Monster Cleaning charges £57 for sofa cleaning in Merton on a fabric two-seater, and every visit has a £67 minimum, so a two-seater booked on its own comes to £67. Our upholstery cleaning in Merton is for fabric only, and a cleaned sofa needs 12 to 24 hours to dry. The same London teams work right across the borough, from Wimbledon and Raynes Park to Mitcham.
Last updated November 2026.
To book, pick “Upholstery” in the form at the top of this page and add each piece; the total updates as you go. Parking controls in Merton range from one weekday hour in part of Raynes Park to 11pm in two Wimbledon town centre zones, so say where a van can stop.
Who comes to your home
Our London teams clean sofas and carpets with the same machines, so a rug or a flight of stairs can join the sofa on one visit. Bookings are handled by our office at 75 Shakespeare Avenue, Feltham. Before working on their own, technicians are interviewed in person, insured and trained on our 57-point checklist. Each one arrives with the machine and the products.

Drying time
Plan on 12 to 24 hours before anyone sits on a cleaned fabric sofa. Feather-filled and very deep cushions are the slowest. A morning slot gives it the whole day, and an open window helps.
The fabric check
Reading the care label
- W Water-based clean
- WS Water or solvent
- S Solvent only: checked on the day
- X Vacuum only
We do not clean real or faux leather or a sofa that mixes leather with fabric; call a leather specialist. Horsehair and hessian antiques are left alone too.
For fabric, the care label leads. W means water-based cleaning is fine, WS means either method and X means a vacuum only. An S label means solvent only, and our clean uses water, so the technician checks an S piece on the day and tells you, before anything starts, whether it can be cleaned. Our care-label symbol guide decodes other tags.
After a colour test on a hidden patch and a full vacuum, a pre-spray suited to the fibre and mark sits for about ten minutes. Hot water extraction follows (what people call steam cleaning), with extra passes on arms and headrests. Our upholstery cleaning page covers every stage.
Wimbledon
Near the town centre many homes are flats: around Wimbledon Hill, half of all households lived in a purpose-built block at the 2021 Census. So tell the office the floor and whether there is a lift. In a flat in a converted house without a lift, the technician carries the machine up the stairs, so say how many flights. Towards the Common the homes are mostly houses; if yours has a drive the van can use, mention it.
Zones W3 and W4 in the town centre are controlled until 11pm Monday to Saturday and on Sunday afternoons. In the Championships fortnight (29 June to 12 July in 2026) the council suspends bays and adds parking bans across Wimbledon Village, Wimbledon Park and parts of the town centre, so give your street when booking a visit in those weeks. Wimbledon Park and the Durnsford Road side reach the Wandsworth boundary; past it, see upholstery cleaning in Wandsworth.
Marks on the fabric
Every mark gets a pre-treatment, yet full removal is never promised; the technician says first which should shift, and a photo with your booking helps. Fresh coffee, tea or wine generally lifts, as do make-up, food, grease and sweat marks on arms and headrests. Old coffee or wine, ink, curry and turmeric tend to fade instead. Bleach marks stay, as the dye is gone. Where urine has got into the foam, cleaning lessens it, but new foam may be the only cure.
With a dog or cat, extraction lifts more hair and dander from the weave than a household vacuum can. Between visits, read our guide to cleaning a sofa at home.
Booking a visit
Booking takes three steps
- Your postcode and the property. The form gives the price.
- A date that suits you. Seven days a week.
- We confirm it with you by phone or WhatsApp.
0333 555 2076 · 8am to 7pm
Once the form is sent, the office phones within the hour, 8am to 7pm, to settle a date. To talk instead, ring 0333 555 2076 or WhatsApp the same number any day; email works too, at office@monstercleaning.com. Give the seat count, fabric, pets and problem marks to get a price on the call.
A few days ahead usually works; a visit today or tomorrow depends on a technician being close by. Moving or cancelling with under 48 hours’ notice costs £50. Before we arrive, clear about a metre round each piece and take any rug out from under the sofa.
Colliers Wood and Mitcham
In Colliers Wood about two in three households lived in a flat at the 2021 Census, in purpose-built blocks or converted houses, so give the floor when you book, say whether there is a lift and explain how the technician gets through the main door. In a shared house, agree the day with the others, because the sofa is out of use until it dries. Several zones here are for permit holders only, CW2, CW4 and CW5 among them.
Mitcham is generally low-rise, the Local Plan says, with terraces and semi-detached houses around the district centre. In a house, the sofa is cleaned in the room where it stands and nothing leaves the building. Zones FG2 and LS are permit-only every day of the week, so say if you live in one. Mitcham’s tram stops sit on the line to Croydon; over that boundary, see upholstery cleaning in Croydon.
Morden and Raynes Park
The council’s character study describes the St Helier estate, south of Morden’s town centre, as two-storey terraced houses set round small greens and culs-de-sac. In a cul-de-sac, tell the office where the van can turn and stop, and if your front garden is paved for a car, say whether the van may use it. The estate runs on over the Sutton boundary on the Carshalton side, covered by upholstery cleaning in Sutton. Lower Morden is mainly houses too, so mention any drive.
In the Raynes Park Census area, about half of households lived in a flat at the 2021 Census, and the area had Merton’s highest share of homes inside commercial buildings, such as flats above shops. If yours has its own street door or an entrance at the back, say so with the floor. One zone, RPC, is controlled for a single weekday hour, 11am to noon. Some West Barnes addresses say New Malden, KT3, yet sit in Merton, so give the full postcode; for the Kingston side of the line, see upholstery cleaning in Kingston.
Where the van stops
No street-parking charge is built into the form for Merton postcodes. Where free parking near you is not available, the van’s parking appears as a separate line at what it actually costs, capped at £40 for the visit, and you see that line before you confirm.
Merton’s zones keep different hours and some are permit-only. A resident in a zone can buy visitor e-permits from the council; they are virtual and checked against number plates. When you book, tell the office your zone, the floor, any lift and where a van could pull in. Other boroughs: upholstery cleaning in London.
Mattresses and curtains
A single or double mattress is £35. It is vacuumed, its sweat marks and stains are pre-treated and it gets a low-moisture clean, then needs 12 to 24 hours before anyone sleeps on it.
Curtains are priced per drop, a drop being one panel from rail to hem: £35 short, £42 long. The technician checks each curtain on the day. Before starting, you hear its price and whether it can be done where it hangs; very dirty or fragile curtains have to come down for cleaning elsewhere.
Frequently asked questions
What does a sofa clean cost in Merton?
A fabric two-seater is £57 and a three-seater £83. Each visit has a £67 minimum, so a two-seater alone is £67.
How long will the sofa take to dry?
Allow 12 to 24 hours before using it; feather and very thick cushions dry last.
Can you clean a leather sofa?
No. We only clean fabric upholstery; leather, faux leather and part-leather sofas are a job for a leather specialist.
Will stains on my sofa come out?
Each mark is pre-treated, but nobody can promise full removal. The technician points out which marks should shift before starting.
Where does the van park in Merton?
Merton postcodes carry no street-parking charge in the form. If the van has to pay to park near you, that cost is listed on its own at the real price, never over £40 a visit, and shown to you before you confirm.
Can you come to Wimbledon during the Championships?
Yes, if the van has somewhere to stop. The council suspends bays in Wimbledon Village, Wimbledon Park and parts of the town centre that fortnight, so give the office your street.
How far ahead should I book?
A few days is usually enough. Book through the form or ring or WhatsApp 0333 555 2076; moving or cancelling inside 48 hours costs £50.
Are the technicians checked and insured?
Yes. Each was interviewed in person, is insured and trained on our 57-point checklist before cleaning alone.
Can a tenant in Colliers Wood or Mitcham add the sofa to a move-out clean?
Yes. On the same visit as an end of tenancy clean, a two-seater is £51, an armchair £24 and a mattress £29.
Is there a re-clean if I am unhappy with the sofa?
Upholstery has no re-clean guarantee, which is why the technician tells you before starting which marks are likely to shift and which may only fade. The 48-hour re-clean covers end of tenancy cleans only, and even there carpets and upholstery are excluded.
