What happens during our 5-step carpet clean?

1.

Pre inspection

We walk with you through the areas you would like cleaned, identifying fibre types (wool vs synthetic) and noting specific high-traffic areas or pet spots.

2.

Dry soil removal

Commercial-grade dry vacuuming removes loose sand, silica, and hair before moisture is introduced.

3.

Soil suspension

We apply eco-friendly, pH-balanced pre-sprays that break down oils and stubborn dirt embedded deep within the pile.

4.

Stain treatments & soil extraction 

Targeted stain chemistry followed by truck-mounted steam cleaning lifts dirt and moisture, leaving carpets deep-cleaned and only damp.

5.

Pile grooming

We groom the carpet pile to align fibres, speed up drying, and leave a uniform, refreshed finish.

The science of a better clean

Nothing proves the value of a professional clean better than a before-and-after. Our heavy-duty steam cleaning process is everything a proper carpet clean should be.

The abrasive reality

Abrasive grit extraction Christchurch carpet cleaning

Under the microscope: This is the abrasive silica your domestic vacuum leaves behind. Without industrial dry-soil extraction, this grit scores the carpet's cuticle like sandpaper.

The molecular unlock

The Molecular Unlock: We match our chemistry to the specific pH of the spill, unlocking the bond to the fibre without stripping the original dye.

Advanced Carpet Cleaning FAQs


  • How long has Advanced Carpet Cleaning been operating?

    Advanced Carpet Cleaning has been proudly family-owned and locally operated in Christchurch since 1994, providing over 30 years of trusted carpet, upholstery, and pest management across Canterbury.

  • How much does carpet cleaning cost in Christchurch?

    Carpet cleaning costs in Christchurch generally depend on the rooms to be cleaned, total square metreage, and specific stain or pest treatments required. We provide transparent, upfront quotes with no hidden fees. Contact our team today for a phone estimate or a quote visit. 

  • What areas of Christchurch do you service?

    We regularly service all Christchurch city suburbs and surrounding Canterbury areas by arrangement, including Avonhead, Burnside, Cashmere, Fendalton, Heathcote, Halswell, Huntsbury, Ilam,  Merivale, Papanui, Parklands, St Albans, Redliffs, Riccarton, Sumner, and Westmorland—and everywhere in between! 

  • How do I pay for your carpet cleaning services?

    We make payments easy with mobile EFTPOS available on-site in all our service vans. You can use debit or credit cards, and we also accept direct online bank transfers. Non-PayWave debit card transactions are free, and a standard bank surcharge applies to PayWave and credit card payments.

  • How long does it take for carpets to dry?

    Most carpets are dry—or well on their way—within 6 hours after a thorough steam clean. Drying times vary based on whether a light or heavy clean was required, fibre type, household ventilation, and indoor temperature.

  • Do you clean carpets for end-of-tenancy requirements?

    Yes, we provide specialised end-of-tenancy carpet cleaning and pest control services designed to satisfy property manager checklists and help secure your bond refund. We supply an official itemised receipt upon completion.

  • Can you remove pet urine smells?

    We specialise in pet stain and odour removal. Effectively treating pet urine stains and odours requires more than a standard clean; and deodorisers will only mask the smell. We treat the urine locations with commercial-grade solutions to neutralise the bacteria and uric acid salts and lighten stains. Some pet stains and some pet odours persist despite treatments. 

  • Can you remove tough stains like red wine and coffee?

    We love the challenge of treating stubborn stains like red wine, coffee, tea, and pet accidents. While no professional cleaner would guarantee 100% removal of every historic stain without risking fibre damage, our precision chemistry achieves the best possible restorative results.
