Fabric and leather sofas, sectionals and modulars
Whether it is a two-seater, a big family sectional, an L-shaped modular or a leather three-seater, the sofa is the hardest-working seat in the home — and it shows it. Years of body oils, snacks in front of the TV, kids, pets and the occasional spill build up gradually until the fabric looks grey and tired. A proper clean lifts what has accumulated and, on a light sofa, often brings it back a shade or two closer to how it started.
Leather sofas are a different job entirely: a gentle clean and conditioning treatment, never steam, to lift grime and put suppleness back into the hide.
Steam cleaning vs dry cleaning — we pick the right one
Steam cleaning (hot water extraction) is the most thorough method and is ideal for hardy synthetic and blend sofa fabrics — it flushes embedded soil right out. Low-moisture dry cleaning is the safe choice for delicate, moisture-sensitive fabrics like velvet and some wools, where over-wetting risks watermarking or shrinkage. We fabric-test your sofa first and choose accordingly, so you get the deepest clean the material can safely take.
Common sofa problems we fix in Adelaide homes
Most sofa jobs are one of a handful of problems, and each needs a slightly different treatment:
- Dark arms and headrests from body oils and hair products, which need a degreasing pre-treatment before the main clean
- Food, drink and takeaway marks on the seats, often with a sticky residue from a household spray
- Pet hair, dander and a doggy smell on a sofa a pet sleeps on
- Water rings left by a DIY spot clean, which disappear when the whole panel is cleaned evenly
- Kids' texta, pen and the general grime of a family sofa
We assess which of these apply when we arrive, treat them first, then clean the whole sofa so it finishes an even colour.
Getting ready for your sofa clean
There is very little to do. Clear loose items off the sofa, keep pets in another room while we work, and make sure we can reach a power point and a tap. You do not need to vacuum first, as we do that as part of the clean. Afterwards, keep the windows open or a fan running if you can; most sofas are dry within three to six hours.
