Upholstery Cleaning in East Hampton, NY

East Hampton decorating loves fabric: white slipcovers, striped porch cushions, a linen wingback by the fireplace, a window seat piled with pillows. It looks relaxed and fresh in June. By September it has been through sandy kids, wet dogs, sunscreen and spilled rosé.

Our crew cleans these pieces at your house. There is no hauling furniture out, and most pieces can be used again later the same day.

The process is light on water and gentle on delicate weaves, and it ends with an odor-neutralizing step.

We start with the fabric tag and its cleaning code, then test a hidden corner. This shows whether a fabric is safe for water-based cleaning or needs a different approach.

Slipcovers are common here. Some are best taken off and laundered by you, others are better cleaned on the frame. We will tell you which is which.

Older pieces in historic homes, like a wingback or a settee with horsehair stuffing, need very little moisture and a light hand. We go slowly with those.

Window seats and built-in benches are cleaned in place, including the seams and corners where sand and crumbs collect.

Screened porch and pool cushions pick up mildew dots in the damp sea air. We clean them, treat the odor and can suggest how to store them over the winter.

Armrests, the top of the back and the lip of each seat get pre-treated; hands, hair and lotion leave their mark there.

If something spills before we arrive, blot gently with a white cloth. Rubbing pushes the stain deeper and can fuzz the fabric.

Planning a party? Book a few days ahead so everything is dry and settled before guests sit down.

Summer rentals in the village often come furnished with slipcovered seating that dozens of guests use over a season. A clean in early June and again after Labor Day keeps it looking cared for, which renters notice right away.

Outdoor shower benches and teak chairs with fabric pads are a local staple. The pads hold sand and soap residue, and a rinse-and-extract clean leaves them soft again.

The main couch can join through our East Hampton sofa service, or add area rug cleaning for the rug under the chairs.
