At Cleaners Kennington, we provide thorough, safe and highly effective upholstery cleaning for homes and businesses across Kennington and the nearby areas. With years of hands-on experience and specialist training, we restore sofas, armchairs and soft furnishings to their best possible condition while protecting the fabrics and the people who use them.
Our service is designed to give your soft furnishings a deep, hygienic clean without risking shrinkage, colour bleed or damage. We carefully select cleaning methods and products to suit each fabric type and level of soiling.
For safety and fabric protection, some items are not included in a standard visit:
If you are unsure, we can usually advise during your enquiry or at the survey stage.
We work throughout Kennington every day, so we understand the typical property layouts, parking challenges and building access issues in the area. Whether you’re in a Victorian terrace near the park, a modern apartment block or a commercial premises on a busy road, we plan our work around your building and your schedule.
Because we’re local, we can offer flexible appointments, including short-notice visits where our diary allows. We also know how important it is to keep noise, disruption and hoses to a minimum in shared stairwells and blocks, and we adapt our methods accordingly.
Our professional upholstery cleaning service is suitable for:
We follow a clear, structured process to ensure consistent results and to protect your furniture at every stage.
You contact us by phone, email or our online form. We will ask a few simple questions: type and number of items, fabric if known, age, and the type of marks or stains present. Where possible, we provide an initial price estimate based on your description and any photos you can share. This estimate is transparent, with no hidden charges for standard work.
For larger jobs or delicate fabrics, we recommend a short survey. This can be a virtual inspection using photos and video, or an onsite visit for more complex work. During the survey we:
We then confirm your final quotation and the most suitable cleaning method.
On the day, our trained upholstery technicians protect your home or workplace before any cleaning starts. We typically:
Depending on the fabric, we then proceed with hot water extraction, low-moisture cleaning or specialist hand cleaning, followed by grooming and accelerated drying where possible.
We believe in clear, straightforward pricing. Our upholstery cleaning is usually priced per item or per seating place (for example, a three-seater sofa vs a two-seater). The price depends on fabric type, size, condition and access, not just the postcode.
Your quote will state exactly what is included: pre-treatment, main clean and basic stain work. Heavily soiled items, severe pet accidents or extensive stain removal may carry an additional charge, which we always discuss and agree in advance. There are no surprise extras added on the day.
While hire machines and shop-bought products may seem cheaper, they often leave too much moisture and detergent in the fabric, which can cause rapid re-soiling, bad odours and potential damage. Our professional machines are far more powerful, extracting soil and residues effectively while keeping drying times reasonable.
We also understand fibre types, backing materials and fixings, so we can choose solutions that are safe for your particular upholstery. Professional cleaning can remove deeply embedded dirt, allergens and some odours that DIY methods simply cannot reach, helping you get more usable years out of your furniture.
Your furnishings are valuable, so protection matters. Cleaners Kennington is fully covered with:
We work to professional standards for stain treatment, chemical handling and health and safety. All solutions are used at the correct dilution and are suitable for indoor use when used as directed. Where needed, we can provide risk assessments for commercial clients.
We take a careful, considered approach to every job. Protecting your fabrics, your health and the environment is central to how we work.
Where possible, we recommend realistic maintenance routines – such as regular vacuuming and prompt attention to spills – to keep your upholstery cleaner for longer and cut down on the need for intensive treatments.
Costs depend on the size, fabric and condition of the items. As a guide, we usually price per seating place or per item, with small armchairs at the lower end and large corner sofas at the higher end. Stain treatment and odour work are normally included, but severe soiling, heavy pet accidents or specialist fabrics may carry an additional charge. Once we know what you have, we provide a clear quotation before any work is booked, so you know exactly what you’ll pay.
Same-day or urgent appointments are sometimes available, particularly in Kennington where our teams are often nearby. It depends on the schedule and the size of the job, but we always do our best to help with spill emergencies or last-minute preparations for guests and inspections. The quickest way to check is to call us and describe the issue. Even if we cannot attend immediately, we can usually advise on safe steps to take until we arrive.
Yes. We carry public liability cover for work in homes and commercial premises, and goods in transit insurance for any items we take offsite. This protection is there for your peace of mind as well as ours. Our technicians are also trained in fabric testing and safe working methods to reduce the risk of problems in the first place. We always explain any visible risks we identify before starting and will not proceed with methods we believe are unsafe for the fabric.
A standard visit includes initial assessment, dry vacuuming, pre-treatment of general soiling, targeted stain treatment where appropriate, the main clean using a suitable method, and final rinsing or grooming. We also place basic protective covers where needed and advise you on drying times and aftercare. Deodorising is usually included, though heavy odour work may be quoted separately. We do not include repairs, reupholstery or fabric protection treatments as standard, but these can sometimes be arranged on request.
For the best choice of dates and times, especially if you need evenings or Saturdays, we recommend booking one to two weeks ahead. However, we keep some flexibility in our diary to accommodate smaller jobs and short-notice requests in Kennington. If you have a fixed deadline – for example, a tenancy checkout or event – let us know when you enquire so we can plan accordingly. During busier periods we may be able to add you to a cancellation list for earlier availability.
Drying times depend on the fabric, filling, room temperature and ventilation. As a general guide, many items are touch-dry within a few hours, while deeper or more absorbent cushions can take longer. We use equipment and techniques that remove as much moisture as possible without harming the fabric, and we will always advise you on safe use times before we leave. Opening windows, using fans and keeping heating at a moderate level can all help speed up the drying process.
