Pricing guide
Price variation is driven by the basic call‑out and labour time plus whether you need a standard or deep treatment. Standard work typically uses one hot‑water extraction pass with light spot treatment, while deep regimes add pre‑treatment, repeat extraction, specialist chemistry and possibly drying equipment or extra technician time. Items excluded from standard profiles — such as enzyme odour remediation, underlay replacement or off‑site rug work — can increase the overall scope required.
Carpet soil level and odour presence
Heavily soiled carpets or persistent odours typically require deeper regimes, extra pre‑treatment and repeat extraction passes.
Standard versus deep treatment
A standard clean usually involves one hot‑water extraction pass and light spot treatment, while deep cleaning adds specialist chemistry and extra passes.
Area size and number of rooms
Larger or multiple rooms increase the labour hours and materials required, extending the job duration.
Need for drying equipment or time
Deep cleaning or wetter processes may need drying aids and additional drying time, which affects how long technicians work on site.
Underlay condition and off‑site rugs
Contaminated underlay or rugs needing off‑site transport are generally outside the standard service and can add extra work or scope.
