When booking a professional carpet cleaning service, most people want to know exactly what they’re paying for. One of the most common concerns is whether the final price will include any hidden fees or surprise charges. Here’s what to look out for — and how to avoid overpaying.
What’s Usually Included in a Standard Carpet Cleaning Quote?
A trustworthy carpet cleaning company should provide a clear, itemised quote that includes:
- The size or number of rooms to be cleaned
- The method used (e.g. steam or dry cleaning)
- Labour, equipment, and cleaning solutions
- Travel or call-out fees (if any)
- VAT (if applicable — check if it’s included)
Reputable companies will usually include all essential costs in the original quote, especially for residential clients.
Common Hidden Fees to Watch Out For
Not all companies are transparent. Some may offer low headline prices but then charge extra for:
- Stain removal (especially for tough or pet-related stains)
- High-traffic area treatments
- Deodorising or protective finishes
- Furniture moving
- Out-of-hours or weekend appointments
- Parking fees if on-site parking is unavailable
Before confirming a booking, always ask for a full breakdown in writing.
