Fabric furniture takes on body oils, dust and the odd spill every day, and it all builds up in the arms, seat edges and seams. Upholstery cleaning in East Brisbane covers armchairs, recliners, ottomans, upholstered bedheads, window seats and fabric stools. Older pieces from a family home or second-hand finds often freshen up more than people expect. Couches and dining chairs are booked as their own services, but they can all go on the same visit.
The crew we book reads the cleaning code on the label to see whether the fabric can take water, needs solvent, or should only be vacuumed. They vacuum the piece, pre-treat the arms and marks, then clean with a small upholstery tool that sprays and extracts in one pass. Natural fibres such as linen and cotton get less water to limit shrinking and water marks.
- Cleaning code checked on every piece
- Vacuum of seams, piping and crevices
- Pre-treatment on arms and headrests
- Low-moisture method for natural fibres
- Drying advice to avoid water marks
Most pieces are dry within two to four hours with good airflow. Keep them out of strong sun while drying, sit on them only once they feel dry, and brush up the pile on velvet or chenille with a soft brush once it has dried. Cushion covers should stay on, as washing or drying them separately can shrink them. In humid weeks, a fan nearby speeds things up.
Tell us which pieces you want cleaned and roughly what the fabric is, and we will give you upfront pricing. If you are also having carpets done, the upholstery can be cleaned while the carpet dries. The crews we book work across East Brisbane. Call 07 3543 9421 to book upholstery cleaning.
