Cleaning carpets in Markyate
Markyate is strung along the old Watling Street, which means a long thin village with a lot of frontage onto what used to be a main road. The older property here is deep and narrow with steep stairs - classic coaching-route housing.
Road dust is the local signature. It is fine, it is slightly greasy from traffic, and it settles into the hall carpet first. Greasy soil is the kind that water alone will not touch: it wants a degreasing pre-spray and heat, and that is exactly why a hall can look permanently dingy however much it gets vacuumed.
Behind the main street there are quieter lanes and family housing where the problems are more ordinary.

Markyate questions
The things people in Markyate ask us most often.
Why does the hall stay grubby however much I vacuum?
Because road dust is greasy as well as gritty, and a vacuum only lifts the dry loose part. The greasy element needs a degreasing pre-spray and hot water extraction.
Do you cover Markyate, Flamstead and Slip End?
Yes, along with Caddington, Kensworth, Studham and Redbourn. No travel charge.
Can you clean a deep narrow hallway right to the ends?
Yes. Hoses run from the van so length is not an issue, and we work into the corners and along the skirting rather than just down the middle.
How much notice do you usually need?
A few days is normal and less is often possible. We are in this area most weeks.
