How to Remove Pet Hair
If you have pets your carpets and soft furnishings may get covered in hair, you may find that no matter how much you vacuum that you can’t get rid of the hair. We remove pet hair by using some specialist rubber brushes or a window squeegee, once collected we vacuum them up.

How To Remove Grease From Extractor Filters & Ovens
Built-up dirt and grease in ovens can be a nightmare to clean, however, carrying out End Of Tenancy Cleans for our Letting Agent clients we’ve come across some of the dirtiest ovens going! We remove all the racks put them in a black bin liner and spray them with Oven Cleaner, we then tie it up and leave them for a few hours or overnight if possible. The solution will work twice as hard as it’s sealed, you then remove them and wash in the sink with Fairy Liquid and wire wool if necessary and the burnt-on grease just falls off!

How to Remove Blood Stains
When dealing with blood stains make sure you wear gloves, the sooner you deal with the stain the more chance you have of removing it, always use COLD water. Use damp kitchen towels and blot the stain from the outside working in, you will see the stain wick up into the kitchen towel and keep repeating the process. Then place a couple of layers over any remaining stain with a heavy object on top and leave, any residue will wick up. For heavier, more stubborn stains call the professionals.
