Five new wards: where we clean sofas in Binh Thanh
After two rounds of reorganisation — the first from 1 January 2025, which left the district with 15 wards, and the second from 1 July 2025 under Resolution 1685/NQ-UBTVQH15 — the former Binh Thanh District is now five wards. The names are the easiest thing to mix up: today's "Binh Thanh ward" covers only the old Wards 12, 14 and 26. An apartment in Vinhomes Central Park or Landmark 81 is now addressed to Thanh My Tay ward.
We have regular sofa-cleaning slots in Thanh My Tay. The other four wards are also covered, with the time slot confirmed with you when you book.

High-rise living in Thanh My Tay: what wears a sofa down
Dien Bien Phu and Nguyen Huu Canh are lined with one of the densest clusters of towers in the city, led by the 461.3 m Landmark 81. In high-floor apartments, living rooms usually have wide glass walls and air-conditioning running almost all day. Cool, dry air gradually takes the suppleness out of leather, while afternoon sun through the glass fades the fabric on the window side faster than the rest. Then, when a family is away and the air-conditioning is off for days in the rainy season, the cushion foam soaks up moisture.
Larger apartments here often have large sofas too: U-shaped corner sofas, modular sofas made of several pieces, and a second set in the family room. With a helper, small children, pets or frequent guests, the sofa is in constant use, and small marks pile up week after week.
- Backrests and the window-side edge paler than the shaded parts.
- Leather in air-conditioned rooms feeling dry and stiff, with creases where people sit.
- Modular pieces no longer matching in colour because they are used unevenly.
- Food, children's crayon and pet hair caught in the joins between modules.
- A damp smell when you come home from a long trip in the rainy season.

Modular, leather and premium fabric: how your Up specialist cleans each
Every sofa is checked for its label and stitching, and the solution is tested on a hidden spot before we begin. Townhouses around Ba Chieu and the garden homes of Thanh Da get the same care — ground-floor sofas facing the street pick up road dust, and fabrics in homes by the water take longer to dry in the rainy season, so we suggest a dry, sunny day there. The method depends on the material and construction:
- Fabric and microfibre
- Thorough vacuuming underneath and in the cushion gaps and joins; spot treatment of stains; spray extraction that lifts dirty water straight into the machine; pile brushed back into line. Usually dry in 4–6 hours in an air-conditioned room.
- Modular sofas
- Each piece is cleaned evenly so the colour matches when they are put back together; the number of seats charged is confirmed from photos before booking.
- Leather
- Never washed with water; cleaned with a dedicated leather solution, paying attention to seams and creases, then conditioned to soften it again. Ready to use after about 30 minutes.
- Velvet and suede
- We need close-up photos of the material and the care label; we confirm a method and price only once we are certain.
- Traditional upholstered wooden sets
- Common in Ba Chieu townhouses: the cushions are cleaned according to their fabric, and the carved frame is dusted gently to keep its finish.
- Ottomans and loose cushions
- 50,000 VND each, done in the same visit.

High-rise logistics: contractor registration, lifts and drying time
Most apartment developments in Thanh My Tay have a management office and a contractor registration process; residents usually need to give the contractor's name and time slot in advance, and equipment goes up in the goods lift. As soon as your booking is confirmed, we send your specialist's name and photo for you to pass on to reception.
In very tall towers, getting from the lobby or basement to your floor can take a while at peak lift times. If your specialist arrives on time but has to wait for lobby formalities, that time doesn't count as lateness.
- Tell us the tower, block, floor and unit number when booking.
- Check with building management about permitted working hours and contractor parking.
- Clear items off the sofa and leave a power socket free near the living room.
- Afterwards, keep the air-conditioning or a fan running and avoid sitting on fabric until it is fully dry.
- Not at home? Your family or helper can let your specialist in, and you follow the results through your Up Report on WhatsApp or Zalo.
