Keeping your carpets fresh, clean, and hygienic is easy with Oven & Carpet Bliss – your local carpet cleaning specialists in Swindon. We deliver professional carpet cleaning services throughout Swindon, Wiltshire and nearby areas (within a 15-mile radius). Our team takes pride in revitalising carpets and removing stubborn stains, all with a friendly, confident approach. We do the hard work so you don’t have to: using industry-leading equipment to deep-clean carpet fibres and lift out dirt, allergens, and odours. The result is a home that looks cleaner, smells fresher, and feels healthier underfoot, without you having to rent a machine or spend hours scrubbing on your hands and knees.
Why You Need Professional Carpet Cleaning
Vacuuming alone is not enough to keep carpets truly clean. Over time, carpets accumulate a surprising amount of dust, soil, and microbes deep in their pile. In fact, studies have found that an average carpet can hide up to four times its weight in dirt and debris. Much of this dirt is buried deep down where regular vacuums can’t reach, acting like grit or sandpaper that wears down carpet fibres. This can dull the appearance of your carpet and shorten its lifespan.
Additionally, carpets are a magnet for allergens such as dust mites. These microscopic pests thrive in carpet fibres and can exacerbate allergies and asthma. Even if you vacuum frequently, standard vacuums don’t effectively remove dust mites from the base of the carpet. Professional hot water extraction cleaning (sometimes called steam cleaning) is proven to eliminate a significant majority of dust mites and allergens – one study noted it can reduce dust mite populations by around 87%
Besides dirt and allergens, everyday life brings spills, stains, and odours into your carpets. Spilled drinks, pet accidents, muddy footprints, and general foot traffic can leave your carpet looking stained or smelling less than fresh. DIY spot cleaning might help temporarily, but deep-down residues often remain. Over time, these can lead to lingering odours or even mould growth if moisture is trapped.
Professional carpet cleaning addresses these issues by thoroughly washing and extracting the contaminants from the carpet, not just the surface. It’s especially important in a family home with young children or pets, where you want to ensure the carpet is a safe and clean surface for everyone to play or relax on. By investing in professional cleaning, you’ll protect your carpet investment (wall-to-wall carpeting can be expensive to replace) and maintain a healthier indoor environment.

Superb job at an excellent price. Moved into a new house recently and the oven was in a bit of a state. After Jamie had finished, it looked brand new. He also gave me some very good advice about usage of the oven which I wasn't aware of. Would recommend to everyone.
Our Carpet Cleaning Process
At Oven & Carpet Bliss, we use a comprehensive carpet cleaning process tailored to your carpet’s specific needs. First, we will inspect your carpet – noting any heavy traffic areas, stains, or special fabric types (for example, wool or synthetic fibers). This helps us determine the most suitable cleaning approach. We then carry out a thorough pre-vacuum of the area with a high-powered vacuum. This removes loose soil and dust on the surface, allowing the deep cleaning to be more effective.
Next, we apply a professional carpet cleaning solution to the carpet. This pretreatment spray is eco-friendly and child/pet-safe, but tough on dirt. We pay special attention to spots and stains, treating them with appropriate stain removers to loosen them up. Common stains like coffee, wine, pet urine, or food spills are each treated with the correct cleaning agents to maximise removal.
After giving the cleaning solution time to work, we proceed with the hot water extraction phase. Our industrial-grade carpet cleaning machine injects hot water mixed with cleaning solution into the carpet pile under high pressure. This dislodges dirt, allergens, and oils from the fibres. Almost simultaneously, a powerful vacuum extracts the water along with the dislodged grime into a recovery tank.
Essentially, it’s a deep rinse of your carpet. This method (also known as steam cleaning) is highly effective and is the method recommended by most carpet manufacturers. It cleans right down to the base of the fibres. We make additional passes over stubborn areas to ensure a thorough clean. For any particularly stubborn stains, we may repeat the treatment or use specialised techniques until we’re satisfied that everything that can be removed has been. Once the extraction is complete, we can apply a deodoriser or sanitiser if needed, leaving your carpet smelling fresh.
Finally, we groom the carpet pile (using a carpet brush) to lift the fibres and help them dry faster and uniformly. Most of the moisture is removed during the extraction, so what’s left in your carpet is just dampness that typically dries within a few hours. We ensure your room is left tidy, placing back any furniture we moved (putting protective foil pads under furniture legs if the carpet is still slightly damp, to prevent any wood stain transfer).
Our cleaning process not only removes visible dirt and stains but also sanitises the carpet by removing bacteria and allergens. We take care to ventilate the area or use air movers if necessary to speed up drying time. At the end of our process, your carpets will be noticeably brighter in colour, softer to the touch, and free of unpleasant odours – rejuvenated to a like-new condition.
Benefits of Our Carpet Cleaning Service
Choosing professional carpet cleaning with Oven & Carpet Bliss gives you numerous benefits. The most obvious is the visual improvement – your carpets will look significantly cleaner, with stains reduced or gone and matted traffic lanes fluffed up again. This instantly improves the overall appearance of your home’s interior. Moreover, the cleaning will remove stale odours that have been trapped in the carpet fibres, whether it’s the smell of spilled food and drink, pet smells, or just general mustiness. You’ll enjoy a fresher smelling home after we’re done.
Another key benefit is improved hygiene and health in your living space. By extracting dust, pollen, pet dander and mites, our service helps to purify your carpet and improve indoor air quality. This is particularly beneficial for anyone in the household who suffers from allergies or respiratory issues. Many customers report that after a deep carpet clean, the air feels cleaner and they have peace of mind knowing that hidden allergens have been pulled out of their floors. It’s part of keeping a healthy home environment.
Carpet cleaning also helps your carpets last longer. Dirt particles that grind into the fibres cause wear and tear that makes carpets flatten and fade over time. By removing that grit, we prevent excessive abrasion. Professional cleaning can thus extend the life of your carpet significantly, protecting the investment you made in your flooring. Rather than replacing carpets prematurely due to neglect, regular cleaning keeps them in good condition for years longer.
Lastly, using our service saves you a lot of effort and time. Deep cleaning a carpet with a rented machine or DIY products can be laborious and often yields subpar results compared to a professional touch. Our powerful equipment and experienced technicians do the job more efficiently and effectively. We handle all the moving of equipment and furniture as needed, so you don’t have to strain your back. In a matter of hours, you get beautifully clean carpets without the inconvenience or the risk of using the wrong products. We take care of everything with a professional, confident approach – leaving you free to sit back and enjoy your refreshed home.

Frequently Asked Questions about Carpet Cleaning
The timing can vary based on the size of the area and how dirty the carpets are. As a general guide, cleaning a single room might take around 30 minutes to an hour. An average three-bedroom house (carpets in lounge, hallway, stairs, and bedrooms) can take roughly 2–3 hours to clean thoroughly. We can give a more precise estimate once we know the scope of your specific job.
Typically, carpets will be dry to the touch within 2 to 4 hours after cleaning. Drying time depends on factors like the carpet thickness, temperature, humidity, and ventilation in the room. We extract most of the moisture during the cleaning, so only a bit remains. On a warm, well-ventilated day, carpets can dry quite quickly. We recommend opening windows or turning on the heating in cooler weather to speed up the drying process. You can walk on the carpet while it’s drying (it’s clean, after all), but it’s best to be careful on damp carpet to avoid slipping and to leave protective pads under furniture until fully dry.
We ask that you move small, fragile items and breakables from the areas being cleaned (for example, clear up children’s toys, floor lamps, or delicate items on furniture). Our team can shift most sofas, chairs, and tables as needed to clean underneath them, and we will put them back in place afterward. We won’t move very heavy or delicate furniture like pianos, large bookcases, or cabinets with electronics – we’ll clean around those. If you have specific pieces you want us to clean under, it helps to discuss that with us in advance. Rest assured, we will cover as much open carpet area as possible, even if some large items stay in place.
It’s not necessary for you to vacuum beforehand – we will do a thorough vacuum as part of our process. However, if the carpet is excessively dirty with loose debris, a quick once-over with your vacuum won’t hurt. The main thing is to remove any small items or clutter on the floor (as mentioned regarding furniture and personal items). Also, if you have any particularly valuable or fragile furniture that you’d prefer to move yourself, you can do so prior to our visit. Otherwise, leave the heavy lifting to us.
We have professional stain removal solutions for most common stains and achieve a high success rate. However, no company can guarantee removal of every single stain. The outcome depends on the type of stain, how long it’s been there, and the carpet fibre. We can usually eliminate or significantly fade stains like mud, food and drink spills, or pet stains. Some older stains or those that have been treated with the wrong chemicals before might be permanent. We will always do our best and use the appropriate techniques for each stain. If a stain is removable, we’ll get it out. If we think something might not come out completely, we’ll let you know what results to expect.
Yes. All our cleaning solutions are professional grade but also safe and non-toxic for household use. We use detergents that are biodegradable and free from harsh chemicals. Any residues left (which are minimal, since we rinse the carpet thoroughly) are safe once dry. We make sure to rinse out the cleaning agents from the carpet during the hot water extraction, so no sticky or dangerous chemicals remain. Your children and pets can play on the carpet again as soon as it’s dry, without any worries.
Most carpet manufacturers recommend a professional cleaning about once every 12 months for a household carpet under normal use. High-traffic areas or homes with young kids, pets, or smokers might benefit from a cleaning every 6–9 months. If you have allergies, you might also opt for more frequent cleaning to keep allergen levels low. Regular cleaning prevents excessive soil build-up and keeps your carpets looking fresh year after year. Even if a carpet doesn’t look dirty, cleaning it on a schedule will remove hidden dirt and extend its life. We can work with you on a maintenance schedule that suits your home’s needs.
Absolutely – we have special treatments for pet-related issues. For pet urine stains, we use enzymatic cleaners that break down urine crystals to eliminate the source of the odour. During the hot water extraction, we flush out the contaminants from the carpet and padding. While fresh accidents respond very well to professional cleaning, older or severe cases (especially if the urine reached the underlay) might require multiple treatments to fully resolve. We also apply deodorisers to leave your carpet smelling clean. In most cases, our process will significantly reduce or completely remove pet smells and stains, making your carpet fresh again.
We primarily use the hot water extraction method, which is often referred to as steam cleaning. This is widely considered the most effective carpet cleaning technique. It involves hot water and cleaning solution being injected into the carpet and then immediately extracted, as described in our process above. This method cleans deep into the fibres and removes dirt and moisture efficiently. In some situations, if a carpet is very delicate or cannot be wet cleaned, we have other methods (like low-moisture or dry cleaning techniques), but for most carpets steam cleaning provides the best results. We will choose the method that is appropriate for your carpet type to get it as clean as possible without causing any damage.
Yes, our service covers rugs and carpeted stairs too. We can clean area rugs (depending on size and material – most standard rugs can be cleaned on-site using similar techniques). If a rug is very delicate or antique, we might recommend a specialist cleaning facility, but for most rugs we handle them just fine. We also clean stair carpeting and landing carpets, which often get a lot of foot traffic. Stairs are included when we do a full house carpet clean, or we can do just the staircases on their own if needed. Whatever your carpeted areas – from small rugs to entire homes – we’re equipped to clean them thoroughly.
