Cleaning carpets in Saltburn-by-the-Sea
Saltburn was laid out as a Victorian seaside town from the 1860s by Henry Pease, and the planned streets above the cliff still have the housing that went with that - tall, narrow, three storeys, with a staircase running the full height of the building. Houses of that shape have far more stair carpet in them than floor carpet.
They also tend to have wool in them, either original or chosen to suit the period, and wool wants respect. It is absorbent, so it takes up more water than a synthetic and has to be dried properly. It is alkali-sensitive, so a strong cleaner will dull the fibre and can move the dye. And it felts if it is over-agitated.
In practice that means moderate moisture, a wool-safe pH, careful agitation and extra dry passes, with the stairs done by hand tread by tread up all three flights. We will check the fibre and test the dye in a hidden corner before anything wet goes on it, as a matter of course rather than on request.

Saltburn-by-the-Sea questions
The things people in Saltburn-by-the-Sea ask us most often.
Is it safe to wet clean a wool carpet?
Yes, with the right method. Wool needs controlled moisture, a wool-safe pH and thorough drying. What damages it is strong alkaline cleaner, too much water and over-agitation, which is why we test the dye first.
How much would three flights of stairs come to?
Stairs are £35 a flight, so three flights is £105, and a landing is £20 each if you want those as well. We will confirm the figure when we see the layout and before we start.
Can a wool carpet shrink when it is cleaned?
Not when moisture is kept under control and the carpet is dried properly. Shrinkage comes from soaking a wool pile and leaving it damp. We make extra dry passes on wool for exactly that reason.
Do you come to Saltburn and the villages inland from it?
Yes - Marske, New Marske, Skelton, Brotton, Upleatham, Carlin How, Loftus, Boosbeck, Dunsdale and Charltons. All on the same price list with nothing added for the distance, and the £50 minimum charge is the same wherever you are in TS12.
