How Much Does Upholstery Cleaning Cost?
At Sofa Clean, professional upholstery cleaning starts from €10–€20 for an upholstered dining chair, while cleaning a recliner armchair is priced at approximately €20 and footstools or ottomans at €30–€40 .

Below, you'll find our price guide, an explanation of what each service involves and how to get an accurate quotation.
Upholstery Cleaning Price Guide
| Furniture Type | Estimated Cleaning Price |
|---|---|
| Dining Chair — Seat & Back | €10–€20 |
| Recliner Armchair with Footrest | €20 |
| Footstool / Ottoman | €30–€40 |
These prices are guides for individual items. The final quotation depends on the upholstery material, size, construction and condition.
Dining Chair Cleaning — €10–€20
Dining chairs are among the most frequently used pieces of upholstered furniture in many homes.
Fabric seats and backs can develop food stains, drink marks and general soiling from everyday use.
We clean upholstered dining chairs, including both the seat and backrest where suitable.
The price of €10–€20 per chair depends on the amount of upholstery, fabric type and condition.
If you have a matching set of four, six or eight dining chairs, send us photos of the full set. We can assess all the chairs together and provide a quotation for the complete job.
Recliner Armchair Cleaning — €20
Recliner armchairs are different from standard chairs because they often feature an adjustable backrest, a footrest and several separate upholstered sections.
Areas around the armrests, headrest and footrest can collect dirt and body oils through regular use.
During cleaning, particular attention may be needed around the edges, folds and accessible upholstered sections.
Our indicative recliner cleaning price is €20 .
Please send a photo showing the chair and its footrest, preferably in the extended position, so we can assess the areas that need cleaning.
We also check that the upholstery and any accessible parts of the reclining mechanism can be cleaned safely.
Footstool and Ottoman Cleaning — €30–€40
Footstools and ottomans come in different shapes and sizes.
Some are compact upholstered footrests, while others are large padded ottomans used as extra seating or placed in front of a sofa.
They may have fabric-covered tops, padded sides, seams, buttons or additional upholstered panels.
Our indicative price for footstool and ottoman cleaning is €30–€40 , depending on the amount of fabric and the work required.
Smaller and larger designs can differ significantly, so a photograph helps us prepare a more accurate quotation.
Rug Cleaning Prices
In addition to upholstered furniture, Sofa Clean offers cleaning for suitable removable rugs.
Unlike fitted carpets, rugs can vary widely in their construction, backing and fibre composition.
Here are our indicative rug cleaning prices:
| Rug Size | Estimated Cleaning Price |
|---|---|
| Small Rug | €25–€30 |
| Medium Rug | €40–€50 |
| Large Rug | €60–€70 |
Small Rug Cleaning — €25–€30
Small rugs are often found beside beds, in hallways or in smaller living spaces.
The cleaning price depends on the rug's approximate dimensions, fibre type and condition.
Medium Rug Cleaning — €40–€50
Medium-sized rugs are commonly used in bedrooms and living rooms.
A medium rug may require more cleaning time than a small bedside rug, particularly if it has a thick pile or visible staining.
Large Rug Cleaning — €60–€70
Large rugs cover more floor area and may require additional time to inspect, clean and extract moisture.
Their construction can also influence whether our cleaning method is appropriate.
Important: Not all rugs are suitable for wet extraction cleaning. Some wool, viscose, silk, jute, delicate handmade or speciality rugs may require methods we do not offer.
We assess the material, backing and condition before confirming whether we can safely clean a rug.
Why Can Upholstery Cleaning Prices Differ?
Two items that look similar may require different amounts of work.
For example, a dining chair with a small upholstered seat is different from a fully padded chair with a fabric-covered backrest and sides.
A recliner can have seams and movable sections that need extra attention, while an ottoman may have a large upholstered surface or detailed stitching.
We consider the actual fabric surfaces, construction and condition rather than relying only on the name of the furniture.
The goal is to provide a fair quotation for the work required and explain any limitations before cleaning begins.
Can I Combine Several Items in One Booking?
Yes. You can request a combined quotation when several pieces of furniture or rugs need cleaning during the same visit.
For example, you might want to clean:
- Six upholstered dining chairs
- One recliner armchair
- An ottoman or upholstered footstool
- A removable living room rug
Booking several items together can make the visit more economical because the travel and equipment preparation are shared across the job.
Send us photos of all the items and we'll prepare a quotation for the complete booking.
Looking for Sofa or Mattress Cleaning Prices?
We also offer professional cleaning for sofas and mattresses.
Because sofas and mattresses have different sizes, materials and construction requirements, we've prepared separate guides to explain their prices in more detail.
