Fresh accidents, usually yes. Old urine that has soaked into the underlay is harder: the smell comes back with humidity unless the technician treats the pad with enzyme products or, in bad cases, replaces sections of underlay. Expect pet treatment to be a priced add-on, and be honest about the history — a technician who knows what happened treats it correctly the first time.

Yes — hot water extraction removes a large share of dust-mite allergen, pet dander and tracked-in pollen that vacuuming leaves behind, which is why allergy clinics often suggest periodic deep cleaning.

Ultra-low room prices are frequently bait: on arrival the price grows via 'heavily soiled' surcharges, mandatory pre-treatment fees, or per-stain charges. Consumer protection agencies in several countries have warned about this pattern in carpet cleaning specifically. Judge quotes by what's included in writing — pre-treatment, spot work, minimum charge — not by the headline number.

No honest cleaner guarantees it.

Per-room steam cleaning typically runs R250-R550, with whole-house jobs for a 3-bedroom home between R900 and R2,400. Johannesburg and Cape Town metros price at the top; smaller centres lower. Pet enzyme treatment and stain protection are the common add-ons.

It can — truck-mounted units run off the vehicle, but many local operators use plug-in extraction machines that need mains power. When booking, confirm whether the operator is self-powered or needs your electricity, and schedule around your area's outage blocks if they do.
