Professional upholstery cleaning that protects your investment

Your lounge suite and upholstered furniture see daily use — absorbing body oils, pet hair, food particles, dust, and allergens over time. Regular professional cleaning not only keeps them looking and smelling fresh, it extends the life of the fabric and maintains the colour and texture of the fibres.

Wayne uses low-moisture upholstery cleaning techniques suited to each fabric type. Unlike carpet cleaning, upholstery fabrics vary enormously — from durable microfibre to delicate natural fibres like cotton, linen, and wool. Wayne inspects each piece and selects the appropriate cleaning method before starting.

For heavily soiled pieces or those with embedded pet hair, Wayne applies a pre-treatment solution that loosens debris before extraction, ensuring a thorough clean without over-wetting that could distort cushions or leave watermarks.

Common questions about upholstery cleaning

What types of upholstery can Wayne clean?
Wayne cleans sofas, armchairs, ottomans, dining chairs, office chairs, and most fabric-upholstered pieces. He works with microfibre, cotton, polyester, linen, velvet, and most synthetic blends. Leather and very delicate natural fibres like silk may require specialist treatment — Wayne will advise if a piece is outside his service scope.
How long does upholstery cleaning take to dry?
Most upholstered pieces dry within 1–3 hours. The exact time depends on fabric density, the level of soiling, and ventilation. Wayne uses low-moisture techniques that minimise drying time and reduce the risk of watermarks or distortion on cushions.
Can you remove pet hair from upholstery before cleaning?
Yes. Wayne includes pet hair removal as part of the upholstery cleaning service. A thorough pre-clean to remove embedded hair improves the effectiveness of the cleaning solution and extraction. This is particularly important for microfibre sofas which can trap hair deep in the fibres.
Will cleaning remove pet odours from my couch?
Professional cleaning with a deodorising treatment is highly effective at eliminating pet odours from upholstery. Wayne applies an enzyme-based deodoriser that breaks down the organic compounds causing the smell at a molecular level, rather than simply masking the odour with fragrance.
How often should I have my lounge suite professionally cleaned?
For most households, professional upholstery cleaning every 12–24 months is sufficient. Homes with pets, young children, or allergy sufferers typically benefit from more frequent cleaning — every 6–12 months. Regular vacuuming between professional cleans extends the life of the fabric and keeps it looking fresh.
Can you clean fabric dining chairs?
Yes — dining chairs are one of the most commonly cleaned pieces. Wayne can clean fabric-upholstered dining chairs, bench seats, and bar stools. Dining chairs often accumulate food residue and stains that require pre-treatment before extraction cleaning.
Do I need to move my furniture before the clean?
Wayne brings his equipment to where your furniture is located, so you don't need to move sofas across the house. It does help to remove cushions and accessories beforehand so Wayne can clean all surfaces efficiently. He'll advise on the day if any preparation is needed.
