Cleaning carpets in Dunstable
Dunstable sits right under the chalk of the Downs, and chalk behaves differently from ordinary soil on a carpet. It dries to a pale powder, so it shows worst on dark carpet rather than light, which catches people out.
It is also mildly alkaline and very fine, which means scrubbing it while wet drives it into the base of the pile and spreads a pale halo outwards from wherever you started. The right sequence is to let it dry completely, vacuum thoroughly, and then extract what is left.
Beyond that it is ordinary family work. The Downs mean walkers and dogs, and walkers and dogs mean the hall, the stairs and the room the boots come off in.

Dunstable questions
The things people in Dunstable ask us most often.
Why do pale marks show up on my dark carpet?
Chalk from the Downs, almost certainly. It dries to a light powder and is most visible on darker pile. Let it dry, vacuum it, then have it extracted rather than scrubbing it in.
Do you cover Kensworth, Caddington and Whipsnade?
Yes, along with Dunstable, Houghton Regis, Totternhoe, Sewell and Studham. All LU5 and LU6 with no travel charge.
Can you clean the carpet where the dog sleeps?
Yes, and tell us where it is when you book so we can treat it specifically. Pet oils transfer into the fibre and hold soil in place, so that patch usually needs a longer dwell time than the rest of the room.
How often should carpets be done in a walking household?
Every nine to twelve months for the hall, lounge and stairs. Walkers and dog owners genuinely are harder on carpet than an average household.
