Cleaning a leather sofa is typically easier than cleaning fabric sofas, although they do need annual conditioning to keep them in top condition.

Getting an upholstery cleaner depends on whether you feel you’ll use it often. As a specific piece of cleaning equipment, it can be a costly investment if it's left sitting only for special occasions. But if you clean your upholstered furniture regularly, investing in this specialty tool could save you time and money in the long run.

It’s possible to steam clean some couches, but not all materials deal well with exposure to heat and moisture. If your couch material is cotton or polyester, steam cleaning might work well. With more delicate materials and those that can retain water and attract mold, you should steer clear of steam cleaning. Some materials like silk and rayon should only be dry cleaned to avoid damage. When in doubt, we recommend calling in a professional upholstery cleaning service to clean your furniture without causing damage.

Anything that might have been exposed to fumigation chemicals should be washed before use. Wipe down and sanitize surfaces like countertops and tables, and wash all utensils (or take care to store them in an airtight box beforehand), as well as anything else that could find its way into someone’s mouth, like kid or pet toys.
