“David promptly responded to our request for inspection, called when he was en route, and arrived on time. He used a drone to examine the chimney exterior and a camera for the interior, provided a copy of the inspection video, and presented a range of options for prioritizing the repairs. Excellent value, highly recommend!”

What is included
Furniture takes more abuse per square inch than carpet and hides it better. An upholstery cleaning visit covers the whole piece, not just the seat cushions.
Quality, care and expertise
The latest deep cleaning technology penetrates the fabric and extracts dirt and grime, leaving upholstery spotlessly clean.
Cleaning solutions that are safe for the environment and your health, preserving the fabric while protecting the planet.
Regular professional cleaning extends the life of your furniture and keeps its appearance and comfort for years.
Every piece is treated with the utmost care, so every nook, seam and crevice comes out pristine.
Techniques tailored to the specific material and condition of each piece, not one wand for everything.
Our commitment to excellence means you are completely satisfied with the result, every time.
Why it matters
It gets sat on daily, slept on weekly and cleaned almost never. A few facts on why that matters.
About 20 million people in the United States are allergic to dust mites, which feed on shed skin and collect in fabric that is warm and used often, exactly the description of a couch cushion or a mattress.
Source: Asthma and Allergy Foundation of AmericaFurniture makers label upholstery W for water based cleaning, S for solvent only, WS for either and X for vacuum only. Using water on an S fabric causes rings, shrinkage and bleeding. Reading the code is step one of professional upholstery cleaning.
Source: Furniture industry standard cleanability codesThe IICRC S300 standard sets out how textile upholstery should be inspected, tested and cleaned. As an IICRC Certified Firm we train to it and keep the certification current through continuing education.

Fabric fades into its dirt gradually, which is why most people are shocked by the color of the rinse water.
Body oil and hair product build up where skin touches the fabric. It looks like shading until you compare it with the back panel.
A spilled drink that was blotted still left sugar behind, and sugar attracts and holds soil.
Oils and dander soak into foam. Fabric spray does not reach it. Extraction and enzyme treatment do.
A mattress collects skin flakes, sweat and mites for years. Cleaning it is one of the highest impact things you can do for bedroom air.
Crushed pile and a rough hand mean grit is abrading the fibers every time someone sits down.
A great find on Marketplace arrives with an unknown history. Clean it before it comes inside.
Body oils and dust wear fibers from the inside. Yearly cleaning keeps fabric looking new far longer.
Fresh furniture changes how a whole room reads, in person and in photos.
How it works
We locate the cleaning code, test for colorfastness and check for loose seams or previous damage. Then you get a firm written price for each piece.
Everything gets vacuumed thoroughly, including under the cushions. Pre treatment goes on the soiled zones and sits.
Hot water extraction for W and WS fabrics, because it gives the deepest clean of any method, low moisture for S coded pieces, vacuum and spot work only for X. Loose cushions are done on both sides. When a fabric needs a more delicate system, we help you choose what suits the piece.
Nap is set, air movers run while we pack up, and we point out anything that may leave a faint shadow, like old ink or bleach spots.
The equipment we use
Fabric needs controlled heat, controlled pressure and instant recovery. That takes real equipment, not a rental.

Why Green and Clean
Upholstery is where cheap cleaning does the most damage. Too much water shrinks a cover. Wrong chemistry bleeds a dye. We see ruined pieces every month that a coupon crew got to first. Our commitment is simple: the job is not finished until you are completely satisfied with the result, every time.
| What matters | Green and Clean | Typical coupon service |
|---|---|---|
| Fabric check | Care code read and colorfastness tested on every piece | Same wand and solution on everything |
| Delicate fabrics | Low moisture and solvent methods for velvet, silk and blends | Declined, or soaked and shrunk |
| Products | Puracy and ProSafe, plant based, pet safe, low odor | Strong detergents that leave stiff, perfumed fabric |
| Dry time | 2 to 6 hours with air movement | Overnight or longer, with a wet dog smell |
IICRC Certified Firm
Hiring an IICRC Certified Firm means trusting your upholstery to people who clean it correctly, with the right tools and knowledge, and who spent countless hours studying for and passing an extensive exam on the proper cleaning and inspection of upholstery. The Institute of Inspection Cleaning and Restoration Certification is the non profit standards body for the industry, and its S300 standard is the rulebook for upholstery.
Founded in 1972 by Ed York as the International Institute of Carpet and Upholstery Cleaning, the IICUC. Upholstery has been in the name from day one.
More than 49,000 active Certified Technicians and more than 6,500 Certified Firms worldwide clean to IICRC standards. We are one of them, and it is verifiable online.
We recertify through examination or continuing education credits every three years, so the methods we use on your fabric are current, not what worked a decade ago.
Pricing
Furniture is priced by the piece, and pieces vary a lot. Here is what we look at during the walk through, and you get a firm written price before any work starts.
A two cushion loveseat is a short job. A seven seat sectional with chaise and loose back pillows is most of an afternoon.
W coded synthetics clean fast with extraction. Silk, velvet and S coded natural fibers need slower low moisture work and more care.
Accidents that soaked into foam need enzyme treatment on the cushion core, which adds time and product.
Call the emergency line. Small jobs often fit into the same day route across Lake, Geauga and eastern Cuyahoga county.

FAQ
Sofas, loveseats, sectionals, recliners, armchairs, ottomans, dining chairs, headboards, mattresses and box springs. We also clean fabric office chairs and boat or RV cushions on request.
Typically 2 to 6 hours. The cleaning method and an optional fabric protector application set the drying time. Hot water extraction on a synthetic fabric dries fastest. Thick cotton or a mattress runs toward the longer end. We leave air movers running while we finish up.
We are asked this a lot, and the honest answer is no, we do not steam clean furniture. We use hot water extraction, which people often call steam cleaning because of the steam you see while we work. Actual steam would set stains and damage many fabrics.
Yes. A fabric protector is an optional add on that helps spills bead up instead of soaking in and makes the next cleaning easier. It adds a little to the dry time, and we quote it separately so you can decide piece by piece.
Yes. Finished leather is cleaned and conditioned with products made for it, not with extraction. Suede and nubuck are evaluated piece by piece, and we will tell you honestly if a piece should go to a specialist.
In most cases, yes. Odor that has soaked into the foam core requires enzyme treatment and longer dwell time. If a cushion has been repeatedly saturated, replacing the foam insert may be the honest answer, and we will say so.
Once a year for a family room sofa or any piece pets use. Every 18 to 24 months for formal furniture that sees light use. Mattresses benefit from cleaning every year or two.
Yes. We use plant based Puracy shampoo and ProSafe pre spray, extract the solution back out, and the furniture is dry within hours. Nothing sticky or perfumed is left behind.
