Signs to look for

When to call us for upholstery extraction

From damage control through drying, if you notice any of these problems, call us before water has more time to spread into nearby materials.

The cushions are heavy and water comes out when pressed

As each work stage is verified, cushion foam holds enormous amounts of water and releases it under pressure.

The skirt or the base is dark and wicking upward

From damage control through drying, fabric pulls water up out of the floor by wicking, which is why a piece can be soaked six inches up.

Color has transferred onto the carpet or between panels

With clear job steps, dye bleed happens fast on wet fabric, especially on dark prints and velvet. With clear job steps, once a dye has moved it usually stays moved.

Yellow or tan marks are spreading on light fabric

For an accountable recovery, that is browning, natural material in the fabric or the filling coming to the surface as it dries.

The frame flexes or creaks under normal weight

As each work stage is verified, a particleboard frame swells and loses its fasteners once it is wet.

The webbing under the seat is sagging

As each work stage is verified, wet webbing stretches under the weight of soaked foam and does not spring back.

What happens

How we handle upholstery extraction

Our damage-response professionals adjusts the work to what got wet, how far the water traveled, and which materials can be saved.

Piece by piece triage against the water category

From damage control through drying, clean supply water gives most furniture a real chance.

The frame job review that decides everything

With clear job steps, a kiln dried hardwood frame with sound frame joinery is worth drying and often worth a lot.

Getting furniture up and off the wet floor

From damage control through drying, every piece is blocked up on foam or plastic risers immediately.

Extraction with an upholstery tool

From damage control through drying, a hand held upholstery tool with a narrow slot pulls water from the fabric and the foam under it.

Cushions unzipped, extracted and dried separately

For an accountable recovery, cushion covers come off where the construction allows so both faces of the foam get airflow.

Elevated drying on racks with directed airflow

As each work stage is verified, pieces go up on a drying rack so air reaches the underside, the deck and the frame.

Understanding the cost

What can affect the price

From damage control through drying, we explain the recommended work and price before you approve the job. From damage control through drying, these examples show what may change the estimate.

Common situationWhat the estimate may includeTypical range
Upholstery or mattress extraction, per itemFor an accountable recovery, national estimate for clean water only. With clear job steps, items soaked with contaminated water are removed rather than extracted.$75 to $300
Off site cleaning and controlled drying at a plant, per upholstered pieceAs each work stage is verified, national estimate including transport, wash floor work and drying room time. With clear job steps, used for heavy soil and delicate goods.$200 to $700
Area rug immersion wash and controlled drying, per square footWith clear job steps, national estimate for off site rug work. For an accountable recovery, wool and hand knotted rugs sit at the top of the range.$3 to $8
Soft goods in one room, several pieces extracted and rack driedWith clear job steps, national estimate covering a typical living room set, before any cleaning, foam replacement or repairs.$400 to $1,200
Cushion foam replacement, per cushionAs each work stage is verified, national estimate for new foam cut to the existing cover. With clear job steps, far cheaper than replacing a sound frame.$50 to $200
Mattress and box spring set, clean water surface wetting onlyFor an accountable recovery, national estimate for extraction and drying attempt. For an accountable recovery, anything wet deep into the layers is normally replaced instead.$100 to $300
  • Size and construction of the piece
    For an accountable recovery, a dining chair takes minutes and a sectional takes hours.

  • Filling type
    For an accountable recovery, high resiliency foam extracts and dries predictably.

  • Fabric type
    As each work stage is verified, microfiber and synthetic weaves tolerate cleaning well. From damage control through drying, velvet, silk blends and leather need gentler methods and more careful drying.

  • Water cleanliness
    From damage control through drying, clean water means extraction and cleaning.

  • On site versus off site
    With clear job steps, on site extraction and rack drying is the cheaper path and keeps your furniture at home.

  • Number of items
    As each work stage is verified, crews price a room of soft goods more efficiently than one chair at a time.
