Upholstery Cleaning in Toa Payoh New Town

Leather needs a different process — pH-balanced leather cleaners and conditioners, never hot water extraction. Many fabric-sofa cleaners also offer leather care, but confirm they carry proper leather products and have done aniline vs protected leather before.

Every 12-18 months for a family sofa in daily use, more often with pets, kids or allergies. Mattresses benefit from annual cleaning to reduce dust mites and allergens. Between cleans, vacuum upholstery weekly with an upholstery attachment.

In Toa Payoh New Town, pricing scales with seat count and fabric condition — an armchair is the cheapest job, a large sectional the most expensive. Ask for per-piece pricing in writing and check whether stain treatment and deodorising are included or extra.

Yes — hot water extraction removes dust mites, dander, and allergen load from fabric and mattresses, and is one of the more effective interventions for allergy sufferers alongside HEPA vacuuming and washable covers.

Fabric protector (fluoropolymer-based) applied to a freshly cleaned sofa buys you time to blot spills before they absorb. It is worthwhile on light-coloured family sofas; skip it on rarely used or dark pieces. It wears off and needs reapplying after each deep clean.

Usually per piece or per seat: an armchair costs less than a 3-seater sofa, and sectionals/L-shapes are priced by the number of seats. Mattresses are priced by size. Heavily soiled fabric, pet treatment, and stain protection are common add-ons.

Without aircon, damp fabric can stay wet for a day and risk mildew smell. Run the aircon in dry mode or a dehumidifier plus fan — that brings drying to 3-5 hours. Book cleaning in the morning so it dries before night.
