Fight Stains with Upholstery Protectant

With how often your furniture is used, spills are bound to happen. Ask your Chem-Dry upholstery cleaner about applying a protectant, which creates a barrier around the fibers to help resist stains. This keeps your furniture looking its best year-round and helps it stay cleaner longer between professional cleanings.

Deodorizer to Reduce Non-Living Allergens* with Healthy Home Package

Does anyone in your home suffer from allergies or asthma, making you more keenly aware of allergens and air quality in your home? Soft furnishings such as couches and chairs are actually beneficial to home health because they act like giant filters that absorb and trap common allergens. But, just like any air filter, they must be properly cleaned to remain most effective at trapping particulates as they settle from the air. Our upholstery cleaning method has been tested and proven by a leading independent air quality laboratory to actually remove common non-living household allergens* from the carpets and upholstery we clean. And the special deodorizer our upholstery cleaners use doesn’t just hide or cover up the odors that have been absorbed into your furniture. It actually removes them, keeping your furniture and air fresh for longer. Our Healthy Home Package is our most thorough and extensive process in deep-cleaning upholstered furniture, making your home more suitable and healthier for you and your family.

Healthy Home Package: Deodorizer

Reduces common non-living allergens* from dust mite matter, pet dander, pollen and more
Special deodorizer reaches odors absorbed in your furniture so they aren’t just masked — they’re eliminated
Works on all kinds of furniture, including: beds, mattress tops, and other household items

The Carbonated Secret Revealed

Chem-Dry® gets your furniture clean by lifting dirt and soil to the surface of your furniture’s fabric. Once the contaminants are lifted to the surface, our powerful extraction equipment whisks it away. The secret to Chem-Dry’s drier, healthier upholstery cleaning: millions of tiny effervescent cleaning bubbles. The carbonating solutions penetrate deep into the upholstery, literally exploding dust & dirt off the surface. After this, we use hot water extraction to whisk away dirt particles and ensure a thorough clean. Chem-Dry’s carefully crafted cleaning solutions actually help your sofas, love seats, couches & chairs stay as clean as when they were brand new.
