On a high-rise the large window drapes and sheers are cleaned in place or taken down, and in a strata complex any common-area soft furnishings are a body-corporate matter. The method suits the fabric. Curtain cleaning is a soft-furnishing cleaning service, not a licensed building trade, so no licence is required, in Queensland under consumer law.
