A Family Team London Trusts With Its Carpets
Best Local Carpet Cleaners is run by Jordan and Karen, a husband-and-wife team. Jordan has been cleaning carpets since 2007 and trained with TACCA (The Approved Carpet Cleaning Alliance); Karen runs the office and is usually the friendly voice you'll get when you ring to book. They started the business together in 2015 and have been working across London — and out into Essex, Kent, Hertfordshire and Surrey — ever since.
We're not a franchise or a call centre. We take real pride in the work and go the extra mile for even the fussiest perfectionists. Prices are flexible, there's no VAT added on top, and as Karen says, it's nice to meet a friendly face and have a warm chat while we're at it.

Every job follows the same careful routine — here's exactly what happens when we turn up at your door.
- We look it over first. Before anything gets wet, we check the carpet or fabric type and go over the problem areas with you — the wine stain by the sofa, the muddy patch by the back door, wherever the dog sleeps. No two jobs are the same.
- Vacuum and pre-spray. A thorough vacuum lifts the dry grit, then we work in a pre-spray to loosen everything the hoover can't shift.
- Hot water extraction. This is the proper deep clean. A solution of hot water and detergent is pushed deep into the pile through a high-pressure nozzle and pulled straight back out. Our Mytee Speedster machine extracts around 95% of the liquid, so carpets come up clean and dry quickly rather than soaked.
- Stains and finishing. Stubborn marks get treated separately with the right product for the job. We groom the pile so it dries evenly, and add a deodoriser if you'd like one.
- You're walking on it the same day. Carpets are usually just damp to the touch afterwards and fully dry within 2–4 hours, depending on the room and how cold the house is.
Every clean includes
- A free re-clean if you're not happy with the result
- A free deodoriser with every order
- Free stain protector on orders over £100
- Written, transparent pricing — no VAT, no hidden fees

Carpet Cleaning FAQs
Everything you need to know about our carpet and upholstery cleaning service in London.
How much does carpet cleaning cost in London?
Pricing depends on the number and size of rooms, the carpet type and the level of soiling. We offer transparent, affordable rates with regular monthly discounts — see our full price list or request a free no-obligation quote.
How long does a carpet take to dry after cleaning?
With our hot water extraction (steam) method, carpets are typically touch-dry within 2–4 hours. Drying time can vary with ventilation, room temperature and carpet thickness.
Are your cleaning products safe for children and pets?
Yes. We use eco-friendly, non-toxic solutions that are safe for children and pets while still removing deep-set dirt, allergens and bacteria.
Can you remove pet stains and odours?
Absolutely. Our specialist stain treatment tackles pet stains, wine, coffee and more, and our deodoriser neutralises odours at the source rather than masking them.
Which areas of London do you cover?
We cover all London boroughs and surrounding areas including Essex, Hertfordshire and Kent — from Barnet and Camden to Croydon, Romford and Watford. Not sure if we reach you? Get in touch and we'll confirm.
Do I need to move furniture before you arrive?
No need to clear the room completely. We move light furniture as part of the service; we simply ask that you move any fragile or valuable items beforehand.
Are you fully insured?
Yes — we are a fully trained and fully insured family-run team with over 15 years of experience, backed by a 100% satisfaction guarantee.
Can you get every stain out?
We'll always have a proper go, and most stains lift out completely. But we'll be honest with you: we can't promise 100% every time. Very old marks, bleach damage and certain dyes can be permanent whoever cleans them — we'd rather tell you straight than over-promise.
How often should I have my carpets cleaned?
For most homes, once a year keeps things fresh. If you have children, pets, or a hallway that takes a beating, every six months is more realistic. Offices and rental properties usually need it more often.
Do you add VAT or hidden charges?
No. Our pricing is transparent and there's no VAT added on top — you pay what we agree. If parking or a congestion charge applies, we'll always tell you in advance.
Do you offer stain protection?
Yes — we can apply a stain protector that helps your carpets and upholstery resist future spills, and it's free on orders over £100. Every clean also comes with a free deodoriser.

Free quotes, next-day availability and a 100% satisfaction guarantee — if you're not happy, we re-clean for free.
