Carpet steam cleaning in Wellington
Traffic lanes, stairs, and the odd spill sit in the fibre. We steam clean carpets in the home so they come up fresher without you hiring a machine and hoping.
A properly scoped service
What to expect from carpet steam cleaning
Carpet steam cleaning—often called hot water extraction—rinses suspended soil from carpet fibres after vacuuming and pre-treatment. The method, chemistry, and moisture level need to suit the fibre, construction, condition, and access at the property.
Traffic lanes and general soil usually respond better than permanent dye loss, wear, bleaching, or old contamination. We discuss spots and expectations before work begins so cleaning is not confused with restoration or a guarantee that every mark will disappear.

Our process
Clear from first message to final check.
Inspect the carpet
We review fibre, wear, stains, access, ventilation, and any areas that need testing or special treatment.
Vacuum and pre-treat
Dry soil is removed first, then suitable solution is applied to traffic lanes and agreed spots.
Extract and rinse
The carpet is cleaned with controlled solution and recovery passes to remove suspended soil and excess moisture.
Set up drying
Ventilation, heating, weather, pile depth, and room use all affect how quickly the carpet can return to service.
Scope

The visit follows the property. These are the details that most often change the time, equipment, or team required.
- Number and size of rooms, stairs, halls, and rugs
- Carpet fibre, pile, installation, and overall condition
- Spots, pet contamination, odour treatment, and heavy traffic lanes
- Furniture moving, parking, hose access, apartment lifts, and drying conditions

Before you book.
Specific requirements will be confirmed in your quote. These answers cover the questions we hear most often.
How long does carpet take to dry?
Drying varies with fibre, pile, extraction, weather, ventilation, heating, and soil level. We will give practical guidance at the property rather than promise one fixed time.
Will steam cleaning remove every stain?
No. Some marks are permanent colour change, wear, bleaching, or contamination rather than removable soil. We explain likely outcomes before treatment where possible.
Do you move furniture?
Small movable items can be discussed. Heavy, fragile, wired, or valuable furniture should be moved beforehand or excluded from the cleaned area.
Can you treat pet odour?
Tell us before quoting. Surface treatment can improve some issues, but contamination that has reached underlay or flooring may require specialist remediation or replacement.
