London Carpet Cleaning cleans carpets, sofas and rugs across Tudor, KT2, from £36 a room and touch-dry in 1 to 2 hours. Fixed prices, no call-out fee, and a re-clean guarantee on every job. We have worked these North Kingston streets since 2009, from the riverside houses on Lower Ham Road to the mock-Tudor estate behind Richmond Road.
What Tudor homes are like
Tudor is the North Kingston ward between Richmond Road and the Thames, and it takes its name from the houses, not the other way round. The bulk of it is the Tudor Estate, built by local builder G T Crouch in the 1930s and sold then as the Richmond Park Estate with prices from £675. Those mock-Tudor semis, with their leaded bays, half-timbered gables and original staircases, set the tone along Tudor Drive, Dukes Avenue and Craig Road. They are well looked-after family homes, often owned for decades, and a carpet down that long shows its wear in the same lanes.
The edges of the ward read differently. Down on Lower Ham Road by Canbury Gardens you get a run of finer three-storey Victorian veranda houses and some chalet-style riverside homes, a few of them split into flats. Towards Richmond the streets open out to Ham Common and the wide grass of Ham Lands. Tiffin Girls’ School, the old Tudor School, presents its long frontage to Richmond Road, with the village-feel fire station close by. Hampton Wick station sits just over the river and Kingston station a short way the other side, so the work runs from a settled family lounge to the odd let near the line.
What we see across Tudor
The job we are asked about most here is the staircase in the 1930s houses. The Tudor semis keep their original stairs, and a carpeted flight up to two and three storeys is where the daily traffic concentrates and the pile goes flat and grey down the middle. We clean those in place by hot-water extraction and have them touch-dry within an hour or two. The other steady stream is the park and river factor. Mud off Ham Lands, Canbury Gardens and the towpath comes back on boots and paws, fine and dark, and works into the base of a pale wool long before the room looks dirty.
One honest note about that. A fresh patch of park mud pre-treats and lifts well, and most marks come up better than people expect. A deep stain ground into a light wool carpet over a whole winter we can usually lighten and brighten rather than lift out completely, and we say that at the door instead of promising the earth. The riverside homes nearest the water can also hold damp in the air, so we keep the moisture low on those.

Carpet, upholstery and rug cleaning in Tudor
We clean fitted carpets and stairs by hot-water extraction, which pulls the grit out of the base of the pile, and we match the water to the fibre so the wool in the older estate homes is cleaned low-moisture while a tougher synthetic takes a deeper hot rinse. We also clean sofas and dining chairs, take wool pieces away for proper rug cleaning with free collection, and freshen curtains. For nearby riverside streets see our Canbury carpet cleaning page, and for the rest of the borough our Kingston upon Thames page.
Tudor questions, answered
Which streets and postcodes do you cover?
The whole of the Tudor ward in KT2, from Richmond Road and the Tudor Drive estate across to Lower Ham Road, Canbury Gardens and the river, and out towards Ham Common. We also reach the Hampton Wick side of KT1 just over the bridge. There is no call-out fee wherever you are in North Kingston.
Where will the van park on the estate roads?
Most of the Tudor streets have driveways or kerbside space and parking is easier here than in central Kingston, so the van usually sits close. On the tighter riverside stretches near Lower Ham Road we carry a long hose reach instead. Tell us your road when you book and we sort access before the day.
Can you clean wool carpet in a 1930s Tudor house safely?
Yes, and it is routine for us in this ward. Wool needs less water and a gentle rinse so it does not shrink or brown, so we clean it low-moisture and dry it back out fully. The original staircases in these houses get the same care, cleaned in place so the boards underneath stay dry and the fixings hold.
How long until the carpet is dry?
Most carpets are touch-dry in 1 to 2 hours, because we extract the water back out rather than leaving it sitting in the pile. The riverside homes that hold a bit more damp in the air we clean drier still. Open a window or put the heating on low and the room is back in normal use the same day.
Every clean in Tudor is backed by our re-clean guarantee: if a spot comes back, so do we, at no charge. We are fully insured, our cleaners are DBS-checked, and we have cleaned carpets across North Kingston and the rest of the borough since 2009.
