A rug that smells is a rug full of something — damp, smoke, old food, a previous owner’s dog, years of feet. Spraying it only buys a few days. We take the cause out with a full extraction clean, then sanitise and deodorise so the room smells of nothing at all, which is the point.
Grit, stains and pet smells — lifted out of the rug, not covered up.
Adelaide service
Pet urine specifically has its own enzyme treatment and its own page — if the smell is sharp and ammonia-like, start there.
The clean itself does most of the work: hot water extraction flushes out the oils, skin flakes, food and dust that bacteria feed on, which is where most odours actually come from. Sanitise and deodorise (+$30 per rug) then applies a hospital-grade, low-residue antimicrobial through the pile and a deodoriser that neutralises rather than perfumes. It is the right add-on for anything second-hand, anything a baby crawls on, and anything that has had a sick household on it. We do not use heavy fragrances — a sanitised rug should smell like clean fabric, not a car freshener.
If the musty smell comes with grey or black spotting, stiff patches or a rug that has been wet for days, that is mould, and it needs the mould and mildew treatment rather than a deodoriser. Surface mildew on a synthetic rug is usually recoverable; a rug that has been soaked and left in a damp room for weeks often is not, and we will tell you which yours is.
Rug clean by size — runner $69, medium $99, 2 × 3 m $139, extra large $179, oversized $219 — plus sanitise and deodorise at +$30 per rug. Pet urine and odour treatment is +$40 where urine is the cause. Minimum booking $89; every extra rug in the same visit 10% off. For a rental or Airbnb with several rugs, booking them together is the cheap way to do it.

Common questions
Yes. We use a low-residue antimicrobial applied through the pile and extracted, not left sitting on the surface, and no heavy fragrance. Keep little ones off the rug until it is fully dry, usually 2–4 hours.
Usually, yes. Smoke is oily and sits in the fibres, so it responds well to hot water extraction with the right pre-spray, followed by a deodoriser that neutralises rather than masks. Very heavy, long-term smoke can leave a faint trace on a thick rug.
We would. You do not know what it has had on it, and a full extraction clean plus sanitise and deodorise (+$30) resets it. Check the back for stiff or discoloured patches first — that can mean old urine, which needs the enzyme treatment instead.
Why us
Size tiers, add-ons and the minimum are all on the page. No “from $29” bait and no call-out fee in the fine print.
We tell you what will lift and what might not before you pay. If your rug needs a specialist laundry, we say so instead of guessing.
No pick-up, no week without your rug. We clean it where it lies and it is back in use that evening.
Low-residue products, rinsed out through extraction rather than left in the pile for kids and dogs to lie on.
Book a morning slot and the furniture is back on it by dinner.
