Some shops remove loose covers and submerge them in a 40-litre bath. This suits cotton slipcovers but risks shrinkage of 3 to 5 percent and seam puckering. Reupholstering a fitted cushion can cost as much as the cleaning itself, so ask whether the shop measures before and after washing.
Ask whether the cleaning agents are Green Seal or ECologo certified if children, pets, or asthma sufferers use the sofa. Solvent-based products leave fumes for 4 to 6 hours. Request the Safety Data Sheet for any chemical the technician brings indoors, especially around infants under 12 months old.
Cleaning reveals weak stitching, sagging webbing, and broken springs. A pro should photograph frame problems and alert you before proceeding. Wet cleaning a frame with cracked wood can cause swelling and joint failure. Expect to be told if the furniture is unsafe to lift or move.
Reputable cleaners carry at least 1 million in liability insurance and offer a written guarantee against colour loss or shrinkage for 14 days. Ask for a certificate of insurance and read the exclusions. Manufacturer warranties often require documentation from a certified technician to stay valid.
Spring and early autumn are peak seasons and slots fill 2 to 3 weeks ahead. Mid-winter often brings same-week availability. Emergency stain jobs may carry a 25 to 40 percent surcharge outside normal hours. Booking a combined carpet and upholstery visit usually lowers the per-item rate.
Upholstery cleaning covers hot water extraction, dry foam, and shampoo methods for sofas, armchairs, dining chairs, ottomans, and headboards. Technicians usually test the fabric code first, marked W, S, W/S, or X. Each code limits which solvents and water levels are safe. Ask which code your furniture carries before booking.
The fabric code on the care tag decides the cleaning chemistry. W means water-based solutions only, S needs solvent-based cleaners, W/S accepts either, and X requires vacuuming without moisture. Using the wrong method can shrink cotton blends, bleed dyes, or leave watermarks. Confirm the code is read before any product is applied.
Hot water extraction leaves cushions damp for 6 to 12 hours depending on room humidity and airflow. Dry foam methods cut that window to roughly 2 to 4 hours. Running a dehumidifier or fan cuts drying time by about a third. Ask the technician to quote expected dry time based on the chosen method.
Oil, ink, red wine, urine, and old coffee stains usually need pre-treatment before extraction. Pre-treatment adds 10 to 20 minutes per spot and a small surcharge per area. Some dye-based stains cannot be removed fully without risking fabric damage. Request a test patch on a hidden seam first.
Most companies price by seat, by piece, or by square metre of fabric. A three-seat sofa typically costs more than two armchairs combined because of frame weight and setup time. Travel fees, stain severity, and fabric protection add-ons raise the total. Ask for a written quote that lists each variable.
