Sofa Cleaning in Cape Town
A good sofa is an investment. Whether it's a leather three-piece suite, a velvet corner sofa, or a fabric sectional, the cleaning method matters — wrong products on leather dry it out and cause cracking; velvet needs a careful low-moisture approach. We come to you across Cape Town and use the right method for your sofa type.
Stain Treatment
Food, wine, pet accidents, ink — we pre-treat stains before the main clean. We'll tell you upfront what's likely to come out and what isn't.
Deep Clean
Hot water extraction pulls out embedded dirt and allergens. Not just a surface clean — we get into the fabric properly.
Deodorise & Dry
We deodorise after cleaning. Low-moisture method means your sofa is dry within a few hours — not a whole day.
Sofa Types We Clean
Each material needs a different approach. We match the method to the sofa — not the other way around.
Leather Sofas
Leather gets cleaned and conditioned in one visit. We use leather-specific products that lift grime and protect the surface — not generic cleaners that dry the leather out and cause cracking over time.
Velvet Sofas
Velvet needs a careful low-moisture approach to avoid watermarks and pile damage. We test a small area first, then treat the full sofa with the right technique for the pile direction.
Fabric & Microfibre
Hot water extraction pulls embedded dirt, dust, and allergens out of the fibres. Works for most standard fabric sofas and microfibre.
Sectional & L-Shaped Sofas
We clean all sections including the sides and underneath the cushions where dust and crumbs collect. Bigger jobs get a discount on multi-piece sets.
Leather Sofa Cleaning — What You Need to Know
Leather is one of the most searched-for sofa types we clean, and also the one most commonly damaged by incorrect cleaning. Using household cleaners, baby wipes, or even water on leather can strip the protective coating and cause it to dry out and crack.
- We use pH-balanced leather cleaners designed for furniture
- A light conditioner is applied after cleaning to keep the leather supple
- We check whether the leather is pigmented, aniline, or semi-aniline before starting
- Most leather sofas dry within 1–2 hours
- We recommend a clean every 12–18 months for leather

What Customers Say
Cape Town homeowners who've used our sofa cleaning service
“Our sofa looked terrible — stains from the kids and a smell I could not get rid of. They came out and it honestly looks like a different sofa. Happy with the result.”

Common Questions About Sofa Cleaning
How much does sofa cleaning cost in Cape Town?
We start from R350 for a standard two-seater. Three-seaters, L-shapes and sectionals are priced on size. Leather sofas are priced separately — call us for an exact quote.
How do you clean a leather sofa?
We use pH-balanced leather cleaners and apply a light conditioner after cleaning. This lifts grime without drying the leather out or causing the surface to crack. We also check the leather type first — pigmented, aniline, or semi-aniline — as each needs a slightly different approach.
Can you clean velvet sofas?
Yes, but velvet needs a careful low-moisture method to avoid watermarks and pile damage. We test a small hidden area first before treating the full sofa.
How long does a sofa take to dry?
Fabric sofas dry in about 3–5 hours. Leather dries faster — usually 1–2 hours. Open a window and most people use the sofa the same evening.
Can all stains be removed?
Most stains respond well, but not every stain can be fully removed. We'll always be upfront about what's likely before we start.
Do you come to my home?
Yes — we come to you across Cape Town. No need to move or transport the sofa. We bring all equipment.
