Upholstery Cleaning
Some of you may know that SERVPRO of Alpena cleans carpets, but did you realize we clean upholstery as well?
How and when should upholstery be cleaned?
Because furniture is highly susceptible to dust accumulation and stains, it should be cleaned on a semi-regular basis. This will help to prevent fibers from breaking down and developing holes that may require specialized patching at an even higher price. Depending on the type of furniture you have, it can be fairly inexpensive to keep it in top condition.
We are equipped with a truck mounted and portable carpet extractor so whether the job is big or small we will get the job done and have your carpets looking good as new.
We use only SERVPRO products that specialize in carpets and upholstery. Call SERVPRO of Alpena today to get a free quote 989-354-4940
