We often get calls from people who have had a spill or a stain and have gone to work on it with Vanish, washing up liquid, bleach or baking soda etc. Unfortunately, these home treatments can make the situation worse, often leaving permanent stains.
By booking with a professional carpet and upholstery cleaning service you’ll benefit from our top-of-the-range equipment, cleaning products, and (most importantly) expertise in removing stains, soil and allergens in much less time, with much less effort and with much better results than you will be able to achieve yourself.
If in doubt, we’re happy to give you advice over the phone so get in touch with us on 01-8400799 or via our contact form.
It can happen (on occasion), that deep stains can wick back up and reappear shortly after the job has been completed and while it can be difficult for a customer to broach dissatisfaction, our office staff follow up each and every job with a call, text or email to check if the customer was satisfied. If it’s the case that the customer felt the job wasn’t satisfactory, we will gladly arrange for a complimentary revisit. We would always prefer to have the opportunity to delight the customer and leave them totally satisfied with the job.
When we check in with you after the job, please mention any aspects of the job that you weren’t satisfied with and we will arrange a complimentary re-visit of the area. If you still aren’t pleased, you pay nothing. Not one cent! No Quibbles.
This makes our service risk-free for our customers.
We are fully insured with public and product liability insurance so that in the extremely unusual case that something goes wrong, you are totally covered.
The quotation we give is a real quotation, we don’t offer false low prices and then introduce add-ons and hidden charges on site. Our office staff usually provide a quotation over the phone, or by email, but wherever necessary an on-site quotation can be arranged so we can give you the most accurate price.
Our machines and cleaning products are purchased from the most reputable manufacturers and have been safety tested to EU standards. They are non-toxic and are suitable for use in the home.
The length of the job will vary depending on what is being cleaned. Our office staff will be able to give you a good indication when you are booking in.
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 allowing speedy drying times. It is also important to have an 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.
Payment can be made on the day and we accept all major credit/debit cards as well as cash or cheque. We don’t require a deposit beforehand and will leave a paper receipt on the job. If a VAT receipt is required, we can email or post one to you upon payment.
We cover all areas in Dublin, and while we mainly service the greater Dublin area, we can also service areas outside Dublin. Depending on the size of the job, and the distance, a travel fee may apply to areas further afield.
Our friendly office staff are available from 9am-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.
In most cases a quotation can be given over the phone if you have an idea of the size of the areas to be cleaned that would be helpful however we can also provide a quote via our contact form.

All four options start with a Deep Clean, which includes a pre-spray treatment, hot water extraction and individual attention to stains.
Stain protector can help protect upholstery, but it cannot guarantee that every spill or stain will be prevented or removed.
Stain protector can be applied to suitable new carpets and upholstery or to items that have been professionally cleaned. The material’s condition and any existing protective treatment should be checked before application.
Our technicians can advise whether a treatment is appropriate for your carpet or furniture. Regular vacuuming and prompt attention to spills remain important after application.
A stain protector forms a protective barrier around suitable carpet and upholstery fibres. This helps improve resistance to everyday spills and soiling and gives you more time to absorb a spill before it soaks in.
It may also make some soiling easier to remove during cleaning. It does not make the material stain-proof or replace regular care.
No. A stain protector can help with everyday spills and soiling, but some substances, including bleach and certain food colourings, may still cause permanent marks or colour changes.
Prompt attention to spills remains important. A protective treatment may make some spills easier to clean, but it does not guarantee that every stain can be removed.
The treatment is designed to preserve the appearance and feel of suitable carpets and upholstery. Our technicians check the material’s compatibility before applying it.
Not every material is suitable for a stain protector treatment, so please ask us for advice if you are unsure.
A stain protector treatment can help suitable carpets and upholstery resist everyday spills and soiling, giving you more time to deal with accidents and helping furnishings stay looking fresher with regular care.
It may make routine cleaning easier, but it cannot prevent all stains, repair existing damage or protect against every form of wear. Our technicians can explain what is appropriate for your home or workplace.
How long a stain protector remains effective depends on the material, the amount of use and wear, and subsequent cleaning. Busy hallways and office reception areas may need attention sooner than lightly used rooms.
Professional cleaning can reduce the effectiveness of an existing treatment. After cleaning, our technicians can assess whether a top-up is appropriate and which areas would benefit from it. A full reapplication is not always necessary.
Aqua-Dry has over 40 years’ experience in professional carpet and upholstery care. We can advise on a suitable stain protector treatment and explain how to maintain your furnishings afterwards.
