London Carpet Cleaning covers all of Barnet, Finchley and Golders Green up to Edgware, Mill Hill and High Barnet, from £36 a room and carpets dry within 6 to 7 hours. Barnet stretches from Finchley and Golders Green up to High Barnet and Edgware. It is mostly 1930s semis, mock-Tudor houses with long gardens, and Edwardian conversions around East Finchley and Hendon.
Wool stair carpets are common in Barnet semis. We clean them with low moisture. They take up to 6 to 7 hours to dry, and until then the family can use the stairs carefully in socks. Every clean is guaranteed, most carpets are dry within 6 to 7 hours, and there is no call-out fee anywhere in Barnet.
Barnet houses, and the wool that fills them
Barnet is the biggest borough by population and it feels it, mile after mile of 1930s semis, mock-Tudor houses with long gardens, and Edwardian conversions around Finchley and Hendon. The carpet here is family carpet in large rooms, and a great deal of it is wool that has been down for decades, because good wool in a well-kept Barnet house lasts a very long time. Out towards Totteridge and Mill Hill the houses grow larger again, and the wool grows better with them.
We have cleaned in this corner of north-west London long enough to work to its calendar. Around the Golders Green, Hendon and Edgware streets we do not book Saturday jobs, and we plan any Friday work to finish in good time, because that is how the neighbourhood runs. Spring is our busiest stretch here by a distance: a great many households give the whole home a deep clean before Passover, and the carpets are part of that, so a March or April slot is worth booking a few weeks ahead.
One honest warning about the old wool, because it catches people out. If a wool carpet has thin or bare patches in the quiet corners, under a bed or behind a sofa, that is usually carpet moth, larvae that eat the wool, rather than wear or dirt. A clean freshens the whole carpet and clears the eggs and larvae we can reach, but it cannot grow the eaten pile back. We will tell you on sight whether you are looking at soiling, which lifts, or moth damage, which stays. Parking is rarely an issue out here, most houses have a drive, and there is no call-out fee in any Barnet postcode.

Barnet questions, answered
Do you work on Saturdays in Golders Green or Hendon?
No. We keep Saturdays free across the Jewish neighbourhoods of Barnet and finish any Friday job in good time, because that is how the area runs. We are glad to come any other day, and early in the week is usually the easiest time to get the slot you want.
Can you clean the carpets before Passover?
Yes, and it is our busiest stretch in Barnet, so book early. Spring fills up fast with pre-Passover cleaning across Golders Green, Hendon and Edgware. Tell us your date when you call and we will hold a slot in good time, rather than leaving it to the last week before the festival.
Our old wool carpet has bare patches in the corners. Can you fix that?
We can clean it beautifully, but bare patches in quiet corners are usually carpet moth, larvae eating the wool, which is damage rather than dirt. A clean freshens the carpet and clears the eggs and larvae we can reach; it cannot regrow the eaten pile. We tell you honestly on sight which one you have.
Which parts of Barnet do you cover?
All of it: Finchley in N2, N3 and N12, Golders Green in NW11, Hendon in NW4, Mill Hill in NW7, Colindale in NW9, Edgware in HA8, Friern Barnet in N11, Whetstone and Totteridge in N20, and High and New Barnet in EN5 and EN4. The fixed prices are the same throughout.
Can you clean a large house full of wool in one visit?
Yes, that is the typical Barnet booking. We price the whole house, hall, stairs, landing and the main rooms, as one fixed quote, clean it low-moisture so the wool cannot shrink, and have the first rooms dry before we finish the last. The bigger Totteridge and Mill Hill houses are no trouble.
