What Is Not Included as Standard

To keep our pricing fair and transparent, the following are not automatically included in a basic carpet clean:

Moving large or delicate furniture (pianos, large wardrobes, aquariums, delicate antiques).
Cleaning fitted upholstery, curtains or blinds, unless specifically booked.
Repairs to carpet seams, stretching, restitching or replacement of damaged sections.
Guaranteed removal of every stain – some permanent stains (bleach, heavy dye transfer, burns) cannot be reversed.

We are always clear about what can and cannot be achieved once we have assessed the carpets on site.

Our Step-by-Step Carpet Cleaning Process

1. Enquiry & Quote

You can contact Brompton Cleaners by phone, email or online form with basic details: number of rooms, approximate sizes, property type and any particular issues (pets, stains, allergies). We then provide an estimated price range and recommend the most suitable approach. For straightforward jobs, we can often confirm a fixed price immediately, subject to normal condition of the carpets.

2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite

For larger properties, commercial spaces or heavily soiled carpets, we may arrange a short virtual survey via photos or video, or an onsite visit. This allows us to check fibre type, access, parking, and any special requirements. From this, we confirm a firm quotation, explain what results you can realistically expect, and agree a convenient appointment time, including evenings or weekends where available.

3. Preparation on the Day

On arrival, our trained, uniformed team walks through the areas with you to confirm the work. We ask that smaller items and breakables are removed from the floor; we can assist with moving light furniture where safe. We protect surrounding areas as needed, mix solutions on site, pre-test sensitive fibres and then carry out the full clean. Before leaving, we invite you to inspect the work and raise any questions.

Transparent, Fair Pricing

We believe in straightforward pricing with no hidden extras. Our carpet cleaning prices are typically based on:

Number and size of rooms or areas.
Level of soiling and staining.
Access, parking and location within London.
Any add-on services requested (stain protection, upholstery, rugs).

For most standard homes, we can give a clear price per room or per property in advance. Heavily soiled or commercial carpets may be priced by square metre. All quotes are obligation-free, and we confirm costs before starting any work.

Why Choose Professional Carpet Cleaning Instead of DIY

While supermarket machines may seem economical, they often leave too much moisture and detergent in the carpet, which can attract more dirt and even cause odours or shrinkage. As professional carpet cleaners, we use powerful extraction equipment that removes far more soil and leaves carpets only slightly damp. We select cleaning solutions suited to your specific fibres, monitor drying times and protect surrounding surfaces. This helps to:

Reduce the risk of damage, shrinkage or colour bleed.
Remove deep-down grit that wears fibres prematurely.
Improve indoor air quality by extracting dust and allergens.
Achieve a more even, long-lasting result.

Insurance and Professional Standards

Brompton Cleaners operates to high professional standards, giving you peace of mind on every visit:

Comprehensive public liability cover to protect your property while we work.
Goods in transit insurance for any items we transport, such as rugs taken off-site for specialist cleaning.
Trained, vetted and experienced cleaning teams following established cleaning methods and safety procedures.
Use of COSHH-compliant products, stored and applied responsibly.

We treat every property with care, operating respectfully in homes and workplaces and maintaining clear communication from booking to sign-off.

Care, Protection and Sustainability

We aim to balance effective cleaning with responsible practice:

Using modern equipment that reduces water usage where appropriate.
Selecting eco-conscious products wherever these meet our performance standards.
Carefully pre-testing solutions on sensitive fibres and dyes.
Using protective corner guards and dust sheets where needed.
Advising on ventilation and aftercare to maximise the life of your carpets and prolong cleaning intervals.

Our goal is to restore your carpets while minimising disruption, environmental impact and long-term replacement costs.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does professional carpet cleaning cost?

Costs depend on the size of the area, level of soiling and any additional treatments you choose. Small flats with standard soiling are usually charged on a per-room basis, while larger homes and commercial premises may be priced per square metre. We provide clear, itemised quotes before any work starts so you know exactly what you are paying for. There are no hidden charges for standard treatments, and we will always discuss additional costs, such as stain protection, in advance.

Can you provide same-day or urgent carpet cleaning in London?

Where our schedule allows, we do offer same-day or short-notice appointments, particularly for urgent spillages, end-of-tenancy deadlines or accidents in high-traffic areas. Availability will depend on your location in London, access and the size of the job. If we cannot attend the same day, we will offer the earliest possible slot and provide guidance over the phone on how to minimise damage until we arrive. It is always best to call us as soon as possible after a spill or incident.

Are you insured if something goes wrong?

Yes. Brompton Cleaners is fully insured for your protection. We carry public liability insurance to cover accidental damage while working in your property, and goods in transit insurance for any rugs or items we transport for off-site treatment. Our technicians are trained to assess risks, test products and work carefully to avoid issues, but in the unlikely event that something does go wrong, you have the reassurance of formal cover and a clear complaints and resolution process.

What exactly is included in a carpet cleaning service?

Our standard service includes inspection, commercial vacuuming, pre-treatment of general soiling, spot treatment of many common stains, full machine cleaning using hot water extraction or low-moisture methods, and a neutralising rinse. Where booked, we also include deodorising or antibacterial treatments. We will move light furniture where safe, work around larger items and return the room to a tidy condition. Services such as stain protection, rug or upholstery cleaning are available as add-ons and will be clearly listed on your quotation.

How far in advance should I book?

For the best choice of times, especially at weekends or month-end when tenancies change, we recommend booking your carpet cleaning one to two weeks in advance. However, we understand that situations such as spills, inspections or moves can arise at short notice, so we always keep some flexibility in our diary. If you have a fixed deadline from an agent or inventory clerk, it is helpful to let us know as early as possible so we can align our visit with your schedule.

How long will my carpets take to dry?

Drying times vary depending on fibre type, thickness, ventilation and weather. In most typical London homes, carpets cleaned with hot water extraction are touch-dry within three to six hours, often sooner with good airflow. Low-moisture methods can be faster. We will advise you on how to speed up drying, such as opening windows, using fans and avoiding heavy furniture on very damp areas. You can usually walk on carpets carefully soon after cleaning, ideally in clean socks or shoe covers.
