Deep carpet cleaning in Guildford

Guildford is a historic county town, with its medieval castle and the River Wey running through the middle, and its homes range from period terraces and townhouses to modern family houses and flats. Whatever the property, the carpets face the same daily wear: muddy shoes, pets, children and spilt drinks.

Surrey Hills Cleaning is an independent, local business run by John from our base in Oxshott, a straight run down the A3. We clean carpets, rugs, sofas, armchairs and mattresses across Guildford and the villages around it, for both homes and businesses, and we were named Best Carpet and Upholstery in Surrey in the SME News UK Enterprise Awards 2026.

Whether you live in a townhouse near the High Street, a family home in Merrow or Burpham, or a flat close to the university, the process is the same: we come to you, set up our equipment, clean the carpets in place and leave them to dry. There is nothing to roll up or take away.

The difference agitation makes

Plenty of carpet cleaners spray a solution onto the carpet and suck it straight back out. It looks quick, but the detergent never really gets to the dirt at the base of the pile. We do it differently.

After a thorough pre-vacuum, we apply a conditioning pre-spray and spot treat individual stains. Then we agitate, brushing the solution into the fibres so it can break the bond between the dirt and the carpet. Only then do we rinse with hot water extraction at 120°C, using our Power-Flex Storm 800psi machine, which lifts out the loosened soil and the cleaning solution together and kills bacteria and dust mites as it goes.

We finish by grooming the pile so it dries evenly, and bring a turbo dryer fan if you need the room back sooner. Stain treatment and a deodoriser are part of every clean, not an extra on the bill.

Pale carpets, pets and busy family homes

Cream and light coloured carpets look wonderful until the first traffic lane appears down the hall. We see a lot of them, and a proper clean will often bring them back to a colour you had forgotten they were. Coffee, red wine, ink, mud and pet stains are each treated in their own way before the main clean, and we always tell you honestly beforehand if a mark is likely to be permanent.

Our cleaning agents are free from harsh or caustic chemicals, and hot water extraction rinses them out rather than leaving a sticky residue, so the carpet is safe for children and pets as soon as it is dry. For wool and wool blends we adjust the method to suit the fibre: we are Woolsafe approved, with a Woolsafe Registered Inspector, and fully insured.

Whole-house cleans and combined visits

Guildford sits a little further from Oxshott than our core towns, and the best value comes from getting several things done in one visit. Our minimum charge for any job is £110, which covers bringing and setting up the full equipment. Here is how our prices work:

  • Any room (bedroom, lounge or dining room): £45
  • Stairs and landing: £45
  • 2-bed house with stairs and landing: £170
  • 3-bed house with stairs and landing: £215
  • Rugs: from £50, depending on size
  • Armchair: £45

Many Guildford customers book the whole house in one go, or add a sofa, a rug or a mattress to the carpets. Sofas are £110 for a two-seater, £130 for a three-seater and £140 for a four-seater, with every cushion cleaned front and back and the whole base included.

Before we come, it helps to clear small items and ornaments from the floor and let us know about any heavy furniture. If you need a room back quickly, we will tell you before we leave when it is safe to walk on and when the furniture can go back.

For landlords and tenants

Handing back the keys or getting a property ready for new occupants? Carpets are the first thing anyone notices when they walk in, so a deep clean makes a big difference at check-out. For a full property, our team can carry out an end of tenancy clean covering the carpets, soft furnishings, hard floors and the rest of the property, ovens included. Every property is different, so there is no set price: we visit first and then give you a clear quote.

Rugs, sofas and mattresses in Guildford

Our rug cleaning starts from £50 depending on size, from modern synthetic rugs to wool and hand knotted pieces, using hot water extraction or a low moisture method for delicate fibres and dyes. We clean fabric and leather sofas and armchairs through our upholstery cleaning service, and mattresses from £40 for a single. Everything is cleaned in your home, so there is nothing to drop off or collect.

To keep things looking good for longer, ask about a soil protector such as Scotchgard after cleaning. For a sofa it is roughly £70 to £80, depending on size.

The benefits

Why Guildford homes book a professional clean

Colour brought back

Removing the dull film of ground-in soil often makes light carpets look years younger.

Cleaner air at home

Steam cleaning at 120°C deals with dust mites, bacteria and the allergens that settle deep in the pile.

Carpets protected

Grit wears fibres down from underneath. Taking it out slows the wear, so your carpets last longer.

One visit, everything done

Carpets, stairs, rugs, sofas and mattresses can all be cleaned on the same day, in your home.

FAQs

Carpet cleaning in Guildford: common questions

How much is carpet cleaning in Guildford?

Rooms are £45 each and stairs and landing are £45. A 2-bed house with stairs and landing is £170 and a 3-bed is £215. Rugs start from £50. The minimum charge for any job is £110, as we bring and set up the full equipment for every visit.

Do you travel to Guildford from Oxshott?

Yes. Guildford is a straight run down the A3 from our base in Oxshott, and we cover the town and surrounding villages, as well as nearby Godalming and Woking. Combining several rooms or items into one visit gives you the best value.

Is steam cleaning or hot water extraction better for carpets?

They are the same thing. Hot water extraction, often called steam cleaning, rinses the carpet with hot water at 120°C and extracts it straight back out with the dirt. We agitate the carpet with a brush first, so the solution reaches the soil instead of sitting on top.

Can you get my cream carpets clean again?

In most cases a deep clean makes a big improvement to light carpets, lifting traffic lanes and general dullness. Older stains that have changed the colour of the fibre may not come out completely, and we will tell you honestly before we start.

Do you do end of tenancy cleaning in Guildford?

Yes. Our team carries out end of tenancy cleans covering carpets, upholstery, hard floors and the rest of the property, including the oven. There is no set price: we visit first and then give you a quote. See our end of tenancy cleaning page.

How far ahead should I book?

As early as you can. We are often booked up ahead, so call John on 07584 551 784 for the next available date. We work Monday to Saturday, 8am to 5:30pm.

Do you clean wool carpets?

Yes. We are Woolsafe approved, with a Woolsafe Registered Inspector, and adjust our method to suit wool and other natural fibres.
