I live in the Westchase neighborhood and recently realised the fabric on our living‑room sofa was really looking worn, dull and held onto pet hair and occasional spills from our Labrador. I called Chem‑Dry of Tampa when I finally admitted the upholstery was dragging the whole room down — our other carpet cleaner had treated it once by heavy steam, and the cushions came out sodden and took ages to dry, plus the fabric looked streaky.
When the Chem‑Dry team arrived they explained how their method for upholstery uses their Green‑Certified, non‑toxic solutions, safe for kids and pets, and how their low‑moisture cleaning approach delivers fast dry times — in our case the sofa was dry in about 2‑3 hours rather than the full day we spent after the previous steam clean. They also pointed out that because they use far less water and a carbonated lift process the fabric fibers recover better and the result lasts longer‑lasting than standard steam cleaning.
Their tech took time to spot‑test the fabric and treat the areas around the dog bed and where everyday use was highest. He explained how upholstery cleaning with Chem‑Dry also helps with healthier indoor air & allergen reduction, because embedded pet dander, dust mites and spills get removed instead of simply getting rinsed and soaked. We noticed right away that the cushion surfaces felt more “alive,” the colours popped, and—best of all—the (what we thought was permanent) faint pet‑odor fade went away.
Comparing to the last time we used a generic steam‑cleaner service: that dryer looked saturated, the fabric took forever to recover and we were worried about mildew in Tampa’s humid climate. With Chem‑Dry of Tampa we didn’t have that risk — the sofa was ready for use that very night. It made a difference for our home and family life.
