Upholstery cleaning in New Brunswick: what to know

Upholstered pieces are cleaned singly, each according to its own fabric: an armchair, a desk chair with a cloth seat, dining chairs, an ottoman, a headboard. In New Brunswick, where one home in five has been built since 2000 and 26 percent before 1940, the rooms differ a great deal and the routine does not. We find the tag, read the cleaning code and look at the wear, and you hear what cleaning can do for that piece. A piece that came to you second hand needs a closer look from you first. Check under the cushions and along the back for old stains, and tell us what you find. A stain whose age and cause nobody knows is the kind least likely to come out in full, and you should know that going in. Then count the pieces and tell us which rooms they are in.

A cleaning visit in New Brunswick

In New Brunswick the way in changes from block to block. A rented house may be divided into apartments behind one shared door, and a downtown tower has a desk and an elevator. Tell us which you have, the floor, and the flights to climb without an elevator. Say where a work vehicle can stand, since some streets have meters or permit rules, and ask a tower's management about scheduling outside work. We walk the rooms with you first and say what cleaning should do. Afterward let air through, since drying, usually a few hours, takes longer in a closed room.

Upholstery cleaning in New Brunswick: questions, answered

Do you clean rented apartments and houses in New Brunswick?

Yes. Rented homes are 79 percent of the occupied homes in New Brunswick, and we clean in them as we do in owned ones. Ask your landlord first if the carpet is theirs and if the lease calls for a particular cleaning, then tell us the rooms, the floor and the way in.

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.
