Trusted Carpet Cleaners in Harpenden

Yes - we make use of eco-friendly and harmless cleaning products by ProChem. They are completely safe not just for the material, but for your family as well. You need not send the children, pets or elderly family members away while we clean, as the products will not cause them any harm whatsoever. In fact, the specialist would prefer at least one of you to be on site at the end, ideally the person arranging the service, so they can check the service on completion.

Each mattress cleaning service takes approximately 20 to 30 minutes per mattress, depending on the condition of the mattress before we begin. This may also vary based on the mattress size, as the bigger ones take longer to clean, and whether the mattress is double sided (both sides are usable). If it is, the bottom side is included into the cost, and it will be lightly refreshed and disinfected to save time with the drying. If it is not both sides usable, we will clean the top and the other sides regardless.

The most common yellow stains on mattresses are caused by sweat, which typically leaves yellow marks. You need to know that this sweat builds up over time, and takes a few months to become visible on the mattress surface. By the time you see it, it's already somewhat ingrained into the fabric. This can cause visible staining, but an unpleasant odour as well. You should regularly have your mattress deep cleaned to prevent the build-up of sweat, which can also attract dust mites, a common source of allergies. A different type of yellow stains on mattresses are urine accidents. They occur commonly when potty training your pets, or the children have just started outgrowing the nappies. The smell is far more noticeable in this case, and the stain goes in deeper than sweat would. It also contains enzymes which are hard to remove from the mattress fabric. The best way to deal with them is with steam extraction cleaning, a service which we are specialised in. In case of urine, it will be cleaned with cold water instead of hot, as hot water would cause chemical reactions that set the stain in and make it almost impossible to remove. Our specialists have many years of experience in mattress cleaning, and will leave yours fully disinfected and refreshed.

The average drying time for curtains is more or less the same as the drying time for carpets - around 1 to 3 hours, which may vary during the year. It may be longer than that in the colder periods. However, curtains may dry even faster in the warmer part of the year, due to being adjacent to windows, where sunlight and direct airflow allow for rapid drying.

It is highly advised to wait for a few hours before sitting down on your leather sofa. That has nothing to do with harm, as our products are safe for you and for the sofa itself. It's simply the matter of not getting your clothes stained by the conditioners if you sit down before they've been absorbed by the material. They will require some time to do so, which may vary based on your specific type of leather.
