Prices
Priced per room, agreed on the phone and not changed on the doorstep. A bedroom is £36, a living room £43. Rugs, sofas and mattresses can join the same visit, because the machine is already in the house.

What we get called out for
Rooms and hallways
Hot water extraction, walk-on dry in a couple of hours. Traffic lanes are the usual reason we are rung.
Stairs and landings
The hardest-worked carpet in the house, done tread by tread with a hand tool.
Rugs
Cleaned flat on a groundsheet, dyes tested first. Delicate fibres get a low-moisture clean.
Sofas and chairs
Upholstery tool at lower pressure, fabric code checked before anything gets wet.
Working in Muswell Hill
Muswell Hill is almost a single-period suburb: the bulk of it went up between 1896 and 1914 on the old Tottenham Wood estates, mostly by the developer James Edmondson, which is why the terraces and semis along Queens Avenue, Grand Avenue and Dukes Avenue read as one continuous Edwardian set piece. The typical property is a wide bay-fronted house with high ceilings, original pine floorboards, deep skirtings and a long hall, and a very large share of them have been split horizontally into upper and lower maisonettes rather than proper purpose-built flats. Bigger detached villas sit along Colney Hatch Lane and Alexandra Park Road with views towards the palace, and there is very little postwar or new-build stock inside the conservation area boundary.
The main Muswell Hill CPZ runs Monday to Friday 8am to 6.30pm at £2.60 an hour, but Muswell Hill West is controlled only from 10am to 2pm Monday to Friday, so a van that is legal on one side of the Broadway can be ticketed on the other.
Haringey sells one-day tradesperson permits, which is the practical answer for a full-house carpet job here because there is no meter-free street within reasonable hose distance of the Broadway.
Thames Water supplies N10 at roughly 300 ppm calcium carbonate, so wool and wool-mix carpets go stiff and dull if they are rinsed and left without a softened or acidified final pass.
The water here is hard, which makes no difference to the extraction rinse. What slows drying in these houses is closed trickle vents, so we open windows while we work.
Areas we cover
We work across Muswell Hill and the streets around it. These are the areas we get to most.
Fortis Green
N2. Directly west along Fortis Green road, sharing the same Edwardian building phase and its own conservation area.
Highgate
N6. South-west across Highgate Wood and Queen's Wood, and the location of the nearest Underground station.
Crouch End
N8. South-east down Muswell Hill Road and Park Road, the next hilltop shopping centre with no tube of its own either.
Alexandra Park
N22. East of the Broadway, the streets wrapped round the palace grounds and Alexandra Palace station.
East Finchley
N2. North-west along Fortis Green, on the Northern line and the closest real tube access for N10 households.
Hornsey
N8. Downhill to the east, lower-lying Victorian terraces along the New River and Turnpike Lane approach.
