Priced per room, agreed on the phone and not changed on the doorstep. A bedroom is £36, a living room £43. Rugs, sofas and mattresses can join the same visit, because the machine is already in the house.

What we get called out for
Rooms and hallways
Hot water extraction, walk-on dry in a couple of hours. Traffic lanes are the usual reason we are rung.
Stairs and landings
The hardest-worked carpet in the house, done tread by tread with a hand tool.
Rugs
Cleaned flat on a groundsheet, dyes tested first. Delicate fibres get a low-moisture clean.
Sofas and chairs
Upholstery tool at lower pressure, fabric code checked before anything gets wet.
Working in Tooting Bec
Almost everything here went up between roughly 1880 and 1910 as speculative builders filled the fields between the Common and Balham High Road. The result is street after street of two-storey bay-fronted terraces with tessellated paths and original pine boards, plus the grander Heaver Estate houses around Ritherdon Road with their red-brick detailing. A high proportion were split into upper and lower maisonettes in the 1970s and 80s, and there are runs of 1930s purpose-built mansion flats fronting Balham High Road.
The Common is clay soil under mature planes, so autumn and winter jobs mean leaf mould and grey clay walked straight onto hall carpets from the school run and dog walks.
Conservation-area restrictions across the Heaver Estate mean plenty of restored pine boards and woodblock with wool runners on the stairs rather than wall-to-wall fitted carpet, so rug and stair work outweighs full-room work.
Wandsworth's controlled parking zone covers the streets either side of the Common with hours that change road by road; a bay suspension has to be booked ahead if a van needs to sit outside for a couple of hours.
The water here is hard, which makes no difference to the extraction rinse. What slows drying in these houses is closed trickle vents, so we open windows while we work.
