Upholstery Cleaning

Your Furniture Deserves a Deep Clean

Your sofa and upholstered furniture see more daily use than almost anything else in your home — and they absorb everything that comes with it. Skin oils, sweat, food spills, pet hair, dust mites, and bacteria accumulate deep in the fabric fibers over time. Regular vacuuming removes surface debris, but it barely scratches the surface of what's actually living in your upholstery.

At Absolute Floors & More, we use professional-grade handheld upholstery cleaning tools paired with our truck-mounted extraction system to deliver a level of clean that no consumer steam cleaner or dry-cleaning spray can match. Our process is safe for virtually all fabric types — microfiber, cotton, linen, velvet, synthetic blends, and more — and we always test a hidden area first to ensure compatibility.

Our Upholstery Cleaning Process

• Fiber identification: We identify the fabric type and check manufacturer cleaning codes.
• Pre-inspection: We note stains, high-wear areas, and any delicate trims or piping.
• Pre-vacuuming: Dry soil, pet hair, and debris are removed before any moisture is applied.
• Pre-treatment: A fabric-appropriate solution is applied to break down oils and soiling.
• Handheld extraction: Our specialized upholstery tool cleans and extracts simultaneously.
• Spot treatment: Stubborn stains receive targeted treatment with appropriate agents.
• Speed drying: Air circulation is promoted to minimize drying time.

What We Clean

We clean virtually any upholstered item in your home or office, including:

Pet Odors and Stains in Upholstery

Pet accidents on upholstery are one of the most common and most challenging cleaning problems we encounter. Urine soaks through the fabric and into the foam padding beneath, where it crystallizes and continues to release odor — especially in humid conditions. Surface cleaning alone won't solve the problem.

Our enzyme-based treatment breaks down the uric acid crystals at the source, neutralizing the odor rather than just masking it. Combined with our deep extraction process, we can often restore furniture that owners had given up on. If you have pets, ask us about our pet treatment add-on when you call for a quote.

How Often Should Upholstery Be Cleaned?

For average households, professional upholstery cleaning every 12–24 months is recommended. Homes with pets, children, or allergy sufferers benefit from annual cleaning. Regular professional cleaning extends the life of your furniture significantly — replacing a quality sofa costs thousands of dollars, while cleaning it costs a fraction of that.
