High quality upholstery cleaning service in Melbourne, Australia

Searching for a Top quality leather lounge cleaning company in Melbourne? Meet Black Gold carpet cleaning and here are also some cleaning advices. 1st let’s start with few tricks on how to increase your rugs life time. Soil retardants: Most carpets are now factory-treated with a coating that helps the carpet fibers shed water and spills. The key is cleaning up the spills quickly. Once a carpet is five years old or so, you may need to have it retreated, at least in the high traffic areas. The easiest way to check whether carpet retreatment is necessary is to place a few drops of water on the carpet in the questionable areas and see whether the drops bead up or are absorbed quickly into the fibers. If they are absorbed, it’s time to retreat the carpet. The best retreatment chemicals (and usually the only ones recommended by the manufacturers) are fluorochemical based. Scotchgard or any treatment containing Dupont’s Teflon are made from this material. The treatment should take place after cleaning and, for best results, should be gently brushed into the carpet while it is still damp.

Carpet is often found in “high-traffic” areas, such as living rooms, bedrooms, and finished basements simply because it is the most invisibly durable type of floor covering. Plus, if you have kids, carpet is always the wiser choice since it creates a slip-free surface and an artificial padding for rambunctious children. Not only does it cushion your feet, it can also soften the acoustics of the room, making for less echoes and noise. But even though it is durable, it still needs to be well-preserved in order for it to last. Understanding and completing basic carpet maintenance is the only way to ensure clean, safe, and beautiful floors for many years to come.

On arrival, our carpet technician will walk through your property with you before commencing. He will determine what type of carpet you have, the condition of the carpet and point out any potential issues before any steam cleaning begins.

As we are fully qualified, we know how best to care for your furniture. Of course, it is important to check the manufacturer’s care label before undertaking any method of cleaning.

Regular cleaning will not only make your chairs and sofas look better, but it also prolongs their life and keeps them smelling fresh and clean. The price of fabric upholstery cleaning, depends how many seats are cleaned not how many pieces of furniture. We price, couches, sofas and lounge suites depending on the number of seats: one seater, two seater, three seater and so on. For a chaise lounge attached to a sofa, we usually count the chaise as 1.5 – 2 seats. Removal of stains such as ink, blood, rust, pet stains, coffee, etc. is an additional cost. Most times, we will need to see the stains to quote on them accurately and to determine if they can be removed. Please see our upholstery cleaning services price guide for more information on pricing. See extra info at Black Gold cleaning.

Dab stains with a cleaning solution and a clean cloth, paper towels, or a sponge. “The key is blotting. Blotting puts a small amount of pressure on the stain to soak it up,” Tarbox says. “Rubbing causes the particles to get ground into the carpet fibers, and this can lead to the premature breakdown of those fibers.” Always blot from the outside of the stain inward, as blotting outward can spread the stain.
