Furniture cleaning in Beberbeķi - for private houses with gardens

Large houses and new private housing areas

Suburban private housing is developing actively in Beberbeķi. This means there are both old houses with furniture that has seen years of use and new houses where a corner or U-shaped sofa has not aged yet but has already had its first stains from children or a dog.

A new sofa is worth cleaning before stains set in. The longer a stain stays, the smaller the chance that it will disappear, and hot water or rubbing can only set it. On large models: corner sofa cleaning. If the house has several rooms, read also about furniture cleaning in a private house.

What to combine in one visit

In a private house, several things can usually be combined in one trip, and that makes it easier to reach the €45 minimum. A typical list might look like this, and you choose what you need from it:

• the living room sofa, including a leather sofa;
• the bedroom mattress and an upholstered headboard;
• dining chairs from €7 each;
• terrace cushions, if they are kept indoors;
• a child car seat or car seat, if the car is parked by the house.

When looking after a child car seat, follow its instructions: the straps and buckle are safety parts, and only the care the manufacturer permits is allowed for them. After cleaning, we cannot confirm that the seat keeps its properties.

A leather sofa in a large living room

A large house may have leather or faux leather furniture, and these need a different approach from fabric. Leather is very absorbent, a stain soaks into the material itself, and methods that suit fabric can harm leather. So a leather sofa must not be wetted or dried by a fireplace or radiator: heat dries it out and deforms it.

What you can do day to day: wipe off the dust and do not place the sofa right next to a heater. Do not use creams and oils on finished leather. Faux leather has the same prices as a fabric sofa, but its coating may peel over time, and cleaning will not repair that. A two-seater leather sofa costs from €40, a leather corner sofa from €50 and a leather armchair from €20. More: leather furniture cleaning.

Summer and winter damp in a garden house

There are allotments next to the private houses, and in a garden house that is not heated in winter, an upholstered sofa often takes on a smell of damp. If the smell comes from the surface, it can usually be reduced. If there is mould in the filling, the furniture usually has to be replaced, and it is better to learn that from a photo, not after the work.

After cleaning in a large house, furniture will dry faster where the air moves: open the windows if the weather allows, and do not put blankets on fabric that is still damp. If you rarely keep the windows open because the airport is close, air the room for shorter periods but more often.

Price and travel in Beberbeķi

Travel in Beberbeķi is included, because the neighbourhood is in Riga. The minimum order is €45. Corner sofa from €50, large corner from €60, U-shaped from €65, leather corner from €50, double mattress from €45 per side. The price depends on size, fabric, dirt, smell and distance, and we agree it before the work. Full list: prices.

What we do not promise

Dog hair can usually be collected, but urine that has soaked into the foam may leave a smell. A water ring on light fabric does not always disappear. Pressure marks on velour are a property of the fabric, and they may stay too. All this is better said before the work, and a photo makes that possible.

Before and after moving into a new house

If you are moving to a new suburban house, the furniture may have been standing in storage or in your old flat. It is worth looking it over before it reaches the new living room. After renovation a sofa may need attention, because dust settles in fabric too. There are two pages for this case: furniture cleaning before moving in and furniture cleaning after renovation.

It is better to look over a second-hand sofa bought from an advert before you carry it into the living room. If you see signs of bedbugs, that is a job for pest control, not cleaning. For the rest: second-hand sofa cleaning.

A dog on the sofa

If your dog sleeps on the sofa, after cleaning put a small blanket that can be washed separately on its favourite spot. This will make the next clean easier. Until the fabric is completely dry, it is better not to let the animal on it.
