What happens when the technician arrives

A thorough, professional process, not just a spray and wipe.

1- Floor protection and overshoes

The technician puts on overshoes and covers the floor area around the furniture with a protective sheet before any cleaning begins.

2- Fabric inspection

The fabric type and any stains are assessed. A suitable cleaning solution and the correct method, steam or dry, are confirmed.

3- Industrial vacuuming

The piece is thoroughly vacuumed with an industrial-strength machine to remove loose dust, debris, and surface particles.

4- Stain pH-testing and pre-treatment

Any stains are pH-tested and pre-treated with the appropriate detergent, fabric sofa cleaner, leather cleaner, or specialist solution for the specific stain type.

5- Steam or dry cleaning

Most fabric upholstery is steam cleaned using hot water extraction. Suede, microfibre, and delicate materials are dry cleaned using a bonnet rotary machine and dry solvent, no drying wait.

6- Scotchgard protection (optional)

If requested, Scotchgard fibre protection is applied at an additional cost, causing future spills to bead rather than absorb into the fabric.

7- Aftercare advice

The technician offers aftercare advice on regular maintenance upon request, free of charge. Upholstery can also be cleaned as part of a deep cleaning or end of lease booking.

Trusted upholstery cleaning services near you

Regular upholstery cleaning is essential for maintaining the quality of your furniture. Our professional cleaning services include advanced methods to clean upholstered furniture, whether it’s natural fabrics or leather lounges.

Dry cleaning is a method of cleaning suitable for light coloured fabric or delicate materials. While steam cleaning is a highly effective method for removing stains, dirt, and grime, while ensuring that the natural fibers are protected.

Experienced upholsetry cleaners are fully insured, offering peace of mind that your furniture will be cleaned properly.

Every fabric type, the right method every time

One method does not suit all upholstery. The technician inspects on arrival and selects the approach that protects the fabric while delivering the best result.

Fabric sofas and armchairs

Most fabric upholstery is cleaned using hot water extraction, the same high-powered steam method used for carpet cleaning. It removes allergens, dust mites, bacteria, and stains from deep within the fibres. Drying time is approximately 4–6 hours with good ventilation.

Suede, microfibre, and delicate fabrics

Steam cleaning is not suitable for suede, microfibre, or certain natural-fibre upholsteries. These are dry cleaned using a bonnet rotary machine and an appropriate dry solvent, effective stain and odour removal with minimal drying time.

Leather sofas and lounges

Leather cleaning uses specialist detergents, soft brushes, and a cloth, no water extraction. The technician finishes by buffing the surface with a professional leather conditioner that nourishes and protects the material. Drying time is approximately one hour. Eco-leather pieces can also be cleaned with this method.

Leather sofa cleaning, a specialist service

Leather furniture requires a completely different approach to fabric cleaning. Water extraction would damage the material; leather cleaning uses only specialist detergents, soft brushes, and a cloth. The process removes surface grime, conditioning the leather as it's cleaned.

The technician finishes by buffing the cleaned surfaces with a professional leather conditioner, nourishing the material, restoring its softness, and protecting it from future cracking and drying. Eco-leather pieces are also cleaned using this method.

Small scratches and light surface damage may also be addressable with a leather repair kit. Let the customer service team know when booking if this is needed, and they will advise on whether the technician can assist.

Frequently asked questions

Do you clean upholstered walls?
Usually, individual pieces of tapestry and upholstered walls are maintained by regular vacuuming, which successfully removes any dust buildup and other airborne pollutants. Spot cleaning, removal of stains and cleaning mouldy patches can be requested and booked. Please, give as many details as possible to your customer care representative and you will be advised on the best cleaning solutions, available to you.
How often should I clean my sofa?
This depends entirely on the level of use and the manner of use, your furniture is subjected to. You should regularly vacuum your soft furniture and spot clean any new stains. You can book our regular upholstery service once or twice a year, where you will be reminded in advance prior to your next routine cleaning session.
