Sofa & Upholstery Cleaning in Manhattan, NYC

Your Sofa Holds More Than You Think

A couch gets used every single day. Body oils, sweat, food, spilled drinks, pet hair and dust sink into the fabric and cushions. Over time, the arms and headrest turn darker, the seat looks flat and dull, and a smell builds up that no spray can fix.

Our IICRC-certified technicians clean sofas and upholstery right in your Manhattan apartment. We test the fabric first, choose the right method, and leave your furniture fresh, clean and odor-free.

Our Upholstery Cleaning Process

1. Fabric check

Every fabric has a cleaning code. Some fabrics can take water, some need low moisture, and some need a special solvent. We check the tag and test a hidden spot first.

2. Vacuum and pre-treatment

We vacuum the cushions, seams and crevices, then pre-treat the arms, headrest and seat — the areas that collect the most body oil.

3. Deep cleaning

A fabric-safe solution and gentle extraction lift soil from deep inside the fabric. We control the moisture carefully, especially around recliner mechanisms and on delicate fabrics.

4. Stain and odor treatment

Food, drinks, makeup, ink and pet accidents. For pet urine we use an enzyme treatment that removes the odor at the source.

5. Grooming and fast drying

We groom the fabric so it dries evenly and looks its best. Most furniture dries fast — usually within a few hours.

Safe for Kids, Pets and Delicate Fabrics

We use organic, plant-based products and rinse the fabric so no sticky residue is left. That matters when kids nap on the couch and pets sleep on the chair. For leather, we clean gently and then condition the leather so it stays soft and does not crack.

When to Clean Your Sofa

Clean sooner if you see dark arms and headrests, notice a smell, or are about to host guests.

Sofa Cleaning FAQ

How long until I can sit on my sofa?

Most furniture dries fast, usually within a few hours. Good airflow — an open window or fan — speeds it up.

Can you clean a microfiber couch?

Yes. Microfiber usually needs a low-moisture method to avoid water rings. We check the fabric code first.

Do you clean leather sofas?

Yes. We clean leather gently and then condition it to keep it soft and help prevent cracking.

Will cleaning remove pet smell?

In most cases, yes. Our enzyme treatment breaks down urine and body-oil odor at the source.
