According to our operations manager Tony (who has over 30 years’ experience), the most common question asked on a job is “is it going to clean up?” (I.e. will the stains remove?) We have been cleaning carpets in Dublin for almost 40 years now and while we can never guarantee that a stain will remove, […]
Soiling or Carpet Shading? I’m just back from a quote for Carpet Cleaning Dublin 9. The request that came into our office was to quote for carpet cleaning in a 3 bedroom house. We had applied a stain protector to these carpets approximately 2 years before. The whole house was carpeted in an 80/20 wool mix […]
How Much Does it Cost to Have a Carpet Cleaned? The short answer is it depends on who you get! There are many different carpet cleaning companies out there who charge a range of prices. Having been in the business for over 39 years, we have found the old adage “You get what you pay […]
With the downtime over the past few months, we undertook up-to-date "Infection Control and Bio-Hazard Fogging" training for our technicians and office staff. (See below for technicians' certificates.) The course we did was very interesting and educated us on different types of disinfectant products, best practices, which PPE (personal protective equipment) to use, and helped […]

Not all stains can be removed. Sadly, some do permanent damage to your carpets and upholstery. It is extremely important that you know what the proper cleaning instructions set by your carpet or rug manufacturer are. Some carpets/rugs are made of natural fibers such as wool and these tips should not be used in this […]
Misconception #1: You should wait as long as possible before cleaning your carpet: No! Dirt acts as an abrasive – like sandpaper. Every time you step on you carpet, you grind dirt in to the carpet fibres. This cuts your carpet, just as if you had used a knife. A dirty carpet will not last […]
How you deal with complaints is a measure of the company The last company that never had a complaint never actually got started. So of course we get the occasional complaint. Everyone does. How should complaints be viewed? It’s negative that you got a complaint but positive in that you can usually fix it. Sometimes […]
“CAN YOU CLEAN HALF A RUG???” You probably won’t believe this but we were asked this very question not long ago. Bemused, I asked the lady to explain why only half a rug. A little embarrassed she explained that she had just had her carpets cleaned and had asked the carpet cleaner to do her […]
We recently did a blog on why a guarantee on carpet cleaning should be extended to commercial work (although rarely is): aqua-dry.com/news/commercial-guarantee/.

When a money-back […]

A recent experience Two issues that often come up in carpet cleaning are the issue of “carpet shading” also known as “pile reversal”, and cleaning sisal carpets (see images below). I had an interesting experience today when asked to clean some carpets in a lovely home in Rush, Co. Dublin. Although this lady is a […]
There are many factors at play in deciding how often to get carpets cleaned. For many people, it is a reactive thing. They get their carpets cleaned when they begin to appear soiled (or are already quite soiled). Depending on the colour and pattern of your carpet and the lighting in the room, soil may […]
We Take Customer Service Seriously! Customer service is something we take a great deal of care with in our own carpet and upholstery cleaning business.

Why a one size fits all approach rarely works for Commercial Carpet Cleaning If you are thinking of implementing a carpet cleaning maintenance plan, some thought needs to go into the needs and requirements of your commercial premises. A one-size-fits-all approach may be convenient for the carpet cleaning provider but may not represent best value […]
