Drapery Cleaning questions, answered by experts

You should avoid putting anything in the dryer that could be damaged from the heat or tumbling motion, or caught in any parts of the dryer. While there are some items that should never be dried (such as spandex, silk, leather, wool, etc.), there are some items you can dry, but only if you put them in a mesh bag first. These are usually delicate items or any items with strings or pieces attached that could be ripped off in a drying cycle. 

Delicate surfaces like softwood, painted areas, or antique furniture can be damaged by a power or pressure washer. Avoid power washing things with electrical components, including outlets or HVAC units, because water can short-circuit these systems. Fragile materials like glass or light fixtures shatter under high pressure. Additionally, plants and landscaping should be kept safe from the forceful spray to prevent harm. Always assess the surrounding area before power washing to avoid costly damage.

Regular vacuuming, spot cleaning, and dust-resistant sprays can help maintain freshness and prolong the time between professional cleanings.

The best way to clean drapes depends on the material, as certain washing methods are necessary for more delicate materials. You can follow the general guidelines below in most cases:

  • Cotton: Machine wash

  • Lace: Hand wash

  • Linen: Dry clean

  • Polyester: Machine wash

  • Silk: Dry clean or steam clean

  • Velvet: Dry clean

  • Wool: Dry clean

You should also consider if there’s any existing damage to the drapes, like pulls or small tears, that could get worse with aggressive washing. Additionally, older drapes may require special care from a professional to preserve them but still leave them clean.

Anything that might have been exposed to fumigation chemicals should be washed before use. Wipe down and sanitize surfaces like countertops and tables, and wash all utensils (or take care to store them in an airtight box beforehand), as well as anything else that could find its way into someone’s mouth, like kid or pet toys.
