Booking upholstery cleaning in Elephant and Castle, step by step

  1. Tell us what needs cleaning. Book online by item, from a single armchair to a corner sofa, and add dining chairs, mattresses or a stain protector if you need them.
  2. Check the fabric. Your technician reads the W, S, WS or X code on the care label, tests a hidden area for colour run and explains which marks are likely to lift.
  3. Clean with low moisture. Each piece is vacuumed, pre-treated and cleaned with low-moisture extraction, so the foam and filling underneath aren’t soaked.
  4. Dry and enjoy. The fabric is brushed for an even finish and you get simple drying and aftercare advice. Most pieces are dry within a few hours.

Upholstery Cleaning in Elephant and Castle: FAQs

Still unsure? Ask us anything.

How soon can you come to Elephant and Castle?

Most bookings can be made for the next working day, subject to availability. Pick any open date and time slot when you book online, or call us for anything urgent.

Do you cover SE1 and SE17?

Yes. We cover every SE1 and SE17 address in and around Elephant and Castle, including the streets around Elephant Park, Michael Faraday Memorial and London College of Communication and homes near Elephant & Castle, as well as Borough, Kennington and the rest of Southwark.

How much does upholstery cleaning cost in Elephant and Castle?

Prices start at £45 for armchair. The price depends on the size of the property and any extras you add, and you see the exact total before you book.

What if I am not happy with the clean?

Tell us within 72 hours and we will send a cleaner back to put it right at no extra cost.

Are your cleaners vetted and insured?

Yes. Every Cosy Maids cleaner is ID-checked and right-to-work checked before their first job, and all work is covered by our public liability insurance.

What does an X code on my sofa label mean?

An X code means the fabric should only be vacuumed or brushed, with no water or solvent cleaning. Liquid can permanently mark or distort these fabrics. If your sofa is coded X, we’ll vacuum it thoroughly and explain the limits honestly rather than attempt a wet clean that could damage it.

Should I put removable sofa cushion covers in the washing machine?

We’d advise against it unless the care label clearly says they’re machine washable. Covers can shrink, fade or lose their shape, and they often won’t fit back over the foam afterwards. Washing one cover can also make it look noticeably different from the rest of the sofa. Cleaning in place keeps everything evenly matched.
