Sofa beds are magnets for crumbs, small items, coins, dust, and other debris. Just like any other sofa where regular cleaning is required, the same goes for a sofa bed. It is even more needed for sofa beds as they hold dual functions – a sofa for hosting and a bed for sleeping. This means that it will attract more dust, dirt, and bacteria.

One of the easiest ways to keep your sofa bed clean would be to vacuum it regularly. Vacuuming helps to ensure that the dust or food crumbs collected on your sofa are removed. This helps keep your sofa bed clean and keeps you and your guests feeling comfortable being on them. If there is bigger debris on your sofa, you can remove it with a clean and soft brush before vacuuming them.

When stains get on your sofa bed, remove them immediately. The deal with stains is that, the longer you let them stay on your sofa bed, the harder it will be to remove them down the road. Spilled drinks, food, and ink spills can cause challenging stains on sofa upholstery. You can soak up any spilled liquids immediately by blotting them with a clean, dry cloth.
Engage professional cleaner
Professionally cleaning your sofa bed also means you are deep cleaning it. As upholstery gathers a lot of dust, dead skin flakes, and dust mites, it is important it goes through deep cleaning on a regular basis to maintain its hygiene. You do not want to be sleeping on a dirty sofa especially if you are sensitive to dust and dirt. Sleeping on a dirty sofa can also cause the allergen trapped on it to trigger illnesses such as influenza and cough.
Deep cleaning of your sofa bed also ensures that it will last longer. To deep clean, you’ll need to use an effective and strong vacuum cleaner that comes with a HEPA filter and we offer exactly that.
These are the steps we take to deep clean your sofa bed:
1. Breakdown dirt particles
Our cleaning system will produce strong vibrations to loosen and break down embedded dirt within the thick mattress into fine particles.
2. Extract embedded dirt
Pulverized dirt particles will simultaneously be extracted into the cleaning system’s HEPA filter bag. This process thoroughly removes embedded stubborn mattress dirt particles deep within the mattress.
3. Disinfection
In-built medical grade UV-C light will be applied safely to eliminate germs, bacteria, and other microorganisms.
4. Double protection
A specially formulated antibacterial solution will be applied to prevent the spread of bacteria and viruses, as well as delay the reoccurrence of dust mites and allergies.
We also offer sofa bed stain removal services which is usually recommended after a deep cleaning service. Stains can be difficult to treat on sofa beds. De Hygienique uses safe and effective upholstery stain removal solutions to remove stains effectively.
How often should you clean your sofa bed?
You should minimally vacuum your sofa once a week and professionally clean it once every 6 months. If you own a sofa bed and you have not professionally cleaned it in the last 6 months, think about all the dust, dirt, and allergen that are sitting on it today.
