protection?
Yes. Stain protection can help slow down re-soiling and make future spill clean-up easier. We’ll advise whether it’s worthwhile for your carpet type and household.
How often should carpets be professionally cleaned?
Most homes benefit from a professional clean every 6–12 months depending on traffic, pets and lifestyle. High traffic areas may need more frequent maintenance.
How should I prepare for carpet cleaning?
Preparation is simple. Please pick up small items from the floor (toys, shoes, cables) and let us know about any problem areas like pet accidents or heavy staining. If possible, clear access to the rooms being cleaned. We’ll move furniture where safe to do so.
How long does carpet cleaning take?
Time depends on the number of rooms, size and level of soiling. As a guide, most homes take a few hours. We’ll give you a realistic time estimate once we know what needs cleaning.
Is this suitable for rented properties and end-of-tenancy situations?
Yes. Low moisture carpet cleaning is ideal for rented properties because carpets are ready to use quickly, helping with tight turnaround times. We can focus on high-traffic areas and targeted stain treatment where appropriate.
