Sofa and Upholstery Cleaning in Tallinn | Kodukoristus Tallinn

Kodukoristus Tallinn cleans sofas, armchairs, mattresses, fabric-covered chairs and carpets using a hot water extraction method that forces the cleaning solution into the fabric and pulls it back out with the dirt in the same session. Before applying the liquid, we test the colourfastness on a hidden corner of the piece of fabric, because hand-dyed fabric releases colour when exposed to moisture.

Kodukoristus Tallinn is a cleaning company operating in Kristiine since 2013, whose cleaner checks the type of fabric and filling before choosing a method. Sofa and upholstered furniture can be cleaned with deep cleaning in the same visit, because the floors and surfaces are already clean by then. From 2013 to the end of 2025, cleaners cleaned 1,089 sofas, 1,412 mattresses, 1,979 chairs and 225 carpets in 1,878 visits.

What We Clean

Upholstered furniture cleaning covers sofas, mattresses, chairs and carpets.

  • Deep cleaning of the mattress with an extraction machine and a hand nozzle, the sheets are put back only after four hours of drying.

    Deep cleaning of the mattress

    Mattress cleaning removes accumulated sweat and skin particles with dry-cleaning powder and vacuuming. We treat protein-based marks such as sweat and urine with an enzyme product before extraction.

    Kodukoristus Tallinn cleans the mattress from both sides, because in the naturally ventilated bedroom of Nõmme and Pirita's older private houses, the side of the mattress at the bottom of the bed remains wetter and dust mites multiply in damp conditions.

  • Cleaning of chairs and armchairs, an employee cleans a green armchair with a hand nozzle, in 2025, 279 dining chairs and armchairs were extracted.

    Cleaning of chairs and armchairs

    Cleaning chairs and armchairs differs from sofas in that the wooden frame and joints of the dining chair are visible and must not be saturated with liquid, because moisture softens the adhesive joint and the chair begins to wobble over time.

    Kodukoristus Tallinn cleans the fabric surface of the dining chair with a narrower nozzle and a limited amount of liquid, while the other cloth wipes the wooden frame dry at the same time, so that water never reaches the wood.

  • Carpet cleaning, worker washes light carpet with extraction nozzle, 10 cm narrow extraction nozzle is provided for carpet edges that extends to baseboard.

    Carpet Cleaning

    Carpet cleaning starts with combing the hair in a uniform direction, because the undirected hair leaves a trace of the movement of the extraction machine on the carpet, which appears streaky in the light, and ends with extraction by the same machine, which pulls back all the added liquid along with the dirt.

    Kodukoristus Tallinn cleans the 1-meter-wide strip of carpet behind the door with a separate additional pass, because sand and street dust carried in by the door accumulates.

Sofa and Upholstery Cleaning Prices

Pricing depends on the item: cleaning a three-seater sofa starts at €61 and a mattress at €54. We cleaned 265 upholstered furniture items in 2025. Travel within Tallinn is free.

What affects the price:

  • item size: a double sofa costs less than a corner sofa with a larger wash area
  • fabric type: leather and alcantara require a different substance than chenille or cotton blend
  • nature of stains: protein-based stain requires enzyme treatment, which adds a separate standing time to the work
  • the amount of pet hair, because the hair must be removed separately with a rubber brush before treating with the liquid
  • additional fan in a room where there is no air circulation

How Long Does Upholstered Furniture Cleaning Take?

Dry cleaning a three-seater sofa takes 1 hour and 30 minutes, because the seating surface and the number of pillows are larger than on an armchair. Deep cleaning of the mattress for two mattresses in one bedroom takes 1 hour. The cleaning of one armchair lasts 20 minutes, and 4 chairs ordered at the same time are cleaned consecutively in one visit. Upholstered furniture cleaning took an average of 1 hour and 30 minutes in 2025.

Carpet cleaning on a 6-square-meter carpet takes 45 minutes, including hair combing and extraction, for a larger carpet that covers the entire living room, we calculate 6 minutes extra time per 1 square metre.

Before applying the liquid, we always test the colourfastness on a hidden piece of fabric near the back leg of the sofa and wait 5 minutes to see if the colour starts to dye the cloth. The fabric that dyes the cloth is cleaned using a dry cleaning method that does not use moisture at all.

We will respond to the request within one hour during office hours, and a cleaner with an extraction machine will reach the upholstered furniture within two working days. Upholstered furniture is cleaned at a separate time from regular home cleaning, because the room must have air circulation after cleaning and you must not sit on the sofa for an hour.

The cleaner with the extraction machine by the sofa, in the case of an unknown stain, he calls a senior colleague before treatment and they choose the tool together.
The dining room of Pirita's older private house, four dining chairs on the protective film, damp dark spots on the first two chairs, a blue extraction machine and hand nozzles next to it, pine trees visible from the window, the fabric of the dining chair is dabbed from the edge of the stain to the centre so that it does not spread on the fabric.

Our Work Process

Three steps from fabric detection to a dry sofa.

  1. 1. Fabric Identification and Testing

    On site, we identify the type of fabric and test the colourfastness in a hidden corner. Leather and alcantara immediately fall into a separate category, because they do not use water extraction, but a cleaning fluid and microfibre cloth intended for the material.

  2. 2. Vacuuming and Liquid Application

    Before wet cleaning, we vacuum the surface with a narrow nozzle to remove loose dust, hair and debris, because wet dust and hair stick between the fabric fibres. Only after that, a cleaning solution is applied and enzyme treatment is applied to protein-based stains.

  3. 3. Extraction and Inspection

    The extraction machine pulls the liquid back out together with the dirt, and the last suction cycle with clean water leaves so little moisture in the fabric that the surface is dry to the touch after 3 hours. We will clean the issue of upholstered furniture free of charge if you report it within 19 hours.

How to Choose a Cleaning Method for Upholstered Furniture

The type of fabric will decide whether to use water extraction, dry cleaning or gentler hand cleaning.

Fabric Furniture

Chenille, woven polyester and cotton blends withstand hot water extraction well and dry in room air without any after-effects. After extraction, the pile of these fabrics is wet brushed in a uniform direction.

Leather and Alcantara

We clean leather with a product made for leather, followed by a conditioning treatment. Alcantara is cleaned with a dry brush and a small amount of liquid, because excess moisture can leave water marks.

Delicate and Vintage Fabrics

We clean hand-woven or older fabrics, whose colourfastness test shows that the colour has come off, using the dry cleaning method without adding water. This method is slower and avoids damaging the fabric and dye bleeding.

Frequently Asked Questions

How soon can you sit on the couch after cleaning?

You can sit down after 1 hour, the fabric is dry to the touch after 3 hours, and the filling takes 6 hours to dry in a ventilated room. The drying process is described in more detail on the couch dry cleaning page.

Will every stain come out?

Fresh food, drink and dirt stains come out completely with hot water extraction. An old stain oxidized into the fabric, for example a wine splash from years ago, leaves a light shade because the colour pigment is permanently bound to the fibre structure.

Do you also clean leather furniture?

Yes, we use a separate cleanser for the leather and a nourishing treatment oil afterwards, not the same water extraction we use for the fabric. Leather should never be soaked in water as it will warp and harden the leather fibres.

Is cleaning suitable for allergy sufferers?

Yes. We record the need for a fragrance- and dye-free product in the home record. Hot-water extraction and dry-cleaning powder can reduce dust mites and pet allergens; the cleaning solution is used at 60°C.

What should I move before the cleaner arrives?

The customer first removes the decorative pillows and smaller items from the sofa and armchairs, larger pieces of furniture, such as shelves around the sofa, are moved by the cleaner himself.

How Often Should You Deep Clean Your Sofa?

A sofa used daily should be deep cleaned once a year, and in a family with a pet twice a year, because the pet's fur and skin secretions accumulate in the filling faster.

How do you remove pet hair from a sofa?

Before treating with the liquid, the cleaner removes the pet's hair with a rubber brush and vacuums the surface with a narrow nozzle, because the hair mixed with the liquid turns into a sticky mass that soaks deeper into the fabric.

In which areas do you perform upholstery cleaning?

We clean upholstered furniture throughout Tallinn and in Maardu, Viimsi, Saue, Keila and Rae Parish. Travel outside Tallinn is charged at €0.71/km from our Kristiine base.
