Breathe New Life into Your Home with Expert Steam Cleaning in Edinburgh.
If your carpets or soft furnishings are starting to look a little tired, it might be time to consider professional steam cleaning. In Edinburgh, Clarks Carpet Care has earned an exceptional reputation for restoring carpets, rugs, and upholstery to a clean, fresh condition using industry-leading equipment and techniques. More than just a surface clean, our expert service helps maintain a healthy home while extending the lifespan of your furnishings.
What Is Steam Cleaning and Why Does It Work?
Steam cleaning, often referred to as hot water extraction, is one of the most effective and widely recommended methods for deep-cleaning carpets and upholstery. The process involves applying a fine mist of heated water, combined with specialist cleaning solutions, deep into the fabric. This loosens dirt, stains, allergens, and odours, which are then extracted using high-powered machinery.
Unlike simple vacuuming or home cleaning kits, our service doesn’t just clean what’s visible – it targets the build-up of grime, bacteria, and pollutants embedded deep within the fibres. This method is not only more hygienic but also environmentally friendly, as it avoids the use of harsh chemicals and minimises water waste.

Upholstery Steam Cleaning That Revives and Refreshes
Your sofa, armchairs, and dining chairs all bear the brunt of daily life – from food and drink spills to pet hair and body oils. Over time, even high-quality furnishings can start to lose their appeal. Steam cleaning lifts the layers of everyday grime that dull your upholstery and brings back colour, softness, and freshness.
Whether your furniture is made of delicate materials like velvet, viscose, cotton or wool, or tougher synthetic blends, we have the knowledge and skill to clean it safely and thoroughly. We always test and assess fabrics before starting, so there’s no risk of shrinking, fading, or damage.
Optional Extras for Long-Lasting Results
Want to protect your freshly cleaned upholstery for longer? Our Clean & Protect service adds a protective shield to help guard against future stains and spills. It’s an ideal option for busy households, families with children, or homes with pets.
For those who want the ultimate peace of mind, our Healthy Home package includes biological sanitising treatments. These neutralise bacteria, allergens, and odours – perfect if you suffer from allergies or want to maintain a hygienic environment for your family.
