Carpet Cleaning in Sunderland
Merlin's Carpet Cleaning covers Sunderland and the villages around it — single-storey Sunderland cottages, Victorian terraces and a large student rental sector. 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 Sunderland
Sunderland is a city rather than a town and the housing runs the whole range: single-storey Sunderland cottages in the older streets, long Victorian terraces through Hendon and Millfield, post-war estates at Thorney Close and Farringdon, and newer family housing out at Doxford Park. We are in most of it most weeks. The rental mix near the two university campuses is a world of its own.
Student changeovers run to a fixed date and a fixed standard. The carpet has to come back to whatever the inventory recorded, and the landlord or agent usually wants a dated receipt to put with it. We work to the changeover date rather than our own diary, and we are straight about what will come out and what will not - a cigarette burn is a burn, and no amount of hot water changes it.
Owner-occupied work here is mostly the route through the house. A Victorian terrace hall is narrow, dark and takes every pair of boots that comes through the front door, and the stairs behind it get the same traffic in a quarter of the width. Hall, stairs and landing is £75 and it is the job that makes the most visible difference to a house of that age.

Sunderland questions
The things people in Sunderland ask us most often.
How much of Sunderland do you actually cover?
SR1, SR2 and SR3 as standard, which takes in Hendon, Millfield, Pallion, Roker, Fulwell, Grangetown, Ryhope, Silksworth, Doxford Park and Thorney Close. There is no travel charge anywhere in the city.
Can you do a student house between tenancies?
Yes, and it is a good part of what we do here. Give us the date the keys change hands and we work to it. We can invoice the landlord or agent directly and leave a dated receipt for the inventory.
Our hall is very narrow - is that a problem?
No. The wand is slim and the hoses come in from the van, so a terrace hall is straightforward. We work into the corners and along the skirting rather than just down the middle, which is where most of the soil actually sits.
Is it worth cleaning a carpet in a single-storey cottage with no stairs?
Certainly. The minimum charge is £50, so most people put two rooms together - a lounge at £40 and a bedroom at £30 comes to £70 and covers the whole front of the house.
