Will using carpet cleaner on a couch damage it?

• <div><p>It might be possible to use a carpet cleaner on your couch, but it’s not recommended. Some carpet cleaners contain chemicals that are too harsh or abrasive for the soft fabric on your couch. Plus, couches have upholstery codes that dictate what you can and can’t use safely for cleaning purposes, and carpet cleaner generally isn’t included in those codes. If you do decide to use a carpet cleaner, test it on a section of fabric that isn’t visible in case you damage it.</p></div>

A pro will have commercial cleaning solutions that do a better job as well as the experience necessary to get the stain out without doing irreparable damage to your carpet.</p></div>

Q: What are common issues requiring professional cleaning?

• <div><p>Smoke stains, grease buildup, mold, and water spots are common reasons for hiring professional cleaning services.</p></div>

Q: How do you get dog smell out of a microfiber couch?

• <div><p>Baking soda is a great, natural way to get pet odors out of a microfiber couch. If pet urine is the problem, you can also use a urine stain/odor removal spray (read the instructions before use) to help get rid of strong scents.</p></div>

Q: Will vinegar clean upholstery?

• <div><p>Vinegar is acidic and makes a great cleaning agent for many items throughout the house, including some upholstery. It should not be used for any upholstery with the code S or X. It can be used for W labels. To use a vinegar solution, mix equal parts water and vinegar and blot the stain using a gentle circular motion with a clean microfibre cloth and then allow to dry completely. As with any DIY solution, test a small and inconspicuous section first.</p></div>

The two guys were very fast, efficient and cleaned up all of the mess. There was damage to one window screen, one panel of the patio door and missing part for the door which they are replacing and taking care of it for us. We were very pleased.
