Carpet Cleaners


Guest

Recommended Posts

Not an early years related query - but my Dad is in hospital at the moment and I wanted to clean/get his carpets cleaned while he is there.

 

Has anyone used the machines you can hire yourself?

 

I've noticed that Morrisons hire our carpet cleaning machines and was going to give it a go. Has anyone used their machines, or any others from hire companies, and what were the results like ?

 

Or/and, has anyone used a professional company to get carpets cleaned and can you give any advice as to how successful this has been and a ball park figure regarding cost of it?

 

Hoping to get it done one day this week.

 

Thanks

My daughter dropped green paint all on my carpet, and I hired a machine from B & Q - cost around 40 including clearning products but worked fantastically. Happy cleaning :rolleyes:

Thanks for asking 'bout my Dad Sunnyday - lots of tests going on at moment. It's also his birthday today (86)- we had a lovely day planned, but now will just be able to wheel him to a park to have some birthday cake and a chance for him to feed the birds.

 

Looks like I'm going to be doing the cleaning myself - was hoping they were rubbish so I could get the professionals in xD

Hali - hope your mum get's better soon. I'm going to bring my dad home today, not wonderful news regarding his health I'm sad to say, but he wants to be in his own home!

 

Because he's coming home today I've had to shelve the carpet cleaning ! ! :o :blink: - thanks for all help anyway. :1b

Hi we are a packaway preschool and have various carpet rugs, the largest a 3x3m bug one. For ease of storage and rolling I would suggest a square or the rectangular ones. If going for a large one, make sure you can fit it in your store area. May need two people also to carry or drag it, as it's rather heavy. Hope this helps.:)

really tricky to find good ones if they have to be rolled up and stored as ours do, we find after a year they start to bend in the middle and then become a tripping hazard

We had some really lovely ones from the internet from a place called Play and Learn they have lasted at least 4 years and when hoovered look as good as new, but I can't seem to find them any more, we had a heavy duty plain carpet from Morleys at the beginning of the year and whilst it's certainly robust it takes two of us to carry it into our storage shed it's very heavy.

We need to make the decision to buy cheap n cheerful and replace more often or go for expensive ones but they take twice the man power.....decisions, decisions :1b

ok have just ordered 2 new rugs from the rugseller.co.uk - free delivery - one alphabet one 3m x 2m and another circle one 133cmx133cm for grand total of £116 which means change from the £120 we got for selling another resource on ebay that was not suitable :D

 

Sorry this tickled me "circle one 133cmx133cm" lol :D ::1a :D
