It’s been such a long time since I’ve sat down and found the time to write a new blog post. Our last post, ” A new adventure ” was back in 2022! Time has just flown by since, and our courses have come such a long way from there. We’re now on version Mk 8 of the course, just showing how many changes we’ve made since the original one
Back in 2022, myself and training partner Lee Breen from Fabricmaster Eastbourne, were somewhat dropped into the position of training, and back then it was something I’d never dreamed of doing, never mind still be doing nearly 3 years later. The response has been overwhelming from students and experienced cleaners. These guys and gals are spending their hard-earned money to come and sit and learn from us, which is something to this day I still don’t give myself credit [...]
Since the beginning of my cleaning career, I always wanted to learn as much as I could to ultimately offer the best cleaning experience to customers in Shropshire as it was woefully lacking. I already had a vast amount of experience in the carpet trade as a fitter and general carpet knowledge but upholstery had so many pitfalls and disasters waiting to trip the average cleaner up, I decided way back I had to become top of my game in this particular field of cleaning.

Something I found over the years was there was a very little experience within the industry for upholstery cleaning. I remember my 1st training courses thinking id never touch a sofa or fabric again for fear of total destruction! or sofas spontaneously combusting in front of my eyes and this [...]

I’m writing this for my lockdown headquarters!
The recent coronavirus outbreak has had a huge impact on our lives and highlighted the need for good sanitising practices for all businesses and the public, something most of us have taken for guaranteed for such a long time.
We have been trained in infection control for well over a year and always offered a niche service but it has always been a service with a niche market until now. The world has gone hygiene crazy rightly or wrongly and demand for disinfection and deep cleaning of offices, schools, homes etc is at an all-time high.
How can we helpJL Carpet Cleaning offers a professional disinfection service for Shropshire and surrounding areas. Our 2 step service involves all touchpoints cleaned and treated 1st for maximum coverage using a specialist disinfectant cleaner. An antimicrobial product is applied via a fogging machine which atomises the product into a fine [...]

With so many companies offering carpet and upholstery cleaning in Telford, Shrewsbury and Shropshire, it can be hard to figure out who to choose. We’ll admit we won’t be the cheapest carpet and upholstery cleaners. We don’t do £20 room offers and upholstery from £10 a seat or different types of cleaning. The costs of running a professional company mean we can’t compete with this type of price and to be honest we don’t want too.
At JL Carpet cleaning Jenny and myself believe what we offer is simple. You receive a 1st class service from myself and my wife and an unbeatable deep clean every time. With over 18 years in the carpet trade and 10 years as an installer, it allows me a unique view on your carpets [...]

As Shropshire’s qualified commercial cleaning specialists its always a pleasure to work for other local businesses within our great county.
We were contacted by David Austin to undertake a full deep clean of all their carpeted areas at their headquarters. The flooring was a variety of coverings from 15-year-old carpet tiles to bespoke twist pile carpets. After a full inspection and walkthrough, we offered David Austin a full extraction clean to all areas using our unique truck-mounted cleaning system. The system is installed in our new vehicle and has its own softened water supply and power. All waste from the clean is also collected back [...]
We get asked a lot why we charge more than other companies. What do we do different to others that makes us stand apart? Well apart from continuously updating our training, offering 5 star service and unbelievable results we follow our 7 point procedure for each clean for every customer. So no matter whether your having a small lounge doing to a large domestic property we treat all customers the same. Maybe this is what stands us apart.
Here’s our 7 point procedure
. Pre-survey to check for fibre identification, fitting, staining and soiling and any other requirements before work is carried out. (upholstery and leather may require further tests in determining suitability for cleaning)
2. Pre-vacuum the carpet with a commercial upright cleaner to remove dry soiling.
3. Treat any stains that need attention, then pre spray the carpet with the appropriate cleaning solution
4. Mechanically agitate the pre spray deep down into the carpet, this breaks [...]
