Upholstery cleaning in Paramus: what to know

Upholstered pieces are quoted one by one, so the count you give us is where the quote starts. Paramus has about 8,800 homes, most of them houses, where the pieces may be spread over several rooms, so walk through with a pencil before you call. At the dining table, count the side chairs and the armchairs separately, and note if the backs are covered in fabric on one face or on both. Add the ottomans, the bedroom chairs and each headboard, with the size of its bed. Every upholstered piece should have a tag with a cleaning code, and we look at each fabric, its condition and its spots before choosing a method, hot water extraction or low moisture. Before work on a piece starts, you hear what the cleaning is expected to do for it and what lies beyond it.

A cleaning visit in Paramus

A Paramus visit usually begins at a house, most often in its driveway. Keep the driveway free for us, and say which door is nearest the work: the front, the side or the one through the garage. Inside, we walk the rooms with you before starting, look at the material and its condition, and hear which spots matter to you. Drying is your part. Most carpet and fabric dries in a few hours, faster or slower with the material, the weather and the airflow. If the house has forced air heat or central air, set the fan to run continuously, and open windows when the day is dry.

How an upholstery cleaning visit goes

    The cleaning code and a test in a hidden place, piece by piece.

  2. We vacuum and treat

    Dry soil first, then the seat fronts, arms and marks that need treatment.

  3. We clean

    Hot water extraction or a low moisture method, with the moisture the fabric allows.

  4. We leave it to dry

    Pieces are spaced so air can move around them. Fabric is usually dry within a few hours.

Upholstery cleaning in Paramus: questions, answered

How long does carpet take to dry in a Paramus house?

Usually a few hours. The carpet's material, the weather and the airflow set the time, and wool is slower than nylon. In a house you control the third of those: run the fan of the heating or cooling system, open windows on a dry day, and keep the doors between rooms open so air can travel.

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.
