Most upholstery fabrics are wet cleanable but not all, so it is important to carry out a survey to decide how to proceed. We thoroughly vacuum all the pieces to be cleaned then we can attempt stain removal. Full cleaning depends on how dirty the items are and the condition of the fabric itself. Wool is a protein fibre formed in the skin of sheep and is a totally natural, renewable source with sheep making a new fleece every year.
At the end of its useful life, wool can be returned to the soil to breakdown quickly. Wool has always been appreciated for its unique properties and science has yet to produce a fibre which matches it. Successfully removing stains depends upon the cleaner's ability to identify the fibre and the construction of the carpet or upholstery fabric.
It is then essential to choose the right product and apply it correctly. Without this knowledge, stain removal is hit-and-miss and could cause permanent damage to the fibres or set the stain in. The most frequent comment on finishing a job is for the homeowner to tell us that their house smells lovely.

It has been over thirty years since Steve Wildman's High Quality Carpet and Upholstery Cleaning service came into being. Since 1985 we had a desire to seek out innovation by investing in the most advanced products and machinery with further investment spent on training to keep abreast of the latest up to date cleaning techniques.
In our introduction we mentioned that the degree of soiling dictates how a carpet should be cleaned. The first step involves gently opening up the pile to check the degree of soiling and whether this soiling is dusty, greasy, compacted or a combination of any of these three. Next the carpet is inspected for draught marks, obvious stains, the condition of the seams and any worn or faded areas.
The first step is to quantify the degree of soiling and staining on the fabric as either light, moderate or heavy. Then we establish the type of fibres present as this will help determine whether the fabric will give up or retain the soiling or staining. This test also confirms if it is wet or dry cleanable.
Cleaning leather upholstery requires a different approach than for cleaning fabric upholstery. Before we start to clean, it is essential to determine the type of leather the customer has so that the correct cleaning solutions and methods can be used. This will ensure that no damage is caused during the cleaning process.
The most frequent comment on finishing a job is for the homeowner to tell us that their house smells lovely. As far as our customers are concerned, their carpets or upholstery must smell clean as well as look clean but cleaning alone will not eliminate odours. That is why as professional cleaners, deodorising is important to us.

My sister and I are extremely grateful to Steve for his incredible service. We had difficult stains that needed to be removed from a bedroom carpet and Steve not only did an incredible job of removing them, but went above and beyond in his kindness and professionalism. We would without a doubt recommend his services to anyone and would return in the future for any needed cleaning jobs!

Im so glad I got Steven and his wife to do our carpet - it looks amazing. They are a lovely couple, friendly and professional. Our carpet was a mess after building work and some impossible stains but they did a great job and it looks good as new. I would definitely recommend them.

Steve attended through recommendation of our decorator and we are truly happy with the results. We have previously used a different company and in comparison Steve provided much better results.
Both him and his wife were friendly and professional and they cleaned up the carpet very well.
Would definitely recommend the company and will have them back in the future. Thanks again

I am truly grateful to this amazing husband and wife team! We had a paint spill on a very good quality rug which I really didn’t think would come out. I called them on a Friday at about 18.00 and Stephen was happy to receive my visit to their premises to inspect the damaged rug. Unbelievably, despite the time both he and his wife immediately began working on it and enthusiastically assured me not to worry and they’d do what they could to save me from having to purchase another rug! Within two days I now have it back in better and cleaner condition than it was in before spilling the paint on

Steven was recommended to us by a friend and was highly delighted when he offered us a time immediately to give us a free estimate. This we accepted and Steven arrived promptly as arranged and cleaned our leather suite which was in need of his care and attention. We were delighted with the finished product and has made such a difference in our lounge which has recently been decorated.
Steven was extremely knowledgeable and could advise the best products to use for care and maintenance.
