If it's been a while since you've had your upholstered furniture cleaned, you might be surprised by how dirty it actually is. Even if there aren't visible stains, dust, body oils, and other contaminants can build up on the surface, leaving chairs and sofas looking dingy. Professional upholstery cleaning can solve this issue, and the following guide outlines a number of additional benefits this service provides. 

Why Should You Invest in Professional Upholstery Cleaning?

1. Extend the Life of Furniture

Taking good care of your furniture with regular upholstery cleaning keeps it looking great, but professionals also use tools and products that protect the piece against further staining and damage. The longer contaminants are allowed to remain on the upholstery, the more likely they are to break down the fabric fibers and contribute to discoloration and wear. When you hire professional cleaners to care for furniture, they will pass on tips and tricks that you can use to keep pieces looking beautiful in between sessions.

2. Improve Indoor Air Quality 

Upholstery traps dust, pet dander, and other allergens in its fibers. Even when you vacuum and clean your house regularly, the deeply embedded contaminants can still affect the home's air quality and cause allergy symptoms. Professional upholstery cleaning uses tools that reach deep into the fabric to remove more allergens and dirt and keep indoor air as fresh as possible.

3. Reduce Odors

Upholstery also absorbs odors, and over time, these can cause furniture to emit unpleasant smells. Pets are a common culprit behind this issue. However, anything in the home—from cooking and cigarette smoke to pleasant scents, like candles and perfume—can become trapped in the fibers. Many products that claim to remove odors only cover them with fragrance, but professional upholstery cleaning actually removes the source of the problem. This leaves the furniture and your home smelling fresh.
