From coffee spills to the stains that appear out of nowhere, my couch silently bears the brunt of everyday life. And while I’m no neat freak, even I get grossed out sitting on it.
And if I can’t sit on it, there’s absolutely no way I’m letting my niece (who’s finally visiting me after months) use it either.
The problem? I absolutely have no idea how to clean a couch. Tossing random powders and scrubbing away isn’t an option when the couch is still functional and worth preserving.
So, I turned to those who can help: professional upholstery cleaners in London. I looked for those that offer exceptional cleaning without ruining my fabric.
Here are the ones who stood out for their ability to make couches and other upholsteries look (and feel) brand new!
How much does upholstery cleaning cost in London?
Upholstery cleaning in London normally costs between £35 and £100, depending on the size of the furniture, the type of fabric, and the cleaning method used.
How I chose the best upholstery cleaning services in London
- Quality of service: I included companies that know how to properly clean furniture without damaging it. I talked to customers and noted the services that were praised for spotless results.
- Communication: I searched for companies with staff who are polite, professional, and can articulate their answers during conversations with potential clients.
- Cost-effectiveness: I looked for companies that offer affordable yet exceptional upholstery cleaning services. I determined this by comparing each company with the other.

1. London Sofa&Carpet Cleaning Services
Address: 244A York Wy
Phone: +44 7780 850050
Business hours: Available 24/7
Most of London Sofa&Carpet Cleaning Services’ clients have nothing but good words about their services. Having many people vouch for them is enough for me to hire them to clean my furniture, and I didn’t regret it.
I was very impressed by how fast they finished the job. What’s even better is that they get the job done quickly without compromising quality.
For upholstery cleaning, they offer at least three kinds of services. They can clean sofas, mattresses, and all types of leather.
What I love most is their 24/7 operation. You can hire them to clean your furniture at any time of day. This is beneficial to those who have a tight schedule and only have certain spare time.
However, they only operate in Kensington and the surrounding areas. It’s best to contact them first and inquire if your place is within their scope of operation.
Thank you for the excellent service
“We recently had the carpets and upholstery at our hotel professionally cleaned by this company using the steam cleaning method with industrialgrade equipment. The results were outstanding — deep stains and built-up dirt were completely removed, and the fabric looks fresh and renewed. They handled both the hotel lobby carpets and furniture upholstery with great care and professionalism. If you’re looking for a reliable company for commercial carpet cleaning or hotel upholstery steam cleaning, we highly recommend them. Thank you for the excellent service and attention to detail! We’ll definitely be using your services again”

The best upholstery cleaning service in London
“This has got to the best upholstery cleaning service in London – certainly the best ever I’ve ever used. My stained sofa, my armchairs, my dining chairs were transformed from grimy and dirty to almost brand new in a matter of minutes – in front of my own eyes. The technician was not only skilled and knowledgeable in his work but his prices were extremely reasonable. I thought it would cost the earth- but not so! I don’t think I have ever been as pleased with any service provider in the past as I was with this one. Simply delighted with every aspect: from first phone call to the end. A very well deserved 5 stars. Five stars +++++ Recommend him very highly without reservation.”

2. VIP Carpet Cleaning London
Address: 304A Ballards Ln
Phone: +44 20 8050 3535
Business hours:
- Mon-Fri: 8 AM – 8 PM
- Sat: 9 AM – 6 PM
- Sun: 10 AM – 5 PM
I love how polite VIP Carpet Cleaning London’s staff were towards me throughout our conversation. Their respectful attitude made me very comfortable talking to them. They didn’t make me feel like I was an inconvenience.
One of their strengths is their London-wide and beyond operation. This makes their services more accessible to a wider clientele. I mean, coffee spills don’t just happen in Central London, do they?
When it comes to upholstery cleaning, they provide at least three kinds of services. What’s remarkable is that they can clean every size of mattress, from single to super king size.
Most of their past clients I spoke to said that they’re very skilled in cleaning sofas. They vacuum them first to ensure there’s no dirt before proceeding with the actual cleaning, where they use specialised products..
They’re always fully booked, though, so I highly recommend contacting them as soon as possible to secure a slot.
First class experience all around
“I had a rug that had some serious pet stains and I couldn’t remove. I found Mahdi on Google Maps / Google on a whim given all the amazing reviews. I sent a few photos across and he told me he will bring the right equipment to tackle this particular stain (tailored service!) In addition to this, Mahdi and his team are warm, friendly and very responsive to appointments and queries and also have given me home tips on their visit They have gone above and beyond. Massively professional thorough service spotting marks on my sofa that I hadn’t even seen! I’ve now called Mahdi and his team back on multiple occasions. I also want to give a big thank you to Mahdi (who is the business owner) for the good chats and going above and beyond 🙂 highly recommend to all for First Class experience all around.”
They are always so thorough and honest
“Honestly Mahdi and his team are amazing. They are always so thorough and honest. I’ve never seen someone so dedicated to what they do with such passion. Thank you for revitalising our home. They are trustworthy individuals who I would be happy to leave in my home. Look at all the dirt they pulled out. And look at the difference between the sofas …..”

3. Premium Clean
Address: 10 Filmer Rd
Phone: +44 7774 518219
Business hours: Mon-Fri: 8:30 AM – 5:30 PM
What drove me to include Premium Clean on this list is their over 16 years of professional experience. They have consistently delivered exceptional service since their first year in the industry.
They provide at least four services, including cleaning car upholstery, which not all companies usually have.
Additionally, they can use eco-friendly cleaning products upon request, which is a huge plus. This is a great option if you have pets and children at home. And of course, it’s great for you as well.
I also love that they operate beyond their business hours. You can hire them to clean your furniture on Saturday if you’re busy during weekdays.
The only issue I have with them is that some of the cleaners occasionally run late on appointments.
The service was impeccable
“I loved the fact that Premium Clean were the least expensive and the service was impeccable. The place looks brand new and 2 rooms for the price of one plus not too many questions about the quality of the carpet and they did not refuse me because I had no lift. Would recommend and really wanted to tip but parking charges in my area are severe and grateful I did not have to pay congestion as I named the time and day and got what I wanted. Thanks Nikolai for being efficient. Really premium quality and everything is as good as new! I will be back!”

We will definitely use this company again
“I highly appreciate service of the cleaning company. It was scheduled easily, they came on time, and inspite of our absence in the flat they could arrange everything : Nikolay contacted me by whats up, we discussed the details, he took out all movable furniture and staff to the corridor and perfectly did his job. He sent me photos before and after. I can confirm that job was done most professionally. I also appreciate his personal attitude and attention to the deatails. We will definitely use this company again.”

4. Prolux Cleaning
Address: 205 Gateshead Rd
Phone: +44 20 3318 6387
Business hours:
- Mon-Fri: 7 AM – 9 PM
- Sat-Sun: 9 AM – 6 PM
What makes Prolux Cleaning so great at what they do is their over a decade of experience. They started in 2012 and have just continuously improved since.
If you’re looking for professionals who are skilled in cleaning mattresses, they are the ideal company to consult. Most of their clients I spoke with praised them for successfully removing the discolorations from their mattresses.
They also clean sofas, chairs, and all office furniture. This makes them a one-stop shop if you’re looking to deep clean every furniture you have at home or your office.
What’s amazing is that they offer a same-day cleaning service. It’s a huge help, especially when you’re expecting visitors and want to have presentable furniture for them.
I also appreciate how professional the team is throughout the process. Some customers even said that the team provided helpful maintenance advice after finishing the job.
That said, they only operate in select areas within London. Reach out to them first to verify if your area is within their operation.
Outstanding service
“Outstanding Service, Highly Recommended I recently hired Proluxcleaning Ltd for a deep clean of my one bedroom flat, and I couldn’t be more impressed. From start to finish, the team was professional, punctual and incredibly thorough. Every corner of my home was spotless, and they genuinely exceeded my expectations. Their attention to detail, efficiency and friendly approach made the whole experience smooth and stress free. I’ll definitely be using their services again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for a top quality clean. Thank you, Proluxcleaning, you did a brilliant job.”

Absolutely amazing
“Tisho was absolutely amazing. He run the machine twice to make sure he did his very best. The previous person who rented the room had a dog living in there for 3 years so you can imagine the marks. Apart from that coffee spill and make up and nail varnish covered the floor. I personally have never seen any carpet in such a state. I thought it was an impossible job. I can not begin to thanks Tisho the amazing job he did! I genuinely thought 50% will stay but he managed to remove nearly all the marks and it smells so clean. I am so happy with the service and I will definitely recommend the company and him to others. The before after photo speaks for itself”

5. 4 Seasons Carpet Clean
Address: 47 Westbourne Terrace
Phone: +44 20 3488 1970
Business hours: Mon-Sat: 7 AM – 6 PM
What I love most about 4 Seasons Carpet Clean is their pricing transparency. It helped me a lot in comparing and determining if they deserve a spot on this list.
Their pricing is within the industry standard, which is great for an exceptional service provider.
Another thing I appreciate is that they’re very easy to communicate with. They reply quickly to emails and try their best to articulate their answers during the interview I conducted.
When it comes to their services, they offer at least three kinds of upholstery cleaning. You can hire them to clean your beloved sofas, mattresses, and chairs.
What’s even better is that they’re very skilled in removing any kind of stain. Many of their customers said the team was able to remove stains caused by glue, coffee, and more.
Although they operate in almost all London regions, they don’t serve the whole city. It’s best to ask them as soon as possible to know if you can hire them.
The water was blacker than black!
“Shahab and Maysam responded to my request for common area staircase and hallway cleaning, a bedroom and a lounge together with a hallway entrance. They arrived on time, have to be amongst the most polite contractors I have ever worked, with and returned our carpets back in to a healthy, clean state. ‘Merci’ to you both very much. The pictures shown of the hallway and staircase reflect a very different view of what they look like before the team of two worked on them. 🙏🏼. The water was blacker than Black!”

The team was super helpful and really professional
“The team was super helpful and really professional. Not only did they manage to get new life out of our cat loved couch…. But our rugs look like new. Thank you so much for the excellent service – we will definitely be using you again. Also thanks for all the tips about how to treat future spills – word to the (newly) wise – rather leave a stain for even up to 2/3 days than use a product on it. Otherwise all they can do is “improve” the stain, more likely than not your detergent will have a bleach in it that will affect the fabric forever”
