Drapes and Blinds Cleaning
Drapes and blinds tend to be afterthoughts in the typical cleaning routine. Yet, drapes and blinds are materials that collect dirt, hold odor and shouldn't be forgotten. In other words, drapes and blinds need cleaning.
Our greater Boston area SERVPRO team excels at cleaning fine fabrics and intricate pieces using wet and dry cleaning methods — it all depends on the fabric. When our team is called to clean drapes and blinds we carefully inspect and test fabrics to determine which of our System’s five cleaning methods is best suited for your particular needs. For fine fabrics we have state-of-the-art equipment designed specifically for these applications.
Our team is made up of trained and certified professional cleaners.

When Should My Drapes Be Cleaned?
A good rule-of-thumb is to clean drapes approximately every two years. A recent survey by SERVPRO disclosed that the average customer believes drapes should be cleaned when they look dirty. Depending on your heating system, the amount of smokers in the home, and other factors, drapes may not show soil for two to six years. The oily atmospheric soil will gradually cause the fabric to deteriorate. Often, direct sunlight is unjustly blamed for this. You may triple the life of your draperies through professional cleaning, which is relatively inexpensive compared to replacement costs.
Professional Cleaning
When your draperies need cleaning, make certain they are dry cleaned ONLY. Only a small percentage of materials can be laundered. If in doubt, call us for advice. Be discriminating in your choice of professional dry cleaners. Some cleaners have equipment designed for clothes cleaning, while others have equipment specifically designed for draperies.
SERVPRO of Boston Downtown / Back Bay / South Boston / Dorchester has an exclusive process of dry cleaning draperies right in your home. There’s no need to have your home or office exposed while your draperies are out being cleaned. We inject a specially formulated solvent into your drapery under pressure and extract the chemical, leaving your drapes clean. This special process results in no damage or shrinkage to the material. Most importantly, you will get quality cleaning at a reasonable price.
