What types of garments do you specialise in?

We specialise in delicate and high-value garments that require expert handling. This includes gowns, silks, satins, brocades, sequins, beaded items, couture garments, leather, suede, and antique clothing. We also clean household items, curtains, and even designer handbags.

Do you clean and preserve wedding gowns?

Yes, we offer a full wedding gown cleaning and heirloom preservation service. Each gown is carefully examined, hand-cleaned, and packed into a protective preservation box that shields it from light, dust, and oxidation.

Can you clean designer handbags and shoes?

Absolutely. We provide advanced restoration services for handbags and shoes, including designer brands like Chanel, Gucci, and Dior. Each item is gently cleaned and restored to maintain its condition and style.

How long does the dry cleaning process take?

Most standard garments are ready for pickup within 2 to 3 business days. However, delicate items, wedding gowns, leather, suede, and couture pieces may require up to 5 to 7 business days to ensure proper inspection, treatment, and finishing. If you need something urgently, give us a call — we’ll do our best to accommodate express requests where possible.

Do you offer clothing repairs and alterations

Yes! We have three on-site seamstresses who can perform everything from basic mending and zip replacements to evening gown alterations and full garment tailoring. Fittings are available in-store.

How is your dry cleaning process different?

Every garment at Leon’s is inspected by hand and treated with the utmost care. We use only high-quality solvents and modern techniques, combined with traditional hand-finishing for a flawless result.
