Fitted carpet and large synthetic rugs are cleaned on site, wool and delicate rugs with pick-up. With your request, attach photos of both sides of the rug. Jelgava is further than about 15 km from the Riga boundary, so travel is from €10, and pick-up and return costs €10 plus another €10.
Apartment-building districts and detached houses with gardens
Jelgava is a compact city where apartment-building districts alternate with detached-house neighbourhoods: in many neighbourhoods, detached houses with gardens line the streets. So here there can be both a flat with one large rug in the room and a house with more rugs, of different kinds.
In a detached house with a garden a rug sometimes ends up outside, and sand and grass come with it. If the rug is synthetic with a short pile, it is cleaned at home from €6/m². If it is wool or cotton, it is cleaned in the workshop with pick-up from €10/m². In winter many people clean rugs with dry snow in the yard, but for wool this is a risk if the snow melts: moisture and rubbing can felt it and the dyes can bleed. More: cleaning a rug with snow.
In the form field “Where to clean?” you can choose “Not sure”: a specialist will advise, from photos of the top and the underside, what suits your rug. We do not do repairs or fringe restoration.
Student dormitories and rental flats
The Latvia University of Life Sciences and Technologies has renovated student dormitories with shared kitchens and washing machines. If you let a flat to students or other tenants, the rug is one of the things worth checking between two occupants. In your request, write how many rugs there are in the room.
If you let a flat and it has to be ready for the next tenant by a certain date, write it in the request, and attach photos of each rug and of the stains. A fresh stain usually comes out better than an old one, but paint and bleach spots often stay. Smoke smell can be reduced, but we cannot promise that it will disappear.

Offices, shops and production premises
Jelgava is a regional administrative centre, and the city has educational institutions, production and trade. Offices and shops may have soft floor covering fitted. Makers, for example Shaw, advise professional hot-water extraction once every 12–18 months, depending on the traffic.
For fitted carpet up to 100 m² the price is from €4/m², over 100 m² from €2.50/m² for the whole area. For example, 120 m² × €2.50 = from €300, and travel from €10 is added. In your request, write when the rooms are free. More: office carpet cleaning and carpet cleaning for businesses.
Bridges and the railway: what to say about access
The Lielupe and the Driksa divide the city and concentrate traffic on the bridges. The A8 and the railway lead towards Riga, and roads also lead towards Dobele, Bauska and Lithuania. Bridges, traffic in the centre and railway crossings can affect the route.
In your request, write the full address and on which side of the river the house is, because this helps to agree pick-up. State the floor, the lift and the place where a car can stop by the house.
High windows and heavy curtains in the historic centre
In historic buildings the curtains of tall windows can be long and heavy, and they are priced by the fabric, not by the size of the window. For heavy, night and double curtains the price is from €3.70/m² of fabric. If a curtain has a lining, the labels of both fabrics must be read, because the face fabric and the lining may be different fibres.
In velvet curtains the pile can be crushed by water and pressure, so velvet must not be rubbed: moisture should be blotted from the edges inwards, and a dry pile should be brushed in the direction of the pile. Curtain take-down and rehanging is a separate job with a price depending on the situation. More: curtain dry cleaning.
A dog from the garden and sand in the rug
If the house has a dog that runs around the garden, sand, grass and mud can get into the rug. Vacuum dry dirt first, but do not rub a wet mud stain: rubbing pushes it deeper. When the mud has dried, it can be crumbled off, and the remaining stain is assessed from a photo.
If an animal has left urine, the area of the smell can be up to three times larger than the visible spot. Urine or odour treatment costs extra from €3/m². Example: a 2 × 3 m synthetic rug with urine treatment is €36 + €18 = from €54, and travel is added. More: carpet urine cleaning and pet hair removal from rugs.
Prices in Jelgava
The cleaning minimum is €45: if the total is lower, you pay €45. Travel to Jelgava is from €10, because Jelgava is further than about 15 km from the Riga boundary. Pick-up and return costs €10 plus another €10, because the distance is over about 15 km from the Riga boundary.
Example: a 2 × 3 m wool rug is 6 m² × €10 = from €60, plus €10 and another €10, from €80 in total. A 1.6 × 2.3 m synthetic rug is 3.68 m² × €6 = €22.08, so you pay €45 for cleaning, and travel is added.
