Upholstery can absorb odors over time, causing your furniture to emit unpleasant odors. This problem is not limited to pets; cigarette smoke, cooking, and other odors can become trapped in the upholstery's fibers. Many household products simply use fragrance to mask these odors. However, the odors will soon return, leaving the problem unresolved. Professional upholstery cleaning can help remove them from the fabric, leaving upholstered furniture smelling much fresher for a much longer period of time.
