Cleaning results vary depending on fabric type, material condition, and stain characteristics. Some stains or discolorations may be permanent and cannot be fully removed through professional cleaning.
Before cleaning begins, we evaluate the material and explain realistic expected results. Professional cleaning improves cleanliness and appearance but does not restore damaged materials or reverse fabric wear, fading, or structural deterioration.

Couch & Rug Cleaning
Max arrived and immediately began to work. He did an amazing job at cleaning my 4 seater couch and my area rug. Everything looks brand new. He was even able to remove stains from my cream color rug. I highly recommend Max for anyone who needs any upholstery cleaning.

I've used the service about 5 times (couches after large events, rugs, etc). Always excellent. On time, extremely professional, and the results are consistently way better than I would have thought possible.

Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to the most common questions about professional sofa and upholstery cleaning, including steam cleaning, disinfection, drying time, stain removal, and service details in NYC.
Cleaning time depends on the sofa size, fabric type, and level of soiling and is determined on-site after inspection.
Smaller or lightly soiled sofas may require less time, while larger or heavily used items can take longer.Drying time depends on fabric type, ventilation, and indoor humidity. On average, sofas dry within 6–12 hours. Light use is often possible sooner.
Stain removal depends on the stain type, how long it has been present, and the upholstery material. We use professional stain-treatment methods, but complete removal cannot be guaranteed in every case.
We use professional, fabric-appropriate cleaning solutions and follow proper dilution, rinsing, and extraction procedures to help minimize residue.
We take a practical and transparent approach to cleaning safety. Products and methods are selected case by case, and in some situations cleaning may be performed using hot water or steam only.
If you have allergies or specific concerns, please let us know in advance.
You can read a full explanation of our process on our Cleaning Safety & Product Use page.Pricing depends on sofa size, configuration, fabric type, and level of contamination. Optional add-on services or additional furniture items may be combined to reach the minimum service charge of $150 per visit.
Yes. Pet urine treatment is one of our specialties in NYC. We use enzymatic pre-treatment with cold water extraction, since hot water and steam chemically bond urine proteins to fabric fibers — this is the main reason DIY methods and standard steam cleaning often make the smell come back. Every case is different, so we evaluate realistic results only after on-site assessment of your couch. For the full process and what to expect, read our complete pet urine removal guide for NYC.

How Professional
Sofa Cleaning Works
Professional sofa cleaning in NYC begins with an on-site inspection of the upholstery to identify fabric type, construction, and areas of heavy soiling. This allows the cleaning method — hot water extraction, steam, or dry cleaning — to be selected based on what the material actually requires. The process continues with deep extraction cleaning, where professional equipment removes embedded dirt, dust, allergens, and residues from the sofa fabric. Targeted stain treatment is applied when needed, based on the nature and age of the stain. The final stage includes moisture extraction to reduce drying time — most sofas are dry within 6–12 hours. This structured approach maintains the appearance of upholstered furniture and delivers hygienic cleaning results in apartments and homes across New York City.

How We Remove Pet Hair
from Sofas and Upholstery
Pet hair removal from upholstery — especially in NYC apartments with cats or dogs — is a multi-step process. Hair gets trapped deep between fabric fibers and cannot be fully removed by vacuuming alone. Our process includes: - Manual removal using specialized brushes and tools to loosen hair from the fabric - Professional vacuum extraction to remove loosened hair and debris - Deep upholstery cleaning matched to your fabric type, removing embedded dirt, remaining hair, and pet odor - Surface inspection to confirm results before we finish In most cases, professional pet hair removal achieves 85–90% clearance — significantly more than household vacuuming. Complete removal of every fiber is not always possible: fine hair can become deeply embedded depending on fabric type and how long it has been there. The remaining small amount of fibers typically works its way to the surface through normal everyday use — and is easily removed during your next regular vacuuming.
Why does standard vacuuming fail to remove embedded pet hair? Read our complete pet hair removal guide for NYC sofas.
