Park City Drapery Cleaning

We are careful to test drapery fabrics for compatibility before we begin the cleaning process. We clean drapes in-place using our special drapery extraction-cleaning wand. A mild detergent combined with a deodorizing agent is applied to the room side surface of the drapery, and this is followed by gentle vacuuming of each pleat.

*Certain drapery products must be removed from the room and sent out for dry cleaning.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Is Considered Drapery?

Drapery is considered to be any type of cloth curtains that hang – usually around window frames.

What Types Of Drapery Do You Clean?

Drapery comes in all sorts of fabrics: Cotton, silk, polyester, acrylic, wool – and we clean them all! However, not all fabrics can be cleaned with our traditional supplies, and some may need to be taken back to the shop with us for a professional dry cleaning.

Will Your Cleaner Damage My Drapes?

Absolutely not! We use a mild detergent combined with a deodorizing agent, and we only do the side facing the room – as to not over do it. We use a special and gentle wand that extracts via vacuum from each pleat.

Will Cleaning My Drapes Change The Color?

No. We make sure to test in a small inconspicuous area before we begin cleaning to make sure the color of your curtains are not damaged by our detergent.

Is The Process Harmful To Kids Or Pets?

No! We use eco-friendly cleaning technology with the safest products possible for our planet, pets, children and your guests.

Importance Of Getting Your Drapes Cleaned

Curtains seem to be one of those items that don’t need cleaning, simply because of how they are laid out in the house. Because they are usually against walls and around windows, you don’t think about how often you touch them, and how little you wash your hands before and after doing so.

In fact, there was a study done for the American Journal of Infection Control on how quickly bacteria and diseases piled up on curtains in hospitals. In just 3 days there was a significant increase in the amount of contamination that had appeared on the curtains just from people moving in and out of the rooms.

Now, most homes don’t usually have guests flowing in and out and placing their hands on your drapery – but its not just physical touch that causes the spread of germs. Sneezing, coughing, spills, pets and kids can contaminate your curtains every single day.

You can read the full study here.

Lets not forget about dirt, dust and other allergens! Fabric is a breeding ground for allergens that it picks up over time. If you have pets you have an even higher chance of getting dander and hair stuck to your curtains that need to be cleaned off. Guests who enter your home who are susceptible to dust, dirt and dander may have health issues unless your curtains are properly cleaned and vacuumed.

Can't I Just Clean Them Myself?

While that is an option, we guarantee color-safe, eco and family friendly cleaning processes. Many store-bought detergents are harsh and may wear down your drapes or be harmful to your four legged friends.

For many fabrics, dry cleaning is the only option. And all drapes should be cleaned with a vacuum wand to pull any excess detergent and moisture from the pleats.
