Time on Site


Most carpet and upholstery cleaning visits take 1–2.5 hours. Larger homes or heavily stained fabrics may require more time or return visits for full drying.

Questions to Ask Your Tradie


  • What method will you use—steam, dry or shampoo cleaning?

  • Are your products safe for pets, children or allergy sufferers?

  • How long will drying take, and do I need to ventilate the area?

How to Avoid Surprises


  • Move light furniture and items off the carpet or upholstery in advance

  • Mention any delicate fabrics or specific stain concerns before the visit

  • Check whether reapplication of stain protection is included or extra
