Fifi Posted February 7, 2011 Report Share Posted February 7, 2011 Does anyone do Rug Doctor here? We hired it from B&Q and used it south and it was really good. If not, what's the best DIY one here? TIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Cheesemaker Posted February 7, 2011 Report Share Posted February 7, 2011 We hired one from Shetland Cleaning Services.. they are based in Bigton I think but the steam cleaner can be collected from the Viking bus garage. We had no problems.. was relatively cheap, very effective and they seemed fine to deal with. Have just checked and their no is 01950 422319 according to shetlopaedia It didn't take at all long, dried overnight and when you see how much dirt u get out, you wonder why people don't all steam clean atleast annually Good luck Jay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sharney houghs Posted February 8, 2011 Report Share Posted February 8, 2011 hi, i recently hired one from frank williamsons for £20.Unfortunately i think it had been used to clean up something nasty and not been cleaned afterwards so my living room carpet started to smell really bad after cleaning. then it got worse, spreading through the house and i had to pull up the carpet and underlay and dump it.According to the assistant at williamsons they have never heard of this before and it is some sort of reaction with the detergent and underlay!

fatboyslim Posted February 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2011 Thanks for that. Think I will try Shetland Cleaning Services then. Also heard that Garriock Bros hire ones too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owre-weel Posted February 9, 2011 Report Share Posted February 9, 2011 I used to borrow a rug doctor from a pal in the past and was very impressed with the difference it made. Carpets were dry within 3-4 hours. Never had any problems with it. Unfortunately the pal sold it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nortaboot2 Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 Rug Doctor is amazing, it's the best carpet cleaner I have used - and I have tried quite a few in the past! The best thing is that it does not soak the carpet and it dries very quickly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
