Signs Your Carpet Needs Cleaning
What We Clean
Upholstery Cleaning
Your lounge suite and furniture accumulate years of dust, skin cells, pet hair and bacteria deep in the fabric — long before any visible soiling appears. Professional upholstery cleaning removes what you can't see and refreshes what you can.
We assess the fabric type before cleaning — different materials require different treatments. All cleaning solutions are eco-friendly and safe for families and pets.
- Removes stains, odours and allergens
- Safe for all fabric types
- Extends the life of your furniture
- Dries within a few hours
Mattress Cleaning
The average mattress harbours millions of dust mites, dead skin cells, sweat residue and bacteria. Cape Town's winter humidity creates ideal conditions for dust mite growth — making regular mattress cleaning especially important for Western Cape families.
Our hot water extraction process sanitises and deodorises your mattress, removing biological matter from deep in the fibres. Recommended at least once a year — more often for allergy or asthma sufferers.
- Removes dust mites, bacteria and allergens
- Eliminates odours at the source
- Safe for all mattress types
- Dries within 4–6 hours
- Cost-effective when combined with carpet cleaning
How Often to Clean
Why Pet Odours Keep Returning
Supermarket sprays only mask odours — they don't remove the uric acid crystals that cause them. When humidity rises, those crystals reactivate and the smell returns.
Our professional enzyme treatments break down the crystals permanently, eliminating the odour at a molecular level — not just covering it up.
Pet Stain & Odour Removal
Pet stains and odours are one of the most common and persistent carpet problems. Standard cleaning often fails because the uric acid in pet urine crystallises in the carpet backing — beyond where normal cleaning reaches.
We use professional enzyme treatments that break down the odour at the source, combined with hot water extraction to remove all residue from the pile and backing.
- Permanent odour removal — not just masking
- Works on carpets, sofas and mattresses
- Safe for pets and children
- Treats stains and discolouration
Commercial & Office Cleaning
High-traffic office carpets and commercial spaces require more frequent cleaning than residential properties. Dirt and grit in commercial carpet fibres causes rapid wear — regular cleaning significantly extends carpet life and maintains a professional appearance.
We work after hours and on weekends to minimise disruption to your business. All work is supervised by Meyer personally — no contractors or unsupervised staff.
- After-hours and weekend scheduling available
- Office carpets, reception areas and boardrooms
- Office chairs and commercial upholstery
- Ozone treatment for odour elimination
- W.E.E. Level 12 compliant

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does carpet cleaning take?
A typical home with 3 carpets and a lounge suite takes roughly 1.5 to 2 hours depending on the size, condition and any stain removal required. Larger homes or heavily soiled carpets take longer. Meyer will give you a realistic time estimate when you book.
How long do carpets take to dry?
Under normal conditions carpets dry in 1 to 2 hours. This depends on carpet type, room ventilation and humidity. Cape Town's winter humidity can extend drying time slightly — opening windows after cleaning speeds things up considerably.
Are your cleaning chemicals safe for children and pets?
Yes. We use eco-friendly, non-toxic cleaning solutions that are safe for babies, children, pets and allergy sufferers. Once the carpet is dry your household can use the area as normal. We have been using and perfecting this chemical range for over 24 years.
How much does carpet cleaning cost in Cape Town?
We work on a sliding scale — the more items you have cleaned in one visit, the cheaper per item. The minimum call-out fee is R650. Call Meyer on 082 321 8196 for a free, no-obligation quote specific to your home or office.
Can you remove all stains?
About 90% of stains can be removed with the right chemicals and treatment. The key factor is time — the longer a stain is left untreated, the harder it becomes to remove. Old, set-in stains may not fully disappear but are usually significantly improved. Wine, coffee, pet stains and mud all respond well to professional treatment.
Do I need to move furniture before you arrive?
Small loose items should be removed from the room for quicker cleaning. Moving larger furniture is optional — Meyer can work around most furniture or assist with moving lighter pieces. Heavy items like beds and wardrobes can stay in place.
How often should I clean my carpets?
For a typical Cape Town home, every 12 to 18 months is recommended. Homes with children or pets should clean every 6 to 12 months. Allergy and asthma sufferers benefit from cleaning every 3 to 6 months. Cape Town's coastal dust and south-easter wind mean carpets soil faster here than in drier inland cities.
