Earlier this year we had some major building work done to our house. Among other things, this involved the incredibly dusty job of bringing down a wall.

Johnson cleaner, JOhnson's, click clean deliver — We stupidly left a pair of curtains hanging while out kitchen was replaced earlier this year. Somehow they survived in these conditions, but they were very dirty.

Furniture was moved to keep it safe and various items were wrapped in plastic sheeting and stored in the loft. All this was to protect it from dust.

Despite all our preparations, we made one very foolish mistake. We left a pair of gorgeous, expensive, custom-made curtains hanging in our living room.

The result: they became a very dusty pair of gorgeous, expensive, custom-made curtains. So dusty, in fact, that even Helen, our eldest daughter, could tell they desperately needed cleaning.

You can imagine how happy I was to be approached by Johnson Cleaners and asked to try out its new Click Clean Deliver service. Those curtains were going to get the thorough cleaning they deserved.

Ordering online was straightforward. I had to set up an account but this was very simple.
