Lyme Regis is one of the busiest stretches of the Dorset coast, and anyone letting a property here knows how far beach sand can travel indoors. Even careful guests leave a trail – a few days is all it takes for grains to work down into the pile, dulling the colour and leaving the carpet rougher underfoot. I’ve cleaned a number of properties along this stretch of coast, and my starting point is always a pre-treatment designed to break down sand mixed with general soiling before extraction even begins.

The Magma in-line heater paired with the Steempro Power Plus keeps the water at a steady high temperature, which makes a real difference on this kind of grit compared with a cold-water pass. Changeover time is almost always tight, so I plan the visit to leave enough margin for the carpet to be completely dry before the next arrival – the last thing a holiday let needs is any hint of a damp smell.
