SF and the East Bay. Same prices everywhere we work.
01 / Scope
What our upholstery cleaning service covers
If it’s upholstered furniture in your living room, it’s in scope. A visit covers:
Loveseat
Full surface, arms, back, seat and back cushions.
3-seat sofa
The same, across all three seats.
Sectional
Every section, including the corner piece and chaise.
Sofa + loveseat together
Both pieces in one visit, priced as a bundle.
We vacuum the piece first, work the cushions and crevices, then run steam extraction over the fabric. Removable cushions get both sides. We bring all products and equipment.
Not a sofa?
Armchair, ottoman or dining chairs? Still upholstery work. Tell us what you’ve got and we’ll price it before you book.
02 / Method
How we clean upholstery: steam and hot-water extraction
Hot-water extraction, which most people call steam cleaning. Hot water and solution go into the fabric under pressure, and the machine pulls the water, and the dirt in it, straight back out.
The order is always the same.
Some marks lift and some don’t. You’ll hear which we expect before we start, not after.
01
Vacuum first
So loose dirt and hair come off before any water touches the fabric.
02
Spot-treat
The areas you point out, before the pass begins.
03
Extraction pass
Section by section, so nothing gets soaked or skipped.
04
Groom and set to dry
We groom the pile and set cushions upright to dry.
03 / Prices
Upholstery cleaning prices
Every price below is a starting price. The price is settled before we start, not after.
A standalone upholstery visit has a $179 minimum. A sectional, the sofa-and-loveseat bundle, or any two pieces clear it on their own. A single sofa or loveseat pairs with a second piece or joins a house clean.
What moves the number: how many pieces you have and their size. The pricing page has the full breakdown, and the quote gives your exact figure in about two minutes.
Standalone visit minimum: $179. Same prices in all six cities we serve.
04 / Routes
Standalone booking vs adding it to a house clean
The price per piece is the same either way.
The furniture is the job
Standalone upholstery cleaning
For when the furniture is the whole job. Its own booking, a $179 minimum, and no plan or ongoing commitment.

In-clean add-ons
Add any piece to a house cleaning booking at the same listed prices.
Upholstery is always charged separately, even on the Signature tier. It isn’t one of that tier’s two free add-ons.
Wall-to-wall is carpet cleaning
Carpets and rugs are priced on their own terms, so they’re separate services: carpet cleaning and rug cleaning.
Roll it up and it's rug cleaning
Not sure which one your floor is? Ask in the quote and we’ll sort it.

06 / The day
What to expect on the day
Clear the sofa before we arrive: blankets, laptops, remotes and anything underneath. Cushions can stay. If a sectional sits tight against a wall, tell us at booking.
The furniture will be damp when we finish. Give it about 4–6 hours before sitting on it; standing cushions and an open window help it dry.
We supply everything else. Just let us in, point at the pieces, and mention any spots to look at first.
If something's not right
Insured and bonded, and every cleaner is background-checked and reference-checked. Not right? Tell us within 24 hours and we’ll re-clean the affected areas free.
07 / Booking
