Each service is tailored to your specific carpet type and condition.

Our pricing is based on several factors including the size of the area to be cleaned (measured in square meters), the type of carpet, the level of soiling, any specialized treatments required (such as stain removal or odor treatment), and the cleaning method needed. We provide instant, no-obligation quotes after assessing your specific requirements.

Yes, we offer several package deals including whole-house cleaning discounts, combined services packages (carpet + upholstery cleaning), seasonal promotions, and loyalty discounts for returning customers. We also provide special rates for regular maintenance contracts and commercial clients. Please ask about our current promotions when you contact us.

While our emergency services may have a slightly higher rate due to the immediate response required, we strive to keep our emergency pricing fair and transparent. The exact cost depends on the time of day, the urgency of the situation, and the specific services needed. We always provide a clear quote before beginning any work, even in emergency situations.

We typically recommend hot water extraction (steam cleaning) for most residential carpets as it provides the deepest clean and effectively removes embedded dirt and allergens. However, our recommendation depends on your specific carpet type, material, and condition. For delicate carpets or those with natural fibers, we might suggest dry cleaning methods. We assess each situation individually to recommend the most effective approach.

Our comprehensive process includes: 1) Initial inspection and assessment of your carpet, 2) Pre-treatment of heavily soiled areas and stains, 3) Thorough vacuuming to remove loose dirt and debris, 4) Application of appropriate cleaning solution based on carpet type, 5) Agitation to loosen embedded dirt, 6) Hot water extraction or appropriate cleaning method, 7) Spot treatment for stubborn stains, 8) Application of deodorizers or protectants if requested, and 9) Final inspection to ensure quality results.

For tough stains, we use a specialized approach that involves identifying the stain type, applying appropriate pre-treatments, and using targeted cleaning techniques. For persistent odors, we utilize enzyme-based treatments that break down odor-causing compounds rather than just masking them. In severe cases, we may recommend deep extraction methods or specialized treatments depending on the source of the stain or odor.

We use commercial-grade, truck-mounted hot water extraction systems for maximum cleaning power and faster drying times. Our equipment includes powerful vacuum systems, specialized agitation tools, and professional-grade drying equipment. We use environmentally friendly, biodegradable cleaning solutions that are effective yet safe for your family and pets. All our products are selected for their cleaning efficacy while minimizing environmental impact.

For regular carpet cleaning services, we recommend booking 1-2 weeks in advance to secure your preferred date and time, especially during peak seasons (spring and early summer). However, we understand that needs can arise unexpectedly, and we always try to accommodate last-minute requests when possible. For emergency services, we offer 24/7 response and will attend to your needs as quickly as possible.

Our standard operating hours for scheduled appointments are Monday to Friday from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM, and Saturdays from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM. We also offer after-hours appointments by request for an additional fee. For emergency carpet cleaning services, we are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including holidays.

You can schedule an appointment through multiple channels: Call us directly at 0482 078 153, email us at info@emergencycarpetcleaningrichmond.au, use the online booking form on our website, or send us a message through our contact page. For emergency services, we recommend calling us directly for the fastest response. Our customer service team is ready to assist you with finding a convenient appointment time.

When booking, we’ll need: Your name, address, and contact information; the approximate size of the area to be cleaned; the type of carpet and its current condition; any specific stains or problem areas that need special attention; information about pets or children in the home; any furniture that needs to be moved; your preferred date and time for the service; and how you heard about us. This information helps us prepare properly for your specific needs.

Drying times typically range from 4-8 hours depending on several factors including the cleaning method used, carpet thickness, room temperature, humidity levels, and air circulation. Our hot water extraction method minimizes moisture, and we use high-powered extraction equipment to remove as much water as possible. We also offer accelerated drying services using air movers and dehumidifiers if needed, especially for emergency water damage situations.

You can walk on your carpet immediately after cleaning if necessary, but we recommend limiting foot traffic for at least 4-6 hours. If you must walk on the carpet, please wear clean white socks or clean indoor footwear to avoid transferring dirt. Avoid walking from damp carpet onto hard surfaces to prevent slipping. For best results, try to minimize foot traffic until the carpet is completely dry.

We recommend waiting until your carpet is completely dry before replacing furniture, which typically takes 6-8 hours. If you must replace furniture before complete drying, place protective barriers like plastic tabs or aluminum foil under furniture legs to prevent wood staining or rust marks on the damp carpet. For heavy furniture, waiting a full 24 hours is ideal to avoid compressing the carpet fibers while they’re still damp.

To maintain your carpet between professional cleanings: Vacuum regularly (at least once a week, more in high-traffic areas); address spills immediately by blotting (not rubbing) with a clean white cloth; use entrance mats to reduce dirt tracked in; consider applying carpet protectant; remove shoes indoors; rotate furniture periodically to prevent uneven wear; and schedule professional cleaning every 12-18 months for residential carpets (more frequently for high-traffic areas or homes with pets and children).
