About our carpet cleaning

At A1 we use the industry's most powerful portable extractors that money can buy. In the summer months depending on the fibre type we can get most carpets dry in less than an hour - there isn't a single competitor who can do that anywhere near our price point. Our proven process includes a pre-inspection with the customer to identify any problem areas/ stains, pre treatment of the entire carpet, and steam extraction at over 120 degrees Celsius and where applicable turbo speed drying.

About our upholstery cleaning

Our upholstery cleaning utilises the same great machine as the carpet cleaning and has all the same benefits including the fastest drying times in the area and a superior clean over competitors. We use patented low moisture upholstery cleaning equipment which for the small 30cm tool is worth more than many local companies whole setup. Our cleaning process is a natural deodoriser but we can add premium deodorisers at the customers request.

Tile, Grout & Vinyl

At A1 we are proud to be able to offer this amazing service. For tile & Grout cleaning we really focus on getting the flooring looking like new. Extra emphasis on the grout lines and ensuring the highest level of clean. We are qualified professionals in LVT cleaning, amtico cleaning, karndean cleaning and non-slip flooring cleaning. We use a range of rotary scrubbers, contra rotating brushes, grout tools and tile blaster wands to leave you with a bone dry, new looking floor.

  • We do not remove large items of furniture. For example but not limited to (Beds, Wardrobes, Sofas, Dining tables, TV cabinets, bookcases etc) If you wish furniture to be cleaned underneath it is the owner/tenants responsibility to remove all items required before we start and place these items into an area that is not due to be cleaned. We will happily remove small items of furniture, side tables, small bedside cabinets, coffee tables etc.
  • Stain removal is not guaranteed, we endeavor to remove all staining with a standard clean however some advance stains may require advanced stain treatment techniques at a further cost at the clients say-so. We will never add more money to a job without your approval and we will never ever promise to remove any stains.

  • We need to be able to park ideally directly outside the property, with a maximum parking distance of 150ft away. If we do not have access to our van close by this may lead to your slot being cancelled upon arrival.
  • Commercial cleaning is calculated by the square metre. Square meterage is calculated using state-of-the-art precision laser measuring equipment. Price will depend on soiling level, flooring type, access, and the time you require the works to be completed
  • Tile cleaning is charged by the square meter. this price does not include sealing. The square footage of the room willl be calculated using a laser measure device & will be priced edge to edge of tile including any islands in the room that are untiled as these actually create more work for the operative.
  • Commercial cleaning is generally cleaned out of hours/ out of season to limit footfall on damp areas.
  • Carpets repairs start at £80.00 this is for a repair around the size of a £2.00 coin.
  • Carpet repairs are conducted at the owner/ tenants risk, any failure to notify your landlord or letting agent will be your responsibility alone, we will have you sign a legally binding waiver before continuing.
  • Carpet repair patches may take some time to gradually become totally invisible, this can depend on a number of factors including but not limited to; age of the original carpet, age of the donor insert, differences in batch numbers etc. Remember you are often placing a brand new patch of carpet into an area which may have years worth of wear and tear.
  • Fine fabric cleaning prices differ in price to regular upholstery/fabric for example Wool, Sisal, Velour, Velvet, Crushed velvet, Viscose etc this will be explained in the pre-inspection.
  • If the item you describe to us differs in size when we visit then we will correct the price upon inspection. For example, you book in for a 2 seater sofa when it is in fact a 3 seater. Or if you book in a non-fine fabric job that turns out to be fine fabric. (Labels are usually under the seating pads).
  • If you cancel your appointment with less than 24 hours notice you will receive an additional surcharge of 25% onto your next booking. Your booking WILL NOT be processed until payment is made in full. For example if you had booked two areas at £105.00 and cancelled with less than 24 hours notice to rebook the same rooms the price will now be £131.25 and this amount would have to have cleared before we process your booking. This is in any circumstance (Covid-19, Sickness etc)

  • If the areas are extremely soiled please make this clear when pre-booking so we can allow more time for your booking slot to gain the desired result.
  • We can clean in flats and apartments. A lift is favourable but if you have stairs we charge an additional 30% PER VISIT. This is because of the extra time and care we have to take getting lots of heavy equipment into your property opposed to a ground floor property.
