Curtains act as giant filters for London's urban air, quietly accumulating pollen, soot, and dust mites with every passing day. Over time, this build-up doesn't just affect air quality — the acidic city pollutants actively degrade fabric fibres, causing the premature "sun-rot" that shortens the life of expensive drapery.

Clean Ethic's Expert Curtain & Drapery Cleaning service offers two options: a convenient on-site low-moisture steam clean for robust fabrics, or a specialist off-site dry cleaning process for delicate, lined, or interlined curtains. For off-site cleaning, we collect, clean at our branch, and re-hang within 10 calendar days — completely hassle-free.

Why Choose Clean Ethic for Curtain Cleaning

Preserves Fabric Integrity: Professional cleaning removes the acidic city dust and pollutants that cause sun-rot and fibre degradation over time.

Deep Allergen Extraction: Curtains act as giant filters for London air — we remove trapped pollen, soot, and dust mites to refresh your indoor environment.

Non-Toxic & Eco-Friendly: We avoid harsh perchloroethylene used by traditional dry cleaners, opting for biodegradable, planet-friendly solutions instead.

Odour & Smoke Neutralisation: Effectively eliminates trapped cooking smells, tobacco, or damp odours, leaving a natural, clean scent.

Ethical Craftsmanship: Your delicate window treatments are handled by technicians paid a London Living Wage, ensuring the highest standard of care.

Our Process

Fabric & Hem Inspection

We meticulously check the fabric composition, lining type, and hem stability to determine the safest cleaning method.

Industrial HEPA Dusting

Using specialised brush attachments, we remove surface dust and loose debris from the pleats, pelmets, and folds.

Targeted Soil Removal

We apply an eco-friendly pre-treatment to the leading edges and hems where hand-oils and floor-grime accumulate.

Bespoke Extraction or Dry-Clean

Curtains are either cleaned in situ or taken to our branch for a deep, controlled-environment clean and gentle press.
