Your technician inspects the couch to determine mould type (black, white, green, or mildew), penetration depth, and affected surface area. We use a moisture meter to check foam saturation levels — anything above 16% moisture indicates deep mould colonisation requiring extended treatment. You receive the final fixed price before any work begins.
We place protective sheeting around the work area to prevent spore spread to other furniture or flooring. The couch is thoroughly HEPA-vacuumed using a machine with 99.97% filtration efficiency at 0.3 microns — this captures airborne spores that standard vacuums would blow back into your living space. This step alone removes approximately 70% of surface mould matter.
We apply hospital-grade antifungal solution matched to your mould type. The product is sprayed evenly across all affected fabric and worked into seams and crevices. For deep foam contamination, we inject solution directly into the padding using specialised applicators. Dwell time is 15-30 minutes depending on severity — this is when the active ingredients kill the mycelium root structure.
High-powered extraction removes dead mould matter, antifungal residue, and 95% of moisture from the upholstery. We position the couch for optimal airflow and provide drying recommendations. Most couches are completely dry within 4-6 hours. Before leaving, we walk you through the results, explain aftercare, and confirm the 30-day mould-free Quality Results terms.
Every job is quoted on-site after a quick inspection, so the price is fixed with no surprises.
"Found black mould spreading across the back of our $3,500 sofa where it sat against the wall. Melbourne Couch Cleaning came same-day and treated the whole thing for $320. Mould is completely gone, no smell, and it has been two months with no return. Saved us from having to replace it."
"Quoted $280 on the phone for our mouldy 3-seater, charged exactly $280 after the job. No upselling, no surprise extras. The technician explained everything he was doing and why the products were safe for our two cats. Couch was dry by dinnertime and smells completely fresh now."
"We stored a couch in the garage over winter and brought it inside covered in white mould. Other companies said it was too far gone and refused the job. Melbourne Couch Cleaning treated it with foam injection and saved the entire piece. Cost was $390 instead of $4,000 for a replacement. Absolute lifesaver."

All antifungal products we use for Couch Mould Treatment are Professional safe for households with children and pets. We use hospital-grade solutions registered with the APVMA that are specifically formulated for indoor use. There are no harsh formulated fumes during or after treatment. Pets and children should stay off the couch until it is fully dry (4-6 hours), then it is completely safe for normal use. We carry safety data sheets for every product.
Couch Mould Treatment is not a routine service — you book it when mould appears. After successful treatment, we recommend preventative measures: maintain indoor humidity below 60%, keep furniture 10cm from exterior walls, and make sure good room ventilation. If your Melbourne home has ongoing humidity issues, an annual inspection and preventative antifungal coating application ($80-$120) can prevent mould returning. Most treated couches stay mould-free indefinitely with proper care.
Yes. Every Couch Mould Treatment comes with our 30-day mould-free Quality Results. If mould returns to the treated area within 30 days, we retreat the couch at no additional charge. This Quality Results applies provided the underlying moisture source has been addressed — if condensation is still forming behind the couch, mould will eventually return regardless of treatment. We will advise you honestly about moisture management as part of the service.
DIY mould removal on upholstered furniture fails approximately 80% of the time and often causes additional damage. Vinegar does not kill mould spores effectively on porous materials. Bleach damages fabric fibres, strips colour, and does not penetrate foam where mould roots establish. Scrubbing releases millions of spores into your indoor air. Professional Couch Mould Treatment uses HEPA extraction to contain spores and antifungal solutions that penetrate to the foam layer — neither of which is achievable with household products.
Yes. The musty smell comes from volatile organic compounds released by active mould colonies. Professional Couch Mould Treatment kills the mould at its source, which eliminates odour production permanently. Surface cleaning or fragrance sprays only mask the smell temporarily — it returns within days because the mould is still alive and growing. After our treatment, the musty smell is gone completely once the couch dries.
Melbourne's climate creates ideal mould conditions — cool winters with indoor heating, humid summers, and variable weather in between. Couches develop mould when moisture gets trapped in the foam padding. Common causes include furniture pushed against cold exterior walls (condensation forms behind), poor room ventilation, flood or water damage, and storing furniture in uninsulated garages before bringing it inside. We see the highest Couch Mould Treatment demand in March-May after Melbourne's humid summer months.
