How much does sofa cleaning cost in Penang?

Sofa cleaning in Penang is priced per seat: a single fabric seat costs RM 80-150, a 2+3 seater fabric set RM 250-450, and an L-shape RM 350-600. Leather sofas are quoted separately at RM 100-200 per seat because they need conditioning rather than extraction. Most cleaners set a RM 120-180 minimum job value.

How much does carpet cleaning cost per square foot in Penang?

Carpet and rug cleaning in Penang costs RM 2.50-6.00 per square foot, with a flat RM 80-120 minimum for small rugs. The rate depends on the cleaning method, fabric, and soiling level.

What drives the price of upholstery cleaning?

Three factors: fabric type (microfibre, chenille, and leather cost more than standard woven fabric), cleaning method (hot-water extraction costs more than dry encapsulation), and soiling level (set-in stains, pet odour, or mould add a 20-40% pre-treatment charge).

How often should I clean my sofa and carpets in Penang?

In Penang's coastal-tropical climate, clean sofas in daily use every 9-12 months, carpets and rugs every 6-12 months, and mattresses every 6-12 months. Homes near the coast and households with pets or young children should clean at the shorter end of each range.
