With years of hands-on experience, industry-grade equipment and a practical, no-nonsense approach, we restore carpets to a hygienic, fresh and presentable condition for homes and businesses alike.

Expert Carpet Cleaning in Greenwich

Working day in, day out in SE10 and the wider Greenwich area, we understand the type of wear local carpets are exposed to – from busy family homes and rental properties to office footfall and retail premises. Our trained technicians use the right combination of hot water extraction, low-moisture cleaning and spot treatment to suit your carpet fibres and level of soiling.

We arrive on time, work efficiently and leave your carpets as dry as possible, so you can get back to normal quickly. All work is carried out by trained, professional, and fully insured operatives employed by Greenwich Cleaner.

Who Our Carpet Cleaning Service Is For

Homeowners

Ideal if you want to freshen up tired carpets, deal with spills or pet odours, or undertake an annual deep clean. Regular professional cleaning helps extend the life of your flooring and keeps your home healthier, especially if anyone in the property has allergies or asthma.

Renters

End of tenancy often requires carpets to be professionally cleaned. We provide itemised invoices and photos on request, making it easier to demonstrate that the work has been completed to a professional standard for your landlord or letting agent.

Landlords & Letting Agents

We work with landlords, estate agents and property managers throughout Greenwich, helping prepare properties between tenancies. Our service is designed to bring carpets back to a clean, odour-free condition as quickly as possible, helping minimise void periods.

Businesses & Offices

From small offices to larger commercial premises, we offer commercial carpet cleaning tailored around your trading hours. We can work evenings or weekends by arrangement, ensuring minimal disruption to your staff and customers while maintaining a professional appearance in your building.

Students

Student houses and halls see heavy use. We provide practical, affordable carpet cleaning before you move out so you can meet tenancy requirements and avoid unnecessary deductions from your deposit.

What Our Carpet Cleaning Service Includes

Our standard carpet cleaning visit in Greenwich typically includes:

• Initial inspection of carpet type, condition and stains
• Moving of light, easily movable furniture where safe to do so
• Thorough dry vacuuming to remove loose soil and dust
• Application of suitable pre-spray to break down soiling
• Mechanical or manual agitation where required
• Hot water extraction (steam cleaning) or low-moisture cleaning depending on the carpet
• Targeted stain treatment for common marks such as food, drinks and mud
• Deodorising to leave carpets fresher-smelling
• Grooming of the pile for a uniform finish

What Is Not Included as Standard

To keep things clear, the following are usually excluded from a standard carpet clean but can often be added or discussed in advance:

• Heavy furniture moving such as wardrobes, large bookcases or filled cabinets
• Cleaning of rugs, upholstery, curtains or mattresses (these are separate services)
• Repair of carpet damage, burns, rips or re-stretching
• Stain protection treatments (e.g. Scotchgard) unless specifically booked
• Guaranteed removal of every stain – some permanent staining may remain, though we always advise honestly
• Cleaning of hard floors, tiles or wooden flooring in the same visit unless agreed

If you are unsure whether something is covered, please mention it at enquiry stage; we are happy to clarify and tailor the service.

Our Step-by-Step Carpet Cleaning Process

1. Enquiry & Quote

You can contact Greenwich Cleaner by phone, email or our online form. We will ask for details such as the number of rooms, type of property, approximate carpet age and any particular issues like stains or pet odours. Based on this, we provide a clear, no-obligation quote. For larger properties or commercial work, we may suggest a short call to go through your requirements in more depth.

2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)

For most domestic jobs, a virtual survey via photos or video call is sufficient. For larger or more complex jobs, we can visit in person. During the survey we identify fibre types, check seam and join conditions, look for pre-existing damage and assess access and parking arrangements. This allows us to confirm the most suitable cleaning method and provide an accurate final price before any work begins.

3. Preparation

On the day, we arrive within the agreed time window, introduce ourselves and walk through the job with you. We then:

• Set up hoses, machines and protective corner guards where needed
• Move light furniture such as chairs and small tables where safe
• Protect surrounding areas to prevent tracking soil through your property
• Carry out a final pre-clean test on delicate areas and colours

Once everything is prepared, we carry out the cleaning method agreed, checking results as we go. At the end, we invite you to inspect the work before we pack away.

Transparent Carpet Cleaning Pricing

We believe in simple, transparent pricing. Our carpet cleaning in Greenwich is usually priced per room or per square metre, depending on the layout and size of the area. Factors that may affect the cost include:

• Number and size of rooms or areas
• Level of soiling and number of stains requiring specialist treatment
• Access, parking and floor level (e.g. multiple flights of stairs)
• Any additional services such as stain protection or deodorising for heavy odours

Before any work is booked, you will receive a clear price with no hidden extras. If, during the survey, we believe additional treatment is necessary, we will always explain and seek your approval first.

Why Use Professional Carpet Cleaners Instead of DIY

DIY hire machines and retail spot cleaners can help in some situations, but they often leave carpets too wet or fail to remove deeply embedded dirt. Our professional equipment has substantially more vacuum and heat, allowing us to rinse more thoroughly and extract more moisture, reducing drying times.

We also understand which chemicals are safe for different fibres such as wool, polypropylene or blended carpets, helping avoid shrinkage, colour bleed or damage. Proper, regular professional cleaning can significantly extend the life of your carpets and improve indoor air quality compared with occasional, improvised DIY attempts.

Insurance, Training and Professional Standards

Greenwich Cleaner operates with robust protections in place for your peace of mind. We hold:

• Public liability cover to protect you and your property in the unlikely event of accidental damage
• Goods in transit insurance when we transport equipment and materials to and from your property
• Trained cleaning teams who follow manufacturer guidelines and established industry methods

Our technicians receive ongoing training in stain removal, fibre identification and safe use of cleaning solutions. We work to recognised trade best practices, carry out risk assessments where required and always aim to leave your property safe, tidy and secure.

Care, Protection and Sustainability

We treat every property as if it were our own. This means:

• Using corner guards and protective sheets where necessary to avoid scuffs and drips
• Wearing overshoes in sensitive areas when requested
• Selecting cleaning agents that are effective yet responsible, with low-residue formulations
• Measuring products accurately to avoid overuse and unnecessary environmental impact
• Maintaining our machinery regularly so it runs efficiently and uses energy responsibly

We also offer advice on simple, sustainable maintenance – such as correct vacuuming and prompt attention to spills – to help you keep your carpets cleaner for longer between professional visits.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does carpet cleaning in Greenwich cost?

Pricing depends mainly on the number and size of rooms, the type of carpet and how soiled it is. As a rough guide, smaller rooms cost less than larger through-lounges or open-plan areas, and heavy staining may increase the price slightly due to extra products and time. We always provide a clear quote upfront based on the information you give us, and for larger or commercial jobs we may carry out a brief survey. There are no hidden charges and any optional extras are discussed first.

Do you offer same-day or urgent carpet cleaning?

Where our schedule allows, we do our best to accommodate same-day or short-notice bookings in Greenwich, particularly for emergencies such as spills, accidents or end-of-tenancy deadlines. Availability depends on existing appointments, but it is always worth calling to check. If we cannot attend the same day, we will offer the earliest possible slot and provide interim advice on what you can safely do yourself to minimise damage or staining until we arrive.

Are you insured while working in my property?

Yes. Greenwich Cleaner is fully insured to work in homes and commercial premises. We carry public liability cover to protect you and your property in case of accidental damage, and goods in transit insurance for our equipment while travelling to and from your address. Our team members are trained in safe working practices, and incidents are rare, but proper insurance is an important part of operating professionally. If you require copies of certificates for your records, for example as a landlord or managing agent, we are happy to provide them.

What exactly is included in a carpet cleaning visit?

A typical visit includes inspection, vacuuming, pre-spraying, agitation, hot water extraction or low-moisture cleaning, basic stain treatment and deodorising. We also move light, easily moved furniture within reason, and return it once the area has been cleaned. Heavier pieces, such as large wardrobes or full bookcases, normally remain in place for safety reasons, but we can discuss options during your enquiry. Rugs, upholstery and stain protection are available as additional services and can often be carried out at the same time if arranged in advance.

How far in advance should I book?

For the widest choice of appointment times, we recommend booking at least a week in advance, especially if you need a specific day or time. During busier periods, such as end-of-tenancy peaks or just before holidays, slots can fill quite quickly. That said, we always try to keep some flexibility for urgent or last-minute requests in Greenwich. If your dates are fixed, for example a move-out inspection or office closure, it is best to contact us as early as you can so we can plan the work around your schedule.
