The Significance of Regular Cleaning


Regular curtain cleaning removes accumulated dust, allergens, and odors that collect in fabric fibers. Most homeowners don't realize draperies should be cleaned every 1-2 years depending on environmental factors like smoking, pets, or cooking habits.


Dirty window treatments can trigger allergic reactions and respiratory issues. Dust mites thrive in rarely-cleaned fabrics, creating health concerns for sensitive individuals.


Beyond health benefits, regular cleaning preserves your investment. Professional cleaning costs between $75-$150 per drape set—far less than replacement costs for premium window treatments.


Proper maintenance also maintains color vibrancy and fabric integrity. Sunlight exposure gradually fades fabrics, but clean fibers resist UV damage better than soiled ones.


We specialize in revitalizing all fabric types, from delicate sheers to heavy thermal draperies, using techniques that extend their lifespan while keeping them looking beautiful.

FAQs

Many customers have questions about curtain and drapery cleaning services. We've compiled the most common inquiries to help you understand what to expect when choosing Lakewood Cleaning Company for your window treatment needs.

  • What methods are used by professionals for cleaning curtains and draperies?

    We use several specialized techniques depending on the fabric type and level of soiling. For delicate fabrics, we employ gentle dry cleaning methods that remove dirt without damaging the material.


    For sturdier fabrics, we may use controlled steam cleaning or injection-extraction methods. These approaches effectively remove dust, allergens, and odors that build up over time.


    Before starting any cleaning process, we carefully inspect each item to determine the most appropriate cleaning method. Our technicians are trained to recognize different fabric types and their specific cleaning requirements.

  • Can curtains and draperies be cleaned on-site, or do they require off-site treatment?

    We offer both on-site and off-site cleaning services. Many curtains and lightweight draperies can be effectively cleaned in your home, saving you the hassle of removal and reinstallation.


    Heavier draperies or those requiring deep cleaning may benefit from our off-site treatment. For off-site cleaning, we carefully remove your window treatments, transport them to our facility, and return them once the cleaning process is complete.


    The decision between on-site and off-site cleaning depends on fabric type, level of soiling, and your specific needs. We'll recommend the best option during our initial assessment.

  • How often should curtains and draperies be professionally cleaned?

    We recommend professional cleaning every 1-2 years for most households. However, this can vary based on several factors in your home environment.


    Homes with smokers, pets, or high dust levels may require more frequent cleaning—possibly every 6-12 months. Curtains in kitchens also tend to collect grease and cooking residue faster than those in other rooms.


    Regular cleaning not only keeps your window treatments looking fresh but also removes allergens and extends their lifespan. Light-colored fabrics show soil more quickly and may need more frequent attention.

  • What are the costs associated with professional drape and curtain cleaning services?

    Our pricing is based on several factors, including the size, fabric type, and condition of your window treatments. Simple curtain panels typically cost less than lined, pleated, or ornate draperies.


    On average, professional curtain cleaning ranges from $75-$150 per pair for standard-sized window treatments. Larger or more complex items like valances, swags, or specialty fabrics may have additional charges.


    We provide detailed quotes before beginning any work, so you'll know exactly what to expect. Volume discounts are available for cleaning multiple sets of curtains or draperies in one service visit.

  • Are there any specific care instructions for maintaining clean curtains and drapes after a professional service?

    After professional cleaning, we recommend regular vacuuming with a brush attachment on low suction. This simple maintenance removes surface dust before it becomes embedded in the fabric.


    Avoid direct sunlight when possible, as prolonged exposure can fade colors and weaken fibers. Consider using sheers or blinds during peak sunlight hours to protect your draperies.


    For minor spots, we can provide fabric-specific spot cleaning instructions. However, it's best to contact us for advice before attempting to treat stains yourself to avoid potential damage.
