These Terms and Conditions set out the basis on which Carpet Cleaning Enfield provides carpet and related cleaning services within its service area. By making a booking, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions. If you do not agree with any part of these terms, you should not proceed with a booking.

1. Definitions

In these Terms and Conditions, the following definitions apply:

Customer means the person, firm, or company requesting or receiving services from Carpet Cleaning Enfield.

Company means the carpet cleaning business trading under the name Carpet Cleaning Enfield.

Services means any carpet, rug, upholstery, mattress, or related cleaning services provided by the Company, as well as any ancillary services agreed with the Customer.

Booking means a confirmed appointment for the provision of Services by the Company to the Customer.

2. Scope of Services

The Company provides carpet and related cleaning services within its defined service area, including properties situated in and around Enfield. The precise services to be provided will be agreed at the time of booking and confirmed in the booking confirmation.

Services may include, but are not limited to, hot water extraction cleaning, low moisture cleaning, spot and stain treatment, deodorising, and other specialist treatments where offered. The Company will use professional equipment and cleaning agents suitable for the type of carpet or fabric, as assessed by its technicians.

The Company reserves the right to decline or discontinue the provision of Services if, in its reasonable opinion, the Premises are unsafe, access is unduly restricted, or conditions are such that services cannot be carried out to a reasonable professional standard.

3. Booking Process

Bookings can be requested by the Customer through the Company’s accepted communication channels. A booking is only confirmed when the Company has accepted the request and provided a date, time window, and indicative or fixed price, as applicable.

The Customer must provide accurate information regarding the Premises and the areas or items to be cleaned. This includes, where relevant, the approximate size of the areas, type of flooring or fabric, level of soiling, and any particular stains, damage, or concerns. Failure to provide accurate information may result in additional charges or the inability to complete the Services within the agreed time.

The Company may require a deposit or pre-authorisation at the time of booking. If a deposit is required, the booking will not be considered confirmed until the deposit has been received by the Company.

The Customer is responsible for ensuring that an adult with authority to grant access and agree to any reasonable variations to the Services is present at the Premises during the appointment, unless otherwise agreed in advance.

4. Access to the Premises

The Customer must ensure safe and reasonable access to the Premises at the agreed time. This includes arranging parking or advising the Company in advance if parking restrictions apply. Any parking charges or permits required for the technician to carry out the Services shall be the responsibility of the Customer and may be added to the final invoice.

The Customer shall ensure that corridors, stairways, and access routes are clear, and that any security systems, gates, or entry codes are arranged to allow timely access. If the technician is unable to gain access within a reasonable period after arrival, the Company may treat the appointment as a late cancellation and may charge a fee as set out in the cancellation section of these terms.

5. Customer Responsibilities

The Customer is responsible for:

Ensuring that all areas to be cleaned are reasonably clear of small items, clutter, and fragile objects. The technician may move light furniture at their discretion but is not obliged to move heavy, delicate, or valuable items.

Securing valuables, breakables, and personal items prior to the appointment.

Informing the Company of any existing damage, wear, discolouration, or previous treatments to carpets or fabrics that may affect the outcome of the Services.

Ensuring that electricity and water are available at the Premises throughout the appointment, where required for the Services.

Keeping children and pets away from the work area for safety and for the duration recommended by the technician.

6. Prices, Quotations, and Estimates

The Company may provide prices based on room size, item type, or an overall estimate. All prices are stated in pounds sterling and may be subject to applicable taxes or surcharges where required by law.

Any quotation or estimate is based on the information provided by the Customer at the time of booking. If, upon arrival, the technician finds that the Premises or items differ substantially from the description, the Company reserves the right to revise the price or to refuse to carry out the Services. In such cases, a call-out or cancellation fee may apply.

Unless otherwise agreed, prices do not include the moving of heavy furniture, specialist stain removal beyond standard treatments, or repair of damage. Additional services will be agreed in advance and may incur separate charges.

7. Payments

Payment is due in full upon completion of the Services, unless alternative arrangements have been agreed in writing in advance. The Company accepts such payment methods as are communicated to the Customer prior to or at the time of the appointment.

For commercial Customers or account Customers, payment terms shall be as agreed in writing between the parties. Where payment terms are extended, the Company reserves the right to charge interest on any overdue sums in accordance with applicable law.

If a deposit has been taken, it will be deducted from the final amount payable. Where the Customer fails to make payment when due, the Company may suspend or refuse further Services and may pursue recovery of the outstanding amount, including any reasonable costs of collection.

8. Cancellations, Rescheduling, and No-Show

The Customer may cancel or reschedule a booking by giving the Company reasonable notice in advance of the scheduled appointment time. The minimum notice period and any applicable cancellation charges will be communicated to the Customer at the time of booking or in the booking confirmation.

The Company reserves the right to charge a cancellation fee where insufficient notice is given, where the technician is unable to gain access to the Premises at the agreed time, or where the Customer is otherwise not ready for the Services to be carried out. This may include a charge to cover travel time and any lost appointment slot.

In the unlikely event that the Company needs to cancel or reschedule an appointment, it will provide as much notice as reasonably possible. The Company will offer an alternative appointment time but shall not be liable for any consequential loss, cost, or expense arising from such cancellation or rescheduling.

9. Service Performance and Results

The Company will use reasonable skill and care in providing the Services and will endeavour to achieve the best possible results. However, due to the nature of carpets, fabrics, and existing conditions, the Company cannot guarantee that all stains, marks, or odours will be removed, or that any particular result will be achieved.

Certain stains and damage may be permanent, and cleaning may reveal pre-existing wear, fading, or pile distortion that was not readily visible beforehand. The Customer acknowledges that some fabrics and fibres have inherent limitations, and that previous cleaning attempts or treatments may affect results.

If the Customer is not satisfied with the quality of the Services, they must notify the Company as soon as reasonably practicable, and in any event within a reasonable period after completion. The Company may, at its discretion, offer to re-visit the Premises to inspect and, where appropriate, re-clean the affected areas.

10. Liability and Limitations

The Company shall be liable for any direct damage to property caused by its negligence or the negligence of its employees or contractors, subject to the exclusions and limitations set out in these terms. The Customer must report any damage believed to have been caused by the Company as soon as reasonably possible, and in any event within a reasonable time after becoming aware of it.

The Company will not be liable for:

Any existing damage, wear, fading, discolouration, or defect in carpets or fabrics, whether visible or not, that becomes more apparent after cleaning.

Shrinkage, colour loss, or texture changes where the fibre or fabric is prone to such issues, or where the item manufacturer’s cleaning instructions are not compatible with effective cleaning methods.

Any indirect or consequential loss, including loss of profit, loss of business, or loss of enjoyment arising out of or in connection with the Services.

The Company’s total liability in respect of any single event or series of connected events arising from the provision of Services shall be limited to the value of the Services provided on the date of the occurrence or such amount as may be covered by the Company’s applicable insurance policy, whichever is higher, unless otherwise required by law.

Nothing in these Terms and Conditions shall exclude or limit liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, or any other liability which cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law.

11. Health and Safety

The Company will take reasonable steps to carry out the Services in a safe manner and in compliance with relevant health and safety regulations. The Customer agrees to cooperate with any reasonable instructions given by the technician in relation to safety, including temporary restrictions on access to wet or treated areas.

Certain cleaning products and treatments may require drying times or restricted use for a period after application. The Customer is responsible for following any aftercare instructions provided by the technician, including any warnings about slip risks or potential reactions to cleaning agents.

12. Waste Handling and Environmental Regulations

The Company will handle and dispose of any waste generated by the Services in accordance with applicable waste and environmental regulations. This may include the responsible disposal of waste water, used cleaning materials, and any solids extracted during the cleaning process.

Where waste must be removed from the Premises, the Company will ensure it is transported and disposed of through appropriate channels. The Customer shall not request the Company to dispose of hazardous substances, controlled waste, or items outside the usual scope of carpet and upholstery cleaning activities.

The Customer is responsible for any pre-existing waste or contamination at the Premises that falls outside the normal scope of carpet and fabric cleaning. The Company may decline to handle such materials or may refer the Customer to a specialist waste contractor where appropriate.

13. Damage to Property and Belongings

The Customer must remove or protect fragile, valuable, or irreplaceable items prior to the appointment. While the Company takes care when working at the Premises, it is not responsible for minor cosmetic damage to items that were not moved or protected by the Customer, such as superficial marks that may occur when cleaning close to skirting boards or furniture.

Any claim for damage must be reported to the Company as soon as reasonably possible, providing details and, where available, photographs. The Company may request an opportunity to inspect the damage before any repairs or replacements are carried out.

14. Complaints and Dispute Resolution

If the Customer has a complaint regarding the Services, they should contact the Company promptly with full details of the issue. The Company will investigate the complaint and aim to respond within a reasonable timeframe.

The Company may, at its discretion, offer a re-clean, a partial refund, or other form of resolution where it considers this appropriate. Any goodwill gestures or remedies offered do not constitute an admission of liability.

15. Privacy and Data Protection

The Company will collect and process personal data about the Customer for the purposes of managing bookings, providing Services, processing payments, and handling enquiries and complaints. Personal data will be handled in accordance with applicable data protection laws.

The Company will take reasonable steps to keep Customer information secure and will not sell or share personal data with third parties except where necessary for the provision of Services, compliance with law, or with the Customer’s consent.

16. Amendments to Terms and Conditions

The Company may amend these Terms and Conditions from time to time. The most recent version will apply to any new or rescheduled booking. Where changes are material, the Company may notify Customers or publish the updated terms, and continued use of the Services will constitute acceptance of the revised terms.

17. Governing Law and Jurisdiction

These Terms and Conditions, and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with them or the provision of Services by the Company, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of England and Wales.

The courts of England and Wales shall have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with these Terms and Conditions or their subject matter.

18. Severability

If any provision of these Terms and Conditions is found to be invalid, unlawful, or unenforceable by a court or regulator, such provision shall be deemed modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid, lawful, and enforceable, and the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.

19. Entire Agreement

These Terms and Conditions, together with any written confirmation of booking and any additional written agreements between the Company and the Customer, constitute the entire agreement between the parties in relation to the provision of Services and supersede any prior discussions, understandings, or arrangements.

By proceeding with a booking, the Customer acknowledges that they have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions.
