What is Upholstery Cleaning?
Upholstery cleaning is a specialized process aimed at removing dirt, stains, and allergens from furniture fabric. At SteamPro Carpet Cleaning, our methods target visible imperfections while also extracting deeply embedded pollutants that can degrade fabric and affect air quality. We tailor our approach to the type and condition of your upholstery, ensuring optimal results.
Common upholstery materials like polyester, leather, cotton, and velvet each require specific cleaning techniques. For instance:
- Leather: Needs conditioning after cleaning to prevent drying and cracking.
- Silk: Often requires dry cleaning to avoid water damage.
