My poor wedding dress has already received a beating and will continue too... After the wedding…read morewedding (the actual day of the ceremony) which was boiling hot with intense sunshine all day and an outing at our wedding festival (probably the hottest day of the year), the dress definitely needed a clean before outing number 3 (a wedding garden party as run by my mother). Now, I don't look at labels when I buy clothes. It doesn't matter whether it's hand wash, dry clean or delicate; it all goes in the washing machine. A) Dry cleaning a whole bunch of clothes is expensive and B) I don't tend to buy pricey items (so don't mind if they don't last as long as they should). However, I had to make an exception for my wedding dress. I had spotted Emma S's review of Elite dry cleaning before and she had told me how they had done a magnificent job of getting a coffee stain out of a beige suit; so I figured it would be a good bet. Add that to the fact that it's just around the corner from us and convenience + recommendation = a winner. We hadn't realised that it's cash only initially, so that's a top tip for you! A dress costs £10 to dry clean and Dan got his suit done at the same time. They were perfectly helpful when we first went in (although we think they misheard our request for opening hours and we went back when it was closed) and the place was clean and tidy. Just what you want from someone taking care of treasured items. Dan took the items back to Elite when they were open and received the obligatory tickets. Everything was done in a couple of days and the collection process was just as easy as the drop off - swift and efficient. My dress is now clean, fresh and steamed; ready to come out and party again. I don't think Elite is the cheapest dry cleaner in town, but there isn't many places I would trust to look after my wedding outfit.

I took my beige trousers in here the other week as I spilled coffee over the, and when I collected…read morethem, the stain was gone! Fantastic! The service is good and if there is an issue, the manager is just over the road and comes over to help out. I've also taken in full duvet sets which cost £7 to get cleaned and ironed (4 pillowcases, 1 sheet and 1 duvet cover). A two piece suit is £9.50 which is reasonable. They are also able to do a quick turnaround so that's handy if you need something quickly. They also do other things like zip replacements (£6), which can be useful.

I trust Gerard's in Sutton with my delicates. I've all of the above cleaned here at one time or another and each time I have been impressed with the results. Friendly, helpful and knowledgable staff. Excellent customer service and great results every time. The price isn't bad either.

So glad I found this place! The women working there were generous and sweet. they got out a really…read morebad stain from my favourite dress and even delivered it at short notice when i couldn't pick it up. I don't think the prices are expensive at all in comparison to other specialist cleaners and i definitely feel like i got my moneys worth anyway. I definitely recommend it as Ive had really bad experiences of stuff being ruined at Johnsons and this place put my mind at ease. Been a loyal customer ever since.

My eternal quest for shoe dye continues... I thought a launderettes would be an ideal place for…read morefinding shoe dye, but sadly not. I popped in here primarily to ask about whether they had any in stock - which they didn't. Obviously this was disappointing, but it gave me a chance to look round. They're doing a good job here - washing, ironing, repairs, alterations - even free advice, it seems. As I went in, the lady at the counter was giving a lot of helpful advice to a gentleman who was very concerned about a silk shirt of his. It seems that he hadn't even used their services, but was just after some advice, which was happily given. They also imparted lots of advice to me as to where to pick up shoe dye, and, along the theme of general helpful information, have sort of local noticeboard in their shop, which I thought was a nice, civic-minded touch. If I have any further clothing-related needs, I shall visit Ulverlie Washe again. They know their stuff.

I came in here a few weeks ago with my aunt as we needed to wash a pair of curtains that were too…read morebig to fit in either of our machines. It was a spur of the moment kind of visit in which we rapidly spotted it and immediately pulled up outside all raring to get these curtains washed. Inside were obviously lots of machines as you would expect and the lady that worked there asked us if we needed anything else doing to the curtains, ie. If they needed ironing afterwards or adjusting. We respectfully declined as we could iron them ourselves, but thanked her anyway. It was really lovely of her to ask and to be honest we did not expect her to be so helpful and accommodating as we were only washing some curtains. Anyway, the machines were great and did the job, we did not want to tumble dry them and so left afterwards. It is a handy place to know about!

I have been in here a few times just to get some coats and dresses dry cleaned. It really bugs me…read morewhen clothes labels state that they are dry cleaning only as it takes effort to take your clothes out for someone else to clean. Anyway, I noticed the place when I was out and about and decided to take my clothes in here. The lady who served me was very polite and checked that my clothes were ok to be dry cleaned, she gave me a date by which they would be ready, which was pretty much a couple of days later - I think they get quite busy here so they like to organised! The prices were not too bad, but I have always found dry cleaners quite pricey, so nothing shocks me these days. When I got my clothes back they were in great condition and I was pleased. Overall, I recommend this place.
