Upholstered furniture holds on to more than it shows. Skin oils build up on armrests and headrests, crumbs gather in the seams, and dust settles into the fabric. Upholstery cleaning in Coorparoo covers armchairs, ottomans, fabric dining chairs, bedheads and window seats, anything with a padded fabric cover that cannot go in the washing machine. Regular cleaning also keeps colours brighter for longer.
The crew we book starts by checking the cleaning code on the label, usually W, S, WS or X, which tells them whether water, solvent or only dry methods are suitable. They vacuum the piece, pre-treat the arms and marks, then clean with a small upholstery tool that rinses and extracts in one pass. Delicate fabrics such as velvet or linen get a gentler solution and less water.

Most fabric pieces dry in a few hours with good airflow. Humid weather can slow drying, so running a fan nearby helps. Avoid sitting on them until they feel dry, and keep them out of direct sun during drying so the colour stays even. If you have cushions that zip off, leave the covers on so they keep their shape.
If your main piece is a lounge suite, ask about couch cleaning, which is priced by the seat. For chairs and other pieces, tell us how many and what fabric, and we will give you upfront pricing. The crews we book cover Coorparoo and nearby suburbs. Call 07 3543 9422 to book.
