Upholstery Cleaning

Sofas, chairs and other fabric furniture

Upholstered pieces you can ask us to clean
Area or itemWhat we clean
SofasWe clean fabric sofas and look at the marks you want treated. Tell us how many seats the sofa has and whether it includes a corner or chaise section.
ArmchairsWe clean fabric armchairs, including the seat, back and arms you want treated. We check the covering on each chair, even when it matches the sofa. A care label and a photograph help us price the right piece.
Corner sofasWe clean corner sofas, including the seats, back cushions and chaise section you want included. Send a photograph of the full layout so the quote covers the whole piece.
FootstoolsWe clean upholstered footstools alongside sofas and chairs when they are booked together. The top and sides may have different fabrics or wear, so we look at the whole piece. Include its approximate size when asking for a price.
Other upholstered itemsTell us about any other fabric furniture you want cleaned alongside the sofa. Send a photograph and the care label for each piece so we can check the covering and discuss the price.
Dining chairsWe clean upholstered dining chairs as individual pieces. Let us know whether you want just the seats or the fabric backs cleaned too. Tell us how many chairs there are and show any differences between their coverings.
Chaise sectionsWe clean fabric chaise sections as part of a sofa when they are included in the booking. A chaise is longer than an ordinary seat, so a photograph helps show its size and how it joins the rest of the furniture.

We check the covering and its condition

Fabric details that matter before furniture cleaning
What we checkWhy it matters
Care labelsShare a photograph of the care label where one is available. It can help identify the covering and its care instructions. We also look at the actual condition of the furniture.
Mixed fabricsSome furniture combines different fabrics, trims or finishes. Show us the whole piece and the different materials. We check how each part needs to be cleaned before starting on the furniture.
Loose cushionsTell us whether cushions are loose or attached. A cushion that lifts off does not necessarily have a removable or washable cover. We check its construction before discussing the cleaning.
Worn fabricPoint out thinning fabric, loose seams or worn patches before the visit. Cleaning cannot replace missing fabric or repair stitching, so we explain what may improve and what will remain.
Earlier treatmentLet us know if the upholstery has been cleaned or protected before, especially where a mark has already been treated. Tell us what product was used if you know.

Spills and marks on your furniture

Things to show us when asking about a clean
Mark or areaWhat to know
Food and drinkSend a photograph of food or drink marks and the surrounding fabric. We look at the stain alongside the covering. Complete stain removal is not something we can promise for every item.
Well-used seatsWe work on dirt in the seats and back cushions, including the places used most often. The fabric may also have flattened or worn with use. We explain the difference so you know what cleaning can reasonably change.
Arms and edgesWe clean the fabric arms and edges you have asked us to include, paying attention to areas touched most often. We look at the dirt and fabric condition together, particularly where repeated use has left both marks and wear.
Hidden marksIf moving a cushion reveals an old mark, mention it before the appointment. A photograph can help us discuss the problem, including whether the fabric has changed colour or been damaged.
Unknown stainsYou do not need to guess what caused a mark. Tell us what you know and whether anything has already been applied. We will look at the fabric before discussing treatment.
Marks on back cushionsWe look at marks on the back cushions as well as the seats. Please point out hair-product marks, food spills or other areas you want treated. We check the fabric before deciding how to work on the stain.

What happens when we clean your furniture

Checking the pieces, cleaning and looking at the result
During the visitWhat happens
Confirming the itemsWe check the furniture you have asked us to clean. Show us any extra chairs, cushions or other pieces you want cleaned too, so we can discuss them before starting.
Looking at the fabricWe check the care label, marks and any damage before cleaning. If a covering needs particular care, we explain how that affects the work on your sofa or chair.
Cleaning the piecesWe clean the furniture and marks included in the booking, taking care of each covering as we work. Extra pieces can be added after we have explained the cleaning and price.
Working around the itemTell us how much room there is around large furniture. We need to know which sides can be reached. Moving a heavy sofa through the home is not automatically included.
Checking the finishAfter cleaning, we look at the furniture with you and explain any marks that remain. Worn fabric, damaged padding and lost colour need different work and are not repaired by cleaning.
Loose and fixed cushionsWe clean the cushions included with the furniture, checking which are loose and which are attached. Tell us about extra scatter cushions so the item list covers those pieces too.

Getting your room ready

Simple information to give us before we arrive
Before we arriveHow you can help
Small belongingsLet us know what will remain on and around the furniture. Clearing personal belongings makes the item easier to reach without asking the cleaner to sort or move your possessions.
Large piecesDescribe large sofas and other items that will stay in place. Tell us about any side pressed against a wall or fixed fitting. We can then discuss the fabric that can be reached.
PhotographsSend an overall photograph of each piece as well as close views of labels and marks. A close-up alone may not show the size or shape of the furniture you want cleaned.
The right entranceGive the postcode and any flat or unit number. Let us know who will open the door. A shared building may contain several homes, so we need the details for yours.
Room useTell us when the furniture will be needed again. Drying depends on the fabric, cleaning and conditions in the room. We do not give one guaranteed drying time for every piece.

Other furniture and fabric cleaning

Items and treatments to mention when you book
Additional serviceDetails
Leather furnitureLeather furniture has its own cleaning service. Tell us if a piece is leather or combines leather with fabric. Cleaning does not include recolouring leather or repairing a worn finish.
Fabric protectionIf you want fabric protection as well as cleaning, ask before the appointment. It needs to suit the covering and is priced separately unless included in your quote. It cannot prevent every possible stain.
Curtains and mattressesTell us if curtains or mattresses also need cleaning. We offer separate services for them and can discuss the different items together. List what you need so the quote includes the right cleaning.
Rugs and carpetsYou can ask about rug or carpet cleaning alongside furniture cleaning. Give details for each item or room. We will distinguish the different textiles and explain what is included in the quote.
Furniture repairsBroken frames, torn covers and damaged cushions need separate attention. Let us know about them when asking for cleaning. A cleaning visit does not include reupholstery or replacement furniture parts.

After the upholstery has been cleaned

Using the furniture and asking about the result
After cleaningWhat to expect
DryingAsk us about using the furniture after cleaning, especially if it is needed at a particular time. Fabric types and room conditions differ, so the same drying estimate does not suit every item.
Marks that remainSome marks and areas of wear may remain visible. We explain what we find on the particular piece. A stubborn stain does not mean the covering can withstand any stronger treatment.
Colour changesCleaning does not replace colour that has already been lost from the fabric. We distinguish fading or damage from removable dirt so you have a realistic idea of the finished appearance.
Checking individual piecesWe check the individual sofas, chairs and cushions after cleaning. If you have a question, show us the particular piece and the mark that concerns you. We can then explain any stain, wear or damage that is still visible.
Getting in touchCall or send a current photograph if you want to discuss something afterwards. Tell us which part of the furniture it shows, so we can talk about the actual piece and its condition.

YOUR QUESTIONS

Questions about upholstery cleaning in Northwood

Your upholstery cleaning questions
QuestionAnswer
Does cleaning a sofa bed include its mattress?No. Tell us separately if you want the mattress cleaned as well as the sofa covering.
Should chair pads be listed separately?Yes. Loose pads and the chair’s fixed upholstery may be different items.
How do you check whether upholstery is cotton?We look at the care label or product details, rather than rely on how the fabric looks.
Does upholstery cleaning include removing all food odour?A smell can remain if food has soaked into the filling or there is another source inside the furniture.
Does dry-to-touch mean the filling is dry?Not always. The outside can feel dry while moisture remains deeper in the cushion, so follow the drying advice for your furniture.
