Steam or Extraction: How We Clean a Fabric Sofa

People often ask whether a sofa needs steam or extraction. For many fabric sofas, the answer is both. Here is how we think about it when we do sofa cleaning in Qatar.

What steam does

Steam helps loosen dirt held in the fabric, and it reaches seams and folds that are hard to clean by hand. Our steam cleaning service uses it for many types of upholstery.

What extraction does

Extraction draws dirt and moisture back out of the fabric. Loosening dirt is only half the job, so it also has to be removed.

When steam is not suitable

Some materials do not react well to heat or moisture. That is why we check the fabric first, and choose another method if needed. Send us the care label if you have it.

Before we arrive

  • Clear cushions, toys and small items from the sofa.
  • Point out any marks, and tell us what caused them if you know.
  • Tell us about any earlier cleaning attempts.
