Upholstery cleaning in Cranford: what to know
Upholstered pieces are cleaned one at a time and quoted the same way. In Cranford, where single family houses and two to four unit houses account for 85 percent of homes, that often means going room to room: dining chairs in one, an armchair in another, a headboard upstairs. Each piece has its own tag with a cleaning code, and the code plus the condition of the fabric decides how it is cleaned. A recliner deserves a minute of your time before the visit. Open it all the way and look into the folds beside the footrest, where crumbs and old spills hide, and tell us what you find. Leave it open after the cleaning too, so the folds dry as fast as the flat parts. For the quote, list the pieces by room and name each fabric you know.
A cleaning visit in Cranford
Tell us the route before we come: where a work vehicle can stand, which door to use and what stairs wait inside. At a Cranford house that usually takes one sentence, and an open driveway is the main thing. In an apartment building, such as those near the downtown train station, add the floor and ask the management office about notice. The visit begins with a walk through the rooms, where we check each material and the state it is in and say what cleaning can and cannot do. Plan for a few hours of drying afterward. Dry, moving air shortens the wait, and a humid day lengthens it.

Upholstery cleaning in Cranford: questions, answered
Can old stains be cleaned out of the carpet in my Cranford house?
Some can and some cannot. The kind of stain, its age and whatever was used on it decide the outcome, and pet urine that soaked through to the pad long ago is the usual one that stays. Each stain in your Cranford home is looked at first, and we give you our view of it before any cleaning starts.
Can you clean velvet without crushing the pile?
Usually, with care. We test first and use the gentlest method that will clean it, most often low moisture, then groom the pile in one direction while it dries. Some velvets should not be wet cleaned, and we say so.
Do you clean seating for offices, halls and houses of worship?
Yes. Rows of upholstered chairs are cleaned seat and back, row by row. Tell us how many chairs there are and when the room is free, and we plan the visit for an hour that suits you, nights and weekends included.
How long does upholstery take to dry?
Usually a few hours. Thin seat fabric dries faster than a thick cushion. Air moving through the room helps more than heat.
What does the cleaning code on the tag mean?
It says what the fabric can be cleaned with. W is water based cleaning, S is solvent only, WS is either and X is vacuuming only. We read it before we choose a method.
