Expert Upholstery Cleaning in Leeds and West Yorkshire
To keep your furniture clean, it's necessary to conduct routine maintenance (e.g. vacuuming, immediate attention to spills), coupled with periodic cleaning by a certified technician every 12 to 18 months. Furniture and fabric manufacturers recommend that consumers not wait until severe soiling occurs before cleaning because the greater the soiling, the less the likelihood of restoring the fabric's original colour, appearance and texture; and the greater adverse effect on indoor environmental quality.
Regular cleaning of fabric and leather furnishings by a trained, certified professional cleaner can help restore your furniture's appearance, extend its life, and keep it looking like new. Moreover, certified professionals can offer simple suggestions to maintain a clean and healthy home or business environment overall.
Before cleaning any upholstery we always carry out a free survey to check for the following:
- Colour Fastness
- Shrinkage
- Fabric Distortion
This will establish if the fabric is wet or dry cleanable, if the dyes are stable enough to use acid or alkaline products and finally to determine which method of cleaning will give the very best results.
