A full-service shop: laundering and dry-cleaning, shoe repair, clothes alterations. Prices are…read morereasonable, service efficient. The best thing about this place, though, is the comedy. The people working here are real characters. The dry-cleaning business is handled by a friendly Indian lady. The shoe repair is done by a wise-cracking middle-aged bald Italian guy. And sewing and alterations are done by a quiet Chinese guy in the corner who's always drinking tea. There's a sitcom in there somewhere, I'm convinced of it. There's always funny banter, every time I go in. One memorable trip, though, I was there to pick some stuff up. There were three people in front of me. The first was being served by the Indian lady, and it looked like she had a fairly complicated order. The Italian shoe-repair guy started helping the next people in line; they were both women, and he greeted them each in turn with, How can I help, angel? When it got to my turn, he said, How can I help, mate? I said, What, you're not gonna call me angel? The Indian woman broke up laughing. Italian guy leans over the counter, sees I'm wearing shorts, and chuckles, Not with legs as hairy as that, mate! People would talk. The Indian woman laughs harder. He tries to find all the items in my order, but has trouble. The Indian woman is free by this time, and shoos him away to do it right. While she serves me, another woman comes in with a pair of shoes. Italian guy leans over the counter. How can I help, Angel? Hey! I add, laughingly. The woman looks at me, then back at Italian guy, confused. Did you just call me Jill? she says. No, dear; I called you angel. I'd have called you Jill if your name was Jill. The Indian woman just shakes her head. The woman with the shoes still looks confused, but continues. You repaired these for me the other day, but this piece you've added in is giving me terrible blisters. Can you do anything about that? Let me see those, he says. Who did this? It must've been the other fellow in here who did this work. I've been in that dry cleaners' a thousand times. He's the only one I've ever seen working on shoes in there. Hmmph. He goes off to work on the shoes. The Indian woman hands me my dry cleaning. Thanks very much, she says, with a big smile.

Great dry cleaning service as usual. This time I also bought a lint roller to spruce up those…read morewinter jumpers.

This place has very bad reviews in other websites and doesn't deserve 1 star too in here ( I should…read moresearched properly before wasting my time and money in here). Avoid at any cost as It has the worst customer service (very unreliable and don't capable of doing one simple task), lack of integrity and honesty. I gave him a shirt for sewing and alterations, not only he ruined the shirt but also refused to refund me the £40, I paid for. It was such a simple shirt and any person who knows how to sew, could make it without any mistakes easily. He just made so many excuses not to refund me by saying it was such a complicated job and so on. Just ignore this place as they can't use sewing machine and not capable of doing what they promise to do. There is another place a bit further up towards Hanwell with much better service and more reliable, the other place just charged me £20 for all the mess the owner of this place has done on my shirt. Customer satisfaction is a must which lacks in this place.

I used this laundrette for alterations because my usual dry cleaner had popped out to lunch and I…read morewas in a hurry so took a chance on Soapy Suds. Although the staff are friendly and clearly a family run business, the quality of the service they provide is very disappointing. I took a skirt in to have a new zip fitted. The skirt was brand new with tags still attached but as it had a broken zip I had been able to secure it at a bargain price. When I collected the skirt I was surprised to see they had chosen to use a metal zip when the original had been nylon. The zip subsequently caught the lining in it and jammed and the staff told me that I would have to be very careful not to jam it in future. At home the zip broke completely as I was trying the skirt on and to make matters worse I discovered the metal zip is completely exposed whereas the original is completely concealed for a smart look. This should have been a simple task and I now have to pay another £7 to have the same procedure repeated or attempt it myself! The lining had several rips now as a result of this botched job. I am extremely dissatisfied with the result. I would not recommend this place for alterations or repairs although the launderette facilities may be better...
