How regularly should upholstery be cleaned?

If you have upholstery in the house, covering your chairs, sofas and other pieces of furniture, you will need to call on the services of carpet cleaners in Altrincham every now and again. Some of the best carpet cleaning companies also clean upholstery, but how often do you need to use these services?

How often you get your upholstery cleaned depends on a number of factors. For most people, an upholstery cleaning appointment should be booked around every 12 to 18 months, or when a change is noticeable in the colour or appearance of the upholstery.

However, if you have pets, children or are smokers, you should consider calling in a professional upholstery cleaner more frequently than this. Every 6 to 9 months should be adequate, but if you have children, pets and there is more than one smoker in the house, you might want to make it just three months between each clean.

Of course, our professional carpet cleaners Altrincham can also tackle spots and stains on upholstery and carpets. You don’t necessarily have to get the whole sofa or chair cleaned when you notice a mark or a stain, but you should take steps to get the blemish removed as soon as possible to prevent it from becoming a permanent fixture.
