Carpet Cleaning Cost in the UAE (Per Sqft and Per Room)

Carpet cleaning in the UAE typically costs from around AED 49 for a small rug or single room, with larger areas priced per square foot or per room. Servia sofa and carpet shampoo starts from AED 49. Hot-water extraction is the standard method here because it lifts the fine sand and dust that work deep into carpet fibres.

# Quick answer

• Small rug or single room: from around AED 49.
• Per room: commonly a flat rate per room, rising with size and soiling.
• Per square foot: larger or wall-to-wall areas are often priced by area.
• Method: hot-water extraction (deep shampoo), the most effective for UAE dust.

# How carpet cleaning is priced

Two pricing models are common. Per-room is simple and predictable for apartments, with a flat rate per standard room. Per-square-foot suits large villas and wall-to-wall carpet, where area is the fairest measure. Either way, the price rises with size, how soiled the carpet is, and any pet-odour or heavy-stain treatment. Servia sofa and carpet shampoo starts from AED 49, and you get an exact figure at booking.

# Why UAE carpets need deeper cleaning

Fine desert sand is abrasive and works into the base of carpet fibres, where a household vacuum cannot reach. Combined with year-round AC dust and summer humidity, carpets trap allergens and can hold odours. Hot-water extraction injects a cleaning solution and immediately extracts it along with the loosened soil, which reaches far deeper than surface vacuuming or dry powder.

# What the method involves

Our own trained specialists pre-treat stains and high-traffic paths, then run hot-water extraction across the carpet to lift embedded soil, followed by deodorizing. The carpet is left damp and typically takes 3 to 6 hours to dry fully, faster with good airflow. Optional extras include a stain-protector spray and pet-odour treatment.

# How often to clean carpets here

For most homes, every 6 to 12 months keeps carpets fresh. Move to every 3 to 6 months with pets, young children, or heavy foot traffic. Book sooner after a spill or a sandstorm that has left grit through the home. Between professional cleans, vacuum weekly and treat spills quickly so they do not set.
