☎ Get immediate helpSupermarket carpet cleaners and home steam machines cause more Melbourne couch damage than they fix. Here's what we see when customers call after a DIY attempt went wrong.
Home machines pump water into fabric but lack the suction to extract it properly. in City of Melbourne Council's cool, humid winters, that moisture sits in foam padding for days, creating mould colonies that release spores into your living room air. We've pulled green mould from couches that looked fine on the surface.
Wool, silk-blend, and velvet upholstery need pH-neutral solutions. The alkaline cleaners sold at Bunnings strip natural oils from wool fibres, leaving them brittle and prone to pilling. Leather fares worse — harsh detergents crack the finish within months.
Heat from a home steam cleaner can bond certain stains — particularly red wine, tomato sauce, and some inks — permanently into synthetic fibres. What started as a removable mark becomes a fixture. We charge $40-$80 more to treat heat-set stains than fresh ones.
