Breathe Easier at Home: Reduce Allergens, Improve Air Quality, Protect Your Family
Advanced Allergen Reduction • Fibre Decontamination • Indoor Air Quality Improvement
Indoor air quality is directly influenced by the condition of your carpets, rugs and upholstered furniture. These surfaces act as large reservoirs for airborne particles that settle deep into the fibres, including pollen, dust-mite allergen, pet dander, mould spores and general particulate matter. When disturbed, these particles re-aerosolise into the breathing zone, reducing indoor air quality and triggering symptoms in sensitive individuals.
Our Healthy Home & Indoor Air Quality service is designed to address this entire cycle. Using advanced extraction, fibre decontamination and allergen-neutralising technology, we help reduce airborne irritants and create a significantly healthier environment within your home.
Serving Southampton, Winchester, Portsmouth, Fareham, Eastleigh, Petersfield, Alton, Basingstoke and the New Forest.
The Science Behind Indoor Allergen Build-Up
Indoor allergens originate from multiple sources:
Pollen and hay fever triggers (grass, tree and weed pollen carried indoors on shoes, clothing, pets and ventilation systems)
Dust mite allergen (Der p 1 and Der f 1 proteins found in mite waste)
Pet-derived allergen (Fel d 1, Can f 1 and dander particles)
Microbial fragments (mould spores, fungal hyphae, bacteria)
Particulate matter (PM10 and PM2.5 fine particles)
Skin scales, fibres, textile dust and lint
Carpets and soft furnishings trap these particles efficiently. However, the problem develops when normal activity — walking, vacuuming, sitting — releases them back into the air, increasing respiratory exposure.
This can contribute to:
Hay fever and seasonal allergic rhinitis
Asthma flare-ups
Coughing, wheezing or throat irritation
Dry, itchy or watery eyes
Increased nighttime symptoms
General reduction in comfort and air freshness
Improving indoor air quality requires reducing contaminants at fibre level — not simply refreshing the surface.
Our Technical Healthy Home Allergen Treatment
1. Microscopic Fibre Assessment & Particle Load Evaluation
We identify the contamination type, concentration, and distribution within carpet and upholstery fibres. Special attention is paid to high-risk zones:
Pile base and underlay transition points
Skirting board edges
Fibre pivots and twist points
Upholstery creases and deep tufting
This ensures a targeted decontamination process.
2. High-Efficiency Allergen Extraction
We use commercial systems capable of removing fine particulate matter that standard vacuum cleaners cannot reach. Our method extracts:
Pollen fragments and hay fever triggers
Dust mite waste and allergens
Pet dander proteins
Microbial spores
Embedded fine dust (PM10 / PM2.5 particulate)
This significantly reduces airborne re-exposure.
3. Fibre Sanitisation & Allergen Neutralisation
A controlled application of a fibre-safe sanitising agent helps:
Break down allergenic proteins
Neutralise dust-mite activity
Reduce microbial load (mould spores, bacteria)
Improve overall hygiene
Minimise odour-causing residues
This step is particularly important for homes with asthma, hay fever and respiratory sensitivities.
4. Rapid Evaporation Drying to Prevent Secondary Allergens
Poor drying conditions can introduce mould spores and secondary allergens.
We use high-velocity air movers to ensure:
Fast evaporation
No dampness left within the pile
No microbial growth during the drying phase
Ensuring carpets are fully dry is crucial for maintaining a healthy indoor environment.
5. Optional Anti-Allergen & Soil-Repellent Coating
For homes seeking maximum long-term benefit, we can apply a fibre-specific protector that:
Reduces the adhesion of pollen and dust
Helps prevent allergen reservoirs reforming
Improves vacuuming efficiency
Maintains air quality between deep cleans
This is ideal for hay fever sufferers and pet owners.
