Garment Restoration

There is hope

In many cases, we can rejuvenate your cottons, linens, silks and wools that have become yellow, grey, dull, or stained due to improper processing.

Our special whitening and brightening processes can bring them back to life.

And we can do this (in most cases) even if your garments have been contaminated by fire, smoke, soot, water, mold, mildew and/or humidity as a result of a fire or flood.

In addition, we have a number of other procedures and processes that can aid in the restoration of unwearable or damaged garments:

Corrective stain removal

Example: removing the residue of an untreated or improperly treated stain; removing age-related stains resulting from improper storage.

Corrective texturing

Example: eliminating stiffness in fine wools or silks; restoring a light crispness to a cotton or linen; removing sizing or starch overdoses on cottons and linens.

Corrective finishing

Example: raising the crushed nap in velvet (in some cases); removing unwanted creases in blouses and shirts or slacks, trousers and shorts.

Corrective re-blocking

Example: re-blocking (re-shaping) knits to their desired and/or original measurements.

Corrective reweaving

Example: repairing rips, tears and holes in a garment; eliminating snags and pulled yarns (in some cases).

The list, of course, is endless.
