Upholstery Cleaning Gold Coast | Don't Neglect Your Upholstery

Don’t neglect your lounge room next time you book a professional carpet cleaner. Ensure your lounge room is looking and feeling fantastic with professional upholstery cleaning from The Carpet Surgeon on the Gold Coast.

We often forget to regularly clean our upholstery here on the Gold Coast. It’s usually the carpets that are front of mind when customers consider having a professional clean done. Tenants requiring an end of lease clean, and property owners with families and pets, are usually the people who maintain their carpets the most. Ideally, getting your carpets professionally cleaned every 12 months will ensure their longevity.

But what about upholstery?

More often than not, you only remember to scrub upholstery once it becomes visibly dirty and stained. The issue with this method is that upholstery actually becomes unhygienic and unsafe before it is viewed as “dirty.”

Hiding beneath the surface of your seemingly clean sofa is dust, allergens, mites, and skin cells. This is where it’s important to realise there is a difference between clean and sanitary. Clean means free from dirt and debris, whereas sanitary means free from bacteria. Professional upholstery cleaning can both clean and sanitise your furniture, leaving you breathing a breath of fresh air.

What types of upholstery cleaning services do we offer?

We can clean and sanitise any furniture with fabric or leather coverings. This includes:

• Lounge suites
• Dining chairs and bar stools
• Car seats and interiors
• Boat seats and carpet
• Pillows and cushions
• Mattresses

Fabrics vary from item to item, and some are definitely easier to clean than others. Nevertheless, all upholstery can benefit from regular professional cleans, whether it’s:

• Suede
• Velvet
• Linen
• Cotton
• Vinyl
• Or any other fabric type

Leather Cleaning Services in Gold Coast

At Carpet Surgeon, we are particularly passionate about professional leather cleaning, as when leather is maintained properly, it will last up to 4 times longer than fabric or man-made fibres. Many people who own leather lounges on the Gold Coast do not consider leather cleaning and protection to be as important as fabric. They mistakenly think that spills, dust, and grime won’t soak into the leather as it would in other materials. Over time, leather can crack and dry out, and stains can become more and more difficult to remove.

One of the best defences you have against stains ruining the look, and feel of your leather furniture is a good commercial leather cleaning Gold Coast. We highly recommend that this is followed up with a strong leather protector…

And if it’s fabric you’re looking to protect…

Why is regular upholstery cleaning important?

As we know, hidden bacteria and dirt can cause adverse health implications. Regular professional upholstery cleaning is essential as upholstered surfaces naturally collect pollutants, dust mites, and allergens. These can include mould, bacteria, and certain viruses which are then released into the atmosphere when somebody sits down. While vacuuming and wiping the fabric down yourself can prevent major problems, it will not solve the issues. Regular deep upholstery cleaning removes many more of these organisms than a simple surface clean can.

There are 5 specific reasons why regular upholstery cleaning is important.

1. Health: Cleaning the fibres of your upholstery thoroughly means that the bacteria and other pollutants won’t have the chance to cause allergies and illness. This is particularly important if anyone in the household is sensitive to dust or allergens.

2. Air quality and odours: For most households, the lounge room is where they spend the most amount of time. This means that there is significant potential for stains to occur and bacteria to get into your upholstery. Moving around on these surfaces releases not only the allergens into the air, but unpleasant odours along with them.

3. Appearance: Families with kids and pets are definitely more prone to ugly stains on furniture, but the reality is that anyone with upholstery is likely to suffer from unsightly stains. It is simply the nature of having soft, fabric covered surfaces in the home. Clean upholstery can drastically improve the overall feel and cleanliness of your home environment.

4. Longevity: Furniture can be expensive, so it’s important that it is maintained and cleaned to prolong its life and make the investment worth it. Regular upholstery cleans can also reduce the regular wear and tear.

5. Durability: Along with extending the life of your furniture, you want it to be durable and able to withstand the day to day activities of your family in the home. Faded and thinking furniture is ugly, uncomfortable, and definitely unwanted. Maintaining your fabric through upholstery cleaning is key in ensuring durability.

Why you shouldn’t attempt upholstery cleaning yourself

Most store-bought fabric cleaners promise the world but fail to deliver. Trying to remove a soaked in stain like red wine or chocolate from a light-coloured fabric lounge will be almost impossible on your own. That’s why professional stain removal is essential for maintaining your upholstery.
