4. Why is ultrasonics so good?
When cavitation happens near a dirty object, the vacuum action produced by millions of bubbles constantly imploding creates a tiny pressure wave that reaches deep into every nook and cranny of even the most delicate items. This tiny pressure wave dislodges and breaks up the dirt and other contaminants and gently lifts it away. The result is very fast and effective cleaning.
Nothing is missed. The simple fact is, it’s the best cleaning process available.
BENEFITS OF ULTRASONIC CLEANING:
- Low heat
- No harsh chemicals
- Gentle on fabrics & surfaces
- Removes mould, mildew, dust, fly spots, grease, nicotine, soot, odour, chemicals & hazardous materials.
- Clean & sanitised
5. Will my curtains shrink?
Because we use very low heat and only mild solutions to clean your window furnishings, shrinkage is rare. However, there is a possibility this could happen where curtains are made from certain types of fibres. We may experience shrinkage up to 3%.
6. Do you clean onsite?
Generally, no. Cleaning curtains and blinds onsite is only carried out when they are too large to return to the factory or other situation exist where taking them down is not practical or not possible.
In our experience, cleaning onsite will only give you half the clean you would expect if it were done in the factory. This is because it is extremely difficult to clean between the pleats or gathers at the top of the curtains. This is where most of the dust collects and the area which needs to be deep cleaned the most. A rigid hand tools cannot extract the dust deep in the folds of the material.
Cleaning you curtains and blinds in the factory gives you a much better clean.
7. How long before you return my curtains?
It usually takes 1-3 days to complete the cleaning of your window furnishings. The greatest factor determining return is the drying time as we air dry. Air drying reduces the chance of shrinkage.
8. Do you take down and rehang?
Yes we do take down and rehang.
You do not have to do a thing. We will even make minor repairs before we rehang to give you peace of mind that your tracks and carriers are working correctly.
9. Do you supply new window furnishings?
Yes we can provide new or replacements for any window furnishing you have in mind. We partner with highly respected and professional organisations to offer you a complete replacement service with high quality materials and workmanship guaranteed.

10. How much do your services cost?
The cost of each of our services varies according to what is involved and the type and size of the window furnishings. We generally price cleaning by the metre of track width for curtains and blinds and number of slats for verticals. Larger than normal or commercial items are quoted separately.
If you would like a quote over the phone or by our contact page, please measure the total track width or number of vertical slats and we will quote you immediately.
Where possible, we will provide you with an estimate of these costs over the phone. However, the only way to accurately determine if there will be a variation to estimated costs is upon site attendance and following a visual inspection of the job. Any estimates provided sight unseen is subject to variation. Any variation to estimated costs will be explained and advised to the client prior to commencing works.
In some instances, due to the nature of the service being requested, providing a quote unseen is not possible. In these instances, a site visit is required which allows us to properly assess the job and establish the scope of works required.
Wherever possible, we will offer the most practical and economical service solution. Where there are several options available, we will advise you of the same and the possible outcomes you can expect, so that you are able to determine the best option to meet your needs and your budget.
