Carpet cleaning with the before and after to prove it

Hot-water extraction pulls the soil back out of the pile instead of pushing it further in. We photograph the work as we go — so what you are deciding on is a picture of your own floor, not a promise about it.

How the visit goes

  1. 01Before we come

    You tell us what is on the floor

    Call, or send a photo of the worst patch. A photo is the fastest way to get a straight answer about what will lift and what will not — and if something will not come out, we would rather say so now than at the door.

  2. 02On arrival

    We test before we clean

    Fabric and rug dyes get tested somewhere nobody looks, and the fibre decides the method. This is the step that prevents the two things people actually fear: shrinkage and colour bleeding.

    Dye test before any moisture

  3. 03The work

    Extraction, then the parts a machine cannot reach

    Heated solution goes into the pile and comes straight back out with the soil. Stairs, edges and corners are worked by hand afterwards, because no machine head sits flat on a stair tread.

  4. 04Handover

    You get the room back the same day

    Carpet is normally walkable in a couple of hours. Fabric sofas take longer, and we bring air movers when a room has to be usable by a particular time.

Before

After

Nothing was added to this rug

A layer of dust across the top of the pile scatters light instead of letting it reflect off the dyed fibre, so every colour reads a shade duller and the pattern flattens. Take the dust off and people describe the colour coming back. It never went anywhere.

Smells and pet stains that keep coming back

A pet stain that returns a week after cleaning was never fully removed. The liquid went through the carpet into the padding underneath, and as the carpet dried it wicked back up and brought the stain with it. Clean the surface again and the same thing happens again.

So it gets treated as a depth problem. Where urine has soaked through, the padding is where the smell lives, and that is where the treatment goes. Same logic in a sofa, where the odour is in the foam of the cushion rather than on the fabric.

We used Carpet Cleaning Wizards to remove dog urine from a large area carpet. Jacob was timely in arrival, professional and friendly. He was efficient in taking care of the job and very pleasant while doing it. Would recommend this business.

    Bob was great. He communicated clearly what the job would entail and was honest about what stains could not be 100% removed. Was happy with the service. The carpets looked brand new again!

    Jacob was the best. We had a pet accident that he took care of. He was quickly able to clean an area rug and honestly saved the day. Great work, will call again.

    There was a big difference in the living room rugs. Extraction brought out layers of dirt. Nearly invisible stains remain. Completely happy.

Section F

Questions we get asked

How often should carpet be professionally cleaned?

Every 6–12 months for most homes. Where you land in that range depends on traffic and pets: a hallway in a house with a dog and children is at the short end, a spare bedroom nobody walks through can go a year or more.

How long before we can walk on it?

Most carpet is walkable within a couple of hours and dry the same day. Fabric sofas take 4 to 8 hours and leather is faster. If a room needs to be back in use sooner, say so when you book and we bring air movers.

Are the products safe around children and pets?

We use non-toxic, biodegradable products, safe around family and pets. Nothing we bring into a house needs the windows opened afterwards or the dog kept elsewhere for the day.

Can you get an old pet stain out?

Often, because the odour usually lives in the padding rather than the carpet and that is where it gets treated. Where urine has already changed the colour of the fibre, cleaning will not bring that colour back, and we will tell you that before you book rather than after.

Do you have a shop we can bring rugs to?

No — we come to you. Everything is cleaned in the home, including area rugs and the hardwood or tile underneath them, across all six counties we cover.

More of them — rugs, leather, water damage — on the questions page.
