Michael Fletcher — Owner & Founder

I started Right Price Carpet Cleaning in 2007 because I believed Melbourne families deserved a carpet cleaning service that was genuinely transparent about pricing — no inflated quotes, no bait-and-switch, no hidden charges on the day.

Over 15 years later, I still turn up to every job with the same truck-mounted equipment and the same commitment to quality. Right Price is a family business, not a franchise — you’re not getting a subcontractor who’s never met me. You’re getting me, or a member of our small, trusted team.

I’m proud of our 228 five-star Google reviews because they represent real customers who were genuinely happy. If something isn’t right after we leave, I want to know — and I’ll come back and fix it.

Carpet Steam Cleaning in Blackburn

Carpet cleaning in Blackburn is a regular need across the suburb's leafy residential streets — the combination of the Blackburn Lake Sanctuary's native vegetation corridor and Blackburn's well-established private gardens means homes deal with seasonal native pollen, eucalyptus leaf debris and fine organic material tracking indoors through spring and autumn. Homes throughout Blackburn, from the streets bordering the Blackburn Lake Sanctuary to those near the Surrey Road village strip, have a mix of Federation-era, post-war and 1970s builds where carpet types range from original wool to newer synthetic pile. The suburb's family character and strong community of owner-occupiers makes regular professional steam cleaning an investment most Blackburn households return to annually. Learn more about our Melbourne carpet cleaners and how we work.

Our truck-mounted steam cleaning system delivers far more heat and suction than portable machines, extracting what's embedded deep within the fibres instead of only cleaning the surface. Pricing starts from $45 per room.

  • All home sizes — including double and triple storey
  • General staining and soiling included as standard
  • Eco-friendly, non-toxic solutions — safe for children and pets
  • Book online any time — no phone call required

Why Truck-Mounted Gets Better Results

More Heat & Pressure
Machine stays in the truck — unlimited power, no tank to empty or refill.
Dry in 6–8 Hours
Superior extraction removes far more moisture than portable units can manage.
Deeper Clean
Reaches embedded grit, allergens and bacteria that portable hire machines miss.

How We Clean Your Blackburn Carpets

Every job follows the same proven five-step process — designed for a thorough, lasting result.

1
Pre-Inspection
We assess carpet type, fibre and soiling before starting to tailor the clean to your specific carpets.
2
Pre-Treatment of Stains
High-traffic areas and visible stains treated with eco-friendly solution for extra dwell time.
3
Truck-Mounted Hot Water Extraction
Hot water injected deep into fibres under pressure, then immediately extracted along with all loosened dirt, allergens and residue.
4
Speed-Drying
High-suction extraction removes maximum moisture — most Blackburn customers find carpets dry in 6–8 hours.
5
Post-Clean Walkthrough
We take a few minutes before we go to walk you through the work completed and answer any questions — so you’re fully across everything we did.

Blackburn note: Blackburn's Federation-era and post-war homes often retain wool or wool-blend carpets chosen to complement the character of the property — we identify fibre type during the pre-inspection and lower water temperature and extraction pressure accordingly to prevent shrinkage. Leaf debris from the Blackburn Lake Sanctuary corridor and seasonal mud from established back gardens are the most common pre-treatment soiling types in this area.

What Our Steam Clean Removes

Truck-mounted hot water extraction goes far deeper than portable machines or dry cleaning methods.

Deep-Set Dirt and Grit

Allergens, Dust Mites & Pet Dander

Stains and Spills

Bacteria and Odours

Common in Blackburn: Blackburn's mature tree canopy — featuring wattle, plane trees and native species around the Blackburn Lake Sanctuary — produces significant seasonal pollen in spring and autumn that settles into carpet fibres throughout the suburb. Blackburn's leafy family streets are home to popular dog breeds including Labradoodles, Golden Retrievers and Cavoodles, and pet dander accumulates in carpet pile between professional cleans. Our truck-mounted extraction removes these allergens from deep within the carpet pile, not just the surface layer.

Why Blackburn Homes Benefit from Regular Professional Cleaning

Blackburn's leafy character and established family homes make professional carpet cleaning a worthwhile investment in both appearance and indoor air quality. The suburb's mature tree canopy and the Blackburn Lake Sanctuary corridor create a beautiful living environment, but also deposit seasonal leaf fall, wattle pollen and fine organic debris that tracks indoors on footwear and through open windows throughout the year. Blackburn's mix of older and newer family homes all accumulate deep-set grit and allergens between professional cleans that regular vacuuming can't reach. Our truck-mounted system delivers the heat and extraction depth that keeps Blackburn's family home carpets genuinely clean, healthier and looking their best. Every 6–12 months is the right interval.

Carpet Cleaning Blackburn — FAQ

How much does carpet cleaning cost in Blackburn?+
Our standard price is $45 per bedroom-sized room (up to 3×4m). This includes pre-treatment, truck-mounted hot water extraction, general staining and soiling, and our satisfaction guarantee. No call-out fees, no hidden charges. Use our online booking tool for an instant quote on your home.
How long will my carpets take to dry after cleaning?+
Most Blackburn customers find their carpets are dry within 6 to 8 hours. This is significantly faster than the 12-hour industry average because our truck-mounted system extracts far more moisture than portable units. Opening windows and running fans will speed up drying further. We recommend staying off the carpets for 2 hours after the clean.
Is steam cleaning safe for wool carpets, children and pets?+
Yes — we use eco-friendly, non-toxic cleaning solutions that are safe for families and pets once dry. For wool carpets, we always check the fibre type during our pre-inspection and adjust the water temperature and method accordingly. Wool requires a gentler approach and we’re experienced in cleaning it correctly without causing shrinkage or damage.
What is the difference between truck-mounted and portable steam cleaning?+
Truck-mounted machines are significantly more powerful than portable hire units. The machine stays in the truck and draws on unlimited power, delivering higher water temperature, greater pressure and stronger suction. This means a deeper clean, better stain removal and faster drying. Portable machines — including supermarket hire units — can leave carpets wet for 24 hours or more and often just redistribute dirt rather than extracting it.
How often should I have my carpets professionally cleaned?+
For most Blackburn homes, once every 12 months is sufficient. Households with pets, young children or allergy sufferers will benefit from cleaning every 6 months. High-traffic areas like hallways and living rooms accumulate grit faster than bedrooms. Regular professional cleaning also extends carpet life by removing the abrasive particles that wear down fibres over time.
