Your upholstered furniture gives you a soft place to sit after a long day, so it’s essential to make it a key component of your housekeeping routine. Housekeeping professionals use special heat and water extraction systems to remove grime from fabrics, breathing new life into your furniture. Here are a few reasons to prioritize cleaning your upholstered pieces. 

Why Your Upholstered Furniture Needs to Be Cleaned

1. Improve Its Appearance

Whether your furniture is dirty from repeated sitting or stained because of food drips or spills, it can become unsightly and uncomfortable for people to sit on. Guests may not feel comfortable resting on dirty furniture, or may shy away from pieces that have stains. Professional housekeeping teams clean all types of grime, improving the aesthetic appeal of your items.

2. Reduce Airborne Allergens

Upholstered furniture can harbor contaminants, including dust, dirt, mold spores, bacteria, and dead skin cells. When people plop down on your sofa, love seat, or armchairs, they release those contaminants into the air, causing eye irritation and aggravated allergies. Luckily, deep cleaning removes allergens, helping keep your indoor air cleaner. 

3. Eliminate Odors 

Food residue, bacteria, and pet stains can create odors. Over time, your home may feel musty. By removing stains and other grime, you whisk away any lingering smells, giving your space a more neutral, pleasant scent.
