Derek Freye Dry Cleaning have been around since 1966, so they'll be celebrating 50 years of service before too long. That's pretty impressive by anyone's standards, especially these days! It is particularly true of the Wellfield Road site. A lot of businesses try and fail to stick on this stretch of road, and with two other laundrettes with dry cleaning services attached, that are within easy walking distance of this outlet, with one only a quick stroll around the corner, the competition is more that a little fierce! But Freye Dry Cleaners have got themselves covered. Not only have they got an enviable reputation to trade on, but they have also got three branches in three very different areas. Each can offer the other fianacial back-up if required. It also means that they can afford to engage in a bit of a price war with the competition. It's possible to get four items or clothes dry cleaned for £14.00 at Derek Freye Dry Cleaning and any duvet, regardless of size, can be cleaned for £12.00.

Having been around for over thirty years, and run efficiently, with care, Top Hat really are very good at what they do. It is not surprising then, that they handle some pretty prestigious clients. Famous ones too.. like the Cardiff Rugby and Football Teams. Check out all of the shirts that they've got hanging on the walls! But for all you bounty hunters out there... think twice before you go and nab one. Not only does the bloke that works there, (who wants to remain nameless), look like he could be a ferocious contender in the running-tackle stakes, but the shirts on display won't fetch much on the black market... they ain't worth much if they're not signed! 07817 151 921

Fabricare is a trusted self service laudrette that has been on Clifton Street for the last seven…read moreyears. Luckily the new one way system does not affect them too much, and the recession has not made too much of a dent in their popularity either. The only thing that has really threatened the business in a significant way in recent times is that a new shop has opened up offering ironing services a few doors down. But even this isn't presenting any kind of threat to the livelihood of the business. Fabricare also offer service washes and ironing services. They accept dry cleaning jobs, but send the dry clean items off to be serviced elsewhere, and so you may have to wait slightly longer for this service than at other outlets that have dry cleaning facilities in-house. The business is owned by Mrs Crean,who owns another outlet on City Road, and so has a manager to run this shop on her behalf. It's a friendly little laundrette, with a good number of machines.

As a previous Canton dweller, David Barnes was my friendly neighbourhood dry cleaners, one that provided exceptional results, every time. The staff here are friendly, always managing to keep a smile after a batty Yank comes in and, yet again, forgets her numbered ticket. Oops. I never really gave much importance to a dry cleaning facility and considered them all pretty much the same. That is, until said facility loses your favourite item of clothing, never to be seen again. Thankfully I never had to experience that at David Barnes, much to my relief. Here's hoping they open a Bay branch so my duvets, coats and suits can get the delicate cleaning care they require.

When I turned up to pick up the dress (after 4 months as they kept delaying it!) they said the wine stain that they had warned me about has been removed and said the dress is nicely packed between paper wraps in a box. When they asked me if I wanted to check, I said no as I had no reason to believe they were lying to me. I wish I had checked it! After a year and a half someone wanted to buy my dress a few weeks ago, as I took it out of the box I realised all the crystal buttons were damaged, they were chipped, all the mud stains were still on my dress and there were yellow marks all over my dress which originally were not there and it seemed like water that had travelled up my dress when they had tried to wash the train. This probably explains why they kept my dress for 4 months before saying that it was ready for collection! I contacted them and after several emails and weeks of chasing them for an answer they said they take no responsibility. My dress second hand is worth £800 and they are not willing to compensate. I will be taking this further to small claims court in Wales but I wanted to make sure you get a true feedback about their business before you decide to ruin your clothes and to be called a liar at the end. I'll keep you posted about the results. If you want to see photos of the dress, take a look at my google review.
