Signs to look for

When to call us for upholstery extraction

As the home starts over, 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 put this behind you, cushion foam holds enormous amounts of water and releases it under pressure.

The skirt or the base is dark and wicking upward

As the home starts over, 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

For a clean slate, dye bleed happens fast on wet fabric, especially on dark prints and velvet. For a clean slate, once a dye has moved it usually stays moved.

Yellow or tan marks are spreading on light fabric

On the way back to normal, 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 put this behind you, a particleboard frame swells and loses its fasteners once it is wet.

The webbing under the seat is sagging

To put this behind you, wet webbing stretches under the weight of soaked foam and does not spring back.

What happens

How we work through upholstery extraction

Our fresh-start team adjusts the work to what ended up wet, how far the water traveled, and which materials can be saved.

Piece by piece triage against the water category

As the home starts over, clean supply water gives most furniture a real chance. For a clean slate, appliance or drain water is often restorable too, and synthetic covered pieces are commonly cleaned once the filling has been extracted.

The frame assessment that decides everything

For a clean slate, 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 the home starts over, every piece is blocked up on foam or plastic risers immediately.

Extraction with an upholstery tool

As the home starts over, 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

On the way back to normal, cushion covers come off where the construction allows so both faces of the foam get airflow.

Elevated drying on racks with directed airflow

To put this behind you, pieces go up on a drying rack so air reaches the underside, the deck and the frame.

Readings on the foam and the frame, not the surface

Day 2 to 4

Understanding the cost

What can affect the price

As the home starts over, we explain the recommended work and price before you approve the job. As the home starts over, these examples show what may change the estimate.

Common situation	What the estimate may include	Typical range
Upholstery or mattress extraction, per item	National estimate for clean water only. Items soaked with contaminated water are cleared out instead of extracted.	$75 to $300
Off site cleaning and controlled drying at a plant, per upholstered piece	To put this behind you, national estimate including transport, wash floor work and drying room time. For a clean slate, used for heavy soil and delicate goods.	$200 to $700
Area rug immersion wash and controlled drying, per square foot	For a clean slate, national estimate for off site rug work.	$3 to $8
Soft goods in one room, several pieces extracted and rack dried	For a clean slate, national estimate covering a typical living room set, before any cleaning, foam replacement or repairs.	$400 to $1,200
Cushion foam replacement, per cushion	To put this behind you, national estimate for new foam cut to the existing cover. For a clean slate, far cheaper than replacing a sound frame.	$50 to $200
Mattress and box spring set, clean water surface wetting only	On the way back to normal, national estimate for extraction and drying attempt.	$100 to $300

Size and construction of the piece
On the way back to normal, a dining chair takes minutes and a sectional takes hours.
Filling type
On the way back to normal, high resiliency foam extracts and dries predictably.
Fabric type
To put this behind you, microfiber and synthetic weaves tolerate cleaning well. As the home starts over, velvet, silk blends and leather need gentler methods and more careful drying.
Water cleanliness
Clean water means extraction and cleaning. Appliance or drain water adds a cleaning stage, and synthetic covered pieces usually come through it.
On site versus off site
For a clean slate, on site extraction and rack drying is the cheaper path and keeps your furniture at home.
Number of items
To put this behind you, 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 put this behind you, water can keep moving into nearby materials even when the surface looks dry.

Wicking pulls water up the whole piece

To put this behind you, a sofa with legs in water keeps drawing moisture up through the fabric and the frame.

Dye bleed sets permanently

As the home starts over, wet dye travels between panels, onto piping and into your flooring.

Browning marks light fabric for good

On the way back to normal, natural material in the filling and the backing moves to the surface as a piece dries slowly.

Particleboard frames swell and lose their fasteners

For a clean slate, engineered panel frames are held with staples and dowels into material that puffs when wet.

Common questions

Questions about upholstery extraction

Can a soaked couch be saved?

As the home starts over, often yes if the water was clean and we get to it within a day.

How do you decide what is worth saving?

For a clean slate, we look at the frame first, then the filling, then the fabric. For a clean slate, a good frame justifies drying, foam can be replaced, and fabric can usually be cleaned.

Why does furniture get put up on blocks?

As the home starts over, 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 the home starts over, high resiliency foam extracts and dries well on a rack with air on both sides.

How long does upholstery drying take?

As the home starts over, cushioned pieces commonly need two to four days on a drying rack. To put this behind you, tight backed furniture and heavy frames run longer.

What about a mattress that got wet?

For a clean slate, light surface wetting from clean water can occasionally be extracted and dried. On the way back to normal, water deeper than about an inch into the layers usually means replacement.

Should the work happen at my house or off site?

As the home starts over, on site extraction and rack drying is cheaper and keeps your furniture with you.
