Carpet cleaning in Haringey
Haringey's bulky collection only takes carpet cut up and tied in bags under 80 litres, which is a lot of bags for a living room. Cleaning it is less work: £173 covers a three-bed flat with the living room and hallway.

Short parking hours in Crouch End, long ones in Wood Green
Haringey has 43 controlled parking zones and they don't agree on much. Crouch End A and Highgate are controlled only from 10am to noon on weekdays. Muswell Hill runs 11am to 1pm, every day. Wood Green Inner is controlled from 8am to 10pm, seven days a week. Pay by phone costs £1.60, £2.60 or £4.10 an hour depending on the zone, and most zones are free on bank holidays.
For a full day, the council's £30 permission to park permit lets a tradesperson use resident and shared-use bays on one chosen street. It doesn't work on event days in the zones round the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, so if you're in N17, check the fixture list before you pick a day. We ask for a space or a visitor permit when we book, and any paid parking is added at cost.
One new thing: works began on 22 October 2026 to make the High Road in Wood Green, from Turnpike Lane to Bounds Green Road, a red route around the clock. Once it's in, stopping is only allowed in the signed parking and loading bays. If you live on that stretch, tell the office.
Haringey neighbourhoods we clean in, including Tottenham, Crouch End and Muswell Hill
Tottenham N17 · N15
Tottenham covers six wards and close to 30,000 households. Haringey's Tottenham High Road Historic Corridor is made up of five conservation areas: North Tottenham, Scotland Green, Bruce Grove, Tottenham Green and Seven Sisters/Page Green. A quarter of households own their home (25.5%), and the rest mostly rent, privately or socially, in roughly equal numbers. Bruce Castle and Tottenham North are among the parking zones with longer hours on stadium event days, so the office can help you pick a date away from a fixture.

Wood Green N22 · N8
A big slice of Wood Green was planned in one go. The Noel Park estate opened in 1883 with about 2,200 dwellings, designed by Rowland Plumbe for the Artizans, Labourers & General Dwellings Company. Across Wood Green, 62.0% of homes were built before 1919, above Haringey's 54.0%, and many houses have been divided up since, with 22.7% of households in converted flats. Where a flat has its own stairs up from the street door, they're cleaned like any other flight, at £41.

Hornsey N8
Seven in ten Hornsey households live in a flat (69.4%, against 61.0% across Haringey), and Hornsey High Street was made a conservation area on 18 February 1980. Parking depends on the zone. Hornsey North is controlled from 8am to 6.30pm on weekdays, so a visitor permit or a space helps there. Hornsey South is controlled only from 11am to 1pm, and a room or two can often be finished before the controls start. Neither zone runs at weekends.

Muswell Hill N10
Muswell Hill's street pattern was mostly laid out in the early 20th century, and its architecture is mainly Edwardian: 65.5% of homes are pre-1919. A lot of those houses are flats now. Converted flats (32.6% of households) outnumber purpose-built ones (26.2%) here, and lifts are rare in an Edwardian house. If you're up on the second or third floor, tell the office when it calls: without a lift, we charge £10 for every floor past the first.

Crouch End N8 · N6
Three quarters of Crouch End households live in a flat (74.5%), and just over half its homes (51.1%) are older than 1900. The Crouch End B parking zone is controlled on weekdays from 2pm to 4pm only, so with a morning booking the cleaner can be parked, finished and away before the controls start. Haringey's list says parking in its zones is free outside their hours. Tell the office the floor as well if you're over a shop or up in a converted house.

Highgate N6
These figures are for Haringey's Highgate ward only; the rest of Highgate is over the borough line in Camden and Islington. Hardly anything on this side is new: 4.1% of homes went up from 2000 on, while 46.3% are older than 1900. If your period windows have long curtains, the cleaner can do them on the rail, £42 a pair, if you send the office a photo first. Lined, interlined, silk and velvet curtains belong with a dry cleaner.

Harringay N8 · N4
By 1900 all the land in Harringay had been built over, and the streets west of Green Lanes are known as the Harringay Ladder. Most homes in the ward (77.7%) are older than 1900. Half of households rent privately, 50.2% against 35.6% across Haringey, and 37.7% live in a converted flat. If you've just moved into one, book the clean before your furniture arrives. The cleaner has nothing to move, and the carpet can dry overnight in an empty room.

Stroud Green N4 · N8
Stroud Green straddles Haringey and Islington; the figures here are for the Haringey side, where the Stroud Green conservation area dates from 10 June 2003. It is old housing: 78.3% of homes predate 1900, only 1.7% date from this century, and half of households (50.3%) live in a converted flat. Rooms in a split house can be snug. Light furniture gets shifted by the cleaner, and the bed and wardrobe are worked round; toys and breakables are yours to clear first.

Sofas go out on their own run

Haringey collects upholstered furniture separately, because sofas and armchairs can contain persistent organic pollutants. The sofa may be picked up at a different time from the rest of your bulky items, or a day later, and it has to be covered and at street level by 6.30am. The collection, booked with Veolia, is £20 for up to four items and £10 for each one after, to a maximum of £80 for ten.
Before you book it, think about whether the sofa just needs a wash. Our price for a three-seat sofa is £83; an armchair is £33. The cleaner works on the sofa where it stands, reads the care label first and cleans removable covers on the sofa. Fabric sofas only: leather and velvet we leave alone. Allow 12 to 15 hours before anyone sits down. Upholstery cleaning has the rest.
When a tenancy ends in Tottenham or Wood Green
35.6% of Haringey households rent privately. Since 17 November 2022, single-household and two-sharer lets in 14 wards have needed a selective licence, among them Noel Park, Seven Sisters, Tottenham Hale, West Green and Woodside, and every HMO in the borough now needs a licence too.
When a tenancy ends, the carpets can be cleaned with the furniture in or out; furnished rooms cost the same. We'll split the invoice room by room between landlord and tenant if you ask. A bedroom is £36, a living room £43 and a hallway £22, with everything else on the price list. The smallest job is £67.

Victorian terraces and their stairs
More than half of Haringey's homes (54.0%) are older than 1919, and a quarter of households live in a terraced house. The borough's 28 conservation areas include Highgate, designated in December 1967, Crouch End and Muswell Hill (both 1974) and Noel Park.
A terrace means a staircase. We price a three-bed house with the living room, hall, stairs and landing at £223, and the stairs and landing take up to an hour of that visit. If the stair carpet is wool, tell the office when you book; the cleaner checks the fibre and backing and keeps the water low.
How booking works
- Price it herePick the rooms and the furniture. The price adds up as you go.
- The office calls youBetween 8am and 7pm, about access, parking and stains, and to agree a day. A 50% deposit holds it.
- The cleaner comes overCarpets, rugs, sofas and mattresses are cleaned in your home. Nothing is taken away.
Haringey questions, answered
- Will the council take my old carpet?
Only on the bulky collection if it's cut up and tied in bags of under 80 litres. A whole roll can go to the Western Road reuse and recycling centre in N22, which takes carpet, mattresses and sofas. By car you don't need to book; vans, trailers and pick-ups do.
- Can you come on a Spurs match day?
Yes, but parking is harder. The £30 permission to park permit isn't valid on event days in the stadium zones, so tell the office if you live in one and the day can be picked with that in mind.
- Do you clean rugs as well?
Yes, on the floor where they lie. A rug up to 3 m² is £35, a bigger one £51, and one small and one large rug together come to £86. Silk, viscose and antique hand-knotted rugs go to a specialist.
- Is a weekend booking easier for parking?
Not in Muswell Hill, where the zone runs 11am to 1pm every day, or in Wood Green Inner, controlled to 10pm all week. In Crouch End A and Highgate the controls stop at weekends. A week's notice usually gets a slot, but weekends book up first.
- Is Haringey's water hard?
Yes. Thames Water's 2025 samples average 263 mg/l in the Haringey West zone (Wood Green) and 269 mg/l in the White Hart zone (Tottenham), both in its hard band of 200 to 300 mg/l. It doesn't change the price; the machine runs on your tap water, so leave it on.
