Curtains Cleaning Services in Nairobi
First Choice Cleaning Services Ltd provides professional curtains cleaning services in Nairobi for homes, apartments, offices, hotels and other commercial premises. We clean curtains, sheers, drapes and selected duvets using methods chosen according to the fabric, care instructions, condition and level of soiling.
Curtains gradually collect dust, odours, airborne particles and stains. Without proper cleaning, they can lose their freshness and affect the overall appearance of a room. Our service helps remove accumulated dirt while protecting the fabric’s colour, texture, lining and structure as much as reasonably possible.
We offer both onsite curtain cleaning and pickup-and-delivery arrangements, depending on the fabric and recommended cleaning method. Before cleaning begins, we inspect the material, check the care label where available and discuss any visible stains, discolouration or damage with the client.

Professional Curtains Cleaning Services in Nairobi
Different curtain fabrics cannot be cleaned using the same method. Heavy drapes, lined curtains, sheers, blackout curtains and delicate decorative fabrics respond differently to moisture, heat and cleaning products.
Selecting an unsuitable process may cause colour bleeding, shrinkage, distortion, watermarks or damage to the curtain lining. For this reason, we assess each item before recommending onsite steam cleaning, vacuuming, spot treatment, hand washing, wet cleaning or specialised offsite cleaning.
Our curtains cleaning services in Nairobi are suitable for:
- Homes and apartments
- Corporate offices
- Hotels and furnished apartments
- Restaurants and hospitality facilities
- Schools and institutions
- Churches and community facilities
- Conference and meeting rooms
- Property managers and landlords
- Move-in and move-out cleaning assignments
Our Curtains Cleaning Services Methods
Onsite Steam Cleaning
Onsite steam cleaning may be suitable for certain curtains that cannot be conveniently removed or where the fabric allows controlled steam treatment.
The process helps loosen light dirt, refresh the fabric and treat selected areas while the curtains remain hanging. However, steam cleaning is not appropriate for every material. Heat-sensitive fabrics, some linings and curtains with unstable dyes may require a different method.
We use suitable steam-cleaning equipment and assess the fabric before proceeding. The client is advised about ventilation and the expected drying period.
Curtain Vacuuming
Vacuuming removes loose dust, lint and other surface particles from curtains and sheers. It can be performed using a suitable vacuum cleaner with a soft-brush or upholstery attachment.
This method is useful for routine curtain maintenance and as a preparation stage before another cleaning process. Vacuuming alone may not remove embedded dirt, odours or established stains.
Spot Cleaning
Spot cleaning targets a specific stain or soiled section without cleaning the entire curtain.
Before treatment, we consider the type of stain, fabric construction and colour stability. A suitable cleaning product is applied carefully to reduce the risk of spreading the stain or damaging the material.
Although many stains can be improved, complete removal cannot be guaranteed. The outcome depends on the stain’s cause, age, previous treatments and the type of fabric.
Hand Washing
Hand washing may be recommended for selected curtains and sheers that require gentler handling than a standard machine cycle.
The curtains are cleaned using an appropriate detergent and controlled agitation. They are then rinsed carefully to remove cleaning-product residue. This method is only used where the fabric and care instructions permit water-based cleaning.
Wet Cleaning
Wet cleaning uses water, suitable cleaning agents and controlled washing procedures to clean washable curtains thoroughly.
It may be appropriate for fabrics with heavier general soiling, provided that the care label allows water-based treatment. The water temperature, detergent and washing action are selected according to the material to reduce the risk of shrinkage, colour loss and distortion.
Specialised Offsite Cleaning
Some lined, delicate or dry-clean-only curtains require specialised offsite treatment.
Where necessary, we arrange collection of the curtains and return them after cleaning and drying. The recommended method is determined by the care label, fabric construction and existing condition.
Dry cleaning or another specialised process may be recommended where water could damage the material. Turnaround time is confirmed after inspecting the items.
Onsite and Pickup-and-Delivery Options
Our curtain cleanings services in Nairobi are provided through two main arrangements.
Onsite Curtain Cleaning
Onsite service is suitable where:
- The curtains can safely be cleaned while hanging
- The fabric permits controlled steam or surface treatment
- Removal and reinstallation would be unnecessarily disruptive
- The premises have adequate access and ventilation
- The required treatment does not involve full immersion or machine washing
Pickup-and-Delivery Service
Pickup and delivery may be recommended where:
- The curtains require hand washing, wet cleaning or specialised treatment
- The items need controlled drying
- The fabric requires detailed inspection
- The curtains are heavily soiled
- Onsite cleaning could affect walls, floors or nearby furniture
Collection, return and reinstallation requirements should be agreed before the service is confirmed.
Duvet Cleaning Services
In addition to curtains, we clean selected duvets according to their filling, outer fabric, care label and condition.
Duvets require enough washing and drying capacity to prevent detergent residue, uneven filling or retained moisture. Before accepting a duvet for cleaning, we inspect it for torn seams, existing stains, colour instability and any manufacturer’s instructions.
The recommended process may include:
- Pre-inspection
- Stain assessment
- Washing with a suitable detergent
- Thorough rinsing
- Controlled drying
- Final condition check
Some duvets may require specialised treatment and may not be suitable for ordinary washing.
Our Curtain Cleaning Process
1. Initial Enquiry
The client provides information about the number, size, type and location of the curtains. Photographs may help with the initial assessment, although a physical inspection may still be necessary.
2. Fabric and Condition Assessment
We inspect the fabric, lining, care instructions, stains and existing damage before recommending a cleaning method.
3. Quotation and Service Confirmation
We provide a quotation based on the curtain size, quantity, fabric, cleaning method, level of soiling and whether onsite service or pickup and delivery is required.
4. Preparation and Cleaning
The surrounding area is protected for onsite work. Curtains collected for offsite cleaning are recorded before transportation. Cleaning is then completed using the agreed method.
5. Drying and Final Inspection
The curtains are allowed adequate drying time and inspected before completion or return. Any stain or condition that could not be fully corrected is communicated to the client.
