Cleaning: Is It Worth It?
/Home ownership is certainly not easy for everyone and it comes with a lot of cleaning and upkeep that you won’t always be in the mood for. There are some areas of the home that many homeowners skip cleaning altogether- one of the most common among these is drapery. So that begs the question, should you bother to clean your drapery at all? And if you don’t, what are the consequences?
Why Clean Drapery?
When it comes to drapes, a common practice is to just throw them out when they show signs of deterioration or excessive dirt buildup, which is usually every two to four years. But what many homeowners don’t know is that the cost to have drapes cleaned is actually much less than the cost of replacing the drapes altogether! If you have your drapes professionally cleaned every two years or so, you could triple their lifespan and save lots of money over time on the replacement costs!
Drapery Cleaning Professionals
There’s a reason we suggest professional drapery cleaning rather than cleaning the drapes yourself, that’s because most drapes can’t be washed in a regular laundry machine, they need special treatment from professional equipment for a proper clean. When you call in The Steam Team, our technicians will come prepared with the right equipment to handle even the most delicate of fabrics. Our professionals will use either a dry cleaning process or our low moisture hot water extraction method, depending on the type of fabric you have.
