Frequently Asked Questions

What is dry cleaning?

Dry cleaning uses special solvents instead of water to gently clean delicate fabrics like wool, silk, and embellished items that might shrink, fade, or become damaged in a traditional washing machine. Items still go into a large machine that resembles a washing machine however, only cleaning solvents are used and clothes are dry when they are removed.

What is laundry?

Laundry services, on the other hand, are best for washable everyday items like shirts, bedding, and uniforms, using water and professional-grade detergents for a deep clean. Both processes often include expert pressing, spot treatment, and careful inspection to ensure your items are returned fresh, stain-free, and ready to wear. Always check care labels, and when in doubt, consult your cleaner—professional advice can save your favorite garments from premature wear or damage.

What are the different options of shirts?

Standard shirt laundry is for shirts that will fit on our pressing form that are standard cotton button up shirts.

Hand press shirts are shirts that cannot fit or cannot go on the form. They are cotton blends, western style shirts, and metal or wood button shirts that are pressed by hand.

Deluxe shirts are an upgraded service we provide that has extra finishing and attention given to collars and cuffs. Tissue paper is placed in the next of the item with a clip to hold the collar in place keeping it crisp and ready to wear.

Dry Cleaning is for shirts made of silk, rayon, and polyester for example, that are dry cleaned and then pressed by hand. 

What happens if you do not remove a stain?

Although we have the latest technology in stain removal treatments, not all stains can be removed and we do not guarantee we can. We will add a note letting you know we were unable to remove the stain.
