Upholstery Care
The furniture and floors in your home or office are often two of your largest investments. Many remember to have their carpets professionally cleaned, but they often forget their upholstery also needs regular professional care. As with carpet, there are many ways to clean upholstery. Unlike carpet, hot water extraction is not the best cleaning method, as it can be damaging to the fabric. Most upholstery is made from natural fibers which may be very sensitive to hot water and over-wetting.
At Dome Cleaning, Inc., we use a dry foam method. Because it uses very little water, it is safe for any material (like silk, wool, chenille, damask, leather, microfiber, cotton blend, velvet, etc) and most dyes.
The only fabrics we don't clean are rayon or viscose. These "fake silk" fabrics have incredibly weak fibers, causing them distort, shed/matte easily, release dyes when exposed to water, and yellow when exposed to moisture and light..
Here is a description of some of our services:
- IICRC Certified Upholstery Cleaning: Our dry foam cleaning services will help to make your fabric furniture look like new. This is recommended annually for regular use furniture, and more often for high traffic furniture (such as lobby furniture) or furniture that you share with your pets.
- Spot Cleaning: Did your neighbor spill Cabernet Sauvignon on your couch? Did the baby vomit on the pillow? Give Dome Cleaning, Inc. a call for professional spot cleaning in between your regular professional cleaning appointments.
- Upholstery Protectant:
When you purchase new upholstered furniture, it often comes treated with a protector. Over time, this protection wears off. Having the protector reapplied after each professional cleaning not only helps to preserve the color, beauty, and life of your upholstery, but it also gives you extra time to clean up spills before they turn into stains.
- Leather Furniture Care: Our technicians can apply a quality leather conditioner to help keep your leather furniture supple and soft. This service is recommended annually to help to prevent early wear and cracks in the leather.
- Deodorizers:
Strong odors often remain after urine, feces, vomit, sour milk and other organic materials get on your upholstery. If not cleaned properly, your upholstery will retain the smell until cleaned by an enzyme. Enzymes work by actually digesting the organic matter that's causing the smell - leaving your furniture smelling good again.

“…While replacing 15 fire sprinklers in my ceiling, a construction crew first cvered the sofas with greasy handprints then completely splattered them with rusty water. Animals! The story has a happy ending. A certified master textile cleaner from Dome took two visits (one on a holiday) to restore both sofas to mint condition, and the construction goons will eat the cost. For any of your customer’s cleaning needs, I heartily endorse the professional services of Barney Kelly at Dome Cleaning, Inc.." |
