Report
Safe Clean is a completely unique company in the UK as it only has the rights to it's unique organic cleanic products that from what they say leave better cleans and do not damage upholstery as it works at lower temperatures. The parent company is a larger company that has plenty of experience in this industry so who am I to disagree, much like the eurythmics. This company now has many stores that offer the same goods in the south so one outlet wouldn't be too far away.
The way it works is that you call them up, they come round and give you the quote with they stress the ACTUAL amount you will pay, then you decide if you want them to do it. Simples! The website is very interesting as there is much information on there about the company and also information on how to keep your upholstery looking good so that you don't have to get them round as quick.
