About Upholstery Cleaning Services
Upholstery cleaning involves the deep cleaning of fabric or leather furniture to remove dirt, stains, and allergens. Using specialized cleaning solutions and equipment, the process lifts dirt from fibers, refreshes the fabric, and restores the look and feel of your furniture. It’s an effective way to keep your upholstery looking new and extend its lifespan.
Upholstery Cleaning Process
- Inspection and Assessment:
- A cleaning professional will inspect the upholstery to identify the fabric type, stains, and areas of concern. This allows them to determine the most suitable cleaning method.
- Pre-Treatment:
- Stains and heavily soiled areas are treated with specialized solutions to loosen the dirt or break down the stain before the main cleaning process.
- Cleaning:
- Depending on the type of fabric and the chosen cleaning method (steam cleaning, dry cleaning, or shampooing), the cleaning solution is applied, and dirt, dust, oils, and stains are extracted from the upholstery.
- Rinsing and Extraction:
- After the cleaning solution is applied, it is extracted along with the dirt and debris using powerful suction equipment, leaving the upholstery clean without excessive moisture.
- Drying:
- The furniture is left to dry, either naturally or with the help of air movers or fans. For faster drying, steam cleaning methods may be preferred because they use less water than shampooing.
- Finishing Touches:
- Once the upholstery is dry, the professional cleaner may apply a fabric protector to help prevent future stains or use a grooming brush to lift the fabric fibers for a fresh look.
