Your Guide to Fair Pricing & Value in Carpet Cleaning
If you're considering getting your carpets professionally cleaned, you're probably wondering: how much should it cost to clean a carpet? With so many providers and packages on the market, it’s important to know what’s a fair price — and what you’re really getting for your money.
At A1 Carpet Cleaning Perth, we believe in transparent pricing, reliable service, and delivering results that make your home or business feel refreshed.
Average Cost of Carpet Cleaning in Australia
For most homes, you can expect to pay anywhere from $30 to $50 per room. Many professional carpet cleaners offer bundled rates such as:
- 3 rooms for around $90–$120
- 5 rooms from $150–$200
- Whole-house packages from $180 upwards
The final cost depends on the size of the rooms, the condition of the carpet, and any additional treatments required (such as stain removal or deodorising).
What’s Included in a Typical Carpet Cleaning Service?
A standard professional carpet cleaning job should include:
- Pre-inspection and assessment
- Pre-vacuuming (in some cases)
- Pre-spray to loosen dirt and oils
- Steam or dry cleaning of the carpet
- Spot/stain treatment
- Deodorising
At A1 Carpet Cleaning, we go the extra mile to make sure no detail is overlooked.
Factors That Can Influence Price
While the average cost per room provides a starting point, here are some variables that affect your final bill:
1. Carpet Size & Number of Rooms
Naturally, more rooms or larger floor areas mean higher costs. However, many companies (including us!) offer multi-room discounts.
2. Stain Severity or Pet Odours
Heavy staining, urine smells, or pet hair may require specialised treatments that add to the base cost.
3. Cleaning Method
Steam cleaning (hot water extraction) is often more thorough and may cost slightly more than dry cleaning, but it delivers deeper, longer-lasting results.
4. Furniture Moving
Some services charge extra if furniture needs to be moved before cleaning. Always ask what’s included in your quote.
How to Know You’re Getting Good Value
You don’t want the cheapest job — you want the best value. A high-quality clean from a trusted professional should leave your carpets:
- Visibly cleaner and brighter
- Free from embedded dirt and allergens
- Smelling fresh and deodorised
- Quick to dry, with minimal disruption
At A1 Carpet Cleaning Perth, we balance affordability with exceptional results — using powerful equipment, eco-friendly products, and skilled technicians.
