Most technicians choose between hot water extraction, dry foam, or solvent cleaning. Hot water extraction injects heated water between 50 and 70 degrees Celsius, then vacuums it out within 15 minutes. Dry foam suits delicate weaves and reduces drying to about 1 hour. Solvent cleaning handles oily stains on natural fibres.
After extraction, a moisture meter should read below 15 percent before cushions are reused. Air movers cut dry time from 8 hours to about 3 hours. Keep the room between 18 and 24 degrees Celsius with a fan running. Sitting on damp fabric invites mildew within 48 hours.
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.
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.
General household sofas benefit from professional cleaning every 12 to 18 months. Homes with pets, children, or smokers need it every 6 to 9 months. Light-coloured fabrics show soil sooner and may need more frequent visits. Keep a written record of each service date and method used.
Look for a truck-mounted or portable extraction machine with at least 500 mmHg vacuum strength. Upholstery wands between 10 and 15 cm wide reach tight seams. A water-safe vacuum, moisture meter, and air movers indicate a serious setup. Handheld brushes should have soft bristles under 20 mm long.
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.
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.
Common failures include browning from over-wetting, dye bleed between fabric panels, shrinkage on cotton or linen, and foam swelling that warps cushions. Delicate trims such as piping and zippers can discolour if soaked. Insist on a written pre-inspection report listing risk areas before any work starts on your piece.
Move breakables, lamps, and electronics away from the work area. Vacuum the piece the night before to remove loose soil, which improves extraction results. Lift cushions so the technician can reach the seams and corners. Keep pets in another room. Clear a parking spot within 10 metres of the door.
