Upholstery Cleaning – Deep Fabric Care for Sofas, Chairs, Mattresses and More Across the UAE

Your sofa looks “okay” in normal light — but when the sun hits the fabric from the balcony door you can see the sweat marks, the headrest grease, tea stains, makeup on the armrest, maybe even a light smell. Your dining chairs are starting to show dark shading on the seats. The mattress is… let’s be honest, not 100% fresh. This is where Upholstery Cleaning becomes more than “just cleaning.” It’s hygiene, comfort, and reputation.

Hourly Cleaning provides professional Upholstery Cleaning for sofas, armchairs, loveseats, lounges, dining chairs, headboards, mattresses, cushions, office seating and reception furniture across the UAE. We combine fabric-safe pre-treatment, stain breakdown, deep extraction, and deodorizing to restore softness, remove buildup, and cut odors caused by sweat, food, pets, humidity and day-to-day use. Our service is designed for real life: families, guests, kids, pets, Airbnb-style rentals, clinics, salons, waiting areas and VIP majlis seating.

Furniture fabric is like a sponge. It absorbs body oils, humidity, cooking vapors, perfume, hair products, skin cells, dust, pet dander, and little spills from tea or juice. Over time that builds odor, dulls the color, and creates dark patches and rings. The problem is: normal vacuuming doesn’t pull that gunk out. Spraying fragrance spray just hides it. Real Upholstery Cleaning means we break down the soil and then physically extract it out of the fibers and padding. That’s how your sofa stops smelling “used” and starts feeling comfortable again.

What is included in our Upholstery Cleaning service

Our Upholstery Cleaning process (how we actually clean your fabric)

1. Inspection & fabric check

We check the fabric type, color stability, and condition of the upholstery before we start. A delicate velvet headboard does not get treated the same as a rental apartment L-shaped sofa. Leather or part-leather sections are handled differently than cotton or microfiber. This step protects your furniture and keeps you safe from color damage or water rings.

2. Pre-treatment & stain breakdown

We apply professional pre-spray on targeted spots: sweat marks, food drops, makeup, pen marks, pet stains, etc. The goal is to loosen the dirt and oil that normal wiping never removes. This is a key point in our Upholstery Cleaning system, because without this stage, you’re just rinsing the surface, not actually lifting the stain.

3. Agitation (gentle fabric work)

For many fabrics we lightly agitate with the right brush or pad to work the solution into the fibers. This pulls out hidden buildup. We’re not “destroying” the fabric — we’re waking up the dirt so we can pull it out.

4. Deep extraction / hot water extraction

This is what people think of when they hear “steam cleaning.” We extract dissolved dirt, sweat residue, and odor-causing buildup out of the upholstery. That’s where the magic happens. That’s when you see the color brighten and the surface feel fresh instead of sticky or dull.

5. Deodorizing & finishing

After extraction, we neutralize odors and leave the fabric with a fresh, clean profile instead of heavy perfume. This matters for people with sensitivities, kids, pets, or allergies. The point of real Upholstery Cleaning is to breathe better, sleep better, and sit without thinking “that smells like old sweat.”

Who books Upholstery Cleaning the most (and why)

Family homes with kids & pets

Kids spill juice, chocolate, chips, milk. Pets leave hair, dander, paw prints, and “wet dog” smell. Over time, that sits deep in the fabric. Our Upholstery Cleaning extracts that buildup so your sofa doesn’t smell like last week’s snacks or yesterday’s walk.

Majlis seating & VIP reception areas

Hosting is reputation. If your majlis sofas have sweat marks on the headrest or tea stains on the arm, guests notice — even if they’re too polite to say it. Fresh, bright seating sends the right message the second they sit down.

Short-term rentals & furnished apartments

One bad review that says “the sofa smelled” will drop your booking rate immediately. Upholstery Cleaning keeps Airbnb-style and serviced units photo-ready and guest-approved. Clean sofa, clean dining chairs, fresher mattress = stronger rating.

Clinics, salons, cafés, waiting rooms

Your waiting chairs are part of your brand. Stained armrests or a smell of “old fabric” tells customers that hygiene is not under control. When you book Upholstery Cleaning for reception furniture, you’re protecting your client experience and your reviews.

Is Upholstery Cleaning safe for kids and pets?

Yes — when it’s done right. We use professional-grade solutions designed for fabric, not harsh random chemicals meant for floors or bathrooms. After deep extraction, residue is minimized and we’ll tell you simple after-care steps:

• How long to let the sofa/chair dry before heavy use.
• When kids and pets can sit again normally.
• Whether you should open windows or AC for faster drying.
• What not to place on the fabric until it’s fully dry (colored blankets, wet towels, etc.).

We know you care about safety, especially for small children, babies playing on the sofa, and pets who sleep right on the cushions. Proper Upholstery Cleaning is about hygiene and comfort — not just “it looks better in photos.”

How much does Upholstery Cleaning cost?

We believe in simple, honest pricing. No “surprise upgrade,” no “special product fee.” You’re paying for experience, equipment, and hygiene — not just water and a vacuum. Approximate guide:

For salons, clinics, cafés, showrooms and front-of-house waiting areas: this service directly protects how clients judge you in the first 5 seconds. Clean seating = “I trust this place.” Stained seating = “I’m not sure.”
