Sofa Cleaning in Long Island City, Queens

In a one-bedroom by the river, the sofa is where you eat, work, watch TV and nap. It is also where the dog sleeps when you are at work. After a year or two, the seat cushions sag, the arms look shiny, and there is a faint smell you stop noticing.

We clean sofas in place. That matters here, because moving a big sectional in and out of a tower or a walk-up is hard work and not always allowed.

Sectionals and modular sofas are popular in newer apartments. We clean every piece, including the backs and sides that face the room. Removable covers can stay on, because washing covers in a home machine often shrinks them.

Pet hair is the first step. We remove as much as we can before any cleaning solution goes on, so the hair does not turn into mats in the fabric.

Food and drink stains are common on a sofa that doubles as a dining table. Fresh stains come out more easily, so if you spill, blot it with a dry towel and tell us when you book.

Many LIC sofas came flat-packed and were built in the apartment. They often have lighter fabric and less padding, and they can take water stains if they get too wet. We keep moisture low on these.

Leather and faux leather sofas need cleaning and conditioning, not shampoo. We look at the material before quoting so you know which service fits.

Sofa beds are common in small apartments that host guests. We can clean the sofa part and, if you open it up, look at the mattress inside too. Sofa bed mattresses are thin, so we keep them very dry.

Sun from large tower windows can fade one side of a sofa. Cleaning will not bring back color the sun took, but it does remove the gray film of dust and oil that makes fabric look older than it is.

After cleaning, keep the sofa uncovered and let air move around it. Most fabric sofas dry in a few hours. A fan, an open window or running the air conditioning speeds this up.

When you call, tell us the size of the sofa, how many seat and back cushions it has, and whether pets use it. A couple of phone photos help too. With that, we can give you a clear free quote and bring the right tools the first time.

If your accent chairs or ottoman match the sofa, add them through our upholstery cleaning. For carpet under the sofa, see carpet cleaning.
