What Three Typical West Van Jobs Cost
These aren't real customers or quotes, just the rate card applied to the three kinds of home we see most here, from the water up.
A two-bedroom apartment in Ambleside
Most of West Van’s apartments are along the water in Ambleside, many in buildings from the sixties and seventies. Two carpeted bedrooms, a carpeted living room and a hallway fit inside the base package. The planning is all about the building: send the name, the elevator rules and where a service van can park.
Total: $129
A split-level in the British Properties
Houses above the highway are built into the slope, so they spread over several levels. Picture six carpeted rooms, a hallway and four short flights of stairs. The stairs add more than people expect, which is why we count them before we start.
Total: $129 + three extra rooms ($117) + four flights ($156) = $402
A house in Caulfeild with hardwood and rugs
Three carpeted bedrooms and a hallway upstairs, hardwood everywhere else, and two large wool rugs downstairs. The carpet fits the base package; the rugs are priced on the day by size and fibre, and cleaned in your home.
Total: $129, plus the rugs
The total is always agreed at your door after we’ve measured. Steep driveways in the upper neighbourhoods are fine, but tell us how far the front door is from where the van can park, because the hoses run from the van.

North Shore weather
Why Carpet Dries Slower Up the Hill
Moist air off the water rises up the slope, cools and drops its rain, which is why the North Shore gets more of it than the city across the inlet. The higher the house, the more of that weather it sees.
For carpet, that means winter drying at the long end of our usual 4 to 8 hours, especially on a lower floor built into the hill. Keep the heat on, crack a window, and stay off it until it's dry to the touch.

Ducts, Vents and Fireplaces in West Vancouver
First, a question worth asking: does your house have forced air? Some West Van homes heat with hot water or baseboards, and if yours is one, you don’t need air duct cleaning in West Vancouver, and we won’t sell it to you. If you do have a furnace, it runs more of the year up the hill, so furnace cleaning in West Vancouver belongs on the same visit as the ducts. Big houses often put the laundry mid-floor plan, with a long run to the outside wall, which is where dryer vent cleaning in West Vancouver comes in.
We also do gas fireplace cleaning in West Vancouver, upholstery cleaning in West Vancouver (linen, velvet and leather each get a different method), area rug cleaning in West Vancouver, and move-out carpet cleaning.
