Carpet Cleaning in Hitchin
Merlin's Carpet Cleaning covers Hitchin and the villages around it — market-town period houses, Victorian terraces and the estates out towards Walsworth. We are family run with over ten years behind us, our prices are the ones on the list with nothing added afterwards, and every quote is free.
Cleaning carpets in Hitchin
Hitchin has one of the better-preserved market towns in the county and a housing stock to match - timber-framed and Georgian around the centre, long Victorian terraces running out from it, and post-war estates at Walsworth, Westmill and Purwell beyond that.
The terraces are our bread and butter here. Narrow hall, steep stairs, through-lounge at the back, and almost always the same pattern of wear: dark in the first three metres, dark on the stair nosings, and a lounge that is fine apart from one specific incident.
A through-lounge is two rooms of floor and we quote it as such up front rather than arriving, looking at it and revising the price.

Hitchin questions
The things people in Hitchin ask us most often.
How do you price a Victorian through-lounge?
Individually, because it is effectively two rooms - usually £65 to £75 rather than the standard £40 lounge price. You will know that figure before we arrive, not after.
Do you cover Walsworth, Westmill and Purwell?
Yes, all of SG4 and SG5, plus Ickleford, Gosmore, Preston and St Ippolyts. No travel charge.
Can you clean carpet on a steep Victorian staircase?
Routinely. Stairs are hand work with a small tool, tread by tread, including the risers and nosings where soil actually collects. A steep flight takes a little longer, that is all.
Is there parking access needed for the van?
Somewhere within a reasonable hose run. On the terraced streets that sometimes means a few doors down, which is fine - just let us know when you book.
