Cleaning carpets in Chester-le-Street

Chester-le-Street sits on the main line with Newcastle one way and Durham the other, and a lot of the households we clean for here leave early and get back late. That matters more for a carpet than people realise, because it concentrates all the wear into a short window twice a day and into one narrow route through the house.

Commuter wear is predictable. The mat inside the front door, the first two metres of hall, the bottom three stairs where the turn is, and whichever chair gets sat in first. Those are the areas that age the whole house, and they are also the cheapest areas to keep on top of because they are small.

Which leads to the one piece of advice we give most often around here: book the hall, stairs and landing on a shorter cycle than the bedrooms. At £75 for the three it is far better value than waiting two years and asking us to rescue the lot at once. Rooms that only get used in the evening can wait, and that is money kept in your pocket rather than ours.

✦ Good to know

Chester-le-Street questions

The things people in Chester-le-Street ask us most often.

Can you work around someone who is out at work all day?

Yes. Most of our bookings here are mid-morning or early afternoon on a weekday. A hall, stairs and landing takes about an hour and a half, so it is finished and packed away long before the evening.

Is Chester-le-Street and the villages round about all one area to you?

It is - Pelton, Pelton Fell, Waldridge, Ouston, Great and Little Lumley, Bournmoor, Edmondsley, Grange Villa and Birtley are all in DH2 and DH3 and all charged the same, with nothing added for travel.

Why do the bottom few stairs always look worse?

Because that is where people change direction. Turning a foot grinds grit sideways into the pile instead of just pressing it down, so those treads take roughly double the punishment of the ones higher up.

How often is sensible for a hall and stairs?

Every nine to twelve months in a household that is in and out daily. Bedrooms can go considerably longer. Cleaning the busy areas more often and the quiet ones less is how you spend the least over the life of a carpet.
