Upholstery Cleaning in Red Hook, Brooklyn

Furniture in Red Hook leads a varied life. At home there are dining chairs and armchairs. In studios and shops there are work stools, waiting room chairs and booth seating. Near the harbor, all of it collects fine dust and a salty film from the air.

A good cleaning removes that layer, along with the body oils, food and drink spills that build up in any fabric.

We clean the furniture where it is, whether that is a loft apartment, an artist's studio or a restaurant on Van Brunt Street.

Before we begin, you get a firm price and an honest word about which stains are likely to lift.

Each fabric is checked before we start. We read the tag and test a hidden area, since cotton, linen, wool, velvet and synthetic blends react differently to water.

After a careful vacuum, each stain is treated. Studio furniture often has paint, ink or clay dust; home furniture has the usual coffee, wine and pet marks.

Strong fabrics get hot water extraction. Delicate fabrics get a gentle low-moisture clean. Leather and vinyl, common on restaurant booths and bar stools, are wiped clean and conditioned where needed.

Damp air on ground floors can give fabric a musty smell. We focus on odor removal, and suggest good air flow after the visit so the furniture dries well.

Benches and window seats in loft conversions are often custom-made, with cushions cut to fit. We clean them in place and do not remove covers that were sewn on.

Dogs love the waterfront here, and a wet, sandy dog coming home from Valentino Pier usually heads straight for a favorite chair. We lift out the sand and fur and treat the smell.

For restaurants and shops, we can clean early in the morning or on a closed day, so customers are not affected.

Vintage and salvaged pieces are popular in Red Hook homes. We look at the frame and the old finish and keep water away from it.
