Upholstery Cleaning by Dr. Carpet in Walnut Creek, CA

Professional Upholstery Cleaning Services for a Healthier Home

Upholstery is not one material. A cotton sofa, a microfiber sectional and a velvet chair each need different chemistry and different amounts of moisture. We read the manufacturer’s cleaning code and test the fabric before we start, and that decides the method.

From there we follow the same 10 steps on every piece: UV black light inspection, pre-vacuuming, pre-treatment, gentle agitation, spot treatment, steam extraction, both sides of every cushion, pH neutralization, grooming and a final inspection with you.

What is included

  • Fabric and cleaning code check before anything is applied
  • Vacuuming of cushions, crevices and the frame
  • Pre-spray chosen for the fabric and the soil
  • Spot, body oil and pet urine treatment
  • Extraction with upholstery tools and controlled moisture
  • pH neutralization and grooming for a soft finish

Step by step

Our advanced 10-step upholstery cleaning process

The same ten steps on every sofa, sectional and chair, adjusted to the fabric.

  1. Step 1 of 10

    Fabric inspection and UV black light

    We check the fabric type, its condition and the manufacturer's cleaning code, then use a professional UV black light to find pet urine and hidden stains.

  2. Step 2 of 10

    Pre-vacuuming

    Loose dirt, dust, pet hair and debris come out before any liquid touches the fabric.

  3. Step 3 of 10

    Professional pre-treatment

    Upholstery solutions matched to the fabric break down embedded dirt, body oils and residue.

  4. Step 4 of 10

    Gentle fabric agitation

    Soft brushes loosen dirt and contaminants without damaging delicate fibers.

  5. Step 5 of 10

    Spot and stain treatment

    Stubborn stains, spills and discoloration get fabric-safe spotters, one by one.

  6. Step 6 of 10

    Deep steam extraction

    Hot water extraction with pressure and moisture controlled for the fabric pulls the soil and the cleaning solution out.

  7. Step 7 of 10

    360ยฐ cushion cleaning

    Removable cushions are cleaned on both sides, not just the face you see.

  8. Step 8 of 10

    pH neutralization

    A neutralizing rinse leaves no sticky residue, so the fabric stays soft and does not attract dirt again.

  9. Step 9 of 10

    Grooming and speed drying

    We groom the fibers back into place and set air movers so the piece dries in hours.

  10. Step 10 of 10

    Final inspection

    We walk through the result with you, piece by piece, before we pack up.

I still have questions See all 60 answers

How long does a sofa take to dry?

Usually a few hours, depending on the fabric and airflow. We use controlled moisture and air movers to speed it up.

Can you clean dining chairs and ottomans?

Yes. Chairs, ottomans, headboards and cushions all follow the same process.

What if my fabric says dry clean only?

Code S fabrics get a solvent-based or very low-moisture method. We check the code first.
