How much does Carpet & upholstery cleaning cost in Sydney? (2026 price guide)

Professional carpet steam cleaning typically costs $30-$50 per room or $3-$8 per square metre, meaning a standard 3-bedroom home often costs $150-$300 for all carpeted areas. Upholstery cleaning is usually priced per item, with a 3-seater sofa typically running $80-$150 and a single armchair around $40-$70.

Cost varies with fabric type, level of staining and how long stains have set, whether pet odour or allergen treatment is needed, and the total area or number of items being cleaned. Heavily soiled carpets or delicate fabrics needing special treatment can push prices higher.

Ask whether the quoted price includes pre-treatment of stains and drying time expectations, and confirm the cleaner uses hot water extraction rather than just surface shampooing for a genuinely deep clean.
