A fabric sofa breathes in everything around it: skin oils, sweat, dust, spills and the fine allergens that float through a home. Woven into the fibres, that soil dulls the colour and can leave a favourite sofa smelling musty. Hot water extraction is the method that actually removes it, flushing the fabric and drawing the dirt back out rather than pushing it deeper.
We clean every common upholstery fabric, from microfibre and polyester to cotton, linen and blends. Each is checked and colour-tested first, then pre-treated and extracted with a solution matched to the weave, so stains and odours lift while the fabric keeps its texture and colour. Delicate fabrics are cleaned more gently, and we will tell you honestly if a fabric needs a low-moisture approach instead.
Big Red has cleaned Singapore's upholstery since 1986, to a standard trusted by the island's leading hotels and offices. Our technicians are IICRC and CRI certified, our solutions are eco-friendly and safe around children and pets once dry, and every clean carries our 30-Day Delight guarantee.
Microfibre, cotton, linen, polyester and blends each behave differently, so we identify the fabric before deciding how to clean it.
We test colour-fastness on a hidden area and pick a cleaning solution matched to the weave, so colour and texture are protected.
Sturdy weaves take full hot water extraction; delicate or moisture-sensitive fabrics are cleaned at low moisture to guard against shrinking and watermarks.
We groom the pile so it sits evenly, then speed the drying so the sofa is ready to use the same day.
On site
We clean microfibre, polyester, cotton, linen and fabric blends. Each is colour-tested first, and delicate fabrics are cleaned more gently or at low moisture.
No. Moisture is controlled and the fabric is colour-tested first, so the sofa is cleaned deeply without over-wetting, shrinking or fading.
Usually a few hours. The fabric is left damp rather than soaked, so the sofa is generally ready to use again the same day.
Yes. Odours are pre-treated and deodorised as part of the clean, rather than covered up.
