Carpets are the filters for our homes

They trap the dust and other airborne allergens that would otherwise be floating around in the air we breathe. Whilst regular vacuuming of our carpets removes most of these allergens from the surface, over time, some of this stuff gets deep rooted within the pile of the carpet and only a professional deep clean will get rid of it. For a cleaner and healthier home, make it a point to regularly have your carpets and rugs deep cleaned. While it’s a chore to do it yourself, deep cleaning of your carpets is something that should never be neglected. For best results, you can always seek help from a professional carpet cleaning company like Revive Carpet Cleaning. We make thorough carpet cleaning fast and easy at very reasonable prices. Carpets are usually dry within 30 minutes of cleaning and we move your furniture too.

The photos show an example of what we can achieve, the first one was taken part way through the clean to show the difference as the job We also progressed, the second, the final result. We hope clean you agree that there is an amazing improvement. upholstery, including leather. For more information give us a call today 01229 230 821 or 07747 043919 visit www.revivecarpets.co.uk
