We treat the incense, not mask it
Bakhoor residue is cleaned out of the seating and curtains and off the walls, so fresh oud is not sitting on months of old smoke.
Majlis and Diwaniya Cleaning in Al Thaghr, Jeddah
Al Thaghr is a residential quarter on Prince Majid Road between Old Makkah Road to the south and Al Jamiah Road to the east, bordered by diesel fumes from heavy trucks and oily dust from the port and industrial zone. Preparing a majlis here means dealing with diesel soot and workshop particles that cling, and coastal moisture that makes stored fabrics smell musty.

What changes about majlis and diwaniya cleaning in Al Thaghr
Floors in older homes are often plain cement or ceramic tile that darkens where soot is walked in. Walls carry a grey layer of oily dust, and drapes smell of salt and mildew. For the method itself, see our guide to majlis and diwaniya cleaning.
-
The first reason
Oily dust from trucks and the port
Al Thaghr sits south of the port and industrial zone, and heavy lorries pass on nearby roads daily. Dust here is not plain but a mixture of diesel soot, workshop particles and salt from the sea. This oily dust clings to net curtains, window sills and kitchen cupboard tops in a way that is hard to remove without repeated washing.
-
The second reason
Coastal humidity and musty smells
High humidity from the sea compounds the problem. Bathrooms and enclosed corners collect musty odours from moisture and salt. Stored fabrics, cushions and heavy drapes hold a strong stale smell even after windows open and air flows through.
-
The third reason
Old cement floors and discoloured ceramic
Older homes in Al Thaghr have plain cement or simple ceramic floors. Oily soot deposits on them and darkens them where foot traffic is constant. Cleaning demands hard scrubbing to remove these black marks that have built up over years.
What majlis and diwaniya cleaning covers in Al Thaghr
A southern neighbourhood between the sea to the east and heavy goods roads to the west.
-
Ceilings and high corners
Ceilings may carry a layer of grey oily dust, and cleaning demands a strong brush and repeated passes.
-
Surfaces and furniture dusted
Surfaces and cupboards hold diesel soot and salt, and need intensive wiping with damp cloths.
-
Glass and mirrors
Glass and mirrors are covered with a grey film of oily dust, and polishing needs more effort than in other neighbourhoods.
-
The floor, by its type
Floors are ceramic or cement with deep black stains, and hard scrubbing may be needed but requires care.
-
The guest bathroom
The bathroom has strong mould smell and salt marks on walls, so intensive cleaning and ventilation are essential.
-
Airing the room out
Ventilation is critical here: deep and long opening so moisture, salt and mould leave the room.
Not included

- Repairing torn fabric or replacing majlis covers

How a majlis is actually cleaned
-
1
We look the room over with you first
Seating, carpet, curtains and surfaces, before anything starts, so we agree the scope and what the price covers.
-
2
We check the fabrics before we touch them
Majlis seating and curtains vary from cotton to velvet and heavy weaves, and they do not take the same heat or product.
-
3
Deep dry-vacuum first
Before any water, on the seating and the carpet both.
-
4
Stains treated each by its method
Gahwa, cardamom and food are not one problem.
-
5
Washed by the method each fabric takes
We choose the method after seeing each piece, loosen what has bound into the seating and carpet, and extraction pulls it straight back out with the water, in one pass, so nothing is left soaking in the foam.
-
6
A walkthrough with you before we leave
We go back through the room with you.

Why us for this service in particular
Every fabric tested first
We test the fabric on a hidden spot before we clean it.
A team, so it is ready when guests are
The company runs several teams, and we send a team rather than one person.
We say no when it is no
If the seating needs reupholstering rather than cleaning, we say so.
From our work
Photographs from real jobs carried out by the crew.
The job does not close until you approve it
The commitment is small enough to actually keep: we do not leave until you have seen the result and told us what you think of it.
What is different about South Jeddah
South Jeddah runs from the port and the industrial city down towards Al Khumrah, and homes here sit between the sea and the heavy goods roads. The dust is darker and oilier than in the north, a mix of diesel soot and workshop grit, and it clings to net curtains, window sills and the tops of kitchen cupboards. Floors in the older low rise housing are often plain cement or ceramic tile that darkens where soot is walked in. Humidity from the coast adds mildew in bathrooms and a musty smell in stored fabrics.
Questions about majlis and diwaniya cleaning in Al Thaghr
The smell of salt and mildew is stuck everywhere. Will it go completely?
We open windows very deep and use strong natural fresheners. The smell may reduce greatly but may return quickly if windows stay closed in damp weather.
The curtains have a thick layer of black dust. Are they washed?
We remove heavy dust with a strong vacuum. If you want them fully washed, that is a separate service after the core preparation.
Black marks on the floor are old and built up. What do you do?
We scrub the floor hard with repeated cleaning. Very old marks may need vigorous scrubbing which could affect the sheen, but we remove as much as we can.
The bathroom smells strongly of mould. How do you treat it?
We open windows and doors and ventilate hard. We use strong cleaner to remove mould traces from walls and gaps. We may need to air it again the following day.
Guests are coming from far away. When is it safe for them to arrive after we finish?
Three hours after we finish. Moisture takes longer to dry completely in this quarter.
The furniture is old and the floor cushions are full of dust. Will cleaning damage them?
We dust furniture gently and use a weak vacuum if the pieces are very old. Old cushions may suffer from hard scrubbing.
How long until the majlis is usable again?
The fabrics come out damp, not soaked, because wet extraction pulls most of the water in the same pass. With the room aired it is usually ready the same day. If you have guests coming, tell us when, and we plan the work so it is dry in time.
How often should a majlis be cleaned?
By how much it is used, not by the calendar, a weekly guest majlis earns it far sooner than an idle one.
How much does majlis and diwaniya cleaning in Al Thaghr cost?
It is set after the inspection, because it follows the size of the job, the materials involved and their condition. Send photos on WhatsApp and we will give you an estimate before we reach Al Thaghr.
