How do I get a quote?▾
Book your slot directly online, or send us a WhatsApp message with 2 or 3 photos: you get the exact quote within 24 hours, no commitment.
How long does it take to dry?▾
Hot-water extraction removes most of the water: allow 3 to 5 hours for a fabric sofa or armchair, 4 to 6 hours for a mattress cleaned on both sides, and up to 8 hours for a long-pile rug. We air the room at the end; avoid sitting on it while it still feels damp. In winter or in a poorly ventilated room, allow a full night. Leather can be used straight away.
How long does the service take?▾
Allow around 45 minutes for an armchair or a mattress, 1 to 1.5 hours for a 3-seat sofa, and 20 minutes per chair. A cart of two or three items is handled in half a day. The exact duration is confirmed with your quote, after the photos.
What payment methods do you accept?▾
Card, bank transfer and cash. Swiss francs are accepted in cash at a fixed rate of 1 CHF = €1.
