Before & After



{October 6, 2008}   Drapery Cleaning

The cleaning of draperies, curtains and other window treatments requires a professional  who understands the many nuances of this specialty. The investment you have in your draperies and window treatments is most likely substantial.

Our “Digital Drapery Documentation” ensures that your decorators original design concepts are preserved during the process. Photography, along with accurate pre and post dimensional measurements guarantee that the “after” will look just like the “before” - only fresher, cleaner and brighter! Our licensed Adjust-A-Drape Process eliminates or minimizes shrinkage. 

Exposure to humidity, oxygen and sunlight can cause permanent damage and color changes, and weaken threads, especially those in folds closest to the window. In cases where the linings of draperies are too sun-burned or yellowed for restoration, but the drapery fabric remains intact, we can custom install replacement linings to make the draperies as good as new! 

Cleaning on a regular basis–we recommend every 2 to 4 years – is important to prolonging the life of your draperies.

Hallak will keep your drapes looking beautiful!



{September 23, 2008}   What is dry cleaning?

Have you ever wondered what dry cleaning really is? Hallak Cleaners is here to answer all of your questions!

During dry cleaning garments are immersed in a liquid solvent; the absence of water is why the process is called ‘dry’ cleaning. Garments are assessed prior to being dry cleaning and pre-treated using appropriate solvents and techniques to remove stains. After this they are placed in a dry cleaning machine. This serves to remove the solvents used during pre-treatment and then uses solvents and soaps within the dry cleaning process to dissolve stains, such as grease. Garments are inspected after cleaning to determine whether they require further treatment. Once we are satisfied with the results we press the garments by hand.
