Couch, Sofa & Lounge Cleaning

Couch, sofa or lounge — it is the most-used and least-cleaned piece of furniture in the house. We clean it properly: the frame, the back, and under every cushion.

Why choose Ace Chem-Dry

The Benefits of Chem-Dry Couch, Sofa & Lounge Cleaning

Here is what sets our couch and sofa cleaning apart across the Southern Highlands.

Every Fabric Type

Ace Chemdry are expertly trained to effectively clean all types of fabrics, bringing them back to life with a minimum of fuss to the customer.

Fabric Protection Available

We can treat your valuable upholstery with fabric protection, giving your lounge a protective barrier between accidental spills and general soilage.

We Clean the Whole Lounge

Yes — we clean the back of the lounge and under the cushions. Not just the parts you can see from the doorway.

Hand and Head Areas Targeted

The hand and head areas are pre-treated first, because these tend to be the areas of general concern on any lounge or chair.

Dry in Hours, Not Days

The low-moisture Chem-Dry process means your lounge is usable again far sooner than after a conventional wet clean.

Satisfaction Guarantee

If you are not happy with the results, we will return and re-clean free of charge.

Couch and sofa cleaning

The Most Used Seat in the House, and the Least Cleaned

Think about how much time your family spends on the couch. Every sitting leaves body oils, skin cells and perspiration in the fabric and the foam underneath — and unlike carpet, a couch never gets a proper vacuum between cleans. Add the kids, the dog, one or two coffee spills and a few humid Highlands summers, and the dust that comes out of a lounge when we clean it surprises people every time.

Almost every couch we clean is booked for one of two reasons: it has started to smell, or it has started to look tired, flat and slightly grey. Both have the same cause — soil that has worked its way past the surface of the fabric and into the pile.

We take it out instead of cleaning over the top of it.

Fabric types

We Clean Every Type of Lounge Fabric

Our technicians identify a fabric before a single drop of anything touches it — and pre-test in a spot you will never notice.

Synthetic Weaves

Polyester, acrylic and blended weaves make up most modern lounges. They respond beautifully to Hot Carbonating Extraction and often come up looking close to new.

Wool and Wool Blends

Wool is far more sensitive to moisture and pH than synthetics. A low-moisture process and pH-balanced solutions clean the fibre instead of soaking or stripping it.

Cotton, Linen and Textured Weaves

Chenille, loose weaves and heavy textures hold soil deep in the pile. These get a gentler pre-treatment and a slower pass over every panel.

Pale and Delicate Colours

Cream, ivory and pale grey lounges show every mark — and every mistake. These are tested in an inconspicuous spot, on your couch, before we begin.

What happens on the day

How We Clean a Couch or Sofa

The same six steps, whether it is a two-seater in Mittagong or a full lounge suite in Burradoo.

01

Inspection and Fabric Test

We check the care label, identify the fabric and pre-test our solution somewhere you will never see, so there are no surprises on a pale lounge.

02

Dry Soil Removal

Before anything gets wet, the couch is vacuumed properly — under the cushions and down the back — to lift out the dry soil that causes most of the dullness.

03

Pre-Treatment

A pre-treatment is sprayed on and worked into the hand and head areas first. Those are the two spots people always point to when we arrive.

04

Hot Carbonating Extraction

The whole piece is cleaned using our patented carbonated process. The bubbles lift soil to the surface where it is extracted away — no soaking, no soapy film left behind.

05

Fabric Protection

Optional, and worth it on a lounge the family actually sits on. A protective barrier goes over the fibres so the next spill sits on top rather than sinking in.

06

Final Check and Drying

We walk the result through with you before we pack up and re-treat anything that needs another pass. Low moisture means the couch is back in use the same day.
