Seats and backs
Count loose seat and back cushions, and identify fixed pads. Tell us about marks on reverses and edges as well as upper faces. Confirm the surfaces included, particularly if a cushion has different material underneath.
FURNISHED SEATING · HENDON
Upholstery Cleaning Hendon
For a furnished handover, decide which seats need treatment before the room is emptied or inspected. Tell us about the pieces that will remain, their covers and the marks involved. We can discuss an upholstery appointment and the practical timing at the Hendon address.
- Remaining furniture listed
- Handover timing discussed
- Surfaces and total agreed
List what stays in the property.
Identify the sofa, armchairs and upholstered footstools that belong to the furnished room. Explain which pieces need general cleaning and which have a particular mark. Include cushions you want considered, and make clear when furniture is being removed rather than left for the next occupant.
A handover list is useful for describing the requested work, but cleaning cannot guarantee an inspection result or a deposit outcome. Discuss the actual furniture concerns and the required timing so the appointment has a practical purpose beyond simply naming a moving date.
Plan the visit around removals and access.
Arrange the furniture clean when belongings can be cleared from the seats and the working route is open. Tell us which items will remain in place and whether removals happen before the visit. Explain entry, stairs, parking and the person who can receive the cleaner.
Assistance with lightweight furniture is part of the service. Discuss heavy moving needs beforehand, especially if a remaining sofa is blocked by boxes or another large item. Agree access and completion arrangements before keys change hands or the receiving person leaves.
Make care information available for the remaining pieces.
Share furniture labels and manufacturer instructions if you have access to them. Explain when the composition is unknown and mention previous cleaning or protective treatments. A tenant, owner or managing contact may hold different information, so collect what is available without guessing missing details.
Photograph the whole piece and any damage alongside the care label. Fading, worn seams and damaged padding differ from soil. Cleaning cannot repair those changes, and the condition should be clear before a treatment request is included in the handover plan.
Agree treatment for the furniture being retained.
We offer hot water extraction and dry cleaning for delicates. Discuss which option suits the cover, condition and any care restrictions. Ask about the proposed surfaces, stain work and preparation, including the loose pieces that need their own inclusion in the quote.
If protection is proposed, confirm suitability and whether it is included or charged separately. Ask what aftercare information should be passed to the receiving occupant. The furniture appointment should have a clearly described treatment and total before it is booked.
Make the cushion inventory part of the enquiry.
Separate accessories
List decorative cushions or a footstool you want treated. Give their care information where available and agree inclusion. Keep covers and fillings assembled unless preparation advice says otherwise; removable does not establish a laundering service.
Describe incidents before belongings leave.
For a spill, explain the substance if known, when it happened and products already used. Photographs taken before removals can show the position clearly. For a pet incident or smell, give the history and recurrence separately from a visible mark.
Complete stain or odour removal cannot be promised. Permanent colour changes, wear and effects within filling may limit the result. Discuss the concern realistically and avoid repeated home treatments just before the appointment, particularly when the cover’s instructions are uncertain.
Allow for aftercare before the seating is used.
Drying varies with material, method, filling and room conditions. Ask when treated seating can return to use and how loose cushions should be left. Explain the handover timing before booking so access and aftercare can be discussed together.
Keep throws and belongings away until advised they can return. Make sure the person receiving the furniture has the relevant aftercare guidance if another contact attends the clean. A change of keys should not leave the next occupant guessing how to use recently treated upholstery.
Confirm the separate furniture total.
A two-seat sofa starts from £36 for extraction or £42 for dry cleaning; a three-seat sofa starts from £102 or £114. An armchair starts from £15 or £19. Size, fabric and condition affect the quote, so describe the actual retained pieces and cushion requests.
Check inclusions, availability and the complete price before booking. Figures can vary by area, and applicable congestion charges are additional. The price information provides a starting reference; agree the furniture work alongside any separate property clean.
Coordinate the furniture with the wider handover.
Discuss end of tenancy cleaning for the property surfaces and carpet cleaning for affected floor coverings. If the need is a reset without a tenancy handover, one-off deep cleaning may be the relevant enquiry. Explain each task so timing, prices and furniture requirements can be agreed.
Send the Hendon address and handover dates.
Give the postcode, furniture list and preferred appointment dates, plus the handover timing. Identify the receiving contact and any key arrangements. Include labels and photographs so availability and the requested upholstery work can be discussed before the property changes hands.
BEFORE THE FURNITURE IS TREATED
Furniture care during a furnished handover
Can I book before the removal boxes are gone?
Explain what will remain and when the working route will be clear. Agree a practical visit that allows access to the furniture rather than expecting cleaning around an unknown removal schedule.
Who should provide the furniture labels?
Use the information available from the tenant, owner or receiving contact. Say when labels are missing, and keep the care details attached to the correct pieces.
Does furniture cleaning guarantee the deposit?
No deposit outcome is promised. Discuss the pieces, marks and requested treatment, then agree the work and total as part of the practical handover arrangements.
What if the cleaner and new occupant meet different contacts?
Agree who provides access and who receives aftercare information. Make sure the guidance reaches the person who will use the treated furniture.
Can a sofa being removed still be included?
Tell us whether it will be present for the appointment and where it will be treated. Include it explicitly in the quotation and timing rather than leaving its location uncertain.
Should cleaning happen immediately before keys are returned?
Discuss the handover date, availability and drying arrangements together. The furniture and access plan need time for the treatment and its particular aftercare.
Which pieces will the next occupant receive?
Send the retained furniture list, condition details and handover timing. We will discuss treatment and a quotation for the upholstery at your Hendon address.
