Your Trusted Upholstery Cleaning Professionals in Chicago Suburbs

There are several important reasons why it is beneficial to have upholstery cleaned regularly and by a professional cleaning service:

1. Improved Indoor Air Quality: Upholstery can harbor dust, allergens, pet dander, and other pollutants that can negatively impact indoor air quality. Regular professional cleaning helps remove these contaminants, improving the overall air quality in your home or office and promoting a healthier living or working environment.

2. Removal of Stains and Odors: Over time, upholstery can accumulate stains from spills, food, pet accidents, and more. These stains not only affect the appearance of your furniture but can also emit unpleasant odors. Professional cleaning can effectively remove tough stains and odors, restoring the freshness and beauty of your upholstery.

3. Prolonged Furniture Lifespan: Regular cleaning by professionals helps extend the lifespan of your upholstery. Embedded dirt, dust, and debris can cause premature wear and tear on the fabric fibers, leading to fraying, discoloration, and deterioration. By removing these particles, professional cleaning helps preserve the integrity and longevity of your furniture.

4. Preserved Appearance and Beauty: Professional cleaning can revive the appearance of your upholstery, making it look like new again. It helps remove dirt, grime, and accumulated oils that can dull the fabric’s color and sheen. Regular cleaning helps maintain the beauty of your furniture, enhancing the overall aesthetic appeal of your space.

5. Expertise and Specialized Equipment: Professional upholstery cleaners have the knowledge, expertise, and specialized equipment to effectively clean different types of fabrics and upholstery materials. They are trained to identify the appropriate cleaning methods and products for specific fabrics, ensuring thorough and safe cleaning without causing damage.

6. Safe and Non-Toxic Cleaning: Reputable professional cleaning services prioritize the use of safe and non-toxic cleaning products. They employ environmentally friendly cleaning solutions that are effective in removing stains and dirt while being gentle on the upholstery fabric. This ensures the safety of your family, pets, and the environment.

7. Time and Convenience: Cleaning upholstery can be a time-consuming and labor-intensive task, especially if you don’t have the necessary equipment or expertise. Hiring a professional cleaning service saves you time and effort, allowing you to focus on other priorities while the experts take care of your upholstery.

8. Customized Cleaning Approach: Professional upholstery cleaners offer personalized solutions based on the specific needs of your furniture. They assess the fabric type, condition, and any specific concerns you may have. This tailored approach ensures that your upholstery receives the appropriate cleaning techniques and treatments for optimal results.

Regular Professional Upholstery cleaning is a worthwhile investment to maintain the cleanliness, beauty, and longevity of your upholstery.

Steps We Take In The Upholstery Cleaning Process

Here’s a breakdown of the process from start to finish:

Pre-Inspection: A trained technician will assess the upholstery to determine its condition, fabric type, and any specific areas of concern. They will also identify stains, spots, or areas that require special attention.

Pre-Vacuuming: The technician will use a high-powered vacuum cleaner with upholstery attachments to remove loose dirt, debris, and pet hair from the upholstery surface. This step helps to eliminate surface particles and prepare the fabric for deeper cleaning.

Pre-Treatment: The technician will apply a suitable pre-treatment solution to the upholstery. This solution helps to loosen embedded dirt, stains, and odors. They will pay special attention to heavily soiled areas or stains, ensuring thorough coverage.

Agitation: Using a soft-bristled brush or upholstery cleaning tool, the technician will gently agitate the pre-treatment solution into the fabric. This process helps to further break down dirt and stains, ensuring a more effective cleaning outcome.

Spot Treatment: If there are specific spots or stains that require extra attention, the technician will apply specialized spot treatment solutions to treat and remove them. They will utilize appropriate techniques to address different types of stains, such as pet stains, coffee spills, or ink marks.

Hot Water Extraction: This is the primary cleaning method used for upholstery. The technician will use a portable or truck-mounted hot water extraction machine. The machine sprays hot water mixed with a safe cleaning solution onto the upholstery surface and immediately extracts the solution along with the dirt, allergens, and contaminants, using a powerful vacuum system.

Rinse and Extraction: After the cleaning solution and dirt have been extracted, the technician may perform an additional rinse and extraction process to ensure the removal of any remaining residue or cleaning solution from the upholstery. This step helps prevent any sticky or soapy residue from being left behind.

Drying: The technician will use special drying techniques, such as air movers or fans, to speed up the drying process. They may also use towels or absorbent materials to blot excess moisture from the upholstery. Proper drying is essential to prevent mold or mildew growth and to restore the upholstery’s original texture and appearance.

Post-Inspection: Once the upholstery has dried, the technician will perform a final inspection to ensure the cleaning results meet their high standards. They will address any areas that may require additional attention and ensure that the upholstery is in optimal condition.
