Upholstery Cleaning

Your Furniture Benefits from Regular Upholstery Cleaning

Just like our carpet, our upholstery furnishings require regular maintenance. Because most fabrics are made of the same base materials as carpet, the recommended cleaning process is the same.

Most major manufacturers recommend regular vacuuming and professional Hot Water Extraction (Steam cleaning), with a fast drying time to keep the fabrics looking and feeling their best. It is recommended that most upholstery fabrics be cleaned every 12 months depending on usage to keep them clean, fresh and hygienic.

Using environmentally friendly products and a fast dry cleaning process, you will be surprised what a difference a thorough clean of your upholstery can make.

Unlike the “old days” of upholstery cleaning, the cleaning tool completely encompasses the moisture and vacuum ensuring that the only moisture that escapes is destined to remove dirt and soils from your valuable furniture. This leaves the surrounding area and floor completely dry and able to be accessed whilst your fabric is drying in record time. This allows you to move about the home freely without the concern of slipping on damp floors, or that you carpet may become damp when you simply want your upholstery cleaned.

How long will it take for my upholstery to dry?

Upholstery typically responds the same as carpet. Both in soil removal and moisture retention. Therefore, your upholstery will be dry in around 4-6 hours. This can be sped up if the furniture is in a warm environment. Upholstery drying times can vary depending on weather conditions, environment, and soiling. Some microfiber fabrics are dry in around 1 hour, depending on how soiled they are prior to cleaning, and where they are placed to dry.

Is upholstery cleaning safe for my fabric and my family?

Because Steam Cleaning extracts dust, dirt, pollens, bacteria and fungi, your fabrics will be left hygienically clean and fresh, and safe for all your family members, including pets. The cleaning process is totally safe for all fabrics, however, worn, damaged or sun damaged fabrics need to be treated with the utmost care so as not to damage them any further.
