Tired of the old look of your favorite sofa? Hate that stubborn stain on the couch? Tired of scrubbing and rubbing? Don’t worry! Here are some useful tips and tricks that will help you keep your upholstery clean. These tips are tried and tested. You won’t need a lot of fancy ingredients and expensive equipment. Also, you won’t need any help from upholstery cleaning services.
Make Dusting Your Best Friend
The first step to upholstery cleaning is thorough dusting. Make regular dusting a habit. Get rid of all the dust by vacuuming the fabric surfaces of your furniture with the help of an upholstery attachment. Dusting not only helps you remove dust but also removes those tiny bread crumbs and dirts. When you vacuum your upholsteries regularly, dust and dirt don’t get the chance to get more embedded. You can also use brushes that come with soft bristles to clean your fabric couches and sofas. If you’re someone who loves leather upholsteries, use soft clothes to clean them.
Clean Any Stain or Spot as Soon as Possible
Now, there lies the trick. Clean the spot or stain as soon
as you discover it. The more you delay, the more difficult it becomes to remove
them. They behave just like some stubborn teenagers. If someone spills wine or
any other liquid accidentally, don’t rush into rubbing it. Absorb it. Use a
white piece of cloth to absorb the spill. Absorb as long as the cloth takes the
color of the liquid. Now, you can try
cleaning the stain. A mixture of white vinegar and water at 1:1 ratio is a good
option to remove lighter stains. For the stubborn ones, you may use a
spot-treatment spray. If you use the right tool and treatment, removing spots
might seem difficult, but not impossible.
Another Secret to Upholstery Cleaning: Bicarbonate
After a few years, your sofas and couches lose the new look
and smell. Now, you can make your upholsteries look like new ones with the help
of this magic ingredient called bicarbonate. While cleaning any of your fabric
surfaces with this little secret ingredient, you will need just a handful of
bicarbonate and a vacuum cleaner, But remember to try cleaning with bicarbonate
on a lazy day as it would need some time to show the result.
First, take a sponge and some diluted dish soap to get rid
of the stain. As said earlier, never rub a stain. Rubbing makes it worse. Rather
pat it with the sponge. Once you are done, use a paper towel to blow dry it,
If the stain is still there, try any popular spot-cleaner
available in the market. Once you’re satisfied with the result, vacuum the
upholstery.
Now, it’s time to sprinkle the bicarbonate on the fabric and
leave it for around 30 minutes.
After the time is over, vacuum the soft-furnishings once
again to ensure that no specs of bicarbonate remain on the sofa,

Same Day Service May Be Available! Call Early & Ask!
Very pleased with the work done by Gary and his team! We had the carpet in our new home cleaned prior to move in. They were able to come out the same day I called, and they did a wonderful job on our carpet. Since the previous owners had pets, we wanted to be sure there were no lingering issues or odors before moving in with our own pets. They were so courteous and the carpets look so much better! The impressions from furniture are barely visible any longer, and they pulled a lot of pet hair out of the carpet with the cleaning that remained despite my vacuuming. We would not hesitate to use this company again for any cleaning services they offer.

We had a large protein shake spill on our carpet and found it was very difficult to get out, particularly the smell. After about a week of trying to shampoo it on our own, we decided to enlist professional help. Gary was able to fit us in the same day we called. He and his team were very conscientious, knowledgeable and enjoyable to work with. They also took the time to explain the process of how they were going to treat the carpet. Given the type of spill it was and that it had been in the carpet for almost a week before calling, they offered to come out an additional time to treat it, if needed. Advance Carpet Care saved us from having to replace our carpet. We are very appreciative to them and highly recommend them to anyone in need of carpet cleaning services.
