FAQs about Upholstery Cleaning
Are store-bought “natural” cleaners safe?
Most are, but always check ingredients and test first. If you’re unsure, ask our pros for a recommendation.
Is upholstery cleaning safe for children and pets?

We use cleaning solutions designed to be safe once the furniture is dry. It is still best to follow any after-care instructions provided.
What is upholstery cleaning?
Upholstery cleaning is the process of removing dirt, dust, stains, allergens, and odors from fabric-covered furniture such as sofas, chairs, loveseats, and sectionals. It helps restore the appearance of the furniture and can also improve indoor cleanliness.
Are your emergency cleaning products safe for my family?
Absolutely. This is something we take very seriously. Because we are a family-owned business, we think about our customers like we think about our own family. We use all-natural, environmentally safe cleaning products. Many people worry that “eco-friendly” means “not as strong,” but that isn’t the case anymore.

Should I vacuum my furniture before upholstery cleaning?
Yes, vacuuming before deep cleaning is helpful because it removes loose dust, crumbs, pet hair, and surface debris. Many professional cleaners do this as part of the service, but regular vacuuming between appointments also helps maintain the furniture.
How often should upholstery be professionally cleaned?
Most upholstery should be professionally cleaned every 12 to 24 months. Homes with pets, children, or heavy furniture use may need cleaning more often, especially if stains, odors, or visible soil build up quickly.
