Quick Answer

Professional Sofa Cleaning for Homes & Businesses

eXteam Cleaning provides professional sofa cleaning across West Sussex & nearby Hampshire using fabric-led methods designed to protect textiles, dyes, seams, and cushion fillings. Every sofa is assessed first, with dye stability checks where needed, then cleaned using controlled moisture + high recovery to prevent over-wetting, wicking, water marks, and slow drying.

Serving homes and businesses including Bognor Regis, Chichester, Portsmouth, Worthing and surrounding areas within a 25-mile radius.

Sofa cleaning should be recovery-led — not over-wet and hope it dries.

Why Professional Sofa Cleaning Matters

Sofas collect more than visible dirt. Everyday use pushes body oils, dust, allergens, food residue, and pet contamination deep into the fabric and contact zones — especially on armrests, seat cushions, and head areas.

Professional sofa cleaning restores hygiene and freshness without over-wetting, helping your furniture look better, smell cleaner, and last longer.

Key benefits:

  • Removes built-up oils, grime & allergens

  • Restores colour, texture & comfort in high-use areas

  • Helps reduce odours (pets, damp, smoke, spills)

  • Prevents residue that causes rapid re-soiling

  • Extends the life of fabric and cushions

Real cleaning = deep hygiene + fabric protection — not a quick cosmetic refresh.

Before you book - common upholstery concerns

  • Will my sofa be soaking wet after cleaning? No — we use controlled low-moisture application and high recovery extraction to protect seams and fillings.
  • Can you prevent water marks and drying marks? Fibre-safe method selection and correct finishing reduce risk significantly, especially on absorbent or textured fabrics.
  • What about pet odours? Where contamination is present, we use odour neutralisation at source rather than masking smells.

Our Professional Sofa Cleaning Process

Every sofa is treated as a fabric system, not a generic surface. We begin with assessment, then match the cleaning method to the upholstery type, dye stability and cushion construction — so results are deep, safe, and fast drying.

We identify the fabric, construction and any risk factors before selecting products or moisture level.
Loose dust and abrasive particles are removed first to improve cleaning efficiency and protect the textile.
Cleaning solutions are selected to match fabric type and soiling, then worked in gently to release bonded contamination.
Where suitable, we use controlled extraction with strong recovery. If extraction isn’t appropriate, we apply safer low-moisture methods.
We stabilise the finish, support even drying, and check for consistency before providing simple after-care guidance.

Standards & Methods

Every sofa is cleaned using a standards-led method designed to protect fabrics, control moisture, and deliver consistent results — not rushed wet cleaning.

Safe Sofa Cleaning for Real Homes

Our sofa cleaning is built for real households — kids, pets, daily use, and high-contact areas.

We focus on:

  • Controlled moisture (no soaking)

  • High recovery extraction (fast drying)

  • Fabric-led method selection (protects dyes + texture)

  • Residue control (reduces rapid re-soiling)

Key point: better recovery = faster drying + safer results.

Common Issues We Treat

Results depend on fabric type, dye stability, and how long contamination has been present — but these are issues we handle every day:

  • Food & drink spills (tea, coffee, wine, sauces)
  • Pet accidents, odours & contamination
  • Ground-in dirt, body oils & grime build-up
  • Makeup marks and contact-zone soiling
  • Oil & grease marks
  • Ink & dye transfer (fabric-dependent — assessed before treatment)
Important: Some marks may be permanent if there is dye loss, bleaching, or fibre damage. We always assess first and set clear expectations.

If you’re unsure whether an item or fabric is suitable, we’re happy to advise before booking — especially for delicate textiles, specialist furniture, or antique pieces.

Who This Service Is For

Our sofa cleaning service is ideal for customers who want safe, fabric-led results — not rushed wet cleaning or guesswork.

Ideal for:

  • Homeowners wanting a fresh, hygienic sofa or seating
  • Families with children, pets, or allergy sensitivities
  • Tenants preparing for inspections or end-of-tenancy
  • Landlords and letting agents needing reliable, insured cleaners
  • Businesses requiring professional maintenance for seating areas

Especially useful when:

  • Fabrics look dull, patchy, or “flat” in high-use zones
  • There are spills, body oils, makeup marks, or general traffic grime
  • Pets have left odours or contamination in contact areas
  • Previous cleaning left residue, smells, or drying marks
  • You want safe cleaning without over-wetting seams and fillings

Honest Expectations

Professional sofa cleaning can deliver a dramatic improvement in freshness, hygiene, and appearance — but it can’t reverse everything.

Results depend on:

  • fabric type and dye stability

  • age and wear level of the sofa

  • how long the contamination has been present

  • whether past cleaning left residue or damage

Some marks improve significantly but may not fully disappear if:

  • dye loss or bleaching

  • fibre wear or permanent discolouration

  • deep staining inside cushion fillings

  • heavy abrasion in high-contact zones

We always assess first and explain what’s realistically achievable — including:

  • which areas should respond well to cleaning

  • where permanent wear may remain

  • whether a lower-moisture method is required for safety

  • what level of improvement is realistic for older or heavily used sofas

Our standard is simple: honest assessment, safe method selection, and the best achievable result without damaging the textile.

We’d rather be transparent than promise miracles — because trust matters more than hype.
