Cleaning carpets in Shinfield
Shinfield has changed more in ten years than most places change in fifty, with a large amount of new housing built out around the old village centre. A good deal of the carpet we see here is only two or three years old, and the question we get asked more than any other is whether there is any point cleaning something that has barely been walked on yet.
It is worth it, and rather earlier than most people assume. Cleaning a new carpet is not about stains at all - it is about getting the grit out before it has had the time to do anything. Grit settles at the base of the pile and cuts the fibre with every footstep, so a first clean at eighteen months to two years is what makes a mid-range carpet reach ten years rather than six.
A new house makes the job straightforward at our end too. Rooms are square, stairs are straight, and there is normally somewhere sensible to put the van. Hall, stairs and landing at £75 with the lounge added at £40 is the visit most people here book, and it takes a couple of hours from knocking on the door to loading the machine back up.

Shinfield questions
The things people in Shinfield ask us most often.
Is there any point cleaning a carpet only two years old?
Yes, and that is about the right time for the first one. It is not about stains - it is about removing grit before it has cut the fibre. Early cleaning is how a mid-range carpet reaches ten years instead of six.
Do you cover the new developments around Shinfield?
We do, along with the old village, Three Mile Cross, Spencers Wood, Grazeley, Ryeish Green and Swallowfield. No travel charge and no call-out fee on any of it.
What is the usual visit for a new house?
Hall, stairs and landing at £75, with the lounge added at £40 if it is going in at the same time. That is a couple of hours and covers everything with real traffic on it.
Will cleaning harm a brand new carpet?
No. The risk with any carpet is over-wetting and detergent left behind in the pile, and both are avoidable. We keep moisture controlled, rinse rather than leave product in, and make extra dry passes before packing up.
