Furniture Care for Small Spaces
In a city where the living room sofa doubles as a guest bed, a dining chair, and a home office seat, upholstery in NYC apartments earns its wear fast. We clean it without soaking it.
What's Included
How It Works
We identify the fabric type first, since the wrong method can shrink or discolor certain materials.
Loose debris is removed and stains are pre-treated before deep cleaning.
Upholstery is cleaned with just enough moisture to lift soil without oversaturating cushions.
Stubborn spots get individual attention with fabric-appropriate treatments.
Cushions are positioned to dry fast, usually within a few hours.
The NYC Difference
A sofa in a 600 square foot NYC apartment gets used the way three pieces of furniture would in a house — seating for guests, a spot to eat dinner, sometimes an overnight bed. Without central air, summer humidity in older buildings also means spills and body oils sit in the fabric longer between cleanings.
We run into this constantly with renters trying to get a security deposit back: a sofa that came with the apartment needs to look presentable at move-out, and a fabric couch that's absorbed a few years of daily use needs more than a lint roller and febreze.
What affects your price: Price depends on the number of pieces, fabric type, whether cushion covers are removable, and how much stain treatment is needed.

Upholstery soils gradually, so a lot of NYC apartment dwellers don't notice how much a sofa has changed until it's cleaned and the difference is obvious.
