Is your sofa or couch in your living room looking
dirty and shabby? You cannot buy new furniture as
youre short on budget? Why dont you try
cleaning your sofa yourself or hire professional
cleaners to the job for you? Hiring professional
help is a lot cheaper than you think. Even, DIY
(Do It Yourself) upholstery cleaning can bring a
smile on your face when you see the results of
regular upholstery cleaning.   Here are a few DIY
tips for upholstery cleaning
3

•  
• Absorb The Stain Immediately
•  
• Try not to give stains a chance to set in. It's
  imperative to act rapidly if theres a spill. Use
  a dry white permeable cloth or white paper towels
  to blot liquids. Touch, don't rub, or you might
  harm the texture. Begin at the outside of the
  spot and proceed toward the middle to keep the
  stain from spreading. Blot until it becomes
  completely damp. Gather up any semi-solids like
  food spills with newspaper.

• Vacuum The Furniture
•  
• You need to utilise all the attachments that come
  with your vacuum cleaner to clean the upholstery.
  It will remove all the loose dust particles, pet
  hair and different debris that can make your
  furniture dirtier.

• Identify The Different Types Of Stains
•  
• Food particles, wine stains, soil, pee of your
  kids or pets, coffee stains and different other
  types of stains react well to steam cleaning.
  More stubborn stains may require more than one
  cleaning session. To expel oil-based or other
  difficult to remove stains, you need to apply
  chemical based cleaners.

6

• Read Furniture Upholstery Labels
•  
• Check cushions for fabric care labels or
  directions, before you use upholstery cleaner on
  your furniture. These will explain you what
  cleaning chemicals should be used and how to use.
  If theres no label on the upholstery, then you
  can search online for the manufacturers
  instructions. To test for damage and
  colour-fastness, you can spot check a small,
  hidden area of the fabric with the chemical
  cleaner.

7

• Getting A Steam Cleaner On Rent
•  
• Would it be a good idea for you to purchase or
  rent? Getting the cleaner on rent is a better
  idea, if you have no plans to utilise the steamer
  more than twice a year. Search for a steam
  cleaner that comes with wheels and can be moved
  effortlessly. It ought to be sufficiently
  lightweight to move up the stairs. Search for
  attachments meant for cleaning hard-to-reach
  spots easily. Buying steamers is not a viable
  idea. Hiring professional service that offers
  upholstery cleaning in Sydney can save you from
  the hassles of cleaning your house.

Upholstery Cleaning Cost If you decide to go for
DIY upholstery cleaning then it will not only
prove costly, but you wont be able to produce
excellent results as well. However, professional
upholstery cleaner Sydney will charge a
reasonable amount of money and deliver unmatched
services.
