Prices
Priced per room, agreed on the phone and not changed on the doorstep. A bedroom is £36, a living room £43. Rugs, sofas and mattresses can join the same visit, because the machine is already in the house.

What we get called out for
Rooms and hallways
Hot water extraction, walk-on dry in a couple of hours. Traffic lanes are the usual reason we are rung.
Stairs and landings
The hardest-worked carpet in the house, done tread by tread with a hand tool.
Rugs
Cleaned flat on a groundsheet, dyes tested first. Delicate fibres get a low-moisture clean.
Sofas and chairs
Upholstery tool at lower pressure, fabric code checked before anything gets wet.
Working in Ilford
IG1 and IG3 are built on dense grids of Victorian and Edwardian terraces running off Ilford Lane, Cranbrook Road and the High Road, most of them bay-fronted, two storeys and narrow, and a very high proportion have been converted into flats or licensed shared houses. North of the A12 the character changes to 1930s bay-fronted semis around Gants Hill, Newbury Park and Barkingside, with front drives and side access. Ilford town centre has added tall new apartment blocks around the station since the Elizabeth line opened, so the working mix runs from a scaled HMO to a twentieth-floor new-build.
A second selective licensing scheme started on 8 April 2024 and runs for five years across fifteen wards including Clementswood, Loxford, Goodmayes and Seven Kings, so landlords need documented, evidenced condition at check-out to protect their licence.
Mandatory and additional HMO licensing apply borough-wide on top of that, which means shared houses with three or four occupants also need licensing and inspection-ready communal areas.
Licensed shared houses have carpeted communal stairs, landings and hallways that are the landlord's responsibility, and these get missed unless they are quoted separately from the rooms.
The water here is hard, which makes no difference to the extraction rinse. What slows drying in these houses is closed trickle vents, so we open windows while we work.
