If you have a one of a kind garment that is very important to you, and it requires cleaning, you can absolutely trust it to Bel-Aire Cleaners. My husband was gifted his mother’s kimono a few years ago, and we were looking to have it cleaned to prepare it for framing. We had read that Bel-Aire cleaners specialized in cleaning silks so we went in for a visit. Our visit was so positive. The owner answered our questions, described the process and set realistic expectations as to the results. Our garment was close to 60 years old. He assured us it would be handled with care but let us know that there could be potential colour bleed and the cleaning process wouldn’t correct some colour bleed that has already happened due to the kimonos age.We are thrilled with how it came out, but most importantly we are so appreciative of the respect our garment was treated with. They understood its significance and respected its cultural value. The kimono is a family heirloom for us, and the work Bel-Aire Cleaners has done will contribute to its preservation. Thank you so very much.
