Upholstery cleaning in Elizabeth: what to know
Upholstered furniture in Elizabeth is cleaned in the room where it is used. Only one in five homes here is a single family house, and the rest share walls or floors with neighbors. Chairs, dining chairs, ottomans and headboards are each looked at on their own. Turn a dining chair over and you will usually find the tag stapled under the seat. The cleaning code printed there tells us if water is safe for the fabric. It helps to look at each piece in daylight before you call. Note the faded panels, the worn patches and any open seams. Cleaning takes out soil. It does not bring back color the sun has taken or close a seam, and it is better that we both know where those places are before the work starts. Then tell us how many pieces there are and what covers them.
A cleaning visit in Elizabeth
A two family house has its own logistics. Tell us if you live on the first floor or the second, if the stairs to your door are inside or outside, and if the driveway is yours to use, because the closer a work vehicle stands to the entrance, the shorter the hose run. Near Broad Street, the main street of midtown Elizabeth, curb space can be scarce in business hours, so point us to a lot or a loading area if there is one. Elevator buildings may ask for notice. Afterward, air the rooms. Drying takes a few hours as a rule, and a humid day adds to it.

Upholstery cleaning in Elizabeth: questions, answered
Do you clean stair carpet in two family houses in Elizabeth?
Yes. Carpet on stairs, landings and halls is part of what we clean. Elizabeth has many such stairs, since 47 percent of its homes are in two to four unit houses. Count the steps and tell us if the stair is yours alone or shared with the other household.
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.
