What are the stages of Ultra Clean’s carpet and upholstery cleaning process?
Our process covers dry-soil removal, suitable pre-spray, agitation where appropriate, hot water extraction on suitable materials, optional deodorising and airflow to support drying. We adapt or omit stages to suit the carpet or upholstery rather than use every machine on every item.
What is hot water extraction cleaning?
Hot water extraction rinses suitable carpet or upholstery fibres with an appropriate cleaning solution and recovers loosened dirt, residues and moisture through extraction. Ultra Clean uses an Ashbys Enforcer, adapting the method and pressure to the material.
Is your cleaning process the same for carpets and upholstery?
No. Both need material-appropriate care, but carpet vacuuming and brushing equipment is not used on every fabric. We choose preparation, cleaning solutions, tools and extraction settings for the item’s material, condition and level of soiling.
Can you remove every stain from a carpet or sofa?
No cleaning process can guarantee removal of every stain. The material, cause and age of the mark, permanent damage and previous treatments affect the result. Tell us about stains when you enquire so we can discuss realistic expectations.
What is the Lotus & Cotton treatment?
Lotus & Cotton is our signature fragrance for a suitable optional deodorising finish. Tell us about fragrance preferences or sensitivities before the appointment. Treatment suitability and any antibacterial benefit depend on the actual product and its approved instructions.
How long will carpets and upholstery take to dry?
Drying varies with the material, pile or fabric thickness, ventilation, room temperature and retained moisture. We use a Dri-Pod to support airflow across cleaned floor surfaces and explain drying and aftercare for the individual job. We do not promise one drying time for every clean.
How should I prepare for my cleaning appointment?
Share your postcode, the items and their sizes, care-label information, stains and any previous treatments. Tell us about parking, stairs, access and furniture. We will explain preparation for the agreed work before the appointment; check before moving large or heavy items.
