Upholstery is one of the hardest-working, most-abused items in any home, and also one of the most neglected. Between popcorn spills, daily body oils, pet hair, and drink mishaps, your sofa is collecting deep-set soil that regular vacuuming can't touch.
We've professionally cleaned numerous upholstery items across Greater Houston, from standard microfiber sofas to premium cotton and velvet family pieces. The right process depends entirely on the fabric. Misstep and you'll shrink, ring, or bleach the material. Get it right and it looks like the day you bought it.

A vacuum removes what sits on the surface. It doesn't touch what's embedded in the fabric. Here's how to see for yourself in about 60 seconds.
A white terry cloth works best — you want to see what comes off.
Hold the towel tightly over the attachment hose. Grip firmly so it doesn't get sucked in.
With the vacuum on, work the towel across the arms, seats, and back of your sofa or chair.
Pull the towel off. If there's a dark ring where the suction pulled the fabric, it's time for a professional clean.
Upholstery fabric is thin and each type has its own cleaning rules. We identify the fiber before we start, then match the process to the material.
Common, durable, and tricky — shows water rings easily. We use low-moisture methods and careful drying.
Natural and absorbent. Can shrink or brown if cleaned wrong. We use fiber-safe pre-treatment and controlled moisture.
Elegant, breathable, water-sensitive. Requires minimal moisture and expert hand-detailing — our specialty.
The most common modern upholstery. Handles deeper cleaning well — ideal for households with kids or pets.
Plush and comfortable, but mats quickly. We restore pile direction and lift crushed fibers during grooming.
Luxurious and easily crushed. We use low-agitation methods and brush the nap back to its original direction.
Stain-resistant and tough, but holds oily soils. Our pre-spray breaks the bond so extraction gets the rest.
Delicate and sensitive to heat, alkalinity, and agitation. Hand-detailed with wool-safe solutions.
Upholstery is too delicate to skip steps. Here's the exact process on every job.
We identify the fabric type, check color-fastness, inspect seams, and flag any pre-existing damage. Nothing gets cleaned until we know exactly what we're working with.
We go through every panel, cushion, crevice, and seam with our vacuum, pulling out pet hair, dust, crumbs, and dry soil before any liquid touches the fabric.
A treatment solution matched to your fabric is applied consistently. We apply spot treatment to stains and spills.
Soft-bristle hand grooming works the treatment into the carpet to extract deep-set soil without harming or over-moistening the fabric.
Low-moisture extraction extracts soil and solution, then we restore the nap and deploy air movers. Most pieces are ready for use within 2 to 4 hours.
The best time to apply fabric protector is right after cleaning, when the fibers are open. See how it works below →
Once we've cleaned your upholstery, the fibers are open, clean, and ready to accept a topical treatment. It attaches to each fiber, forming an invisible shield, one that allows you to blot up spills before they penetrate.
Ask about protector when you book — we'll quote it as an optional add-on, no pressure.

Yes. We determine the fiber type first, then customize our cleaning method accordingly. microfiber, cotton, linen, polyester, chenille, velvet, olefin, wool, each has its own cleaning rules. We'll walk you through what's safe for your piece at your complimentary consultation.
Most pieces are usable again in 2 to 4 hours. Our low-moisture extraction removes more water than portable units, so fabrics come out damp, not soaked. We set up air movers before we leave to accelerate drying.
That's it. That's the guarantee. No forms to fill out, no hoops to jump through. If anything about our work doesn't meet your expectations, call us and we'll re-clean it — on the house.
