Limitations & Specialist Requests
We believe in clear expectations:
- Dye transfer and historic stains: Some permanent staining, sun fade, or dye bleed cannot be fully reversed.
- Delicate or “S”/“P” code fabrics: May require solvent or low‑moisture methods; drying times and outcomes vary.
- Leather upholstery: We offer light clean and condition only; heavy restoration or recolouring is via specialist partners on request.
- Structural damage: Torn seams, sagging foam, broken springs, or severe pet damage may need repair before cleaning.
- Smoke or heavy fire damage: Requires a bespoke assessment and may involve external restoration partners.
- Loose covers: We do not machine‑wash covers unless manufacturer guidelines specifically allow it and colourfastness is confirmed.
If you have a specialist item, antique piece, or unusual fabric blend, we’ll advise on feasibility and tailor a safe method.

FAQs
How long does upholstery take to dry?
Drying times for upholstery cleaning vary by fabric, pile, room temperature, and ventilation. As a guide, low‑moisture methods can feel dry within a few hours; hot water extraction may take longer. We’ll advise the best way to speed this up, such as airflow and gentle heat.
Can you remove pet odours and hair?
Yes. We perform thorough vacuuming and use targeted odour treatments for pet hair and odour removal. Urine‑related issues may need enzyme solutions and extra dwell time. While many odours improve significantly, severe contamination may require repeat treatment or foam replacement.
Is my fabric safe to clean?
We assess each item, check labels, and perform spot tests. Safe cleaning for delicate fabrics is a priority; we adapt to solvent or low‑moisture methods when water‑based cleaning is unsuitable.
Do I need to prepare anything before you arrive?
Please clear small items, throws, and cushions where possible, and ensure access and parking in North London. If covers are removable, keep them fitted unless we advise otherwise after inspection.
Can you clean velvet, linen, or viscose?
We can often clean these with controlled processes, but outcomes and drying times differ. Viscose/velvet may require low‑moisture or solvent‑based techniques. We’ll confirm the safest approach on site.
What stains can you treat?
We handle common spills such as tea, coffee, wine, food, makeup, and general soil. Some stains, such as dye transfer, sun fade, or set‑in ink, can be permanent. We’ll set realistic expectations after testing.
Do you move furniture?
We can move light items where safe, but heavy furniture or crowded rooms may require you to create space beforehand. We’ll discuss this during booking.
Do you offer commercial upholstery cleaning?
Yes. We service offices, clinics, restaurants, schools, retail and hospitality venues across North London and the wider N area, with flexible scheduling to minimise disruption.
