Upholstery cleaning in Hoboken: what to know
Dining chairs, armchairs, ottomans and headboards are cleaned piece by piece. In Hoboken, where only 4 percent of homes are single family houses, that means working in the room the furniture lives in, with little space to spread out. Each fabric is checked for its cleaning code and tested in a hidden place before we begin. Velvet, linen and other delicate covers get the gentlest method that will clean them, and we tell you when a fabric should not be wet cleaned at all. Count the pieces before you call. Six dining chairs are quoted differently from one large armchair, and knowing the fabric tells us which tools to bring up the stairs.
A cleaning visit in Hoboken
Tell us the floor and the way in when you ask for a quote. In a walk up we carry hoses and tools by the stairs, so the number of flights matters. In an elevator building the front desk or the super may want notice, and some buildings set hours for outside work. Street parking is tight on most blocks, so a spot near the door or a loading zone saves time. After the cleaning, open a window or run the air for a few hours while the carpet or the fabric dries.

Upholstery cleaning in Hoboken: questions, answered
Do you clean carpets and sofas in Hoboken apartment buildings?
Yes. Apartments are the rule here: Census figures put 96 percent of Hoboken homes in buildings with two or more units. Tell us the floor, say if there is an elevator and where we can park, and ask your building if it wants notice before outside work.
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.
