Most carpets cleaned by Stain Kings are dry within 2-4 hours. In Old Trafford, many of the terraced properties have good natural airflow when front and rear windows are opened, which helps speed drying considerably. The exact time depends on several factors: ventilation and air circulation in the room, the thickness and pile depth of the carpet, ambient humidity on the day, and whether the carpet is wool, nylon or polypropylene. Thicker wool carpets with a deep pile may sit at the longer end of the range, while low-pile polypropylene in a well-ventilated room can feel dry within two hours. We always advise keeping windows open and, where possible, using fans to keep air moving across the carpet surface.

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 to 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 all the dissolved dirt, bacteria, allergens and soiling that has been loosened. The key is the extraction stage – everything that goes in comes straight back out. Steam cleaning, on the other hand, applies dry vapour at the carpet surface only. It does not inject solution into the pile and it does not extract anything from the carpet. This means soiling that sits below the surface is simply left behind. Hot water extraction achieves a deeper, more thorough clean and faster drying because residual moisture is actively removed rather than left to evaporate. This is why Cormar Carpets, Brintons and Victoria Carpets all recommend hot water extraction as the preferred method for professional carpet cleaning.

Yes. Stain Kings is a WoolSafe approved operator, which means the team has been assessed and recognised by the WoolSafe organisation – an international quality scheme that sets standards for operators and products used on wool carpets. Wool is pH-sensitive and reacts badly to high-alkalinity cleaning solutions, which can cause shrinkage, colour bleeding and fibre damage. Prochem solutions are specifically formulated to work within the safe pH range for wool, ensuring a thorough clean without compromising the carpet. Our technicians are trained to adjust water temperature and extraction pressure for wool Axminster, Wilton and wool-blend carpets to protect the fibre throughout the process.

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 right frequency depends on your household and how the carpet is used. In Old Trafford family homes with children or pets, we recommend professional cleaning every 12-18 months to keep allergens, bacteria and ground-in soiling under control. Rental properties with higher tenant turnover should be cleaned at the end of each tenancy to maintain deposit-back standards and protect the carpet’s condition for the next occupant. Older Old Trafford terraces and semis that still have original heavy-pile wool carpets benefit from annual professional cleaning, as wool traps more particulate matter deep in its dense fibres. Newer builds and apartments fitted with polypropylene or synthetic loop-pile carpets can often go 18-24 months between professional cleans, provided regular vacuuming is maintained.

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.
