A chair costs from €7, and for larger volumes we agree the price before work starts. We do not clean hard classroom chairs: that is routine cleaning work. Tell us the number of chairs, add photos and give the school holidays or days when the rooms are free.
What is really our work in a school
Most school chairs are wood or plastic, and they are looked after in routine cleaning. Our work starts where there is fabric, upholstery or faux leather.
- Assembly hall: many matching chairs, often in rows. Read more about this kind of work on the page conference chair cleaning.
- Staff room: sofas and chairs with coffee stains.
- Library and reading room: pouffes and upholstered chairs.
- Head's office and school office: office chairs.
- Lounge areas in corridors: soft seating modules and sofas used by all pupils.
If a pouffe or module has a PVC or other wipe-clean cover, we have no general rule: check the manufacturer's instructions and add a photo.
The easiest time is the school holidays
In a school the hardest thing is not the fabric but the calendar. The rooms are busy from morning to evening, and the assembly hall may be booked for clubs and events. In the holidays everything is simpler, as the rooms are empty and the furniture can dry undisturbed.
Allow a margin before the first day of school or graduation. Drying depends on air humidity, ventilation, temperature, the fabric and the filling, so we do not promise a number of hours. The Health Inspectorate (Veselības inspekcija) gives 40–60% as comfortable indoor air humidity.
Ink and felt-tip pens: what may stay
In a school, stains come from pens and felt-tips. Ink on fabric is a difficult stain, and on leather it may prove impossible to remove. Such stains may stay. Do not pour solvents on them: they can damage upholstery foam.
Scratches and tears are not dirt, and cleaning will not repair them. A chair with a sagging seat and a worn back will still look old after cleaning. Ask the specialist whether that chair is worth cleaning.
If the budget does not allow everything at once
A school often has to choose what to do first. Start with the rooms most people see: the assembly hall and lounge areas. The staff room sofa and library chairs can be the next stage. If you split the list by room and add photos, the specialist can give a price for each part separately, and the school decides where to start.
What to put in the form
- A list of chairs and other furniture by room.
- Photos: one typical chair, the worst chair, the label if you can find it.
- The school holidays or the days when the rooms are free.
- How to get into the school outside teaching hours: entrance and the staff member in charge.
- Whether the price is needed for a quote or a tender.
What a school can expect
Usually comes out
- A greyish look on upholstered chairs
- Dust and everyday dirt
- Fresh drink stains
May stay
- Pen and felt-tip ink
- Old stains cleaned earlier with unknown substances
- Scratches and tears
- Wear on the edges of assembly hall chairs
We do not promise that furniture will be suitable for allergic children after cleaning, and we do not replace the school's routine cleaning and hygiene procedure.
How much school chair cleaning costs
Dining chair from €7, office chair from €10, pouffe from €10, armchair from €20, two-seater sofa from €35. For assembly hall chairs the specialist will say from the photos which item applies. For larger volumes we agree the price before work starts. The price depends on size, fabric, how dirty it is, smell and distance.
The minimum order is €45: if the total is lower, you pay €45. Travel is included in Riga and up to about 15 km outside Riga; further out it is from €10. The full price list is on the prices page.
