What Is Not Included
We believe in being upfront about what professional carpet cleaning can and cannot achieve. The following are outside the scope of a standard clean — we'll always let you know before we begin if any of these apply to your carpets.
- Permanent dye stains or bleach damage (results cannot be guaranteed)
- Structural repairs, re-stretching, or re-fitting of carpets
- Stain protection coating (available as a chargeable add-on — ask when booking)
- Removal of mould caused by prolonged water damage or structural damp
- Furniture removal (we work around furniture; heavy items should be cleared in advance where possible)
How Our Carpet Cleaning Process Works
We follow a clear, consistent six-step process on every job. This ensures nothing is missed, the right method is used for your specific carpets, and you know exactly what's happening at every stage.
Step 1 – Free Quote & Booking
Contact us on 07700 167202 or via our contact page to describe your carpets, room sizes, and any specific concerns. We'll provide a clear, honest quote with no hidden charges.
Step 2 – Pre-Clean Assessment
On arrival, our technician inspects your carpets in person — assessing fibre type, soiling level, stain history, and any areas requiring special attention before any cleaning begins.
Step 3 – Pre-Treatment
Problem areas, heavy soiling, and stains are pre-treated with appropriate solutions to loosen dirt and break down residues ahead of the main clean.
Step 4 – Deep Extraction Clean
We apply our primary cleaning method — typically hot water extraction — using professional-grade equipment that penetrates deep into carpet fibres, lifting embedded dirt, allergens, bacteria, and odour-causing residues.
Step 5 – Spot Treatment & Finishing
Any remaining marks are addressed with targeted spot treatments. The carpet is then groomed to restore pile direction and even appearance.
Step 6 – Drying & Aftercare Guidance
We advise you on expected drying times — typically 2–6 hours depending on carpet type, thickness, and ventilation — and provide simple aftercare tips to keep your carpets cleaner for longer.
Carpet Cleaning Pricing in Birmingham
How Our Pricing Works
We don't publish fixed prices online because every job is different. Pricing is based on a straightforward assessment of your specific requirements — not a one-size-fits-all rate that may not reflect the actual work involved.
Factors That Affect the Cost
When we provide your quote, we take the following into account:
- Number of rooms and total carpet area
- Level of soiling and staining
- Carpet fibre type (e.g. wool, synthetic, berber)
- Whether pre-treatment or specialist stain removal is required
- Add-ons such as stain protection application
- Access and any logistical considerations

What to Expect – Honest Results & Limitations
Realistic Outcomes
Professional carpet cleaning significantly improves the appearance, hygiene, and smell of most carpets. The majority of customers notice a clear, visible difference after a single clean. Results are particularly strong on general soiling, pet hair, dust, allergens, and many common stains.
Understanding Limitations
We'd rather be honest with you upfront than overpromise and underdeliver. Here's what you should know before booking:
- Set stains: Some stains — particularly those that have been left untreated for a long time, or that have been scrubbed with the wrong products — may be permanent. We will always advise you honestly before and during the clean.
- Bleach or dye damage: Discolouration caused by bleach, harsh chemicals, or fading cannot be reversed by cleaning.
- Older or worn carpets: Cleaning can refresh and improve older carpets, but it cannot restore worn pile or reverse physical wear.
- Drying times: Carpets will be damp after hot water extraction. Adequate ventilation speeds drying. We recommend keeping foot traffic light until fully dry.
