Melbourne Couch Cleaning provides Couch Odour Removal across Melbourne, VIC-3000 using enzyme-based treatments that break down odour-causing bacteria, pet urine proteins, and organic matter trapped in upholstery fibres. Unlike fragrance sprays that fade within 48 hours, our hospital-grade antimicrobial process eliminates smells at the source. Treatment takes 45-90 minutes per couch, costs between $120-280 depending on severity, and includes a 14-day re-treatment if any odour returns.

Call or text 0485932237 and describe the smell — pet, smoke, mould, or unknown. We ask when it started, what you have tried, and your couch fabric type. Same-day bookings available for Melbourne jobs confirmed before 11am. You receive a price range over the phone and exact quote on-site before any work begins. No surprises, no hidden fees added after the fact.
The technician arrives within the confirmed 2-hour window with UV inspection equipment. For pet odour jobs, UV light reveals urine contamination invisible to the naked eye — we photograph this so you see exactly what we are treating. Fabric type is assessed to confirm safe harsh solutions selection. You receive a written quote before any treatment begins, including whether padding involvement requires additional extraction methods. Assessment takes 10-15 minutes.
Enzyme pre-treatment is applied to all affected areas and left to dwell for 15-30 minutes — this is not rushed because dwell time is what breaks down odour-causing proteins. For severe contamination, a second enzyme application may be required. Hot water injection at 60-80°C extracts broken-down organic matter from fibres and padding. Hospital-grade antimicrobial (compliant with TGA requirements) is then applied to kill remaining bacteria and prevent regrowth. Total treatment time is 45-90 minutes depending on couch size and contamination severity.
Once extraction is complete, we walk you through the treated areas while fabric is still damp — this is when residual odour would be most detectable if treatment was incomplete. You confirm Focused Results before we pack up. We photograph before-and-after UV results for pet urine jobs so you have documentation of the contamination removed. If any concern exists about treatment effectiveness, we discuss re-treatment options on the spot rather than after the fact.
Drying time is 4-8 hours depending on ventilation and humidity — we position the couch for optimal airflow and provide specific drying instructions. You receive aftercare guidance including how to handle any future accidents before they set. Our 14-day re-treatment means if the odour returns within two weeks, we come back and retreat at no additional cost. About 8% of severe pet urine jobs require a second treatment when contamination has reached the subframe — this is covered under the .
Melbourne has its own quirks for couch odour removal — property mix, climate, access challenges. Here's how we adapt the work to suit.
Heritage homes, apartments, retail strips — we adapt couch odour removal method to each building type.
Climate and humidity in Melbourne affect timing — we plan around them, not against them.
Tight streets in parts of Melbourne mean we plan equipment placement and clean-up before booking.
Every job is quoted on-site after a quick inspection, so the price is fixed with no surprises.
You receive a written quote after on-site assessment and before any work begins. The price includes enzyme treatment, extraction, and antimicrobial application — no line items added during or after the job. Our Couch Odour Removal pricing ranges from $120 for single-cushion treatment to $280 for full 3-seater with padding extraction, and you know the exact figure before we start.
Our technicians complete training in odour chemistry, fibre identification, and enzyme application protocols. We carry five different enzyme formulations because pet urine requires different treatment than smoke residue or mould. This is not a sideline service — we handle 15-20 Couch Odour Removal jobs weekly across Melbourne and know what works for each contamination type.
UV inspection lights reveal contamination invisible to the naked eye — essential for accurate pet urine treatment. Our extraction equipment generates 200+ PSI water pressure and industrial vacuum suction, pulling broken-down organic matter from padding that domestic machines cannot reach. The difference between professional extraction and DIY is the difference between removing the source and redistributing it.
We use enzymatic cleaners that break down odour-causing proteins at a molecular level, not fragrance-based products that mask smells for 48 hours then fade. Our primary enzyme range is manufactured in Australia specifically for upholstery application, pH-balanced for fabric safety. This is why our treatments last — we eliminate the source, not the symptom.
If the odour returns within 14 days of treatment, we come back and retreat at no additional cost. About 8% of severe contamination jobs require a second treatment when the problem has penetrated deeper than initial assessment indicated — this protects you from paying twice for the same issue. We document every job with photographs so there is no dispute about what was treated.
Couch Odour Removal takes 45-90 minutes of active treatment time depending on your couch size and contamination severity. A standard 3-seater with moderate pet odour takes approximately 60 minutes. Add 10-15 minutes for initial assessment and 5 minutes for final walkthrough. Your couch will be damp after treatment and requires 4-8 hours drying time before use — we position it for optimal airflow and provide specific drying instructions.
Couch Odour Removal costs $120-280 for individual couches in City of Melbourne Council, with exact pricing depending on size, odour type, and contamination severity. A single-cushion pet urine treatment starts at $120, while a full 3-seater with padding extraction runs $220-280. Lounge suites (3+2+1 or similar configurations) range $380-520. You receive a written quote after on-site assessment and before any work begins — the quoted price is final with no additions.
Yes. Our enzyme cleaners are pH-balanced for upholstery fabrics and will not bleach or damage fibres when correctly applied. Antimicrobial products are TGA-listed and safe for households with children and pets once dry — typically 2-4 hours after treatment. We provide product safety data sheets on request. The treatment does not require special ventilation beyond keeping windows open if convenient. Your couch is completely safe to use once dry.
Most households need Couch Odour Removal only when a specific incident occurs — pet accident, spill that was not cleaned promptly, or odour that develops after humidity exposure. This is not a routine maintenance service like general cleaning. However, households with elderly pets prone to accidents, or smokers who use furniture regularly, may benefit from annual treatment to prevent odour accumulation. We can advise based on your situation during assessment.
Yes. Melbourne Couch Cleaning provides a 14-day re-treatment on all Couch Odour Removal jobs. If the odour returns within 14 days of treatment, we return and retreat at no additional cost. This covers situations where contamination was deeper than initial assessment indicated. About 8% of severe pet urine jobs require a second treatment. If we assess that contamination is too severe for treatment to succeed — typically when urine has reached the couch frame — we tell you honestly rather than take payment for work that will not hold.
Fresh accidents (under 2 hours old) can often be addressed with immediate blotting and enzyme cleaner application. However, dried contamination, especially pet urine over 24 hours old, requires professional treatment for three reasons: store-bought products cannot reach foam padding where 60-80% of the odour sits; incorrect pH products can bleach fabric or set stains permanently; and heat from steam cleaning locks urine proteins into fibres. If your DIY attempt has not resolved the odour within 48 hours, professional treatment is the next step.
