Paid to have trousers tailored by Tuesday PM. I had to go in three times on Wednesday morning in order to collect them, initially being told they couldn't find them then come back on Wednesday afternoon. Turns out they took them to Mitcham to have the alteration done, some man then tried to shout at me & argue with me on the phone upon collection that because I was on the phone when I dropped them off they weren't ready on time. The only thing worse than failing to deliver on a service a customer pays for is to be rude, aggressive & tell ridiculous lies. I wouldn't return there or recommend it to anyone that wants things done on a reasonable or agreed timeline.

My beautiful designers guild curtains which were sheer voile were cleaned and invisibly mended after years of wear and tear. My interlined and lined really heavy cream curtains were also cleaned immaculately

Excellent, friendly and professional dry-cleaners. Family-run and great value. Have saved me several times when I have needed suits cleaned last-minute by proving a fast, flexible service but cheaper than other shops nearby!

FAQs - Dry Cleaning In Clapham

What should I look for in the Best Dry Cleaners in Clapham?

Look for a cleaner who inspects each garment individually, pre-treats stains by hand before the main cycle, and gives you an honest assessment if something can’t be fully cleaned. After 35 years in Clapham, we check every item at drop-off and tell you upfront if a stain or repair is beyond what we can do — we never charge for work we haven’t carried out. A genuine expert will also tell you not to dry clean something when it’s not necessary.
 

How much do dry cleaners in Clapham usually charge?

At Elegance Dry Cleaners, prices start from £7 for trousers and £14–£18 for a two-piece suit. A silk blouse is typically £9–£14, a wool coat £18–£24, and a wedding or evening gown £55–£120 depending on fabric and embellishment. Same-day service is included in the standard price — there’s no rush surcharge here. We always provide an exact quote at drop-off before any work begins.
 

Delicate fabrics such as silk, cashmere, or heavily embellished clothing often require special handling, which increases the cost. Some dry cleaners also offer premium services like stain protection, express delivery, or garment restoration, which can add to the price. It’s always best to request a detailed price list beforehand to avoid unexpected charges.

Can dry cleaners remove tough stains from clothes?

Yes — dry cleaning is particularly effective on oil-based stains like grease, make-up, body oils and cooking fat. Wine, coffee, tea and sweat stains require aqueous spotting agents applied by hand before the clean. The most important factor is time: a fresh stain brought in the morning after a dinner party has a very high chance of full removal. An old stain that’s been heat-dried in a tumble dryer is much harder. If you have a serious stain, bring it to us quickly — even if you’re not sure we can help.
 

Are eco-friendly dry cleaning options available in Clapham?

Yes. We use biodegradable, environmentally responsible solvents and cleaning products. Our dry cleaning machines are closed-loop systems — the solvent is filtered and recycled rather than discharged, which significantly reduces environmental impact. We’ve progressively updated our equipment and chemistry over the years to maintain high cleaning standards while reducing our footprint.
 

Do dry cleaners in Clapham handle delicate fabrics like silk and wool?

Absolutely — this is one of our specialities. Silk, wool, cashmere and structured tailored garments are the fabrics that benefit most from professional dry cleaning. Water causes wool to shrink and felt, silk to lose its lustre, and tailored garments to lose their shape. Our solvent-based process handles all of these without those risks. In 35 years we’ve cleaned thousands of delicate and high-value garments across Clapham, Wandsworth and South London.
 

How do I choose the Best Dry Cleaners in Clapham for regular use?

The best dry cleaners for regular use are the ones who build a relationship with you and your wardrobe. We’ve had customers who’ve been coming to us for over 20 years — they trust us with their best suits, their partners’ wedding dresses, their cashmere, and their curtains. Regular customers get consistent results because we know their preferences. Drop in to Northcote Road and introduce yourself — we’ll take it from there.
 

Look for transparency in pricing and clear communication. A reliable cleaner will explain their process and give honest advice about fabric care. Convenience also matters—location, pickup and delivery options, and operating hours can make a big difference for regular customers.

Ultimately, the Best Dry Cleaners in Clapham will combine professionalism, fabric expertise, and dependable service to ensure your clothes always look their best.

Do you offer same day dry cleaning in Clapham?

Yes. Drop off before 10am and collect by 5pm — Monday to Friday. On Saturdays we’re open until 6pm and same-day is still available for most garments when dropped before 10am. This is our standard service, not a premium option — there’s no rush surcharge. We’ve been running that same schedule for 35 years. More complex items (heavily embellished gowns, curtains, multi-piece suites) may need 48–72 hours — we’ll tell you at drop-off.
