What affects your price

🧶

Carpet fibre

Wool and silk add a 15–25% premium over synthetic — they need lower-moisture methods and pH-neutral products.

🍷

Soiling & stains

Pet accidents or heavy staining add roughly £15–£40 per room for targeted treatment.

🛋️

Furniture moving

Included as standard with us — some competitors charge extra, so always ask what’s included.

📝

Minimum call-out

Very small jobs may carry a minimum charge, typically £45–£85 across the North West.

DIY machine rental vs professional cleaning

Renting a machine typically costs £25–£40 for 24–48 hours, plus detergent. It’s cheaper up front, but rental machines have weaker motors than professional hot water extraction equipment, often leaving more moisture and detergent residue behind — which can attract dirt back into the carpet faster. Professional cleaning costs more per visit but reaches deeper into the pile and dries cleaner.

Frequently asked questions

Is there a minimum charge for carpet cleaning?

Yes, most professional cleaners including us apply a minimum call-out charge on very small jobs to cover travel and equipment setup — typically £45–£85 depending on location within Greater Manchester.

Do you charge extra to move furniture?

No — moving furniture to clean underneath it is included as standard in our pricing, not charged as an add-on.

Why do some quotes vary so much for the same job?

Low headline prices online often exclude furniture moving, stain treatment, or apply only to the smallest possible room. Ask what’s included before comparing two quotes directly.

Does wool carpet cost more to clean?

Yes, typically 15–25% more than synthetic carpet, because wool needs lower-moisture cleaning methods and pH-neutral products to avoid damaging the fibres.
