Ottoman Cleaning San Diego

Yes — we clean all ottoman types: square, round, tufted, buttoned, or storage models. If it has fabric or leather on it, we can clean it. Storage ottomans require extra care to avoid moisture buildup inside the compartment — we ventilate them thoroughly during drying.

Absolutely. Odors like pet dander, sweat, or dampness often settle deep in the foam. We treat the ottoman with enzyme deodorizers and use hot water extraction to remove the source, not just mask it. If needed, we apply additional antimicrobial agents inside the cushion layer.

We use low-moisture, pH-balanced suede cleaners and soft brushes to gently lift soil without flattening the nap. For microfiber suede, we may use isopropyl-based cleaners followed by texture restoration using a suede brush or sponge. Water-based cleaning is generally avoided to prevent watermarking.

Yes. White fabric can yellow from body oils, UV light, or poor past cleaning attempts. We apply oxidizing agents safe for upholstery to restore brightness. For leather, we use special cleaners that lift oils without removing color. Some fading is permanent, but in most cases, we can revive its appearance.

If the frame and cushion are solid — yes. Cleaning can remove years of embedded dirt, revive faded fabric, and neutralize odors. We’ve restored 10-year-old ottomans that looked beyond hope. If the fabric is torn or threadbare, we’ll let you know whether cleaning or reupholstery makes more sense.

We can remove most stains — but older stains may require multiple treatments. Ink and grease respond to solvent-based spot removers, while wine or coffee need tannin-lifting agents. Results depend on fabric type and age of the stain, but we always pre-test before treatment.

On average, 2 to 4 hours. For deep-padded or velvet ottomans, it may take longer. We speed up drying with air movers, and always advise customers to keep the item in a ventilated space post-cleaning. Unlike DIY methods, our extraction system removes 90–95% of the moisture immediately.

Yes. We use pH-neutral leather cleaners and follow with a conditioner to restore softness and flexibility. For aniline leather or vintage pieces, we test for color stability first. We never use steam or water on leather — only controlled hand-cleaning and finishing.

Yes. Built-in or attached ottomans are cleaned just like standalone pieces, but we take extra care around seams and hardware. Reclining mechanisms are covered during the process to prevent moisture intrusion, and all surrounding cushions are treated for consistency.

Nail polish is tough, but sometimes removable. We use solvent-based removers that won’t damage the upholstery (unlike acetone). Time is critical — the sooner we treat it, the better the results. Don’t try scraping it yourself — that can spread or grind it deeper into the fibers.

Yes, but with specialized tools and extreme care. Velvet is sensitive to moisture and heat. We use dry foam or low-moisture extraction along with nap restoration tools to preserve the texture. After cleaning, we groom the pile so the fabric looks rich and even.

Vacuum it weekly with a soft brush attachment. Rotate its position to prevent uneven wear. If there’s a spill, blot (don’t rub) with a clean cloth. Use a fabric protector if the ottoman gets daily use. And most importantly — schedule deep cleaning once a year to prevent buildup you can’t see.
