Professional Upholstery Cleaning for Fresh, Clean Furniture
Your furniture gets used every day, collecting dirt, body oils, dust, allergens, and odors deep within the fabric. Professional upholstery cleaning helps remove that buildup while refreshing the look and feel of your furniture.
For over 40 years, Scalzo Maintenance has provided professional cleaning services for homes and businesses throughout Central Jersey. We clean sofas, sectionals, chairs, mattresses, and other upholstered furniture using proven cleaning methods designed to be effective on dirt while gentle on fabrics.
Whether you’re dealing with everyday wear, stubborn stains, pet odors, or furniture that simply needs a refresh, our experienced team can help bring your upholstery back to life.
Upholstery Cleaning Process
Our technicians evaluate each piece of furniture before cleaning to determine the appropriate method for the fabric and its condition.
- Fabric Inspection – We inspect the upholstery, identify the fabric when possible, and check for colorfastness, stains, wear, and areas that may require special attention.
- Pre-Treatment – An appropriate cleaning solution is applied to help loosen embedded dirt, body oils, and other buildup within the fabric.
- Gentle Agitation – When appropriate, we carefully agitate the upholstery with a soft brush to help release soil while protecting the fabric.
- Steam Cleaning & Extraction – Professional equipment extracts loosened dirt and cleaning solution from the upholstery, leaving the fabric thoroughly cleaned and refreshed.
Before we finish, we inspect the cleaned furniture and review the results with you.

Upholstery Add On Services
Help Protect Your Upholstery
After professional cleaning, upholstery protector can be applied to help guard fabric against everyday spills, stains, and soil. The treatment creates a protective barrier that gives you more time to address spills before they penetrate deeper into the fabric.
It’s a useful add-on for frequently used sofas, chairs, sectionals, and other upholstered furniture—especially in homes with children or pets.
Freshen Your Upholstered Furniture
Upholstered furniture can trap odors from pets, spills, food, and everyday use. Our deodorizing treatment is an optional addition to professional upholstery cleaning that helps address unwanted odors within the fabric.
It’s a great option for sofas, sectionals, chairs, mattresses, and other frequently used upholstered furniture that needs some extra attention.
Get Back to Your Furniture Faster
Our speed-drying service helps reduce the amount of time your upholstery remains damp after professional cleaning. We use specialized air-moving equipment to increase airflow around the furniture and help accelerate the drying process.
This is a useful add-on for frequently used furniture, busy households, and commercial spaces where minimizing downtime is important.
