Upholstery cleaning in Durham tailored to your furnishings

Different fabrics require different treatments; your upholstery cleaners in Durham have the tools and skills to complete any of the following:

Hot water extraction cleaning

Inspection - Your technician will inspect the fabric to confirm that it's suitable for water-based cleaning. They'll then prepare the upholstery cleaning machine used to deliver hot water and detergent to the fabric. This equipment and the cleansing agents used for your sofa cleaning are specifically designed for the professional cleaning industry.

Pre-treatment - A upholstery cleaning detergent selected to be suitable for the fabric and the nature of the agent causing any staining is pre-applied to spotted or very dirty areas.

The main clean - Hot water and detergent are injected into the material and then extracted by suction, along with dirt and bacteria dissolved in the water. The power of the tool used allows around 95% water extraction, greatly reducing drying time when compared to domestic wet vacuum cleaners.

Dry cleaning

Solvent dry cleaning is the preferred cleaning method for delicate fabrics. It's effective at removing every day, or even ingrained dirt but not as powerful as water-based cleaning. Above all, this is a gentle method of refreshing materials that will be damaged by water. Stains or especially dirty areas are pre-treated with a suitable specialist dry cleaning solvent before the whole piece is cleaned. As with wet cleaning, the solvent is introduced into the fabric under pressure, then extracted by suction.

Leather cleaning

The cleansers used for leather furnishings are top of the line. Your upholstery cleaners in Durham will examine the piece and tell you what results they expect to achieve. This may involve test cleaning a small, non-visible area to see how much dirt comes off. A foam leather cleaner is applied, left for a few minutes to absorb dirt, then gently brushed to ensure even distribution of the foam. The cleaner and dirt are wiped off with a clean cotton cloth, then a conditioning and rejuvenating spray are applied to the furniture. This locks in the result of the cleaning and acts as a protective layer in the future.
