Upholstery cleaning in Edison: what to know

Upholstered pieces are quoted and cleaned one at a time: a dining chair seat, a recliner, an ottoman, a padded headboard. In Edison, renters live in 39 percent of occupied homes and owners in the rest, and the work is the same for both, done in the room with the furniture left where it is. Every fabric is checked for the cleaning code on its tag and tried in a spot that does not show, because two chairs that look alike can be covered in very different cloth. Some covers, such as certain velvets and silks, should not be wet cleaned, and we will say so plainly. Before you call, walk through the house and write down each piece and its fabric if the tag names it. A list like that makes the quote quick and accurate.

A cleaning visit in Edison

Most visits in Edison begin in a driveway. At a single family house we park close to the door and need a clear path to the rooms being cleaned. In a garden apartment or a condominium complex, tell us the building number, the floor and where visitors may park, because the nearest space can be a long walk from the entrance. An upstairs unit reached by an outside stair is no trouble if we know in advance. Afterward, carpet and fabric usually dry within a few hours. Switch on the ceiling fans or the fan of your heating system, and expect a humid day to slow things down.

Upholstery cleaning in Edison: questions, answered

Do you clean carpet in garden apartments and condos in Edison?

Yes. Census figures place about 30 percent of Edison homes in buildings that hold five or more units each, and we work in those just as we do in houses. Give us the building and unit number, the floor and the visitor parking rules, and check if your management office wants to hear about outside contractors beforehand.

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.
