Short answer

Dry cleaning your sofa can help remove urine stains and odors from the surface of the fabric and deeper fibers.

The best option for removing odor.

Old stain

The result depends on the depth of penetration.

Repeated urination

Additional processing may be required.

Animal or human urine

Regardless of the source of the urine, the result will be similar

Urine smell on a sofa is usually not just a surface stain. The liquid can soak into the fabric, seams, foam or filling.

01
Liquid seeps into the filling

Urine often doesn't just stay on the surface of the fabric. It can get into the foam or deeper layers of the sofa, where the source of the odor remains even after it dries.

02
The smell returns after drying.

While the sofa is damp, the smell may seem less. Once the fabric dries completely, deeper-seated contamination may start to smell again.

03
Old and repeated stains are more difficult

If the same spot has been wetted several times or the stain has been sitting for a long time, professional cleaning can significantly improve the situation, but the result should be evaluated with caution.

WHY ACT FAST

The smell of urine on the couch usually doesn't go away on its own.

Professional sofa cleaning helps to rinse dirt from fabric fibers and reduce the source of odor. If you also need to mattress cleaning, upholstered furniture cleaning or other jobs, they can be scheduled together.
