Cleaning carpets in Gateshead
Gateshead climbs away from the river in a series of steep banks, and the housing goes up with it - Victorian terraces and Tyneside flats through Bensham and Felling, bigger older property at Low Fell, and post-war estates up at Wrekenton. Steep streets mean grit gets carried indoors on the soles of shoes rather than shaken off at the door.
That grit is why the middle of a room goes grey before the edges do. People walk the same line from the door to the sofa, and every footstep on that line grinds fine soil into the base of the pile. The colour has not gone anywhere. The light is simply no longer reflecting off a smooth fibre, because the fibre is no longer smooth.
Traffic lanes respond better to proper extraction than almost anything else we clean. Pre-spray, dwell time, heat and suction, worked along the lane rather than across it. What you get back is the original colour of the carpet, which quite often surprises the person who has been living with it. It is also why we ask you to point out where people actually walk, rather than guessing it from the doorway.

Gateshead questions
The things people in Gateshead ask us most often.
Why is the middle of my lounge darker than the rest?
That is a traffic lane. Fine grit gets ground into the base of the pile along the route everybody walks, which dulls the fibre rather than staining it. Vacuuming will not reach it. Hot water extraction lifts it out and the colour comes back.
Do you come out across the whole of Gateshead?
Yes - NE8, NE9 and NE10, so Bensham, Low Fell, Felling, Heworth, Pelaw, Dunston and Wrekenton, along with Whickham, Winlaton and Birtley. No travel charge on any of them, and we are in this part of Tyneside most weeks of the year.
Can you get the van close on a steep terraced street?
Usually within a few doors, which is all we need. The hoses do the travelling. If the bank is tight or the parking is residents only, mention it when you book so we know what we are coming to.
What does a lounge, hall and stairs come to?
£95 for the three. It is the most common booking we take and it covers the part of the house that visitors actually see, from the front door through to the settee.
