I had Paul Cowie (COWIE CARPET CLEANERS CCC Inverurie Scotland) round to do a hallway, bedroom and living room carpet today. Having being disappointed with the results of another local cleaning company whom spent less than 1 hour doing 2 of the 3 carpets paul did. I can say nothing more than Wow!! the carpets are like new! this is due to a man that… has a passion for his work! Paul spent almost 7 hours cleaning carpets to the highest of standards! being light coloured carpets I was dubious of the fact that they would "come back"! excellent work from a man that is dedicated and passionate

Moor 2 Shore were recommended by Carpet Connection in Helston and what a recommendation it was! Darren and his wife run the business and provide a fantastic service from start to finish. Our carpets look and feel brand new and we’re totally chuffed. Can’t stop admiring the result!

Tony Stewart of Adchem spent 9 hours stripping & sealing our local Church Hall floor and brought about a fantastic improvement. The floor is now as good as new. Thank you Tony.
