The Chem-Dry Process
Why Our Upholstery Clean is Different
The Problem with Traditional Upholstery Cleaning (And Why We Use Carbonation)
Traditional upholstery cleaning methods soak your furniture with gallons of water and harsh detergents, leaving cushions saturated for days and risking fabric damage. We use Hot Carbonating Extraction—the same gentle carbonation you find in sparkling water—to lift dirt and oils from deep within fabric fibers without over-wetting or damaging your furniture.
Traditional Upholstery Cleaning (The "Old" Way)
- ✗ Soaks furniture with excessive water
- ✗ Takes 24-48 hours to dry (furniture unusable)
- ✗ Uses harsh soaps and chemical detergents
- ✗ Leaves sticky residue that attracts dirt faster
- ✗ Can cause fabric shrinkage or discoloration
- ✗ Strong chemical smell lingers for days
Chem-Dry HCE (Our "White Glove" Way)
- ✓ Uses about 80% less water than traditional methods
- ✓ Dries in just 1-2 hours—use your furniture the same day
- ✓ Uses millions of carbonating bubbles to lift dirt naturally
- ✓ Leaves no dirt-attracting residue—fabrics stay cleaner longer
- ✓ No harsh chemicals—gentle on all fabrics
- ✓ Fresh, clean scent—no overpowering odors
The process used by Chem-Dry doesn't rely on harsh soaps or detergents. Instead, The Natural® uses the power of carbonation to penetrate deep into upholstery fibers, explode dirt, body oils, and allergens to the surface, and extract them away—leaving your furniture truly clean without over-wetting or damaging delicate fabrics.

Testimonials
Hear From Your Neighbors in Phoenix & Mesa
"My white couch looks like a new piece of furniture and he did a great job on the rugs and another large upholstered chair and headboard. I didn't compare prices before scheduling so I'm not sure how their pricing stacks up to others, but I feel like their services were a great value and I will call them again next time."
Jaime Jeffries, Google

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does upholstery take to dry?
Most upholstery is dry and ready to use in just 1-2 hours. Some thicker cushions or heavier fabrics may take 3-4 hours, but you'll never wait 24-48 hours like with traditional steam cleaning. Fast drying means less disruption and less disruption to your day.
What types of fabric can you clean?
We can safely clean most upholstery fabrics including microfiber, linen, cotton, polyester, velvet, and synthetic blends. Our technicians are trained to identify fabric types and adjust our process accordingly. We'll always test a hidden area first to ensure compatibility.
Is the process gentle enough for all furniture?
Absolutely. The Natural®, our primary cleaning solution, contains no soaps, harsh chemicals, or fragrances. It's gentle on all water-cleanable fabrics and your entire family—even crawling babies and curious pets. There's no need to keep anyone off the furniture after cleaning.
Can you remove stains from upholstery?
While we can't guarantee removal of every stain (some substances permanently dye fabrics), our process removes most common stains effectively. We pre-treat problem areas with specialized products and use Hot Carbonating Extraction to lift stains other cleaners leave behind.
How often should I clean my upholstery?
We recommend professional upholstery cleaning every 12-18 months for typical use. For homes with pets, children, or allergy sufferers, cleaning every 6-9 months helps maintain optimal air quality and extends the life of your furniture investment.
Do you offer a satisfaction guarantee?
Yes. If you're not completely satisfied with our upholstery cleaning, let us know within 30 days and we'll return to re-clean any areas of concern at no charge. Your satisfaction is our priority—that's the "white glove" promise.
What areas do you serve?
We proudly serve the entire Phoenix Metro area, including Mesa, Gilbert, Chandler, Scottsdale, Tempe, Queen Creek, Apache Junction, San Tan Valley, and surrounding communities. If you're in the East Valley, we've got you covered.
How much does upholstery cleaning cost?
Pricing depends on the type, size, and number of furniture pieces, as well as their condition. We provide free, no-obligation estimates and will give you a clear, honest price before we start—no hidden fees or surprises.
Why does upholstery get dirty faster after traditional cleaning?
Traditional cleaners leave soapy residue that acts like a dirt magnet—attracting new grime within days. Our Hot Carbonating Extraction uses no soaps or detergents, leaving zero residue behind. Your furniture stays cleaner longer because there's nothing left to attract dirt.
*Removes allergens from non-living sources, such as dog and cat dander and dust mite matter. Based on results from a study conducted by an independent lab using the Chem-Dry Hot Carbonating Extraction process. Figures are an average across multiple homes.
