The visit

How should I prepare?

Clear the area that needs cleaning of clutter such as toys, clothing and other objects, and move any furniture that sits underneath to leave us a clear workspace. See whether carpet cleaners move furniture.

How long does couch cleaning take?

It depends on the size of the couch; the visit takes about an hour for a typical couch, 1–2 hours for bigger pieces. See how long couch cleaning takes.

Is the cleaning process noisy?

Our professional vacuum cleaner runs at about the noise level of a regular vacuum cleaner. You can be in the next room while we work.

How long does the couch take to dry after cleaning?

It depends on the weather; on average it takes between 2 and 6 hours. See how long a couch takes to dry.

What are the four steps of a WATERFALL cleaning?

First we pre-vacuum the piece, starting from the top, to remove loose dirt and debris. Then an organic shampooing solution is worked deep into the fibres with a machine, and a high-powered steam-extraction machine removes the shampoo, the dirt and the excess moisture. Last, remaining spots are treated with a specialised stain remover and scrubbed out, followed by a professional odor treatment.

The visit

Do you use fans or air movers to dry the furniture?

No: fans and air movers can damage the material. The furniture dries on its own, fairly quickly, because humidity in LA is low; on average it takes between 2 and 6 hours.

What should I do while the furniture dries?

Leave the cushions the way the technician set them, turn them over after 2 to 4 hours, open the windows and run the air conditioning or a fan kept back from the fabric, and do not sit on the furniture or put the cushions back until everything is completely dry. The steps are on after your cleaning.

Do you apply a fabric protector after cleaning?

No: a fabric protector needs a fully dry surface, so it cannot be done well during a cleaning. Instead a special product in the clean rinse water neutralises the cleaning solution and closes the fibres, so the furniture stays clean longer.

What does WATERFALL bring to the visit?

Our own mobile machines and a drop cloth for your floor. The technician cleans the piece where it stands, and the floor and the distance from the road do not matter.

What products does WATERFALL use?

We use the best non-toxic products, safe for kids and pets: a shampoo is worked in with a machine, then steam extraction removes the shampoo and the dirt. Ask us by text if you want to know more about them.

Do you take cushions off the couch?

Yes. Cushions come off and are cleaned one by one, and the frame is cleaned on every side.

Is the price the same in every neighborhood?

Yes, anywhere in Los Angeles County: the booking-form prices are the same in every neighborhood, with no hidden fees. For a city outside the county, text us first.
