Specialist treatment for village-hall curtains
Village-hall stage curtains are often large, heavy and expensive to replace. Installations may include main curtains, borders, stage legs, masking curtains and additional drapes around the hall.
We clean and treat these curtains while they remain hanging, avoiding the disruption and cost of taking them down, transporting them and rehanging them.
- Main stage curtains
- Front-of-stage curtains
- Borders and stage legs
- Black masking curtains
- Hall window curtains
- Swags and decorative drapes
- Lined and unlined curtains
- Fabric room dividers
02 · Cleaning first
Older curtains may need cleaning first
Village-hall curtains can remain in place for many years without professional cleaning. Dust collects throughout the folds, across high-level sections and along the lower edges.
Curtains that are dusty, marked or heavily soiled should be cleaned before fire-retardant treatment. We can clean and treat them during one planned visit.
After cleaning, the fire-retardant treatment is applied evenly across the fabric. Curtains that are already clean can receive treatment without a separate cleaning service.
03 · Hall scheduling
Planned around hall bookings
The work can be arranged around regular classes, performances, weddings, community events and private bookings.
We normally need clear access to the stage and curtains for the agreed service period. Large furniture, decorations and equipment should be moved away from the working area beforehand.
04 · Measurements
What information is needed for a quotation?
For each curtain, send:
- The finished curtain width
- The curtain drop
- The number of curtains
- Whether the curtains are lined
- Whether cleaning is required
- The approximate installation height
- The village-hall address and postcode
Measure the width along the bottom edge of the hanging curtain rather than across the curtain track.
Include any borders, stage legs, masking curtains, swags or other drapes that also need treating. Approximate measurements are enough for an initial quotation, and photographs can be included when they help show the stage or access arrangements.
The quotation will confirm the cleaning or treatment service, price, mileage and appointment details.
05 · The certificate
What certificate will the village hall receive?
After fire-retardant treatment and payment, the village hall receives a Certificate of Fire Retardant Treatment recording BS 5867 Part 2 Type B treatment.
The certificate identifies the hall, the curtains treated, the treatment date and the product used. It also contains care and maintenance information for the hall’s records.
