Upholstery Cleaning in Santa Barbara

Family-Owned Upholstery Cleaning Since 1978

In Santa Barbara and Montecito, Kelly Cleaning provides upholstery cleaning for sofas, sectionals, dining chairs and other furniture in homes and offices. We bring truck-mounted steam cleaning to the house to take out dirt, dust mites, pet odors and stains. Most fabrics are safe with it, free pre-spotting is included, and pieces needing deeper care can go to The Ultimate Rug Spa. Family-owned since 1978.

  1. Fabric Matched MethodSteam is safe on nearly every upholstery fabric, and the technician tailors it to the weave and to whatever stains are on it.
  2. Fans For DryingOnce extraction is done, fans are set up so the furniture dries faster and can be used again sooner.
  3. In-Home ServiceThe crew brings the equipment into your living room, so a heavy sectional never has to be moved out.
Weekly

Dust mites live in upholstered furniture, carpet and bedding, and the EPA recommends vacuuming carpets and furniture every week to help control them.

Couch and Sofa Cleaning

Furniture in a beach town picks up sand tracked in from the beach, pet hair and odors, food and spills, and the body oils that build up with everyday use. Most of it works its way into the fabric, where vacuuming only gets what is on top, and a sofa can look fine while holding a lot of it.

Our truck-mounted equipment comes to the house and the furniture is cleaned in place, in Santa Barbara and in Montecito. Two customers wrote about their results: a white couch with beach tar on it that came out better than it was before, and a 16-year-old sectional that lived with two dogs and came out looking new.

Our Process

Pre-Spotting, Hot Water Extraction and Drying

Each piece starts with a look at the fabric and a colorfastness check, then free pre-spotting on the tough stains. Next, a mix of hot water and cleaning solution is forced deep into the fabric, and a high-powered vacuum extracts it at once, along with the dust mites, pet odors and dirt it has loosened.

We set fans around the furniture so it dries sooner, though the time still varies with the fabric, the airflow and that day’s weather. Most fabrics are safe with this method, and our technicians are trained in how different upholstery materials and designs need to be cleaned.

  • Fabric Lookbefore any cleaning
  • Colorfastnesschecked on the fabric
  • Free Pre-Spottingfor the tough stains
  • Hot Water Extractionforced in, vacuumed out
  • Dust Mitesremoved from the fabric

Offices and Deeper Care

Office Furniture and The Ultimate Rug Spa

Santa Barbara offices have upholstery too, and we clean it the same way we clean a couch at home: the fabric is checked first, tough stains get free pre-spotting, and the hot water extraction is done on site. Office chairs and other upholstered office furniture are all part of the work.

Pieces that need deeper work can make the trip down to Ventura, where The Ultimate Rug Spa at 1445 Donlon St. gives upholstery deeper care in the building where we also wash area rugs. Regular cleaning keeps furniture looking right and helps it last, so a piece does not need to look dirty before it is worth booking.

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!

Do you clean upholstery in Montecito?

Yes. Montecito and Carpinteria get the same crews as our Santa Barbara service area, and we cover all of Ventura County too.

Is my furniture cleaned at home or taken to a shop?

Most furniture is cleaned in your Santa Barbara home with truck-mounted equipment. Pieces needing deeper care can go to The Ultimate Rug Spa in Ventura, the shop that also handles area rug cleaning for Santa Barbara.

Can you get beach tar out of a couch?

We have done it. One customer’s white couch got tar on it after a beach day, nothing she tried at home worked, and after our cleaning it looked better than before.

How long does upholstery take to dry?

That varies with the fabric, the air moving through the room and the weather, and the fans we set up help it along.

Is steam safe for the fabrics on furniture?

Most fabrics handle it well. We still inspect the material and run a color test before cleaning.

Do you clean office furniture?

Yes. We clean office chairs and other upholstered furniture for businesses as well as homes.
