Upholstery cleaning in Paterson: what to know
Chairs, ottomans and headboards are smaller jobs than a sofa, yet they ask for the same care. About a quarter of Paterson homes belong to buildings with five units or more, and many of the rest are apartments inside two and three family houses, so we plan to work in whatever space the room gives us. Each piece is checked on its own. The tag under a chair seat or behind a headboard carries the cleaning code, and a small test in a hidden corner shows how the color and the nap respond. If a fabric is likely to shrink, ring or lose its sheen with water, we use a drier method or advise against cleaning it. It helps if you tip one dining chair over and read us what the tag says, and tell us how many chairs match it.
A cleaning visit in Paterson
In a Paterson two or three family house, the way in is usually a shared front door and one staircase that serves every floor. Tell us which floor is yours and if the stairs turn or narrow, and let the other floors know the hall will be in use while we work. Parking is on the street on many blocks, so mention a driveway or a space behind the house if we may use one. Drying takes a few hours in most rooms. Two windows on different sides of an apartment, each opened a little, move more air than one window opened wide.

Upholstery cleaning in Paterson: questions, answered
Can you clean the hall and stair carpet in a two family house in Paterson?
Yes. Shared stairs and halls soil faster than any room, and Paterson has a great many of them, since two and three family houses hold more than half of the city's homes. Count the steps and the landings for the quote, and arrange for everyone in the house to keep off the stairs until they dry.
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.
