Who Our Carpet Cleaning Service Is For

Homeowners

For homeowners, professional carpet cleaning helps protect your investment, extend the life of your flooring and improve indoor air quality. We work carefully around furniture, pets and children, using safe products and clear drying-time guidance.

Renters and Students

End of tenancy or moving out? Clean carpets are usually a condition of tenancy agreements. We provide professional receipts and reports for agents or landlords, helping you meet your obligations and reduce the risk of deposit deductions.

Landlords and Letting Agents

We support landlords with reliable, quick-turnaround carpet cleans between tenancies. Our focus is on restoring carpets to a clean, presentable condition ready for viewings, while being honest about any damage that cleaning alone cannot resolve.

Businesses

For offices, clinics, shops and hospitality venues, we offer commercial carpet cleaning with out-of-hours availability where possible. We understand the need to minimise downtime and slip risks, so we plan drying times and access carefully.

Our Step-by-Step Carpet Cleaning Process

1. Enquiry & Quote

You can contact us by phone, email or our online form. We will ask a few simple questions: type of property, approximate room sizes or number of areas, carpet condition and access details. Based on this, we provide a clear, no-obligation estimate. For larger or more complex jobs, we may suggest a visit or virtual survey before confirming a fixed price.

2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)

Before cleaning, we assess fibre type, backing, existing stains and any wear or damage. This can be done through photographs and video for straightforward jobs, or an onsite survey for commercial sites and larger homes. We identify potential risks (such as shrinkage on certain woven carpets) and agree the most suitable cleaning method with you.

3. Preparation

On the day, we protect access routes as needed and move light, easily movable items where safe to do so. We carry out thorough dry vacuuming, pre-treat stains and apply the chosen cleaning process. Finally, we groom the carpet pile and advise on ventilation and drying. You will be walked through the results so any remaining marks or permanent damage can be explained clearly.

Transparent Carpet Cleaning Pricing

We price carpet cleaning by room, area or square metre, depending on the property. The main factors affecting cost are:

• Number and size of rooms
• Carpet type (standard synthetic vs delicate fibres)
• Level of soiling and staining
• Access (upper floors without lifts, restricted parking, etc.)
• Additional services such as stain protection or rug cleaning

Before you book, you will receive a clear breakdown of what is included, with no hidden extras. If we anticipate additional work once on site, we will always discuss this and agree any changes before proceeding.

Why Choose Professional Carpet Cleaning Over DIY

Shop-hire machines can be useful for light refreshes, but they are limited. As professionals, we use powerful extraction equipment and advanced solutions that clean more deeply and rinse more thoroughly, reducing the risk of residue and over-wetting. This helps prevent problems like rapid re-soiling, odours or shrinkage.

We are trained to identify different fibres and construction types and to select appropriate methods. This reduces the risk of damage and improves the chances of successful stain removal. You also save time, avoid heavy lifting of hire machines and have someone on hand to offer realistic, experienced advice.

Insurance and Professional Standards

Streatham Cleaners operates with robust cover and procedures to protect you and your property:

• Public liability insurance to protect against accidental damage or incidents while we are working on site.
• Goods in transit insurance for any carpets or rugs that may occasionally need to be transported for off-site treatment.
• Trained teams who follow industry-recognised methods, safety procedures and manufacturer guidance.

We maintain our equipment regularly, use products from reputable suppliers and keep up to date with best practice, fibre care recommendations and health and safety requirements.

Care, Protection and Sustainability

We treat each property with care, using corner protectors and floor coverings where required and working neatly to minimise disruption. Many of our solutions are low-VOC and chosen to balance cleaning performance with environmental impact. We avoid over-use of chemicals, favouring correct technique and thorough rinsing.

By extending the life of existing carpets, professional cleaning can also help reduce waste and the environmental impact associated with frequent replacement. Where we believe a carpet is beyond cleaning, we will say so honestly so you can make an informed decision.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does carpet cleaning in Streatham cost?

Costs depend mainly on the number and size of rooms, carpet type and how heavily soiled the areas are. As a guide, we typically price per room or by area, with minimum call-out charges to cover travel and setup. Additional treatments such as stain protection, rug cleaning or heavy stain work may be extra, but we always confirm these before starting. Once we know your layout and requirements, we provide a clear, written estimate so you can decide before committing.

Can you offer same-day or urgent carpet cleaning?

Same-day or next-day appointments are sometimes possible, particularly on weekdays, but they do depend on our schedule and the size of the job. If you have an urgent spill, accident or need to meet a tenancy deadline, contact us as early as you can and explain the situation. We will advise honestly on availability, drying times and what can realistically be achieved in the time frame, and we will prioritise time-sensitive bookings where our diary allows.

Are you insured while working in my property?

Yes. We hold comprehensive public liability insurance to cover accidental damage or injury while we are working, and goods in transit insurance where carpets or rugs are taken off site for specialist treatment. Our technicians are trained to minimise risk and follow safe working practices at all times. Full details of our cover can be provided on request, and if you are a landlord or managing agent we are happy to share documentation for your records before work begins.

What is included in a standard carpet clean?

A standard visit covers inspection, high-filtration vacuuming, appropriate pre-treatments for marks and traffic lanes, and either hot water extraction or low-moisture cleaning, depending on the carpet. We then neutralise and groom the fibres, and can lightly move small items where safe to do so. Deodorising is usually included. Larger furniture moves, specialist stain removal, stain protection and separate rug cleaning are available as optional extras, which we will price and confirm clearly before you decide to go ahead.

How far in advance should I book?

For the best choice of dates and times, especially in busier seasons such as spring and late summer, booking one to two weeks in advance is sensible. However, we do keep some flexibility for shorter-notice and urgent jobs, particularly smaller residential visits. If you have a fixed date, such as a move-out or office closure, let us know as early as possible so we can align our schedule and ensure we have the right team and equipment allocated for your job.
