Sofa Cleaning
For apartments and flats in Nikunja: trained cleaners, professional equipment and a clear price agreed before work starts.
Specialist work in apartments and flats comes with its own considerations: the furniture, floors, glass or fittings involved, how long the space can be out of use and how the team can bring equipment in. Dhaka Cleaners assesses these for sofa cleaning in Nikunja before quoting, so the method and timing fit your property and there are no surprises on the day.
Specialist jobs in apartments and flats depend on materials and access. Upholstery, carpets, stone floors, glass, extraction hoods and ducts each need their own method, and the team must be able to bring equipment to them without marking finishes on the way. Dhaka Cleaners checks these details for sofa cleaning in Nikunja, protects the surrounding area, tests products where needed and explains drying or curing times so you know when everything can be used again.
In apartments, sofas often sit near balcony doors or windows facing the road, so they collect more fine dust than you might expect. We clean on site in the living room, protect the floor with towels, and empty the dirty water into the nearest bathroom or balcony drain. A power socket close to the sofa is all we need.
If your flat is compact, we suggest a morning slot so the sofa can dry with the fan running before the family needs it in the evening.
Mostly apartment buildings and independent houses on residential roads, with shops and eateries on busier roads and some office use, including the DSE Tower in Nikunja 2.
Parking near the building is usually possible on residential roads, though main-road traffic can slow our arrival at peak hours. Please let your guard or caretaker know the visit time, and tell us whether the building has a lift or is a walk-up.
Dhaka Cleaners keeps the process simple. Most of the planning happens before the team arrives, which means less waiting and fewer surprises on the day.
We identify the fabric, test a hidden spot for colour fastness and point out stains that may not fully lift.
Loose dust, hair and crumbs are removed from every surface and crevice.
Spots are treated with the right agent for food, tea, oil or body soil.
A fabric-safe shampoo is worked in with a soft upholstery brush.
The extraction machine rinses the fibres and draws the dirty water back out.
The pile is brushed into place and we explain how to ventilate the room while it dries.
Fabric, velvet, leather and leatherette are each cleaned with a suitable technique and product.
Reducing dust and pet dander in the cushions can make the living room more comfortable for allergy sufferers.
Regular cleaning removes the abrasive grit that wears fabric thin over time.
No transport and no waiting for furniture to come back; everything is done on site.
Equipment: We use a portable hot-water extraction machine with an upholstery tool, a vacuum with crevice attachments, soft-bristle brushes and microfibre towels.
Starting from ৳ 400 per seat
Sofa Cleaning starts from ৳ 400 per seat, with the total depending on the quantity, material and condition involved. Heavy staining or difficult access can add time, which we explain when we quote.

Common questions about sofa cleaning for apartments and flats in Nikunja.
Yes, we work in both. When you book, mention which part and your road number so the team can plan the route and parking.
Yes. Leather and leatherette are not suitable for wet extraction, so we clean them by hand with products suited to the surface and condition genuine leather afterwards. Cracked or peeling leatherette cannot be restored by cleaning, but it can still be cleaned carefully.
Our detergents are fabric-safe and low-residue, and the extraction machine rinses them back out of the fabric. Keep children and pets off the sofa until it is dry. If anyone at home has sensitive skin or allergies, let us know and we will choose products accordingly.
Sofas can be cleaned all year, but drying takes longer when the air is humid. In the monsoon, a morning appointment, a ceiling fan and good ventilation all help. The team will give you a realistic drying estimate for your fabric on the day.
Yes. Reception sofas, fabric chairs and café seating can be cleaned on site, usually outside working or trading hours so they have time to dry. Tell us roughly how many seats there are and the type of fabric, and we will plan the visit around your opening times.
