No matter when you make the call, we have technicians who can assist you.

SERVPRO Dries and Cleans Furniture 

As an interior designer with a showroom and waiting area in Clifton, it is crucial to have attractive furnishings free from stains or other visible damage. Our technicians use specialized techniques and equipment to restore your furniture while cleaning and drying the rest of your office space.

Do I Keep the Furniture on the Carpet During the Restoration Process?

No, Our Technicians Move the Furniture Before Treating it or the Carpet.

Technicians move furniture off the carpet during water cleanup in your Clifton office space. Technicians move the damaged furniture to a non-carpeted spot to work on it. This way, they can also thoroughly extract, clean, and dry the carpet while working on the furniture.

What Are Some Things That Could Happen if We Wait to Restore the Furniture?

• Swelling: If the wood framing sustains water damage, it can weaken, swell, and ultimately cause the breakdown of your furniture.
• Cosmetic Issues: Colors may bleed, or the water droplets can spot fabric. 
• Mold Growth: Damp, prolonged conditions can cause mold growth in the furniture.

What Are Some Things That SERVPRO Technicians Do to Restore Damaged Furniture?

• They treat stains on the furniture before they dry it.
• They tent the cushions by standing them up against each other to help the drying process.
• Technicians use the upholstery tool to extract excess water from sofas and chairs. 

While waiting for SERVPRO to arrive, you can dry any buttons or zippers on your furniture and cushions to prevent rust. After drying, you can place wax paper under the zippers to ensure there are no rust stains on the furniture. After our technicians arrive, they can continue the restoration process by extracting water, cleaning surfaces, and drying the furniture.
