How much do I pay?
When you buy something you want to know you’re getting value for money. When you buy an item of clothing you can touch it, try it on and see how it looks. With carpet cleaning or upholstery cleaning your biggest question is how much will it cost me? Now, when you phone a carpet cleaning company and ask, "how much will it cost to clean my carpets, I have 3 bedrooms and a lounge/dining area?" They might say, "it'll cost you $80", but these companies build their businesses on price and not on service.
They don’t tell you:
It is probably because they are embarrassed, they probably don’t have a guarantee, they have small equipment, no formal training and a small service.
You have to receive what you are looking for:
- Stains removed
- Furniture moved and replaced
- Pre-vacuumed
- Neutralising their detergents
- Fast Drying time
- Smell nice
- How long does it take
How long does it take an average 3 bedroom house to be cleaned? Done properly, fully furnished should take 3-4 hours with our deluxe service. Some carpet cleaning firms give their cleaner 8 jobs per day. This is not possible unless big corners are cut. Go to Consumer Guides in our website to find out more.
Quoting over the phone
Pricing per room : how big is a room? We have done a lounge room/ hall once and the carpet area was 120 sq metres. The average for that area is about 30 sq metres. The fairest way to charge is per square metre. You might have a water bed in the room and thus we can’t charge you for the full room. Quoting over the phone is impossible. We do not know what we are fixing unless we can see it. We can only estimate how big your carpet area is or come out and give you a firm written quote. Compare apples to apples when you’re getting a quote and remember value for money.
For example:
If a carpet cleaner charges $60 for a 3 bedroom and lounge room and takes ½ an hour
and a carpet cleaner charges $120 for 3 bedrooms and lounge room and takes 1 hour
and a carpet cleaner charges $360 for 3 bedrooms and a lounge room and takes 3 hours
they are all on the same hourly rate.
The company that gives you the most value for money is the company with the better equipment, better guarantee, qualifications and the most thorough service.
Note : Most carpet and upholstery cleaners are the same amount of money per hour.

Quoting over the phone for Upholstery Cleaning
It is very difficult to quote upholstery cleaning over the phone as there are thousands of different fabrics out there which are all cleaned differently. Prices depend on the type of fabric, size of seating capacity and how soiled the upholstery is. By finding out these three things out we can decipher how long it will take and charge accordingly.
