Terraces, students and a wet climate

Cathays and Roath student houses have carpeted bedrooms, stairs and lounges that take a lot of wear over the academic year, and carpet cleaning is often part of the end-of-June move-out. Family homes in Llandaff, Whitchurch, Rhiwbina and Penarth usually need stairs, landings and lounges done every year or so.

Cardiff's wet weather means muddy footprints and slower drying. Good extraction and ventilation afterwards keep drying times reasonable.

Flats in Cardiff Bay more often have hard floors, with rugs and upholstered sofas the main items to clean.

Renting in Wales

Under Welsh rules, landlords can't charge contract-holders for professional cleaning, but carpets should be returned as clean as they were at the start. Many tenants book a carpet clean to be sure – see whether tenants have to clean carpets and end of tenancy cleaning in Cardiff.

Sofas and rugs

Upholstery cleaning is often booked with carpets. Check your sofa's cleaning code first. Rugs can be cleaned in place or collected for workshop cleaning – see how to clean a rug.

Wales has high rainfall, particularly in the valleys and uplands, so damp and mould around windows and in bathrooms are frequent cleaning jobs. Terraced streets, student housing in Cardiff and Swansea and holiday lets along the coast all shape local demand, from end of tenancy cleans to changeover cleaning.
