Factors That Influence Our Pricing
1. Carpet Material and Construction
Different carpet materials require specialized cleaning approaches. Synthetic carpets like nylon and polyester are generally more affordable to clean, while natural fibers such as wool, silk, or cotton require gentle, specialized treatment that may increase costs. Hand-woven or antique rugs demand expert handling and premium cleaning solutions.
2. Level of Soiling and Stains
The condition of your carpet significantly impacts pricing. Light maintenance cleaning falls within our standard rates, while heavily soiled carpets or those with stubborn stains require additional time, specialized equipment, and stronger cleaning solutions. Pet stains, wine spills, and grease marks often need pre-treatment, which is reflected in our pricing.
3. Size and Accessibility
Larger areas naturally cost more due to increased labor time and cleaning solution usage. However, we offer economies of scale for bigger projects. Accessibility also matters – ground floor locations are easier to service than upper floors without elevators, and furniture moving requirements can affect the final cost.
4. Location Within Nairobi
Our base rates apply to most areas within Nairobi, including Westlands, Karen, Kilimani, and Lavington. However, locations outside the main city areas or those requiring longer travel times may incur additional transportation charges of KES 500-1,500 depending on distance.
5. Service Type Selected
We offer three main service levels: Standard cleaning suitable for regular maintenance, Deep cleaning for heavily soiled carpets or annual deep cleans, and Stain treatment for specific problem areas. Each service level uses different equipment, techniques, and time investments.
Additional Services and Add-ons
Beyond basic carpet cleaning, we offer several complementary services that can be bundled for cost savings:
- Scotchgard Protection: KES 50-80 per square meter
- Deodorizing Treatment: KES 30-50 per square meter
- Sanitization Service: KES 40-70 per square meter
