We test before we wash
Testing the product on a hidden patch is a step we treat as necessary rather than optional.
Al Rehab is a large mixed district with shops at ground level and homes above, and restaurants and stores emit cooking fumes and smoke that rise directly into the flats overhead. Sofas in Al Rehab absorb these odours fast, and curtains become heavy with food smells and smoke even when the window is closed. Both new and older sofas need specialist washing that removes odours from the fibres, not merely from the surface.
Flats directly above restaurants and bakeries smell of cooking and hot oil daily, even when the window is sealed, because fumes penetrate through cracks and gaps around doors. For the method itself, see the full sofa and upholstery cleaning page.
Ground floor shops and restaurants emit constant vapours, and warm air carries these odours directly up into the flats above. Sofas absorb these smells fast, and deep washing with suitable products is essential to remove them from the foam before they become permanent.
Cooking odours are not faint but carry oils and fine particles that cling to fibres and foam. These oils need multiple rinses, not ordinary washing, and wet extraction must be powerful to remove them from depth.
Restaurants and shops operate all day, so odours, smoke and dust enter the home constantly even after cleaning. Al Rehab sofas may need more frequent washing than purely residential districts.
Al Rehab is surrounded by busy roads on all sides, King Abdullah Road runs through its centre, and ground floor shops and restaurants emit constant fumes and odours that enter homes directly above.
Sofa fabric in Al Rehab carries oily residue and odours from cooking fumes from day one, so testing confirms that products remove these oils without damaging the weave.
Dust, soot and oils settle deep, so dry vacuuming must be very powerful and directed to remove them from the foam effectively.
Fabric washing must specialise in removing oils and odours together, and multiple rinses are essential to remove every trace of oil residue.
Cushions need focused treatment for oily odours on both faces, because fumes penetrate everywhere in the unit.
Oil residue from cooking and smoke needs different handling than organic stains, and may take longer to remove.
Wet extraction after washing must be very powerful here to remove moisture and remaining oil particles together.
Cotton, velvet, chenille and synthetics do not take the same heat or the same product.
Before any water.
An oil mark is not treated like a juice mark.
We wash with the method that suits the fabric.
The piece is left slightly damp, never wet.
We go over the pieces with you before leaving.
Mixed district: shops at street level with homes above them
Living above shops means sofas face direct cooking fumes and odours every day, which differs from purely residential quarters. Smoke, food and oil smells penetrate the fibres deeply and need specialist treatment that simple vacuuming or ordinary washing cannot achieve.
Testing the product on a hidden patch is a step we treat as necessary rather than optional.
The company employs more than forty cleaners, and we send a crew rather than an individual.
The washing and extraction machines are ours and travel with the crew.
If a piece needs reupholstering rather than washing, we say so.

The commitment is simple enough to be keepable: we do not leave until you have seen the result and given your view of it.
Al Rehab runs between Al Arbaeen Street to the east and King Abdullah Road which crosses it from the north, and these landmarks help us locate flats quickly and deliver equipment easily even when the apartment sits above multiple shops in a crowded building.
We provide these in Al Rehab too, and more than one can share a single visit.
