Most marks are dirt sitting in the pile, and those lift. Some have dyed the fibre, and those don't. I'll tell you which one you've got before I start, not after.

Tell me about the stain
What it is if you know, how long it's been there and what it's on. A photo helps. No obligation, no hard sell.
Not every mark
is a stain.
A lot of what people call stains is really soil: dirt that has settled in one spot and catches the light differently. That comes out with a proper clean.
A true stain is different. Something has dyed the fibre itself, as hair dye, fake tan or tea left for months can. Bleach is different again, because it takes colour out and nothing puts it back.
I check which one you have before I start, so you know what to expect.
Three steps,
no guesswork
Stains are priced separately. I look at them on the day and agree a price with you before I touch them. If a stain doesn't come out, you don't pay for that stain.
What usually comes out, and what might not
Better you know this before you book than after.
These normally lift out
- Mud, food and drink spills
- Coffee and tea, if they haven't been there for months
- Grease and oily marks
- Dark traffic lanes that are really soil
- Marks left by an old spot cleaner
These are harder, or not possible
- Hair dye, fake tan and some medicines, which dye the fibre
- Bleach or strong cleaners that have taken colour out
- Old stains that have been scrubbed with the wrong product
Reviews from Bedford homes
Stains are where you find out if someone knows what they're doing. Here is what two customers said.
"Excellent service beginning to end. Mantas went round first and told me what results would be achievable and which marks were dye damage. Carpet was walkable the same evening."
Leon H, Google review
"Mantas did a brilliant job with my sofa. He communicated really well from start to finish, was really polite, and did an excellent job at getting some difficult stains out!"
Olivia F, Google review
The things people ask first
It depends on what the stain is, how big it is and how long it has been there. I look at it on the day and agree a price with you before I start. If it doesn't come out, you don't pay for that stain.
No. A normal clean takes out the general dirt, and a lot of marks go with it. Proper stain treatment takes extra time and different products, so I price it separately and only do it if you want it.
Blot it with a clean white cloth and a little cold water, then leave it. Scrubbing spreads a stain and frays the pile, and a lot of shop sprays leave a sticky residue that makes the mark worse later.
Yes, on fabric sofas. I check the care label and test the fabric first, because some fabrics mark if they get too wet. I don't clean leather.
Not if everything is rinsed out properly. A stain that comes back is usually leftover product attracting dirt, or something below the carpet working its way up. I rinse out what I put in, and if I think the problem is underneath, I'll tell you.
Anything else needing done?
Most people get more than one thing cleaned in the same visit. It saves you a second appointment.
