Local National Business of the Year, this has now become Which Trusted Trader, for my professional, value for money service and for giving my customers the best possible cleaning results. Since then I have received nearly 400 first class reviews on the trustedtrader.which.co.uk site. I also have nearly 400 first class reviews on Checkatrade.com This is something that I take great pride in that customers actually take time and effort to post a review for the quality of service that I provide. I cover most of North, North West and North East London, extending into South Hertfordshire and bordering Essex
I will usually call and give you a no obligation, free quotation. However sometimes it is something I can do over the phone especially if distance is involved I can offer an estimate and if this is accepted I will measure on arrival and give a firm price.

Once again I used Advanced Clean and was provided again with a first class service. John cleaned a lots of carpets in rooms/hallways/stairs, as well as rugs and some chairs. John arrives promptly, and is a real professional, as well as being a thoroughly pleasant chap! Would strongly recommend and I sure will use again!

My daughter managed to get marker pen over our light-coloured living room carpet. I like to keep my house pristine and this certainly made me feel stressed! I contacted John and he responded very promptly. Within 48 hours he had come to our property, and successfully removed the marks. A great service and I will always turn to him in the future for carpet and upholstery cleaning services.

John cleaned our sofas and a thick rug in November 2025. He did a great job on short notice for a very reasonable price. The rug in particular was particularly grubby (having had a dog lie on it for years!) and it looks a lot better.

John cleaned our carpets for us after building work. He was very easy to work with, and open and upfront about which stains might be lifted out of our very old and well worn carpet. We were working to quite tight timescales and John was very helpful in finding a time that worked for us. The service, quality and value were all great. John talked us through exactly what he was doing, and completed the job really neatly and our carpet now looks lovely - a huge improvement! Thank you!

I was very impressed with Advanced Clean's service. I received a response within 2 hours of reaching out on a Saturday, followed by a clear call with John and a prompt quote. My carpet was cleaned within 3 days of my initial inquiry — fast, professional, and highly efficient service. John was friendly, professional, and clear in setting expectations. Despite some tough stains, the carpet came out looking nearly brand new. As this is a rental property, the clean saved me the cost of replacement. Thank you, John, for your helpfulness and your wonderful attitude toward work and people engagement.

The carpet clean was carried out after John visited my home to provide a quote for the work to be carried out. The quote was clear and also competitive for the work involved as my carpets and rugs needed a thorough clean. John arrived on time and was helpful too. He carried his carpet cleaning equipment carefully without damaging any paintwork etc. The work was carried out efficiently and I was delighted with the results of the carpet clean in my flat. I would recommend John as he takes pride in his work and I was delighted with the work that he carried out.

John came in to clean the through lounge and the stairs. The stairs in particular were bad. John came in on time and did an excellent job with the minimum of fuss. The stairs in particular, considering their state, came up like new. An excellent job and I would recommend.

We had our carpets and sofas cleaned by John, and the service was absolutely fantastic! He was professional, friendly, and extremely thorough. The attention to detail really showed — our carpets look fresh and our sofas feel like new again. Everything was done with great care and efficiency. I would highly recommend his services to anyone looking for high-quality carpet and upholstery cleaning.

I've used John before. I wanted all rooms, bar kitchen and bathroom cleaned. Stayed almost the entire day to get the job done. He managed to remove melted rubber from the carpet (VHS tape lodged in machine - me being too clever!). He tried to fix the burnt carpet (candles, since disposed of). He even offered to fix the broken rubber seal at front door. Truly appreciated his valiant efforts. Cleaned the front room sofa and thoroughly cleaned all of the rooms including moving around furniture to gain better access. His kit is professional grade and his knowledge of cleaning solvents 2nd to none! Worth everypenny!

John arrived on time at 8.00 am. and worked tirelessly for most of the day with only a few small breaks for refreshment. He completed cleaning our three piece suite then our lounge carpet and also our hall carpet which he did as an extra with no charge. All work was carried out in a very professional manner to a very high standard including his good humour. We are very happy to recommend John.

John made a superb job of cleaning carpets which had been heavily stained and marked over the years. They now look fantastic and all the stains are gone. One of our neighbours has already asked for a quote! John sent the written quote very promptly after viewing the job and communicated well.

Once again I have found Advanced Clean to provide our church with a first class service. Four carpets of varying size were cleaned and some additional hard surface areas. In addition to the successful removal of obstinate stains some extra mats were cleaned free of charge. I would certainly recommend this business.

John cleaned our carpets and upholstery a few years ago so, when we recently had a badly stained carpet, we had no hesitation in asking him back. As before he did an excellent job. He removed all the stains and also made some old rugs look brighter and fresher. John is pleasant to have in the house and doesn't make promises he can't keep.

Not too good carpet cleaning method.

I did not like the cleaning of my carpet. The main purpose to hire Advanced clean is to get rid of stains. Unfortunately, it is not up to the mark, as mentioned in most of the reviews. Nothing much changed with the looks of carpet, lots of dark patches visible. It was not quite impressive for the price of £125 to clean the area of the living room and the passage.

The trader replied (on 04/06/2025)
Thank you for your feedback. I wanted to take a moment to respond and provide some context regarding the recent carpet cleaning service. As you had mentioned the urgency of having your living room and short hallway cleaned in order to get your home back to normal, I made arrangements to travel over to you on a Bank Holiday to accommodate your request. Upon arrival, it was clear that the carpet was in a sorry condition that really needed replacing. The layout of the downstairs area with the kitchen positioned at the front naturally results in significant foot traffic carrying dirt from the kitchen through the hallway and into the living room. As discussed on the day, I committed to doing my absolute best and used a double strength pre-spray, which I thoroughly brushed into the carpet fibres. The carpet was then hot water extracted, with a quality rinsing agent in the solution tank. I also took the time to show you the waste water during the process, which clearly indicated the extent of the soiling removed. You observed the cleaning throughout, and I appreciated your interest and engagement in the process. As outlined in the terms and conditions shared with your quotation, stain and marking removal cannot be guaranteed, especially with older or heavily worn carpets. But, please rest assured that I always strive to achieve the best possible results for my customers. In over fifteen years of providing carpet cleaning services, I have very rarely received negative feedback.

John has cleaned our fitted carpets, rugs and a sofa twice. On both occasions he turned up promptly and worked hard to complete the job in a day. He explains what is achievable (eg dark marks on fitted carpets around skirting boards are pretty much permanent), uses quality products and does a great job. He's also a pleasure to have around, with a good sideline in conversation. His charges seem reasonable and there are no hidden extras.
