About Inner South
The Inner South takes in the streets between Lake Burley Griffin and Red Hill: Kingston and its foreshore, the cafés at Manuka, the leafy blocks of Forrest, Red Hill and Deakin, and the embassy streets of Yarralumla. It's home to some of Canberra's oldest suburbs, with homes that date back to the 1920s, alongside newer apartments at Kingston Foreshore and Barton.
That means a lot of good furniture, wool rugs and older carpet that people want to look after rather than replace. A careful, low-moisture clean suits it well, and it helps in winter, when frosty mornings and closed-up houses slow any drying right down.

What Inner South homes ask us for
Older homes, wool carpet and rugs
Many Inner South homes have wool carpet or rugs over floorboards. We check the fibre before we start and choose a method to suit. See rug cleaning.
Leather and good furniture
Leather lounges need leather-safe products, not carpet chemistry. Our leather furniture cleaning cleans and conditions without soaking.
Apartments at Kingston and Barton
For apartments, tell us the building, floor and parking when you call so we can plan around lifts and visitor bays.
Not sure we reach your street? Call 1300 314 038 and we'll tell you.

Why Inner South homes choose Chem-Dry
The five things Chem-Dry is known for, in plain language.
Healthier Deeper Clean
Cleaner through the pile, not just on top
Hot Carbonating Extraction lifts dirt, dust and allergens out of the carpet fibre instead of pushing them around, and leaves no soapy residue to attract new dirt.
Fast Drying Times
Dry in hours, not days
Chem-Dry uses about 80% less water than typical steam cleaning, so carpets typically dry in 1–4 hours, not 1–2 days. Handy in a cold Canberra winter, when houses are shut up with the heating on.
Eco Certifications
Certified main cleaner
Chem-Dry's main cleaner, The Natural®, has no soaps, detergents or fragrances and carries U.S. EPA Safer Choice and ECOLOGO certifications.
40 Years of Trust
Cleaning Australian homes since 1986
Chem-Dry has operated in Australia since 1986. Chem-Dry Pure Clean brings that tested system to Canberra, run locally by Shaun.
P.U.R.T.® – Pets
Pet urine treated at the source
P.U.R.T.® (Pet Urine Removal Treatment) breaks down the urine crystals that make a smell come back on warm days, instead of covering it up.

Questions from Inner South
Do you service Red Hill and Deakin?
Yes. We've cleaned homes in both. Call 1300 314 038 with your street to book.
Can you clean a delicate or antique rug?
Sometimes. It needs an honest look first. Tell us about the rug on the phone and we'll talk through the safest option.
Is the clean safe for a home with kids and pets?
Chem-Dry's main cleaner, The Natural®, has no soaps, detergents or fragrances and carries EPA Safer Choice and ECOLOGO certifications. We'll tell you when it's fine for kids and pets to be back on the carpet.
How long before I can put furniture back?
Carpets typically dry in 1–4 hours. On cold winter days, or with thick wool pile, allow a little longer.
