Once you’re done cleaning your upholstered chairs, here are a few ways you can keep them looking fresh for longer:

• Use removable chair covers that are machine washable

• Blot spills as soon as you see them 

• Consider treating the fabric with a stain protector

The cost to clean an area rug is typically between $2 and $6 per square foot, meaning an 8-by-10-foot rug will cost $160 to $480 to clean. However, the final price depends on several factors. The rug's material is a primary consideration, with costs per square foot varying: Synthetic ($1–$4), Cotton ($2–$8), Sisal ($4–$7), Silk ($4–$8), Sheepskin ($4–$8), and Wool ($5–$8). Specialty rugs, like oriental rugs, can cost more, averaging $5 to $9 per square foot. Other factors influencing the price include the rug's size and condition, the cleaning method (hand washing can increase the cost to $4 to $9 per square foot), whether the service is on-site or requires pick-up, and your geographic location. A large, heavily soiled rug could cost $650 or more to clean.

Professional rug cleaning will take between one day and a week on average. Some cleaners can complete the process in a few hours depending on the method, but most will keep the rug for several days to ensure proper cleaning and drying.

You should lightly clean your leather couch biweekly by dusting off any surface dust or debris with a clean rag. Every month do a deeper clean with a vacuum to remove crumbs or dust from between cushions. You should only condition your couch about once a year to avoid any solution buildup.
