BE EXCELLENT. FIND TRUTH. SHOW LOVE.
Welcome to Ideal Dry Cleaners, a family-run business specialising in the delicate cleaning and preservation of wedding dresses. Based in the North East of England, we have been serving our local community for over 50 years, providing unrivalled knowledge and expertise in the field of delicate garment cleaning.
At Ideal Dry Cleaners, we are proud to be the only dry cleaning service in the region to have ever won the prestigious "UK Dry Cleaners of the Year" award. This accolade, which we have held for many years, is a testament to our commitment to providing consistent, quality dry cleaning services that our customers can trust. We have also been named North East Dry Cleaner of the Year, further solidifying our reputation as a trusted and reliable provider of wedding dress cleaning services.
Our Services
At Ideal Dry Cleaners, we specialise in the cleaning and preservation of wedding dresses, bridesmaid dresses, and mother of the bride dresses. We understand that these garments are not only beautiful, but also incredibly special and meaningful. As such, we treat each and every dress as if it were our own, using delicate methods specific to the requirements of the fabric.
Our cleaning process is designed to be as gentle as possible, ensuring that your dress is not damaged or altered in any way. We are familiar with many prestigious designer brands, including Caroline Castigliano, Pronovias, and Maggie Sottero, and have the knowledge and expertise to clean even the most delicate of fabrics.
In addition to our wedding dress cleaning services, we also offer a preservation boxing service. This involves encasing your beautifully cleaned dress in the highest quality, pH neutral, acid-free tissue paper, and carefully arranging it within a handmade preservation box. Our boxes are both beautiful and practical, offering a convenient and attractive storage solution for your wedding dress.
Our Process
At Ideal Dry Cleaners, we believe that the cleaning and preservation of your wedding dress is not a task to be taken lightly. That's why we have developed a delicate process that is designed to be as gentle as possible, while also delivering outstanding results.
When you entrust your wedding dress to us, we will collect it from you free of charge and transport it to our state-of-the-art facility. There, we will carefully inspect the dress to identify any stains or spots, and then use our delicate cleaning methods to remove them.
Once the cleaning process is complete, we will carefully arrange your dress within a handmade preservation box, using the highest quality, pH neutral, acid-free tissue paper to ensure that it is protected from any damage. We will then deliver the boxed dress back to you, free of charge, so that you can treasure it for years to come.
A Trusted Family Business
At Ideal Dry Cleaners, we are proud to be a family-owned and operated business. Our legacy stretches back over 50 years, to 1969, when Bob Turnbull first established the company. Today, we continue to uphold his commitment to providing the highest quality dry cleaning services, with a caring and conscientious approach to everything we do.
Our small, friendly team is dedicated to delivering outstanding results, with a personal touch that is often lacking in today's busy world. We believe that by combining our traditional values with modern techniques and technology, we can provide a truly exceptional level of service to our customers.
