Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do you clean upholstery?
We have developed a tried-and-tested cleaning process which includes vacuuming, sanitising, stain removal and deodorising your carpets and soft furnishings. The deep cleaning method we apply is hot water extraction, and it deals with the toughest and dirtiest spots on your carpet or fabric upholstery. First we would treat all visible stains with appropriate stain removal product and we would pre-spray the area with solution that would start lifting up the dirt. Then we would perform the actual shampoo and hot water extraction process, using our industrial carpet and upholstery extractor Mytee speedster 500 psi. We can also use odour removal or stain protector on request. Our professional sofa cleaning procedures successfully removes stains, dirt, dust, odour and kills harmful bacteria.
Q: Do you dry the sofas after cleaning?
We can use our dry pods to dry your sofa after cleaning it, although we will not be able to stay long enough for it to dry completely so please allow good ventilation or heating and refrain from using it for the next 4-6 hrs.

Q: How often should I have my sofas professionally cleaned?
Bigger families usually need to clean their sofas more often than small households. Treating the upholstery with professional anti-stain protection products like Scotchguard can also extend the cleanliness of the furnishings. Our specialists at Best Local Carpet Cleaners recommend professional sofa cleaning twice a year. Some clients with messy kids or pets use our services on a monthly basis.
Q: How does hot water extraction cleaning work?
Although the Hot Water Extraction is often called “steam cleaning”, this deep cleaning method for washing carpets and upholstery is different from the standard steam treatment. Here is how it works:
- A solution of hot water and cleaning detergent is sprayed through a high-pressure nozzle deep into the carpet pile.
- Simultaneously, a suction nozzle extracts the liquid along with the dirt, grime, bacteria, and allergens from the threads, leaving the carpet sanitised and refreshed.
Hot water extraction machines absorb around 95% of the liquids. This professional steam cleaning method is suitable for both natural, synthetic and mixed blends fabric. From light sofa maintenance, to professional deep upholstery cleaning, we've got it all covered!
Q: Do you guarantee spots and stain removal?
We are doing our best, and we use professional-grade cleaning products to remove stains from your sofa. However, we cannot promise a complete spot removal every time. Some stains are from substances that can permanently damage or discolour the sofa and chair fibres. The age and type of sofa is also a factor that determines the success of the stain removal procedure. You can check some DIY stain removal tecniques here: Home Stain Treatment.
Q: What stain protection do you offer, and why should I use it?
We will provide a professional-grade stain protection Scotchgard upon your request. The product significantly prolongs the span of the cleanliness of your floorings when applied right after a deep upholstery cleaning. The stain-repellent layer helps considerably extend the life of your sofa when applied.

Q: How long will it take to clean my sofa?
On average, professional steam cleaning takes around 30-40 minutes per sofa. However, the cleaning time can vary depending on the size of the sofa, how many pieces of furniture must be moved, are there any tough stains on your sofa, etc.
Q: What types of carpets and rugs do you handle?
At Best Local Carpet Cleaners we have vast experience in cleaning various types of sofas and soft furnishings.Most sythetic materials, cotton, wool,linen and other durable fabrics can safely be cleaned with our upholstery cleaning extractor, using high temperature, steam and solvent. My team is trained to use lower temperature water to clean delicate fabrics such as wool. You can check the lable of your sofa to be on the safe side (W-water based cleaning; WS-water and solvent; S-solvent only; X- vacuuming only).
Q: What are your prices? How are they calculated? Do you have a minimum call out charge?
Our prices are competitive and based on average size sofas. We normally charge per seat if it’s a sofa. Once we get in touch we would normally ask you how many (and what size) sofas need cleaning. Typical sofa seat normally costs £25-£35 to deep clean but bear in mind minimum call out charges (currently £95) just to cover our expenses. So the more items you add, the bigger the discount. Prices may vary depending on the size of the sofa, the degree of soiling, location, accessibility etc. We are a small family business, so the prices are not subject to VAT or any other extra charges on the day.
