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.
A colourfastness test takes 10 minutes and prevents bleeding or fading. The technician rubs a hidden seam with a white cloth dampened in the cleaning agent. If dye transfers, they switch to a milder product. Skipping this step is the most common cause of ruined cushions in viscose or silk blends.
Codes W, S, WS, and X tell the technician which product to use. W means water-based cleaners only. S means solvent only. WS allows both. X means vacuum only, no wet cleaning. Bringing a phone photo of every tag, including cushions, prevents wrong-method calls that void fabric warranties.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
