Couch cleaning for East Village walk-ups and shared apartments, done right in your living room, so the sofa you fought up the stairs never has to move again.
Everyone in the East Village has a couch story. It got stuck on the third-floor landing, it came in through a window, or the legs had to come off to fit through the door. Once it is in, it stays.
So the cleaning comes to the couch. Coins, crumbs and hair are vacuumed out of the crevices first. Each mark is then treated on its own, and the whole piece, from the cushions to the skirt, gets a deep clean chosen for that particular fabric.
In an apartment with roommates, nothing works harder than the couch. People eat dinner on it, take calls on it, nap on it and let friends crash on it after a late night on Avenue A. That is why the middle seat usually looks darker than the two ends.
Futons and pull-out sleepers fill a lot of small East Village living rooms. The futon pad and the frame cushions are cleaned in place, and a fold-out mattress can be sanitized in the same appointment.
Then there are the dogs. After an hour at the Tompkins Square dog run, they jump straight onto the cushions. We brush and vacuum the fur out of the weave before any liquid touches it, then work an odor treatment into the padding. The products are non-toxic, so your dog can supervise.
Fabric decides the method. A cotton slipcover, a velvet thrift find and a microfiber sectional from a big-box store all react differently, so we try our solution on a hidden patch and go from there.
Moving out, or selling the couch to the next tenant? A cleaning makes it much easier to pass on.
Velvet and corduroy couches from vintage shops are popular here. The pile on those fabrics crushes easily, so we use a low-moisture method and brush the nap back into line as it dries.
Give it a few hours to dry. Open the window, point a fan at it, and save the cushion naps for the evening.
