What is included
Curtains steamed on their tracks and blinds cleaned slat by slat, without the cost and risk of taking them down. Curtains filter the dust that comes through every window and balcony door. We clean them where they hang, so there is no shrinkage, no rehanging and no bare windows.
- Access planned: mobile tower, platform or podium steps
- Floor and furniture below covered before work starts
- Upper section and heading vacuumed first, then steamed
- Weight of each drop assessed before any is unhooked
How we carry out double height curtain cleaning
The first decision on a double height window is access. A narrow mobile tower or platform is set on floor protection, and the operative works the top third of the curtain from there: heading, pleats and upper lining, where warm air carries the most dust. The fabric is vacuumed, then steamed and extracted in sections moving downwards, with the lower part finished from the floor. Where the curtains must come down, two people lower each drop into a clean sheet, since a lined drop of that length is too heavy for one.
Tall glazing in Abu Dhabi villas takes hours of direct sun, and the top of the curtain sits in the hottest air in the room. Linings up there go brittle and can tear as soon as they are handled, while the lower half still looks sound. Dust thrown out by high level AC grilles also marks the heading in a grey line. The site visit checks the floor finish and the route for bringing a tower in, the fixing of the track to the ceiling or bulkhead, and any motor or cord system that has to be isolated first.
How it works
The same method on every job, so the result does not depend on who is on shift.
- Site visit and written quotation. A supervisor visits, measures and records every room, surface and extra. The written quotation that follows sets out the scope, with no hourly meter and nothing added on the day.
- Protect and prepare. Lifts, floors and furniture are protected and delicate finishes are logged on a surface register before any product is opened.
- Dry before wet, top before bottom. Dust is lifted with HEPA filtered vacuums from ceilings and fittings downwards. Each zone is then wet cleaned with chemistry matched to its finish.
- Detail work and floors. Tracks, switches, skirtings, handles and glass are finished by hand. Floors are machine scrubbed last so nothing is walked back in.
- Inspection and report. The supervisor signs all fourteen checks, photographs the result and sends you the report within the hour.
Double Height Curtain Cleaning in Al Karamah: what we plan for
Al Karamah is an established district in the middle of Abu Dhabi island, between Al Karamah Street and Sheikh Rashid Bin Saeed Street. Villas and villa compounds such as Al Dhafra Compound make up much of the housing, with older standalone homes in pockets such as the Al Musalla Area. Mid rise apartment buildings including Al Maharba and Al Karama Complex line the main roads, and Delma Street runs through the middle.
Traffic on the main roads lifts fine dust that settles on window ledges, car ports and outdoor AC units. Older window seals let that dust indoors, and hard desalinated water leaves scale on taps, shower screens and kettles.
Gated villa compounds register contractors with security in advance through the resident. Apartment buildings need a work permit from building management and a booked service lift. Where exterior work may need an approval, this is identified at the site visit and we prepare the paperwork asked for.

Questions about double height curtain cleaning in Al Karamah
What does double height curtain cleaning include?
Double height curtains of five metres or more are cleaned from a mobile tower or platform, steamed and extracted in sections on the track, or lowered by two people for off site work. The work includes access planned: mobile tower, platform or podium steps; floor and furniture below covered before work starts; upper section and heading vacuumed first, then steamed.
Do you bring your own access equipment?
The MELLS brings the tower or platform suited to the height and the floor finish, along with protection for marble or timber beneath it. Ladders leaned against a wall are not used for this work, because both hands are needed on the fabric.
Can very tall curtains be cleaned without taking them down?
In most cases they can, and it is the safer choice for the fabric and the track. Cleaning in place avoids the strain of lowering a heavy drop and the risk of creasing it in transit. Removal is kept for curtains that are stained through or whose label rules out moisture.
How much does double height curtain cleaning cost in Al Karamah?
We do not publish prices, because no two jobs are the same. The main factors: size of the property and number of rooms; condition, and how long since the last deep clean. Book a site visit: a supervisor from The MELLS looks at the work and you receive a written quotation with a defined scope before anything begins.
