Cleaning Methods: Cleaning Furniture

Cleaning Furniture

What good is having a clean home if your furniture is disgustingly dirty? Here is how to get your furniture looking like it fits perfectly in your spotless home.

  • Remove all of the cushions from the couch and use a hand-held dusting broom to loosen as much dirt up as possible. Vacuum all of the debris up with your vacuum’s brush attachment. Vacuum every surface nook and cranny, even the bottom of the couch or chair.
  • Vacuum both sides of the cushions that were removed and once finished, return them to their place on the furniture. Mix together a ¼ cup of liquid laundry detergent and a cup of warm water. If you only have powder laundry detergent, then you can use liquid dish detergent. Use an electric mixer to thoroughly mix the solution until you have thick, whipped cream-like peaks.
  • Find an inconspicuous spot on the furniture to test for the solution for colorfastness before proceeding.
  • Use a cloth to apply the suds directly to the fabric on the furniture. Rub it in and you should start seeing dirt lifting up in the suds. Use a plastic scraper to scrape the dirty suds away.
  • Rinse the area with a clean damp cloth and move on to the next area of the furniture.
  • Allow the furniture to sit overnight to fully dry.
  • Materials Needed:

    • Liquid laundry detergent
    • Dish detergent
    • Bucket
    • Clean cloths
    • Plastic scraper
    • Electric mixer

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose a janitorial company?

If cost is your most important factor, make this known when calling potential service providers. There are many inexpensive service providers available, however, with lower costs you may be sacrificing quality, consistency and reliability. If quality, consistency and reliability are important to you, then you should look for a company with high standards in their janitorial services while having a management team, processes, and infrastructure to provide you with your desired standard of service.

Advanced Building Maintenance may not be the most inexpensive service provider, however, you will not find the quality of service we offer for less. Our company provides all of these qualities at a competitive price.


How much will the service cost me?


The cost depends on the level of service you request and the type of services needed to meet your requests. The largest driver of cost in cleaning service industry is the cost of labor (including payroll taxes and insurances). Cost of service is based on how many labor hours it requires to effectively and thoroughly clean your space.
