Same-week slots · Fully insured · Local Muswell Hill fitters · Fixed written pricesUpholstery cleaning for Muswell Hill (N10) households — 5,479 of them, 63% in flats. From £65 fixed, one technician with a portable extraction machine — the standard kit for London flats, where a truck-mount hose cannot reach a fourth floor Insured cleaners, fabric-matched products, and air movers left running until the piece is touch-dry.


Overview
Booked mostly by owner-occupier-led households around Alexandra Palace, upholstery cleaning here covers supply-free fitting from £65. With 63% of Muswell Hill's 5,479 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in N10 shape the slot length we hold.
How it works
Step 1
A hidden seam is tested for colour-fastness and shrinkage before the machine is switched on.
Step 2
Deep vacuum with an upholstery tool — most of what is in a London sofa is dry grit.
Step 3
Grease, food and body oils are treated individually and given dwell time.
Step 4
Hot-water extraction at controlled moisture, or a low-moisture pass on delicate fabrics.
Step 5
Pile groomed straight and air movers left running so nobody sits on a damp cushion.
Why choose us
One technician with a portable extraction machine — the standard kit for London flats, where a truck-mount hose cannot reach a fourth floor. Steep approach roads, tight parades with short loading bays and long garden paths.
Next-day availability in most postcodes; end-of-tenancy jobs prioritised around check-out dates. Alexandra Palace (Great Northern) is the nearest station, so a N10 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect with solid brick on the party and external walls — and lath and plaster over timber studs — where 57% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year in N10, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is which crumbles the key and drops the panel, over a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster — measured on the walk in from Alexandra Palace (Great Northern) rather than assumed from a map.
£1m public liability, WoolSafe-approved chemistry on natural fibres and COSHH sheets on the van for everything else.
Fixed prices
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Two-seat sofa | £65 | 45–60 min | Hot-water extraction with a hand tool, both faces of every cushion, plus the frame and skirt. |
| Three-seat sofa | £85 | 60–90 min | More surface and usually more soiling at the arms and headrest, where hair products and hands land. |
| Corner or L-shape sofa | £130 | 2 hrs | Priced per seat rather than per item, because a five-seat corner is genuinely two sofas' worth of fabric. |
| Armchair or dining chair (each) | £25 | 15–25 min | Booked alongside a sofa; on their own they are quoted against the £65 minimum visit. |
| Mattress clean and sanitise, double | £55 | 40 min | Extraction plus a dust-mite treatment, which is the reason most London flats book it at all. |

Scope
Constantine and Adriana did an amazing job cleaning. It was fast and they were very clean. Had a full house clean and and carpet clean and looks and smells great. Very friendly and gave great communication
I used Hello services after having flat renovated before moving in. Booking was easy and I needed to change the booking a couple of times as work had not finished. Jose was punctual, polite and friendly. He paid great attention to detail and persisted in getting some stains out of my carpets.Tge standard of cleaning… Read in full →
Had an above and beyond experience with our cleaners, Diana and Alex. They were honest, professional, friendly, and did an amazing job with what they were tasked with. When moving house I’d always assume that there would be the odd cupboard or bathroom that would be filthy, but not an entire 4 bedroom house like… Read in full →
