Upholstery Cleaning

Dry Steam is one of the most experienced companies in the city when it comes to upholstery. We have a variety of upholstery cleaning techniques.

Upholstry CleaningEach fabric will require a different approach. We will first test the fiber to determine whether it needs to be wet cleaned or dry cleaned, synthetic or natural fibers, and whether it is colorfast. We then vacuum the upholstery thoroughly. The fabric may or may not require pre-spray, but if it does, we will apply pre-spray and work it in with an upholstery brush to suspend the soil. At this point a warm water extraction at low pressure and medium vacuum is used to thoroughly rinse the fabric. Upholstery is very delicate to work with, so don't use just anyone.
