Services
Blinds & Shades Cleaning
Our professional blind and shade cleaning service removes airborne contaminants that accumulate over time, extending the lifespan of your window treatments. Using ultrasonic cleaning, injection-extraction, and hand-cleaning methods, we safely clean all types including fabric shades, honeycomb shades, and commercial Roman shades. This process improves indoor air quality, restores appearance, and prevents premature replacement while preserving functionality.
Drapery & Valance Cleaning
We specialize in deep cleaning for drapes and valances using gentle yet effective injection-extraction methods that prevent shrinkage or damage. Our technicians clean on-site or in our facility, handling delicate fabrics like silks and sheers without compromising structural integrity. This service removes embedded soils, eliminates odors, and revitalizes colors while maintaining original mounting structures for minimal disruption to your space.
Window Treatment Repairs
Our repair services restore functionality to broken window treatments through restringing, component replacement, and resizing. We handle corded and cordless blinds, fix drapery tracks, and replace parts for major brands. With a 1-year warranty on most repairs, we extend product lifespan, reduce waste, and avoid replacement costs while maintaining optimal operation of your window coverings.
Upholstery Cleaning
We clean fabric upholstery for residential and commercial furniture using dry solvents, wet cleaning, and Green Earth methods. Our technicians evaluate material requirements to select appropriate cleaning techniques that remove contaminants, eliminate odors, and restore appearance. This service applies to couches, chairs, office dividers, and auditorium seats, improving indoor air quality and extending furniture lifespan.
Commercial Services
Our commercial division handles large-scale window treatment and upholstery cleaning for offices, medical facilities, theaters, and educational institutions. We apply flame retardants to stage drapery, clean privacy curtains in healthcare settings, and service auditorium seating. With capacity for high-volume projects, we coordinate cleaning schedules to minimize business disruption while maintaining health and safety standards.

We had 2 of our Luminates cleaned and when they returned they were in worse shape then when sent them. The service person, Bert, told us to leave them stacked after he rehung them. We complied and that evening when we went to close them up they would not meet or close flat. The veins where all bowed. Called Friday night received call back on Saturday morning. Would be squeezed in late Tuesday to steam them. Received a call after 5 on Tuesday telling us he had 2 more stops before us and didn't know when he would get to us. Then Bert told us how slammed he was and would try to fit us in.

Good service. They fixed 4 of our cordless blinds at a fair price. They had to restring them and they turned them around in a day. Might want to call ahead and see how busy they are.
