Between Balham High Road and the Lido
Most of the houses we work in here were built between about 1880 and 1910, and a good share have since had the loft done. That adds a third flight, usually ending in a sharp turn, so our machine waits by the front door while the hose climbs the stairs. Around Ritherdon Road and the rest of the Heaver Estate you'll find restored pine boards with a wool runner on the stairs, which means a lot of our time goes on runners and rugs.
Parking needs a bit of thought. The streets either side of the Common sit in Wandsworth's D zones, and the hours change from road to road: 9.30am to 4.30pm on weekdays in parts of Tooting Bec, until 6.30pm and through Saturday in others. Give us your road when you book and we'll check which applies.
From autumn the hall carpets pick up grey clay and leaf mould off the Common. Let it dry, then hoover it before we come, because wet clay smears when it's rubbed. Our water is very hard as well, and shampoo left in wool dries stiff and attracts dirt, so the final passes in every room use clean rinse water only.

Stairs up to the loft
Once a loft is converted there are two flights, and the steep top one gets done by hand with a stair tool. Each landing is £9 on top.
Stairs £41 a flight - 03
Rugs on bare boards
Wool rugs on restored pine or woodblock, cleaned flat on a sheet in your own front room once the dyes have passed a test.
Rugs from £35 - 04
Sofas and armchairs
Fabric sofas cleaned where they stand, at lower pressure than a carpet, so the foam underneath is fine to sit on by evening.
Sofas from £57
