The minimum call-out charge is £67, which covers the technician’s arrival, a full pre-inspection, equipment setup and the cleaning of your first area.

Most carpets are dry and ready to walk on within 2-4 hours of cleaning. Drying time varies depending on several factors including carpet thickness, pile depth, room ventilation and ambient humidity. Denton’s compact terraced and semi-detached properties can sometimes have limited airflow, so we recommend opening windows and internal doors after cleaning to help circulation. Thicker wool carpets with a deep pile will take longer to dry than thin polypropylene or nylon carpets. In cooler, damp weather – common across Tameside through autumn and winter – using central heating at a low setting alongside open windows can speed up the process. Our hot water extraction equipment removes the majority of moisture during the cleaning pass itself, which is why drying times are significantly shorter than methods that leave excess water in the carpet.

Yes. All of our cleaning solutions are non-toxic, biodegradable and free from harsh chemicals. They are completely safe for babies, young children, dogs, cats and other household pets, as well as people with allergies or asthma. Our hot water extraction process actually improves the indoor air quality in your home by removing allergens, dust mites, bacteria and chemical residue that have become trapped deep within carpet fibres over time.

Stain Kings uses hot water extraction, which is a fundamentally different process from steam cleaning. Hot water extraction works by injecting hot water and Prochem cleaning solution under pressure deep into the carpet pile, then immediately extracting it along with dissolved dirt, bacteria, allergens and staining. The extraction step is what makes the method so effective – soiling is physically removed from the carpet, not just loosened. Steam cleaning, by contrast, uses dry vapour applied at the carpet surface. It does not penetrate deep into the pile and there is no extraction process to remove dissolved soiling. This means dirt is often pushed further into the fibres rather than removed. Hot water extraction achieves a deeper, more thorough clean and faster drying because the moisture is extracted during the same pass. This is why leading carpet manufacturers including Cormar Carpets, Brintons and Victoria Carpets specifically recommend hot water extraction as the preferred professional cleaning method for their products.

Yes. Stain Kings is a WoolSafe approved operator – this is an international quality scheme that certifies professional operators and products specifically for use on wool carpets. Wool is a natural fibre that is pH-sensitive, meaning it can be damaged by high-alkalinity cleaning solutions that would be perfectly safe on synthetic carpets. Our technicians use Prochem solutions formulated at the correct low-alkalinity pH range for wool, combined with controlled water temperature and reduced extraction pressure. This ensures a thorough deep clean without risking shrinkage, colour bleeding, texture change or fibre distortion. Whether your Denton home has a wool Axminster, a Wilton or a wool-blend carpet, we have the training, accreditation and equipment to clean it safely.

We move light to medium furniture such as dining chairs, small tables, sofas and lightweight items at no extra charge. Heavy items such as beds, wardrobes, large bookcases and pianos are left in place and we clean around them. We recommend clearing smaller personal items, ornaments and clutter from the rooms before we arrive so we can work efficiently and ensure your belongings are fully protected during the clean.

The ideal frequency depends on your household, carpet type and the level of daily wear. For Denton family homes with children or pets – particularly those near Haughton Dale or Victoria Park where mud is regularly tracked in – we recommend professional cleaning every 12-18 months to keep allergens and ground-in soiling under control. Rental properties with high tenant turnover should be cleaned at the end of each tenancy to meet deposit-back standards and maintain the carpet’s condition between lets. Older Denton housing stock with heavy pile wool carpets, common in the Dane Bank and Town Lane areas, benefits from annual cleaning to prevent deep-set soiling from permanently discolouring the fibres. Newer builds fitted with polypropylene or synthetic carpets, such as those on the Whittles Farm development, can typically extend to 18-24 months between cleans if the household is low traffic.

Most stains can be fully removed or significantly reduced, including tea, coffee, red wine, pet urine, food spills, mud, grease and general soiling. Some stains – such as bleach marks, permanent dye transfer and acid damage – have chemically altered the carpet fibre itself and cannot be reversed by any cleaning process. We always assess stains during our pre-inspection and give you an honest expectation of the likely outcome before any work begins. We carry specialist spotting solutions for over a dozen stain types including ink, candle wax, blood, paint and felt tip.
