Marine Upholstery Cleaning For Boats
If your boat cushions and other material coverings are looking worse for wear after years of use then getting a professional marine upholstery cleaner will bring them back to life. We can steam clean marine upholstery rejuvenating your old fabric and making them look new again.
Marine upholstery has to deal with a lot. Salt water, sunscreen, food spills and engine oil or grease all ends up on your cushions over the years and seriously detracts from the look and feel of your boat.
How It Works
We use unique encapsulation technology in our pre-spray conditioner that bonds to the soiling in your fabric. The cleaning solvent then separates the soiling from the fibers of the upholstery and prepares it for our powerful steam extraction process.
Our steam extraction machine uses purpose built upholstery cleaning tools that inject 98.9 steam into the fabric and immediately extracts it back out. In this instant the soiling is released from the fabric and whisked away in a powerful vacuum. Small portable machines and regular consumer vacuums simply can’t compete with the heat and power of these large truck mounted cleaners.
What We Do
There’s 2 ways to go about cleaning marine upholstery, off site or in Situ.
Off-Site: If your upholstery or marine cushions are removable, it’s generally easier and more practical to clean them off the boat. We can come pick them up, get them clean, and return them for you. Or alternatively, bring them to your home and we can meet you there instead. If you need us to pick up keys and access marina’s for you, we can also arrange this.
In Situ: If you own a larger boat with interior carpets, large numbers of cushions or seating that is permanent, then we can come aboard and take care of the job right there. If your birth is a long way down the doc it may be necessary to get a bit closer to land and our vehicle. We love boats and will respect your investment the same way you do. We’ll take care to use bumpers, towels and padding to avoid rub marks and scratching. We have the tools and experience required to clean your upholstery and leave no damage.
Why You Can Trust KLEVER With Your Boat
It's easy to sometimes get used to the wear and tear and slow but steady build up of food marks, dirt, and other grime on boat’s, chairs and soft furnishings.

Professional Carpet Care FAQ
What Cleaning Method Is Best ?
Carpet manufacturers recommend steam cleaning or the "hot water extraction" method of carpet cleaning. It uses water that’s 98.9 degrees Celsius. This heat is how we break apart dirt and grease from the carpet fiber to be extracted with our powerful vacuum.
Truck-mounted machines are the only machines with the power to reach deep into the carpet pile and extract maximum dirt and whisk away left over moisture. This leaves your carpet cleaner and dryer than little portable machines.
How Long Does Carpet Cleaning Take ?
There are several different factors that determine how long the job will take. Weather, wind, and the skills of the carpet cleaner’s doing the job will all make a real difference.
Carpet cleaning for most homes takes around 2 hours. Dirtier carpet or large homes usually take longer. Most carpet dries within 4-6 hours. Old carpet, wool and thick pile carpet can take up to 8 hours.
Wet or cold weather generally increases drying times of your carpet by only 25%.
What's The Cost Of Carpet Cleaning ?
The cost of carpet cleaning in Auckland can vary greatly. The most important factor in carpet cleaning prices is the quality of the service you choose. "Cheap" carpet cleaner companies use low powered portable machines with warm water and weak suction. The best carpet cleaners use bigger and more powerful truck-mounted machines with water close to 100 degrees.
Klever use all-inclusive and transparent flat-rate pricing. Meaning if you have a 4 bed house, you'll pay the same as someone else who has a 4 bed house. On the day, our technician will examine your carpet and quote for serious stains before commencing work.
In case you're wondering, Klever's carpet cleaning prices start at $199.
Can I Use Vinegar & Baking Soda On Carpet ?
Every single week we get calls from home owners who have used vinegar and/or baking soda to try and fix stains on their carpet and have usually made things a lot worse in the process. The advice to do this is not coming from carpet experts, and doesn't even account for the difference between wool & synthetic carpets. Professionals can fix most stains at a reasonable price, but once you put vinegar & baking soda on it, things get a lot more difficult (if not impossible) to rectify.
Can I Trust DIY Stain Removal Advice
Much of the DIY stain removal advice online doesn't even begin with most basic of questions such as, is the stain acid or alkaline based? or is your carpet wool or synthetic? Without knowing this information with certainty BEFORE you begin, anything you do to your carpet runs the risk of making a real mess of things.
The most common issues we find with DIY disasters are big watermarks left behind by alkaline detergents, bleaching of carpet from too much product, and caked on residues that couldn't be removed without using powerful professional equipment.
Now, I love a bit of DIY as much as the next guy, but there are real risks to following the advice of untrained, non-experts posting content for views instead of insight.
Can I Steam Cleaning Pet Urine ?
Pet urine stains on carpet require specialised skills, chemicals and expertise to be removed properly. Pet urine contains Phosphorus, Uric acid, & other compounds called mercaptans that nature designed to smell strongly and stay in place for the pet to mark it's territory with. You are fighting a 10,000 years of evolution, which is often a losing battle!
Without very specific chemicals being used, standard steam cleaning of pet urine stains will likely "re-activate" the smell, making it worse. It can also lock in any visible marks, and make fixing the problem nearly impossible for the experts. Don't be "cheap" with urine issues. If someone offers to fix pet urine problems for less than $250 I would be very suspicious as to the quality of work you're about to receive.
Can Your Technicians Remove Stains ?
YES! Our carpet technicians carry a broad range of specialised chemicals for treating various types of stains. We can remove, coffee, tea, blood, urine, food, grease and more. We will work until the stain is gone. We do have to mention that some things just don't come out no matter what we try, but we can tell you if this is the case for you.
How Do I Pay ?
Payment is easy. All our vans have mobile eftpos terminals that accept all major credit cards and debit cards. Once we finish cleaning you can simply tap and pay. On occasions where your not present, payment can be made via phone or internet.
How Long Does Carpet Take To Dry ?
If the job is done PROPERLY, not as long as you think. generally speaking, synthetic carpet drys faster than wool carpet but only by 1-2 hours. Your carpet technician is trained to inject steam into your carpet twice, then extract it 4 times. These extra strokes of powerful vacuum extraction remove all excess moisture leaving your carpet barely damp. On a nice day, your carpets should be dry by night fall. During rain or in winter months drying times are about 20% longer, which is really only a few hours, so not the end of the world.
Checking Online Reviews Is A Must
All carpet cleaners are NOT created equal! If your carpet cleaner has bad or no online reviews then that should be a massive red flag. It is actually very hard to run a legitimate business in Auckland and have no online platform for people to review you. This means that it takes a deliberate effort on the part of business owners to hide the places they could be reviewed. If you hire a carpet technician that doesn't want their previous customers talking about the service they provided, you're asking for trouble, it's that simple.
The same goes for bad reviews, most customers will only leave a bad review once they have tried to resolve the problem with the business and failed. At Klever, we go above and beyond to deliver a customer experience that is consistently amazing and simply unrivalled. This is how we gained our 5 Star reputation across all review sites including Google, TradeMe, Facebook, Localist and others.
Can I get Old Stains Out Of Carpet ?
Early treatment of stains is an absolute must. If you wait weeks or months to treat difficult stain types, the chances of total success reduce more and more with each passing day. What was a simple, easy-to-fix mishap, can become a permanent feature of your lounge room carpet. The moral of the story is don't wait to get the experts in If you want your carpet to look great and last a long time.
Most clients are amazed at what can be removed from their carpet IF they call in professionals quickly. Blood, feces, urine, vomit, red wine, ink, gum, kids play doh, makeup etc. can all usually all be removed with 100% success and leave your carpets looking like nothing ever happened.
How Often Should I Get Carpets Cleaned ?
A quality modern carpet should last 15-25 years before it starts looking worn out and in need of replacement. New manufacturing standards and processes produce a strong, hard wearing product that should last a very long time.
But, there's catch! It must be properly maintained to extend it's life this far. You see, when carpet is made, it comes out a little bit acidic on the pH scale. This is what makes new carpet so fluffy, nice to walk on, and stain resistant. Unfortunately, as we live our day to day lives in the home, cooking vapors, dust, bacteria and pollens drift around and settle on the carpet. This slowly makes your carpet more and more alkaline. As the carpet becomes alkaline it loses it's softness and bounce, and becomes matted and easier to stain.
Professional carpet cleaning fixes this issue by firstly removing the contaminants causing the alkaline shift and simultaneously moving the carpet back to its more acidic state leaving it fluffy and more resistant to staining, thus extending its life and keeping it looking great for years to come.
