What does carpet and upholstery cleaning involve?
Carpet and upholstery cleaning is all about giving your soft furnishings a new lease of life. That means removing deep-down dirt, stains, dust mites and allergens – not just what you can see on the surface. The result is fresher-looking fabrics, longer-lasting carpets, and a cleaner, healthier home.
Depending on what needs cleaning and the company you choose, methods might include steam cleaning, hot water extraction or low-moisture treatments.
Will the same company clean both my carpet and upholstery?
Yes – many cleaning businesses offer both services. It’s more efficient for you and often more cost-effective too. Just make sure to check their services list or ask directly when getting a quote.
On Checkatrade, if you search for “carpet and upholstery cleaning” using our search tool, you can find companies and tradespeople who say they offer both, so you can save time from the start.
How long does carpet and upholstery cleaning take?
It depends on the size of the job. A single room carpet or a sofa might take around 30–60 minutes to clean, while a whole house could take a few hours.
Drying time varies too – anything from 2 to 24 hours, depending on the fabric and method used.
Many cleaners will bring dryers or recommend how to speed things up.
How often should you clean your carpets?
We’d suggest giving your carpets a professional clean every 12 to 18 months.
If you’ve got kids, pets or allergy sufferers at home, it might be worth doing it more often. Regular cleaning not only improves how your carpets look and smell, but it also helps them last longer.
How often should you clean your upholstery?
Like carpets, your upholstery benefits from a deep clean every 1 to 2 years.
Sofas, armchairs and dining chairs all gather dust, sweat, crumbs and more over time – especially if they’re used every day. A professional clean can lift stains, banish odours and refresh the whole feel of your living space.
How much does carpet and upholstery cleaning cost?
According to our figures, the average cost for carpet cleaning is £50 for a small to medium room (4m x 4m), while the average cost to clean a sofa is £60 for a two-seater.
The exact price you pay will depend on a number of factors, such as the exact size of the room, how many items of upholstered furniture need cleaning, the kind of fabric and carpet, and whether the cleaning service offers a discounted or bundled price for multiple services
