Family sectionals, hand-me-down student couches and leather sofas brought back to life without leaving your Fordham living room.
Picture a Saturday in a big Fordham household: the game is on, the little ones are building a fort out of the cushions, an aunt is napping on the corner seat. The sectional takes all of it, week after week. Near the campus, the couch in a student share has often outlived several sets of roommates.
Either way, what it needs is a thorough deep clean, and that can be done right where it stands.
A quick fabric test on a hidden spot decides which method we use.
We pull off every cushion and vacuum the frame, the deck and the crevices, where popcorn, coins, hair ties and dog fur pile up. The arms, the lip of each seat and the top of the back, the spots everyone touches, get a pre-treatment.
Most fabrics then get a gentle hot-water rinse and extraction. Delicate weaves are cleaned with a drier method. We do the back and sides too, since dust settles there even if nobody sits on them.
Soda, coffee, cooking grease and tomato sauce are the stains we see most on family sofas. Each one has its own chemistry, so they are handled one at a time rather than with a single all-purpose spray.
Real leather is cleaned with a mild soap and finished with conditioner. Bonded or faux leather is more fragile and can flake if scrubbed, so it gets only a light wipe-down.
Picked up a couch from a stoop sale or a departing roommate? A deep clean clears the dust, the smell and whatever the previous owners spilled. Right before the semester starts is a good time.
Expect four to six hours before it is fully dry. Cracking a window or setting a fan nearby shortens that.
Our solutions are non-toxic and eco-safe, so kids and pets can climb back on once the fabric is dry.
Sectionals with a chaise piece often have the dirtiest spot at the far end where feet rest. We give that end extra attention so the whole sofa matches.
Matching armchairs or an ottoman can be cleaned too; see upholstery cleaning in Fordham.
