Overview
This page prices upholstery cleaning for Earlsfield SW18 specifically: mainly Victorian stock, 32% privately rented and 7,243 households in total. Work starts at £65, fixed in writing, with parking and London Borough of Wandsworth permit rules costed before an insured fitter travels.
How it works
Step 1
A hidden seam is tested for colour-fastness and shrinkage before the machine is switched on.
Step 2
Deep vacuum with an upholstery tool — most of what is in a London sofa is dry grit.
Step 3
Grease, food and body oils are treated individually and given dwell time.
Step 4
Hot-water extraction at controlled moisture, or a low-moisture pass on delicate fabrics.
Step 5
Pile groomed straight and air movers left running so nobody sits on a damp cushion.
Why choose us
We expect with metal stud partitions between rooms — and dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork — the pattern behind 7,243 households inside the SW18 neighbourhood in SW18, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is in SW18, short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs — with 16% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first.
£5m public liability, WoolSafe-approved chemistry on natural fibres and COSHH sheets on the van for everything else.
One technician with a portable extraction machine — the standard kit for London flats, where a truck-mount hose cannot reach a fourth floor. Narrow terraced streets, permit bays and railway-bridge height limits.
Next-day availability in most postcodes; end-of-tenancy jobs prioritised around check-out dates. Earlsfield (South Western) is the nearest station, so a SW18 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Fixed prices
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Two-seat sofa | £65 | 45–60 min | Hot-water extraction with a hand tool, both faces of every cushion, plus the frame and skirt. |
| Three-seat sofa | £85 | 60–90 min | More surface and usually more soiling at the arms and headrest, where hair products and hands land. |
| Corner or L-shape sofa | £130 | 2 hrs | Priced per seat rather than per item, because a five-seat corner is genuinely two sofas' worth of fabric. |
| Armchair or dining chair (each) | £25 | 15–25 min | Booked alongside a sofa; on their own they are quoted against the £65 minimum visit. |
| Mattress clean and sanitise, double | £55 | 40 min | Extraction plus a dust-mite treatment, which is the reason most London flats book it at all. |

Scope
I recently used Hello Services for a full carpet clean throughout my home, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From the moment I contacted them, their communication was clear, friendly, and professional. They arrived on time, fully equipped, and explained the entire process before starting.

The team was very kind and respectful the whole cleaning and they did a wonderful job! They called and asked if they could come earlier because they finished their first job early, which was a nice surprise. When they arrived, they asked good questions and set expectations on what they were planning to clean. My… Read in full →
