Have You Forgotten About Cleaning This Area?
/One of the most-forgotten-about areas around the home is our window treatments. From curtains and drapery to blinds, dust and other grime gathers everywhere (including areas we may forget about). If you live in the Austin area and know anything about The Steam Team, then you’re already aware that we provide a long list of cleaning and restoration services to our valued customers. But did you know that we also offer professional drapery cleaning?
The Importance of Cleaning Your Drapes
For many homeowners, drapes are something to be used until they show signs of deterioration and dirtiness, and then thrown out and replaced. The Steam Team wants you to know that your drapery can be salvaged. Depending on various conditions in your home, physical signs of soil will start to appear on your window treatments in two to four years. A good rule of thumb is to have them professionally cleaned every two years, which could triple the life-span of your drapes, and is significantly less expensive than the cost of replacement.
The Pro Methods
There are many different materials used to make various window treatments, and most of them cannot be cleaned in your regular laundry machine or by being taken to the dry-cleaners. This is why a professional cleaning is the preferred method. The Steam Team professional technicians will begin by inspecting your drapes to determine whether to use a low moisture hot water extraction method or a dry cleaning process. They will ensure that even the most delicate fabrics are cleaned properly and safely. A quick call to The Steam Team will have all soil and stains gently lifted out of your furnishings and they will be dry within minutes.
