Cleaning carpets in Kettering
Kettering has the same shoe-trade history as its neighbours and a similar spread of housing: red brick terraces near the centre, post-war semis wrapped around them and newer family housing out towards Barton Seagrave and Burton Latimer. Plenty of three-piece suites in all of it, and suites are where most people underestimate how much cleaning they actually need.
A sofa takes body oils, hair product, food and the daily grinding of fabric against fabric. The oils are the real problem, because they are invisible until they darken the arms and the headrests, and by that point the fabric has been working abrasive soil into itself for years. A seat cushion is handled more than any carpet in the house.
We price upholstery by the piece. A dining chair seat is £10, seat and back £15, an armchair £35, a two-seater £50, a three-seater £80 and a four-seater £105. Fabric gets checked first for fibre and colourfastness in a hidden spot - some loose covers and a few linens are not safe to wet clean, and we will say so before anything starts.

Kettering questions
The things people in Kettering ask us most often.
How much to clean a three-seater and two armchairs?
£150 at our prices - £80 for the three-seater and £35 for each chair. Add a footstool at £25 if you have one. We quote for the whole suite before any water goes anywhere near it.
Are all sofa fabrics safe to clean with water?
Most are. Some viscose blends, a few linens and certain loose covers shrink or mark, so we test fibre and colourfastness somewhere hidden first. If a piece is not suitable we say so rather than take the risk.
Why are the arms of our sofa darker than the rest of it?
Body oils off hands and forearms. They build up invisibly, then go dark and start holding soil in place. Oil needs a degreasing pre-spray and heat - water on its own will not shift it at all.
Which Kettering areas and villages are you in?
NN15 and NN16 and the villages round them - Barton Seagrave, Burton Latimer, Broughton, Cranford, Geddington, Weekley, Warkton, Rothwell, Desborough and Great Oakley. No travel charge, and the £50 minimum is the same everywhere.
