When you need your drapes cleaned, you can either hire a cleaning service or do it yourself at home. On-site cleaning is faster, but off-site cleaning requires removing and transporting the drapes. You may also want to consider a fire-proofing treatment. Regardless of the method you choose, be sure to clean them regularly to ensure that they stay clean. Also, regular vacuuming can help prevent dust and pet hair from becoming embedded in the fabric.
Cleaning your drapes is the first step to maintaining their fresh, clean look. Depending on the amount of accumulation, you may want to hire a professional cleaner to take care of your drapes. Some drapes can be spot cleaned with a vacuum cleaner, while others require hand-washing. Generally, you can expect a thorough cleaning every once-a-year routine for most drapes, although they should be cleaned more often if you have smokers or excessive dampness in the home.
While dry-cleaning can save time, it is not always safe for drapes. Some fabrics should only be dry-cleaned, such as wool, and those with pleated, highly structured swags. Otherwise, you can either hand-wash them or machine-wash them. If you do decide to wash your curtains yourself, be sure to remove any embellishments or lining before you start. However, this is not the best method for delicate fabrics, especially if you have silk or velvet.
