What does couch cleaning cost in Coquitlam? Prices by seat
Couches in the Tri-Cities come in two sizes: condo-sized and family-room-sized. A loveseat in a Suter Brook or Coquitlam Centre tower is a quick job. A big sectional in a Burke Mountain or Westwood Plateau media room, the one the whole family and the dog pile onto for movie night, is a different job. Then there are the townhouses in Port Coquitlam and the older houses in Maillardville and Austin Heights, where a set of fabric dining chairs often needs doing too. The price works the same way for all of them. Here’s how it’s counted and what common Coquitlam setups come to.
How couch cleaning is priced
Upholstery is priced by the seat, from a published price list. These are list prices before the current promo, plus GST.
| What | Price |
|---|---|
| Sofa or sectional | $90 per seat |
| Armchair | $90 |
| Ottoman | $65 to $90 by size |
| Dining chair, seat and back | $30 |
| Dining chair, seat only | $20 |
| Ultra Protection (fabric protector) | $30 a seat, $10 a dining chair |
Count how many people the couch seats, not how many cushions it has. A loveseat is about 2, a regular couch about 3, and a big sectional 4, 5 or more, with the chaise counting as one. The minimum for a visit is $210, which covers up to 3 seats or areas, and one item on its own is $150. The promo comes off jobs above that minimum.
What Coquitlam setups usually cost
Worked examples from the price list, before the promo and GST:
| Setup | What’s cleaned | List price |
|---|---|---|
| Suter Brook condo | Loveseat, 2 seats | $210 (minimum) |
| Coquitlam Centre tower | 3-seat sofa and an armchair | $360 |
| Port Coquitlam townhouse | 3-seat sofa and 6 dining chairs, seat and back | $450 |
| Westwood Plateau family house | 5-seat sectional with chaise and an armchair | $540 |
| Burke Mountain media room | 7-seat sectional and a large ottoman | $720 |
If a loveseat or a three-seater is all you need, you’re already paying the $210 minimum, so adding a carpeted bedroom or an armchair to the same visit costs nothing extra. On the bigger jobs, the promo comes off the whole list price.
Big sectionals in newer family homes
A lot of the newer houses on Burke Mountain and Westwood Plateau were built with a family room or media room sized for a big modular sectional. Two things are worth knowing before you book one.
Count it seat by seat. Corner pieces usually count as a seat, and so does the chaise. A sectional that “seats the whole family” is often 6 or 7 seats once you count.
Very large or unusual pieces get a second look. If your sectional has more than 8 seats, or it’s a custom or unusual piece, send photos when you book and Rob confirms the price before it stands.
Light-coloured fabrics are popular in newer homes, and they show every spill. That’s where Ultra Protection earns its $30 a seat: spills bead up long enough to blot instead of soaking straight in.
Dining chairs in Port Coquitlam and Maillardville
Older houses and townhouses often have a set of fabric dining chairs that see daily meals and the odd spilled juice box. They’re easy to forget and quick to add: $30 a chair with a padded back, or $20 if only the seat is padded. Six chairs with backs add $180, which on its own would almost cover the minimum, so they pair well with a couch or carpet clean.
What every clean includes
- A fabric check. Send photos of the piece and its fabric tag when you book. If there’s no tag or the fibre is unknown, you sign a short waiver.
- A hidden-spot test on the day before anything gets wet.
- Pre-treatment on the arms, headrests and seat cushions, where body oils and grime build up.
- An enzyme treatment for pet stains, and plant-based, pet-safe solutions.
- The right method for the fibre: low-moisture cleaning for delicate fabrics, and hot water extraction for durable synthetics and microfibre.
- A walkthrough before we leave. If something isn’t right, we fix it, or you get your money back.
Towers in Port Moody and Coquitlam Centre
Some towers don’t allow a hose through the lobby. In those buildings we bring a high-powered portable unit instead, so the clean is the same. Book the elevator or loading bay if your strata asks for it, and tell us about visitor parking when you book.
How long until you can sit on it
Most upholstery is dry in about 3 to 6 hours. Open a window, run a fan or turn the heat up a little and it goes faster. Keep pets off until the fabric is dry to the touch.
