Signs to look for

When to call us for upholstery extraction

As moisture readings guide 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

To control the wet boundary, cushion foam holds enormous amounts of water and releases it under pressure.

The skirt or the base is dark and wicking upward

As moisture readings guide 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

From the source check, dye bleed happens fast on wet fabric, especially on dark prints and velvet. From the source check, once a dye has moved it usually stays moved.

Yellow or tan marks are spreading on light fabric

Through the final dry check, 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

To control the wet boundary, a particleboard frame swells and loses its fasteners once it is wet.

The webbing under the seat is sagging

To control the wet boundary, wet webbing stretches under the weight of soaked foam and does not spring back.

What happens

How we handle upholstery extraction

Our water-damage technicians 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

As moisture readings guide drying, clean supply water gives most furniture a real chance.

The frame source check that decides everything

From the source check, 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

As moisture readings guide drying, every piece is blocked up on foam or plastic risers immediately.

Extraction with an upholstery tool

As moisture readings guide 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

Through the final dry check, cushion covers come off where the construction allows so both faces of the foam get airflow.

Elevated drying on racks with directed airflow

To control the wet boundary, 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

As moisture readings guide drying, we explain the recommended work and price before you approve the job. As moisture readings guide drying, these examples show what may change the estimate.

Common situationWhat the estimate may includeTypical range
Upholstery or mattress extraction, per itemThrough the final dry check, national estimate for clean water only. From the source check, items soaked with contaminated water are removed rather than extracted.$75 to $300
Off site cleaning and controlled drying at a plant, per upholstered pieceTo control the wet boundary, national estimate including transport, wash floor work and drying room time. From the source check, used for heavy soil and delicate goods.$200 to $700
Area rug immersion wash and controlled drying, per square footFrom the source check, national estimate for off site rug work. Through the final dry check, 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 driedFrom the source check, national estimate covering a typical living room set, before any cleaning, foam replacement or repairs.$400 to $1,200
Cushion foam replacement, per cushionTo control the wet boundary, national estimate for new foam cut to the existing cover. From the source check, far cheaper than replacing a sound frame.$50 to $200
Mattress and box spring set, clean water surface wetting onlyThrough the final dry check, national estimate for extraction and drying attempt. Through the final dry check, anything wet deep into the layers is normally replaced instead.$100 to $300
  • Size and construction of the piece
    Through the final dry check, a dining chair takes minutes and a sectional takes hours.

  • Filling type
    Through the final dry check, high resiliency foam extracts and dries predictably.

  • Fabric type
    To control the wet boundary, microfiber and synthetic weaves tolerate cleaning well. As moisture readings guide drying, velvet, silk blends and leather need gentler methods and more careful drying.

  • Water cleanliness
    As moisture readings guide drying, clean water means extraction and cleaning.

  • On site versus off site
    From the source check, on site extraction and rack drying is the cheaper path and keeps your furniture at home.

  • Number of items
    To control the wet boundary, crews price a room of soft goods more efficiently than one chair at a time.

Why timing matters

What can happen when the area stays wet

To control the wet boundary, water can keep moving into nearby materials even when the surface looks dry.

Wicking pulls water up the whole piece

To control the wet boundary, a sofa with legs in water keeps drawing moisture up through the fabric and the frame.

Dye bleed sets permanently

As moisture readings guide drying, wet dye travels between panels, onto piping and into your flooring.

Browning marks light fabric for good

Through the final dry check, natural material in the filling and the backing moves to the surface as a piece dries slowly.

Particleboard frames swell and lose their fasteners

From the source check, engineered panel frames are held with staples and dowels into material that puffs when wet.

Why does furniture get put up on blocks?

As moisture readings guide drying, legs standing in water keep wicking moisture up into the frame and fabric.

Can wet cushion foam be dried, or does it need replacing?

As moisture readings guide drying, high resiliency foam extracts and dries well on a rack with air on both sides.

How long does upholstery drying take?

As moisture readings guide drying, cushioned pieces commonly need two to four days on a drying rack. To control the wet boundary, tight backed furniture and heavy frames run longer.

What about a mattress that got wet?

As moisture readings guide drying, light surface wetting from clean water can sometimes be extracted and dried. Through the final dry check, water deeper than about an inch into the layers usually means replacement.
