Curtain cleaning at My Laundry Room costs from £10.50 per square metre for unlined curtains and £14.50 per square metre for lined ones. A pair of lined curtains, each 1.5m wide and 2m long, comes to about £87, collected from your door and delivered back for free.
Here's how the pricing works and how to work out a rough cost for your own curtains.
Prices by curtain type
| Type | Price per m² |
|---|---|
| Net curtains | £6.25 |
| Unlined | £10.50 |
| Lined | £14.50 |
| Blackout | £16.75 |
| Heavy lined | £17.00 |
| Heavy lined blackout | £19.75 |
| Blinds | £8.75 |
If your curtains are already clean and just need pressing, iron only costs less. Lined curtains, for example, are £11.50 per m² iron only.
Why curtains are priced by area
Curtains come in every size, from a small kitchen window to a floor-length bay. Pricing by the square metre means you pay for the amount of fabric we clean, not a flat fee that suits nobody.
Linings, blackout layers and heavier fabrics take more care to clean and press, which is why those cost more per square metre.
How to work out a rough cost
Measure each curtain on its own, width by length, in metres. Multiply the two to get the area, then add up all the curtains you're sending.
Example: two lined curtains, each 1.5m wide and 2m long.
Each curtain is 1.5 × 2 = 3m². Two curtains make 6m². At £14.50 per m², that's £87.
Another example: a pair of unlined curtains, each 1.2m wide and 1.5m long, is 3.6m² in total. At £10.50 per m², that comes to £37.80.
This gives you a good estimate. We confirm the final price when the curtains reach us and we've checked the fabric.
Washing or dry cleaning?
It depends on the fabric. We assess each curtain to decide whether it should be washed or dry cleaned, so it comes back fresh and in good shape. Delicate and high-value curtains may cost more than the starting price.
Other household textiles
While the curtains are down, it's often a good time to send the rest of the room.
| Item | Price from |

| Sofa cover, 2 seater / 3 seater | £20.00 / £28.00 |
| Throw, any size | £25.00 |

Need them shortened as well?
We can alter curtains too. Shortening plain unlined curtains starts at £22.25 per metre, and lined curtains from £27.50 per metre. Ask when you book and we'll take care of both.
