Upholstery cleaning in Passaic: what to know

Floor space is the thing in short supply when upholstered furniture is cleaned in Passaic, where only about one in five homes is a single family house and most of the others are apartments. A little planning solves that. If you want dining chairs done, bring them into the biggest room and line them up, and we will clean them one after another and set them to dry with space between. Armchairs, ottomans and headboards are cleaned where they are. For every piece we find the cleaning code, test the fabric out of sight, and tell you if it is one that water could shrink, mark or flatten. Padded headboards deserve a mention when you call, because the top edge collects hair oil and often needs more work than its size suggests. Give us the count and the fabrics and the quote follows from that.

A cleaning visit in Passaic

Most homes in Passaic are apartments in older buildings, so a few plain questions shape the visit. We ask how many flights lead to your door, if the building has an elevator, and if a superintendent or a landlord has to let us in. Parking near the entrance is the other thing to settle early: if the building has a lot or a driveway, ask if we may use it. Once the cleaning is done, keep air moving. An apartment with windows on one side only dries more slowly, so set a fan in the doorway and let it run for the few hours that drying usually takes.

How an upholstery cleaning visit goes

  1. We check each fabric

    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 Passaic: questions, answered

Do you clean in walk up apartment buildings in Passaic?

Yes. A walk up is no obstacle, and in Passaic it is the common case: Census figures show that 81 percent of homes in the city share a building with at least one other home. Let us know the floor and the number of flights, and tell your landlord or super if the building asks for notice.

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.
