Our Upholstery Cleaning Process

1. Pre-Inspection

Our technicians will perform special tests to determine the content of your fabric. The content will determine what type of cleaning solutions and techniques will be used. We will also point out any potential permanent stains or areas of concern. 

2. Area Preparation

We will prepare the area where the upholstery will be cleaned to protect your surrounding furnishings. 

3. Pre-Vacuum

All textiles will be vacuumed thoroughly before cleaning. This step will remove dry soils and any loose particles from cracks and crevices.

All textiles will be vacuumed thoroughly before cleaning. This step will remove dry soils and any loose particles from cracks and crevices. 

4. Pre-Treat

Depending on your fabric type, a special solution designed for your fabric type and the soiling condition will be applied to dissolve the soil. 

5. Pre-Spot

Any potentially difficult spots will be pre-treated with special solutions to increase the chances of removal. 

6. Pre-Groom

The fabric will then be gently groomed using soft upholstery brushes to loosen the soil. 

7. Soil Extraction and Rinse

The soil is then extracted from the fabric with a gentle, controlled rinse.

8. Neutralize

The fabric is then pH balanced to maintain its soft, fresh feel. 

9. Post Spot

Any remaining spots will be treated with special stain removal products. 

10. Post Groom 

The upholstery will then be prepared for drying with a gentle combing of the fabric. 

11. Speed Dry

High velocity air movers will be placed on the upholstery to speed dry the fabric. 

12. Post Cleaning Inspection

Our technicians will review the cleaning results with you to ensure that your expectations have been met or exceeded.

    Richard and his company did a terrific job stretching and shampooing all the carpet in our house prior to listing it for sale. It looks fantastic! Richard was a dream to work with — very reasonable prices and very responsive. I would highly recommend him.

    Exceptionally pleased with their responsiveness, customer service and work quality.  We had a large water stain from a year ago I missed.  A year later, the carpet looks great.  Richard went out of his way to ensure I was happy with their work.  I am!  A great company.  A pleasure to endorse a d support.

  • They are wonderful. They did my whole house and it looks great. Some pet stains didn't come out so they came back to treat with something different.  Very knowledgeable and courteous.  I've been using them for years.
