I was very happy with the carpet cleaning service from Dr. Steemer. The pricing was fair, and the technician took the time to explain what needed to be done instead of rushing through the job. They arrived on time and did an excellent job on some difficult stains.
We recently hired Dr. Steemer for a deep clean of our Fort Lauderdale office, and the results were outstanding. The team was punctual, professional, and handled our workspace with great care.
Our dog had an accident on the mattress, and we were concerned about both the stain and the odor. Dr. Steemer was able to schedule us quickly and the technician did a very thorough cleaning.

Upholstery cleaning is the process of removing dirt, stains, allergens, and bacteria from your furniture. Sofas, chairs, recliners, and cushions collect body oils, pet hair, and dust every day. Regular wiping only cleans the top layer. This service reaches inside the fabric and padding where buildup hides.
Dr. Steemer cleans sofas, chairs, and all types of furniture fabric across Miami-Dade Counties. Our truck-mounted system pushes heated water and a citrus-based solution into the material. Strong suction pulls everything out. No residue stays behind.
The same process works for offices, lobbies, and commercial spaces. Miami-Dade humidity pushes mold and moisture into cushion foam fast. Routine cleaning removes what spot treating misses. It helps furniture last years longer.
Sofas, recliners, and sectionals lose their look fast with daily use. Our sofa cleaning service pulls out trapped dirt and body oils from every cushion. Food spills and grime in tight spots get fully removed. Fabric feels softer and colors look brighter after one session.
What You Get:
Office chairs, lobby seats, and waiting room furniture collect sweat, dust, and germs from heavy foot traffic. Our team cleans around your schedule with evening and weekend slots. Your workspace stays fresh and healthy for staff and clients.
What You Get:
Leather absorbs sweat and oils that cause cracking and dark spots over time. Our leather couch cleaning uses pH-balanced conditioners that lift grime and restore moisture. No water extraction is used. The surface stays smooth, soft, and protected.
What You Get:
Pet urine soaks past the surface into cushion foam where odors grow and spread. Our odor treatment specialists use enzyme-based solutions that break down urine at the source. Your furniture comes back fresh and free of lingering pet smells.
What You Get:
Spills and stains happen. Fabric protection adds an invisible shield that blocks liquids from soaking into the fibers. It gives you time to blot and clean before a stain sets. This coating extends the life of your upholstery between cleanings.
What You Get:
Every piece gets checked before any cleaning starts. Our team tests the material and reads the manufacturer tag to find the right cleaning code. This tells us which method is safest for your furniture.
Loose particles, pet fur, and surface buildup get removed first. This step clears the way for a deeper clean and keeps dry soil from turning into mud during the wet phase.
Problem areas get treated with targeted solutions before the full clean begins. Wine marks, grease spots, ink, and food residue each need a different approach. Pre-treating gives tough spots the extra time they need to break down.
Heated water and a plant-based cleaning solution get pushed into the material. Powerful suction then pulls out all the soil, residue, and moisture in one pass. Nothing gets left behind. No soapy film. No chemical smell.
High-velocity air movers are placed around the furniture to speed up dry time. Our team does a final walkthrough with you to make sure every piece meets your expectations. Most items are ready to use the same evening.
Not every material can be cleaned the same way. Using the wrong method causes shrinkage, color bleed, or water marks. Our team checks every piece and matches the right approach to your specific textile.
Durable and common in Miami-Dade Counties homes. Responds well to water-based extraction. Dries quickly and holds color after cleaning.
Natural textiles that need gentle handling. We adjust water temperature and pressure to avoid shrinkage or wrinkling.
Soft pile materials that show crush marks and waterlines easily. Low-moisture techniques keep the texture intact.
Cannot handle water. These get a solvent-based dry treatment that lifts soil without changing the nap or feel.

Q: How much does upholstery cleaning cost in Miami-Dade Counties?
Upholstery cleaning cost in Miami-Dade Counties depends on the number of pieces, fabric type, and level of soiling. A single sofa typically runs between 100 and 200 dollars. Sectionals and specialty fabrics like suede or velvet may cost more due to extra care. Leather furniture cleaning uses a different method with conditioners, so pricing varies. Most companies charge per piece rather than per room. Always ask for a free estimate before booking so you know the full cost upfront. Dr. Steemer provides clear pricing with no hidden charges on every furniture cleaning job near you.
Q: How often should you clean upholstery in Florida?
You should get your upholstery cleaned every 12 to 18 months for normal use. Homes with pets, kids, or allergy issues do better with cleaning every 6 to 9 months. Broward and Miami-Dade weather creates conditions where dust mites, mold spores, and moisture build up inside cushions faster than in dry climates. Rooms with heavy use like living rooms may need more frequent care. Most furniture makers require routine cleaning to keep your warranty valid. A regular schedule stops permanent marks, odor buildup, and fiber wear that cut your furniture life short.
Q: What is the best method for cleaning upholstery?
Hot water extraction is the top method for furniture cleaning. A machine pushes heated water and a cleaning solution into the fabric. Then strong suction pulls out all the soil and moisture. This method reaches what wiping and vacuuming leave behind. The IICRC and most furniture makers endorse it as the safest approach for both residential and commercial upholstery. Some fabrics like suede and silk need solvent-based dry cleaning instead. A trained upholstery cleaner near you will check your fabric type and cleaning code tag before picking the right method.
Q: Is upholstery cleaning safe for homes with kids and pets?
Yes, sofa cleaning is safe for homes with kids and pets when done with non-toxic solutions. Dr. Steemer uses a plant-based, chemical-free formula that leaves no harmful residue on the material. Children and pets can return to the seating as soon as it dries, usually within 3 to 5 hours. Avoid companies that use harsh solvents or heavy perfumes, as these can irritate skin and lungs. Ask your cleaner what products they use before the job starts. Eco-friendly fabric cleaning gives you a fresh result without putting your family at risk.
Q: How long does upholstery take to dry after cleaning?
Most pieces dry within 3 to 6 hours after cleaning. The exact time depends on fabric thickness, room airflow, and humidity levels. Broward and Miami-Dade homes may take slightly longer due to higher indoor moisture. Running your air conditioning and ceiling fans speeds up the process. Leather and vinyl items dry faster since they do not absorb water the same way woven textiles do. Your cleaning team may place air movers around each piece to cut dry time in half. You can sit on the seating with clean hands once the surface feels dry to the touch.
Q: Can upholstery cleaning remove old stains?
Yes, stain removal works on most common marks including food, wine, coffee, ink, grease, and pet stain accidents. The key is pre-treating the affected area with a targeted solution before the full extraction begins. Older spots that have set into the material may need multiple treatments to fully lift. Some textiles like silk or antique pieces carry a higher risk of color loss during stain work, so a fabric test is always done first. Dr. Steemer treats every mark based on its type and the material it sits on. Results depend on how long the spot has been there and what caused it.
Q: What is the difference between upholstery steam cleaning and dry cleaning?
The main difference between upholstery steam cleaning and dry cleaning is water. Steam cleaning uses heated water and suction to flush grime out of the material. Dry cleaning uses solvents or powders that get worked into the surface and then vacuumed away. Steam gives a deeper result and works best for common fabrics like polyester, microfiber, and cotton. Dry cleaning is safer for delicate items like suede, silk, and velvet that cannot handle moisture. Your cleaner should always check the tag on each piece before choosing a method.
Q: Does upholstery cleaning help with allergies?
Yes, furniture cleaning helps cut down allergy and asthma triggers at home. Your seating holds dust mites, pollen, pet dander, and mold spores that normal vacuuming misses. Pet odor and dander buildup also worsen breathing issues over time. Extraction flushes these out of the padding. The EPA says cleaning soft items helps indoor air quality in warm, humid areas. A chemical-free solution adds no new irritants to the material. Pairing upholstery care with duct cleaning gives the best odor removal and allergy relief indoors.
Q: How is leather furniture cleaned differently?
Leather cleaning needs a different approach than fabric care. Water-based extraction can damage leather by stripping its natural oils and causing cracks. Instead, a leather couch cleaning specialist uses pH-balanced conditioners and gentle wiping to lift grime and bring back moisture. This keeps the surface soft, prevents peeling, and holds its color over time. Full-grain, bonded, and faux leather each respond differently, so your cleaner should know the type before starting. Dr. Steemer checks every leather piece first and uses the right treatment to match.
Q: What is fabric protection and is it worth it?
Fabric protection is an optional coating applied after cleaning that creates a barrier against future spills. It works by wrapping each fiber in a thin shield that repels liquids before they soak in. This gives you extra time to blot a spill before it becomes a permanent mark. Most protectors last 12 to 18 months depending on use and foot traffic. It works on cotton, microfiber, polyester, and most blends. The coating does not change the feel or color of your pieces. It simply adds a layer of defense that keeps upholstery looking cleaner for longer between same-day service visits.
South Florida spans Miami-Dade Counties along the southeastern coast. The region is home to over six million residents. It is also one of the fastest-growing metro areas in the country. Temperatures stay warm year round and rarely drop below 60 degrees. Most months, humidity sits above 70 percent. Coastal salt air, tropical storms, and sandy soil are part of daily life here.
The area is known for beaches, tourism, and steady residential and commercial growth. Most homes and businesses keep the AC running all day. That pulls pollen, dust, and outdoor particles deep into carpet fibers and padding. This tropical climate makes regular carpet cleaning a must for any clean home.
