Tannin stains like wine, coffee and tea usually respond well. Protein stains such as food, milk and vomit respond to enzyme treatment. Oil and grease need solvent pre-treatment but come out. What does not come out is bleach, heat and iron damage, and dye loss, because the colour has gone from the fibre rather than something sitting on it.

Blot it, never rub, and use cold water rather than hot. Beyond that, be careful. Supermarket sprays leave a detergent residue that attracts soil back into the same spot, and heat sets wine, coffee and protein stains permanently. Previous scrubbing is the most common thing that turns a treatable mark into a permanent one.

We tell you before we treat it. If we can see from the outset that a mark is dye loss or heat damage rather than soiling, we say so and you decide whether to proceed. We would rather lose a small job than take payment for a treatment that was never going to work.

Sometimes, and we will say so. If you have several marks scattered around, treating each one can end up costing more than a room clean, and it risks leaving clean patches on an otherwise dull carpet. A whole-room spot sweep is from $120.

Yes. We run hoses from the truck where the building allows it and use portable extraction where it does not, which covers the towers around Forrest Hill and Chapel Street. Tell us the floor and whether there is a service lift when you book so we bring the right setup.

Most South Yarra apartment buildings do require one from any contractor. We carry public liability insurance and can send the certificate through before the job. Sorting it when you book avoids being turned away at the loading dock.
