Frequently asked questions
Do curtains need to be cleaned before fireproofing?
Curtains do not always need cleaning before fireproofing, but cleaning is recommended where curtains are dusty, stained or heavily soiled. Fire retardant treatment is most effective when applied to suitable, clean fabric.
Can you clean and fireproof curtains without taking them down?
Yes. Most curtains can be cleaned and treated on-site while hanging, including large stage curtains, school hall curtains, theatre drapes and care home curtains.
Will we receive a BS 5867 certificate?
Yes. Once the work is completed and payment has been received, we issue a certificate confirming the fire retardant treatment to BS 5867 Part 2 Type B.
How long does curtain fireproofing last?
Fire retardant treatment typically lasts up to 5 years or 5 dry cleans, whichever comes first. Curtains should be retreated sooner if they are washed, heavily cleaned, or exposed to conditions that may affect the treatment.
Do you cover our area?
Yes. We provide nationwide on-site curtain cleaning and fireproofing services across the UK.
Can you fireproof all curtain types?
Yes, we handle most fabrics and curtain types, including window curtains and stage drapes.
How long does the service take?
Most projects are completed within a few hours to a day.
