Pet Hair Removal in the Research Triangle
Pet hair removal is an add-on service that lifts hair embedded deep in sofa, sectional, and chair fabric during your upholstery cleaning appointment, for $15 per seat. Cats and dogs shed hair that works into the weave of fabric, especially textured or looped upholstery a household vacuum can't reach. RTP Upholstery's lead technician Andrew combines targeted extraction tools with the same hot water cleaning process used on your furniture, pulling out hair, dander, and trapped odors in one visit instead of two. The add-on pairs with sofa cleaning ($125-$180), sectional cleaning ($180-$260), or chair cleaning ($40-$70) for homes from Morrisville to Raleigh, Cary, Apex, and across the Triangle. Final cost depends on fabric type, furniture size, and how much hair has built up. Call or text (919) 804-1383 for a free quote.

What's Included
- Inspection: the technician checks the fabric type and how much pet hair is embedded before starting.
- Dry pre-treatment: rubber tools and stiff-bristle brushes loosen hair worked into the weave, the kind a household vacuum leaves behind.
- Hot water extraction: the same deep-cleaning pass used on the rest of the piece flushes loosened hair, dander, and dirt out of the fabric.
- Rinse and extraction: remaining cleaning solution and debris get pulled back out of the fibers so nothing is left sitting in the fabric.
- Drying: the furniture air-dries afterward. Drying time depends on fabric type and humidity; the Super Fast Drying add-on ($20/seat) is available if you need it back in use sooner.

How much does pet hair removal cost?
Pet hair removal is $15 per seat, added on top of your sofa, sectional, or chair cleaning. A sofa cleaning alone runs $125 to $180 before add-ons, so your total depends on the piece of furniture and how many seats it has. Call or text (919) 804-1383 for a free custom quote.
Can I book pet hair removal without a full upholstery cleaning?
No. Pet hair removal is an add-on applied during a sofa, sectional, or chair cleaning appointment, not a stand-alone visit. It's built into the same hot water extraction pass used to clean the rest of the piece.
Will pet hair removal also get rid of pet odor and stains?
The upholstery cleaning it's added to already targets built-up dirt, allergens, and odors as part of the standard process. For set-in stains like accidents or drool marks, add Heavy Stain Treatment ($20+) to the same appointment for targeted spot treatment.
Do I need to vacuum before you arrive?
A quick vacuum beforehand can clear loose surface hair, but it's not required. Pet hair removal is aimed at hair that's already worked into the weave of the fabric, which is what a household vacuum typically misses.
What areas do you provide pet hair removal in?
RTP Upholstery serves Morrisville and the surrounding Triangle, including Apex, Cary, Holly Springs, Raleigh, Wake Forest, Fuquay-Varina, and the Hope Valley/Southpoint area of Durham. Call or text (919) 804-1383 to check availability for your address.
