Upholstery and drapery cleaning FAQs
How often should upholstery be professionally cleaned?
Many households benefit from upholstery cleaning every 12 to 18 months. Homes with pets, children, allergies, or heavily used furniture may need cleaning more often.
Can all couches be cleaned the same way?
No. Upholstery fabrics vary, so the safest cleaning method depends on the fabric type, dye stability, age, condition, and manufacturer care guidance.
Can upholstery cleaning remove pet odors?
Professional upholstery cleaning can help with many pet odors, but deep urine or repeated accidents may need specialized odor treatment.
Do drapes need to be taken down for cleaning?
Not always. On-site drapery cleaning can refresh many curtains and drapes while they hang, depending on the fabric and condition.
