Auditorium curtains, drapes and blinds are one of the first things people notice when they make an entrance, albeit a Northcenter auditorium, a home or a business. If they are clean and nice, it makes a great impression. However, if the curtains, drapes or blinds are dirty, dusty and not well maintained, it can potentially affect a person’s initial thoughts about your home or business. This is why a cleaning specialist should be used about once per year to keep away dirt, dust, and stains.

While there are various types of materials that can be used on your wall and window hangings, one of the consistent cleaning treatments will be some form of vacuuming. This will help to keep windows cobweb and dust free, thus keeping curtains, drapes and blinds clean.

Once the windows are cleaned, you will need to decide whether you would like to clean the drapes and blinds yourself or go with a professional cleaner. Each option has its pros and cons, but keep in mind that if you decide to do the cleaning yourself, you will need to decide is what/how are you going to be cleaning the windows, as well as have all the required tools and equipment (aka, scaffolds in the case of auditorium curtains) that you will need to get the job done correctly.

Since there are going to be various cleaning needs, there are going to be various approaches and methods to getting the cleaning done correctly. For example, different types material and the types of stains or smudges will determine the cleaning method that would work best.

When it is time to clean your curtains, drapes or blinds, there are 3 main categories that your drapes and blinds may fall under. The first is regular cleaning them, then the washing of the drapes, and finally the cleaning of the blinds.

The first category would be to clean your drapes and blinds regularly. It’s just like any other chore around the house or office, the longer they go without being cleaned, the tougher it is going to become to clean them. The simple solution is to perform regular cleaning or have a cleaning professional do it for you. If nothing else, be sure to keep the windows clean. This will help limit the amount of dirt and dust that end up on the drapes and blinds.

The next phase would be to wash or have your drapes washed. This normally involves removing or pulling down the drapes. How you wash them depends upon the type of fabric they are made of, so if you’re not sure, be sure to ask an expert first. In most Northcenter auditorium curtain cleaning services, onsite (none removal) cleaning is more practical. Especially in case of a post-construction cleanup scenario.

Finally, it’s time to clean your blinds. While many find this a tedious task, a popular method is to regularly vacuum and use a duster to help get the blinds clean. Depending upon what they are made of, you may even want to put a protective product on them to help them last longer.

When it comes to cleaning curtains, drapes and blinds - from small to large scales - it can become an overwhelming and cumbersome task. Be sure to try and clean them yourself regularly, or find a professional that can do it for you.
