Your company was recommended by two of my friends who were very happy with the service they received. I liked a lot about your service My initial query was responded to very quickly. Pricings and the various options were clearly detailed in the quote email. Everyone I dealt with was very pleasant, helpful and knowledgeable. I was kept informed of what to do in preparation, time of arrival etc. When I needed to change the date of cleaning it was not seen as a problem but quickly sorted out. Tony arrived on time. He was very pleasant to deal with and worked quickly and cleanly in my home. Before he left he explained how long it would take the sofas to dry. I am delighted with the end result and would not hesitate to recommend you to others. I cannot think of how the service could be improved. The service provided was excellent and I am thrilled with the results. However your staff members are your best asset. In an era of impersonal service it is a pleasure to deal with people like Hannah and Tony who really made me feel like you appreciated my business

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should I have my carpets cleaned?

Most of our customers opt for an annual deep clean, while others book us for special occasions or to tackle unexpected spills.

Over time, carpets collect dust, dirt, allergens, and even food debris brought in from outside. We generally recommend professional deep carpet cleaning at least once a year to prevent sticky residues from attracting more dirt and causing stains to resurface. Without regular cleaning, carpets can start to look dull and even develop a musty smell.

Many of our customers tell us their home feels fresher after a deep clean, and those with respiratory sensitivities often notice an improvement in air quality.

How long will it take to dry?

Drying times vary considerably from 4-12 hours so it is a little harder to give a solid indication, however, the more heavily soiled a carpet or suite of furniture is, the longer it will take to dry. The weather has a part to play too: warm breezy days are perfect for speeding up drying times. It is also important to have good airflow in the room, without that, it will take longer to dry. While not essential to stay off carpets when they are drying, we do advise you to exercise caution if walking from the damp carpet to a hard floor such as wood or marble, as it can be slippery underfoot.

How do I pay? Do you take card payment?

Payment can be made on the day to the technician. We accept cash, debit, and credit card payments, making it easy and convenient for you to pay for our services.

No deposit is required beforehand and our technician will leave a receipt on the job. If an email VAT receipt is required, we can email or post one to you upon payment.

Which areas in Dublin do you cover?

We provide carpet and upholstery cleaning throughout Dublin city centre, Northside, Southside and surrounding areas including Swords, Malahide, Portmarnock, Raheny, Donnybrook, Blackrock, Castleknock, Dundrum, Tallaght and more.

See our list of areas covered in Dublin. Not sure if we cover your location? Just get in touch—we’ll be happy to help.

How long does the carpet cleaning process take?

The duration of the actual carpet cleaning job itself will depend on the size of the areas, the level of cleaning needed, and the access to the area. 

Drying times can vary depending on the level of airflow in the rooms. E.g. carpets will dry more quickly on a warm breezy summer's day. However, we usually give an estimate of 6-12 hours.

How do I know if my carpet is suitable for cleaning?

We clean a wide variety of carpets and upholstery, using advanced techniques to achieve outstanding results. If you're unsure, reach out for a free assessment, and we’ll let you know if your carpet is suitable for cleaning. You can also check out our carpet cleaning before-and-after gallery to see our results!

How long have you been cleaning carpets?

Aqua-Dry has been cleaning carpets in Dublin for over 40 years. We’re passionate about what we do and continuously update our techniques to provide the best results possible.

What sets your carpet cleaning service apart?

With over 40 years of experience, we’ve built a reputation as one of Dublin’s most trusted carpet cleaning companies. We use top-of-the-line equipment and premium cleaning solutions to achieve outstanding results.

We have full public and product liability insurance and a 100% satisfaction money back guarantee

We’re proud to have over 1100 5-star reviews from delighted customers all over Dublin and surrounding areas not only for our carpet cleaning but also for our upholstery cleaning and rug cleaning services. We have a 5-star Google rating and are be recommended by Arnotts, Frank McGowan, and Finline Furniture. Our small, friendly team is dedicated to providing exceptional service, which is why so many Dublin customers return to us year after year.

Do you have any professional accreditations?

Yes! Our technicians are trained by the National Carpet Cleaners Association (NCCA) and regularly attend training sessions to stay up to date with the latest techniques and industry standards.

What carpet cleaning methods do you use?

We use the Hot Water Extraction method, which deep cleans carpets, removes dirt, and leaves them looking and feeling fresh.

We also offer:

  • Clean and Protect Treatment – Adds a stain protector to help prevent future spills from setting in.
  • Healthy Home Service – Includes stain protection plus a sanitisation treatment to target mould, fungi, and allergens—ideal for allergy sufferers and households looking to eliminate odours.

I’ve received a cheaper quote elsewhere, what makes you different?

We’re not the cheapest carpet cleaning service in Dublin, but we firmly believe we offer the best value. With over 40 years of experience, full insurance, and a 100% money-back guarantee, we stand by the quality of our work.

Sadly, we’ve received many calls from people who went with a cheaper “man-with-a-van” service and were left disappointed—or worse, ignored—when they tried to raise concerns. There are a lot of cheaper carpet cleaning companies in Dublin, but as the saying goes, the bitterness of poor quality remains long after the sweetness of a low price is forgotten.

What are your opening/operational hours?

Hannah and Tim in our office in Dublin are available from 9.30am-5.30pm Monday to Friday. We respond to every email and voicemail so if you don’t get through to us immediately, please be assured that we will respond as soon as possible. We typically reply the same day or if it's a later query the following working day.

In most cases a quotation can be given over the phone. In order to get an accurate quotation, it's helpful if you have an idea of the measurements of the areas to be cleaned. We can also provide a quote via our contact form and you can upload photos there which is very helpful.

Do you offer a follow-up service?

Yes! After your appointment, Hannah or Tim will follow up to make sure you’re happy with the results. 

We also provide a reminder service, so if you’d like to set up regular carpet cleaning, we can notify you when your next clean is due!
