Every Fabric. Every Piece.

We check the manufacturer's cleaning code on every piece before we start. Different fabrics require different methods — and we know how to handle them all safely.

Sofas & Sectionals

Full-size couches, L-shaped sectionals, and modular configurations. We clean cushions, back panels, armrests, and base fabric — everything that contacts you daily.

Most Popular

Chairs & Recliners

Accent chairs, armchairs, recliners, and club chairs. High-contact surfaces cleaned thoroughly, with extra attention to headrests and armrests where oils accumulate.

All Styles

Dining & Office Chairs

Upholstered dining chairs, desk chairs, and office seating. These often get overlooked but accumulate significant body oils and food residue over time.

Frequently Neglected

Ottomans & Loveseats

Footrests, storage ottomans, and smaller loveseats. Perfect add-on items when cleaning a main sofa — we bundle pricing when cleaning multiple pieces in one visit.

Bundle & Save

Delicate & Natural Fabrics

Velvet, silk blends, linen, wool, and microfiber. These "S-code" fabrics require solvent-based or dry cleaning methods — we identify and use the correct approach every time.

Specialty Care

Pet-Affected Upholstery

Pet hair deeply embedded in fabric, urine odors, and dander buildup. We pre-treat with enzyme-based solutions that break down pet odor at the molecular level — not just mask it.

Enzyme Treatment

Our 5-Step Upholstery Cleaning Process

We follow IICRC best practices adapted specifically for upholstery. Every fabric behaves differently — our process ensures the right treatment for every piece in your home.

Step 1

Fabric Inspection & Cleaning Code Check

We check every piece for the manufacturer's cleaning code — W (water-based), S (solvent-only), WS (either), or X (vacuum only). We also test for colorfastness on a hidden area before applying any solution. This step protects your furniture from damage.

Step 2

Pre-Vacuuming & Dry Soil Removal

Before any liquid touches your furniture, we vacuum every surface thoroughly — including crevices, under cushions, and along seams. Removing dry soil first prevents it from turning to mud during wet cleaning, which can cause resoiling and deeper staining.

Step 3

Pre-Treatment & Spot Work

Problem areas — food stains, pet accidents, oil spots, drink spills — are pre-treated with targeted solutions before the main cleaning. For pet odors, we apply enzyme-based deodorizers that break down uric acid at the source rather than simply masking the smell.

Step 4

Deep Cleaning — Right Method for Your Fabric

Water-safe fabrics (W-code) are cleaned with hot water extraction at lower pressure — gentler than carpet cleaning but equally effective. Solvent-only fabrics (S-code) are dry-cleaned with pH-neutral solvents. We never use the wrong method just because it's faster.

Step 5

Final Grooming, Speed-Dry & Inspection

We groom the fabric to restore nap and texture, then use air movers to accelerate drying — most pieces are dry in 2–4 hours. Before we leave, we walk through every piece with you to confirm you're satisfied with the results.

What's Included With Every Upholstery Cleaning

No surprise upsells after we arrive. Here's exactly what every upholstery cleaning appointment covers.

Pre-Inspection & Fabric Test

Cleaning code verification, colorfastness spot test, and identification of problem areas — before any cleaning begins.

Full Pre-Vacuuming

Every surface vacuumed — including crevices, seams, and under cushions — to remove dry soil before wet cleaning.

Pre-Treatment of Stains

Targeted pre-treatment on food stains, oil spots, and soiled high-contact areas prior to the main cleaning pass.

Deep Cleaning Pass

Full extraction or dry-cleaning treatment using the method appropriate to your fabric's care code — never a one-size-fits-all approach.

Speed-Dry Assist

Air movers positioned to accelerate drying time. Most upholstery is dry and usable within 2–4 hours of cleaning.

Optional Add-On: Pet Odor Enzyme Treatment

For furniture with pet odors, we apply enzyme-based deodorizers that permanently neutralize pet urine and dander odors at the molecular level.

What NE Ohio Homeowners Are Saying

Real reviews from real customers across Aurora, Hudson, Solon, and surrounding communities.

★★★★★

Our sectional looked brand new after SK Cleaning finished with it. We have two dogs and the odor was getting embarrassing when guests came over. They pre-treated everything and the smell is completely gone — not just covered up. Couldn't be more pleased.

★★★★★

I was worried about having my velvet chairs cleaned because I'd heard horror stories about shrinkage and fading. Steve checked the cleaning code, tested a hidden spot, and explained exactly what he'd use. The chairs look perfect. That's the kind of professionalism you want.

Rachel K.

★★★★★

Had them clean the couch and loveseat the same day as the carpets. The bundled price was very fair and everything was done in under 3 hours. Dried faster than I expected too. I'll be scheduling them again next year without question.

Upholstery Cleaning FAQ

Everything NE Ohio homeowners ask before booking their first upholstery cleaning appointment.

Most sofas take 30–60 minutes to clean. A full sectional or multiple pieces may take 1.5–2 hours. Drying time is typically 2–4 hours depending on fabric type and ventilation — significantly faster than DIY methods.
Yes — when done correctly. We inspect and test every fabric before cleaning. Different codes (W, S, WS, X) require different methods. We use the appropriate low-moisture or solvent-based technique for each piece to avoid shrinkage, fading, or ring marks.
Absolutely. We pre-vacuum to remove embedded pet hair, then treat with enzyme-based deodorizers that break down uric acid at the molecular level. This permanently eliminates the odor rather than masking it — results are dramatically better than store-bought products.
No — we clean furniture in place. Just make sure the pieces are accessible and remove throw pillows, decorative items, and anything on or under the furniture beforehand. We handle everything else.
For most households, every 12–18 months is sufficient. Homes with pets, children, or allergy sufferers benefit from cleaning every 6–12 months. Regular cleaning extends the life of your furniture and keeps allergens from building up in the fabric.
