Will you damage the floors?
The floor is covered before we open anything, and the room is left clean.

What if the sofa must go to the bench?
We book the service elevator and wrap it. Pickup, or reupholstery.
Can I be out during the visit?
Yes, if the building allows it. Keys can be left with the concierge, and we send photos of the finished work.

How far ahead should I book?
Allow time for management to approve the certificate and for the elevator booking. Tell us your building's rules when you call.
Does the repair smell?
