My prices depend on the size of the area, the fabric type, and how soiled it is. I give clear quotes upfront, with no hidden extras. If you share room sizes or photos, I can usually give an accurate price before I visit.

Do you offer eco friendly carpet and upholstery cleaning products?

Yes. I use professional solutions that are low in residue and chosen to be safer for your home and the environment. Where possible I choose products with fewer harsh ingredients, and I always rinse thoroughly to leave your carpets fresh and clean.

What are the benefits of using a professional like 3 Counties instead of cleaning carpets yourself?

I use stronger, purpose made equipment that removes more dirt, bacteria, and moisture than DIY machines, meaning much faster drying times. My cleaning solutions are chosen for your specific carpet or upholstery. You save time and effort and get a deeper, longer lasting clean.

Can you offer same day carpet and upholstery cleaning appointments?

If I have space in my diary I will always try. Same day appointments depend on my existing bookings and your location. The best way is to call or message me and I will let you know what I can do.

Are your cleaning products safe for children and pets?

Yes. I use products from professional suppliers that are safe when used as directed. I rinse out residues and your carpets are left clean and fresh. I always advise that children and pets stay off the cleaned areas until they are dry.

How do you deal with tough stains and heavy traffic areas?

I pre treat spots and heavy traffic lanes with targeted solutions before cleaning. I then use hot water extraction or low moisture cleaning methods, depending on the fibre type. Some stains, such as certain dyes or bleached areas, cannot always be fully removed. I always give honest advice about what is realistic.

Do you clean sofas and other upholstery as well as carpets?

Yes. I clean fabric sofas, armchairs, dining chairs, and some rugs. I always test the fabric first and choose the safest cleaning method for your upholstery.

Do you offer any guarantee on your cleaning results?

Yes. I want you to be happy with the result. While revisits have been rare for me, I always tell my customers if there are any limitations before I start. If there is something you are not happy with, contact me and I will discuss what can be done.

Can your cleaning help with allergies and asthma?

Professional cleaning removes dust, pollen, pet dander, and other particles trapped in carpets and upholstery. This can help reduce common allergens in your home, but I always recommend following your doctor’s advice for managing allergies or asthma.

Do you have special offers or package deals on carpet and upholstery cleaning?

I sometimes run offers for multiple rooms or combined carpet and upholstery bookings. The best way to find out what is available is to contact me with your requirements and I will give you my best price.

Can you remove pet odours and accidents from carpets and sofas?

I treat pet urine, odours, and accidents with specialist products designed to neutralise smells and break down residues. The success can depend on how long the issue has been there and how deep it has gone into the backing or underlay, but I always do as much as possible to improve the problem and will explain what you can expect.

How long does it take for carpets and upholstery to dry after cleaning?

Most carpets are touch dry within a few hours, depending on the fibre type, weather, and ventilation. Upholstery can take a little longer. I always aim to leave your carpets and sofas as dry as possible, and I can advise you on how to speed up drying with heating and airflow.

Will carpet cleaning shrink or damage my carpets?

Proper professional cleaning should not shrink or damage carpets. I inspect and test fibres before I start, and I use the correct methods and solutions for each type. Some older or poorly fitted carpets can be at higher risk, and if I spot this, I will discuss it with you first.

Can you move furniture before cleaning, or do I need to do it?

I can move some lighter items such as sofas, chairs, and small tables where safe to do so. I ask that you move smaller items, breakables, and valuable objects before I arrive. Very heavy or delicate furniture is best left in place, and I can clean around or under as agreed with you.

How should I prepare my home before you arrive to clean?

Please vacuum the areas if you can, remove small items and clutter from the floors, and move breakables to a safe place. This helps me work more efficiently and keeps your belongings safe.

Do you offer out of hours or weekend appointments?

My standard hours include Saturdays in the morning. If you need early, late, or specific times, contact me and I will see what is possible around my other bookings.

Can you clean carpets and upholstery in rental properties and student lets?

Yes. I regularly clean in rental homes and student properties for tenants, landlords, and agents. I can provide invoices and written confirmation of work done, which can help with end of tenancy requirements.

Do you provide commercial carpet and upholstery cleaning services?

Yes. I offer cleaning for offices, small commercial premises, and similar spaces, subject to size and access. Contact me with details of your property and I can advise on what I can do and how long it is likely to take.

How often should I have my carpets and sofas professionally cleaned?

For most homes I recommend every 12 to 18 months. Busy households, homes with pets or children, or high traffic areas may benefit from more frequent cleaning. If you are unsure, ask me and I can suggest a schedule based on your home.
