Upholstery Cleaning in Montecito

Upholstery Cleaning for Home and Business Owners

Our upholstery cleaning covers sofas, sectionals, chairs and ottomans in Montecito homes and businesses, cleaned right where they sit. Every piece gets a colorfastness test on site, free pre-spotting goes on the tough stains, and truck-mounted hot water extraction takes out the dirt, dust mites and odors. Pieces that need more can go to The Ultimate Rug Spa in Ventura. Family-owned since 1978.

  1. Dust Mites and AllergensSteam cleaning takes out dust mites and allergens along with the dirt and pet odors held in the fabric.
  2. Matched to the FabricTechnicians learn current techniques and what each upholstery material and design needs before they clean it.
  3. Office Furniture TooUpholstered chairs and office furniture for businesses are cleaned with the same process we use on a sofa at home.

Stain-repellent fabric finishes make spills bead up long enough to wipe away, but they do not replace cleaning.

Living Rooms

Sun, Salt Air and the Fabric Closest to the Windows

Upholstery in Montecito wears in ways furniture inland does not. Salt air drifts in through window screens, and the sofa in a sunroom sits in direct light for much of the day. Over time the fabric stiffens, the colors on the sunny side shift, and the cushions hold onto odors from everyday living.

We clean velvet sofas, linen sectionals, dining chairs and ottomans right in the room, so nothing has to be carried out the door. Each fabric gets the method that suits it, chosen after we have looked at the piece rather than before.

Testing First

A Colorfastness Test Before the First Pass

A hidden spot on the piece gets tested first to make sure the dyes will hold, and the tools are chosen for the texture of the fabric. The upholstery is vacuumed, a pre-treatment loosens the soil, and free pre-spotting goes on the stains that need it. Then hot water and cleaning solution go in and come straight back out through a high-powered vacuum.

Drying depends on the fabric, the room and the weather that day, and fans go up afterward to help it along. Steam cleaning is safe for most fabrics, and the test at the start is how we know which pieces need a gentler hand.

  • Spot Testdyes checked on a hidden area
  • Pre-Vacuumloose soil out first
  • Pre-Treatmentsoil loosened in the fabric
  • Free Pre-Spottingon every job
  • Hot Water Extractionsolution in, dirt out
  • Drying Fansset up when we finish

Business Seating

Lobby Chairs, Office Seating and The Ultimate Rug Spa

Coast Village Road, just inside Santa Barbara city limits, is lined with boutiques, eateries and accommodations, and Montecito’s hotels include Rosewood Miramar Beach, San Ysidro Ranch and the Montecito Inn. Lobby chairs, banquettes and office seating in places like these see far more use than a sofa at home, and a stain on a chair in the front room is seen by every guest who walks in.

We clean that kind of commercial seating as well as the sofas in Montecito houses. A piece that needs more than an on-site clean can go to The Ultimate Rug Spa at 1445 Donlon St. in Ventura, which takes upholstery in for deeper care.

The Kelly Cleaning team was outstanding! Our tenants with young children just vacated last week and it was left in rough condition! This wonderful team of 9 spent two days returning my property to near perfect condition.

Edgar and Randy did an amazing job! The carpet was in a rental and was a mess. We thought we would TRY cleaning it but didn't think it could come clean. They took their time and made it like new!

Ivan and Edgar were wonderful, professional, and did a great job. They were so careful moving the equipment and they also noticed a few issues and were able to fix it along with cleaning the vent. Will use Kelly Cleaning again in the future.

How much does upholstery cleaning cost in Montecito?

Price depends on the size of the job and the condition of what we are cleaning, so every upholstery cleaning job in Montecito is quoted on its own, free, by calling (805) 644-5308 or requesting one online, and first-time customers in Montecito take 10% off.

Do you clean upholstery in my Montecito home, or do I bring it in?

We bring the truck-mounted equipment to your Montecito home and clean the furniture where it sits. If a piece calls for a deeper clean than that, it can travel to The Ultimate Rug Spa in Ventura, the same shop that handles our Montecito rug cleaning.

Do you test furniture fabric before cleaning it?

Yes. We test a hidden spot for colorfastness on site and choose the tools for the fabric’s texture.

Can you clean velvet and linen pieces in a house?

Yes. Velvet and linen are both part of our work, and each gets the spot test and a method matched to the fabric.

Is pre-spotting extra on an upholstery job?

No. Free pre-spotting comes with every upholstery job.

How soon can we sit on a sofa after cleaning?

It depends on the fabric, the airflow and the weather. We set up fans to speed the drying.

Do you clean lobby and office seating for businesses?

Yes. We clean upholstered furniture in businesses, from lobby chairs to office seating, and our Montecito overview lists the other commercial work we do in town.
