Blinds and drapery cleaning in Fox Island, WA

Waterfront and wooded homes across the bridge from Gig Harbor, with wool rugs, salt air and wood stoves.

Locally owned, not a franchise

The national carpet-cleaning brands you see advertised around Pierce County are franchise territories run on a script: a low advertised price, a list of add-ons once the truck is parked, and a technician measured on ticket size. We run 3 vans out of a yard in South Park and a laundromat in Tukwila, and every review we have was earned one Fox Island living room at a time. Local ownership is not a slogan on this site; it is why the phone gets answered on a Sunday.

How the visit goes

The tech starts with a assess the fabric and ends with a dry in place; what happens in between is on the blinds, drapes & household soft goods page.

What we will tell you honestly

Some blinds are too fragile to clean wet and get a vacuum-only treatment. We would rather say that up front in Fox Island than surprise you at the door.
