FAQ
Everything You Need To Know
How often should upholstery be professionally cleaned?
Upholstery should be professionally cleaned every 12 to 24 months, depending on usage, fabric type, and household conditions. Homes with pets, children, or allergy sufferers may benefit from more frequent cleaning around once a year. Regular professional cleaning removes embedded dirt, dust mites, body oils, and allergens that accumulate over time. It also helps extend the life of the furniture and improve indoor air quality. Between cleans, vacuuming and spot cleaning can help maintain the appearance and hygiene of your upholstered pieces.
Can all types of upholstery be cleaned?
Most upholstery fabrics can be professionally cleaned, but each material requires a specific method to avoid damage. Common fabrics include cotton, linen, polyester, wool blends, and synthetics, while some items may have delicate or colour-sensitive materials. Before cleaning, professionals typically assess the fabric type and condition and choose the appropriate technique, such as steam cleaning, dry cleaning, or low-moisture extraction. This ensures effective cleaning without causing shrinkage, discolouration, or fibre wear.
How long does it take furniture to dry after cleaning?
Drying times can vary depending on the fabric type, cleaning method used, and airflow in the room. On average, professionally cleaned upholstery takes between 4 and 8 hours to fully dry. Lightweight fabrics may dry faster, while thicker, more absorbent materials may take longer. Opening windows, using ceiling fans, or running air conditioning can help speed up the process. It’s recommended to avoid sitting on furniture until it’s completely dry to prevent re-soiling or imprint marks.
