The time required depends on the size of the area and the condition of the carpet. For example, an average living room usually takes around 45 minutes to an hour, including inspection, pre-treatment and extraction.

Very professional service from start to finish. The carpets dried within a few hours and even older traffic marks improved far more than I expected.
The time required depends on the size of the area and the condition of the carpet. For example, an average living room usually takes around 45 minutes to an hour, including inspection, pre-treatment and extraction.
Drying time is typically between 4 and 8 hours. Ventilation, room temperature and carpet thickness all play a part, and we’ll advise on simple steps to help it dry evenly.
Many stains improve significantly with professional treatment. However, some older marks or permanent dye damage may not disappear entirely. We always assess stains beforehand and explain what outcome you can realistically expect.
Carpets naturally collect more than we realise. Fine dust, outdoor grit and everyday spills work their way deep into the fibres, especially in busy areas of the home. Over time, this build-up can make carpets appear dull and feel slightly coarse underfoot.
Our carpet cleaning in Croydon focuses on removing that embedded soil rather than simply freshening the surface. We use professional hot water extraction equipment, which rinses through the fibres and lifts dirt out thoroughly. This method helps restore the natural look and texture of the carpet without leaving sticky residues behind.
Every job begins with a careful inspection. We check the carpet type, overall condition and any areas that need extra attention. Different fibres respond differently to moisture and cleaning products, so the process is adjusted accordingly.
High-traffic zones such as hallways, stairs and living rooms are usually pre-treated first. This step loosens compacted dirt so it can be removed more effectively during extraction. Stains are treated individually, based on their type and age. While not every mark can be fully erased, most improve significantly once properly cleaned.
The extraction process itself involves applying warm cleaning solution deep into the carpet and then immediately removing it along with the loosened debris. Because the solution is rinsed out, carpets are left clean rather than coated.
Once dry, carpets often look brighter and feel softer. Colours appear clearer simply because the layer of embedded dust has been removed. In many homes, there’s also a noticeable improvement in overall freshness.
Drying times typically range from four to eight hours, depending on ventilation and carpet thickness. We’ll always explain how to encourage safe, even drying.
Our aim is straightforward: to provide a careful, reliable service that helps maintain a clean, comfortable home. No over-promises — just thorough work carried out with attention to detail.
I appreciated how careful they were around furniture and skirting boards. The carpet feels much softer underfoot now.
Choosing a carpet cleaning company isn’t only about equipment — it’s about how the work is carried out. We take the time to prepare each area properly, protect surrounding flooring where needed, and move smaller items carefully. Attention to these details makes the whole process smoother for you.
We also believe consistency matters. Turning up on time, explaining what we’re doing, and working methodically through each room are simple things, but they make a real difference. You shouldn’t be left guessing how long the job will take or what the outcome will be.
Another important factor is product selection. We use suitable cleaning solutions designed for professional use and apply them in the right balance. Over-wetting or excessive product use can cause problems later. A controlled, measured approach helps protect the carpet backing and reduces drying time.
For households with pets or children, we’re mindful of safety and practicality. Once the carpet is dry, it’s ready for normal use again. We’re also happy to share practical advice on maintenance — small changes in vacuuming habits or dealing with spills quickly can extend the life of your carpets noticeably.
Finally, we understand that every home is different. Some clients need a routine annual refresh. Others contact us when preparing for guests, selling a property, or ending a tenancy. Whatever the reason, the aim remains the same: careful, professional cleaning carried out properly.
It’s this steady, straightforward approach that keeps customers returning when their carpets are due for another deep clean.

George Carpet Cleaning Croydon was built around a simple idea: do the job properly and treat people’s homes with respect. Over the years, we’ve worked in a wide range of properties across Croydon and throughout London inside the M25 — from compact flats to large family houses.
We’re a local, hands-on team, not a faceless call centre. When you contact us, you’re speaking to someone who understands the service and the practical side of the work. That direct approach helps keep things clear and straightforward from the first enquiry to the final result.
Experience has taught us that no two carpets are exactly the same. Fibre type, age, foot traffic and previous cleaning methods all affect how a carpet should be treated. That’s why we assess each job individually rather than relying on a fixed routine.
Our focus is consistency. Turning up when agreed, explaining the process clearly, and carrying out careful, thorough work every time. It’s not about bold claims — it’s about steady, reliable service that customers feel comfortable recommending to others.
