Fine upholstery specialists
Silk, Velvet & Delicate Upholstery Cleaning in London
Specialist care for valuable sofas, chairs, headboards and bespoke furnishings made with silk, velvet, viscose, mohair and other sensitive materials.
Knowledge before cleaning
Delicate upholstery cannot be treated like standard fabric
Fine fibres may show water marks, pile distortion, dye movement, shrinkage or texture changes if the process is too wet or aggressive. Bespoke furniture can also contain multiple fabrics, trims and fillings that require separate consideration.
With more than 15 years of cleaning experience, TEAM Spotless starts with identification, inspection and testing. We then select a fabric-appropriate method and explain the likely result before proceeding.
Inspect
We assess fibre, weave, pile, construction, wear and previous cleaning attempts.
Test
A discreet test helps identify colour, texture and moisture-related risks.
Treat
The cleaning system is adjusted to the material rather than applying a standard process.

Common questions
Delicate upholstery FAQs
How do you know whether a fabric is safe to clean?
We inspect labels and construction, assess the fibre and test an inconspicuous area before selecting a cleaning method.
Can you guarantee complete stain removal?
No. Results depend on the fabric, stain, age and previous treatments. We provide a realistic assessment before treatment.
Do you protect surrounding interiors?
Yes. We work carefully around floors, walls and nearby furnishings and aim to keep disruption to a minimum.
