What's new at the studio

We rebuilt the place around two things: garments that deserve better than solvent, and laundry volume that deserves better than a home washer.

Our flagship service

Garment care, without the solvent

Everything you'd take to a dry cleaner — suits, dresses, blouses, blazers, coats — cleaned with professional wet cleaning and Presso eco-care technology. Your clothes come back clean, pressed and smelling like nothing at all.

Over 60% of traditional dry cleaners in the US still use harmful, cancer-causing chemicals, like PERC.

  • No PERC and no harsh solvents — nothing to off-gas in your closet
  • Gentler on fibres, so colour and structure last longer
  • Cleaned and finished on site, never sent to a plant
  • Ready in 2 days as standard. Same-day service is available for an additional fee. Some structured or delicate garments need longer, whatever tier you pick — paying for rush doesn't override it. We tell you at drop-off before we start.

Laundry, done properly

Machines big enough for the thing you've been avoiding

A 60 lb washer takes roughly 6–8 loads of home laundry — king comforters and bulky bedding included — in a single cycle.

30 lb, 45 lb and 60 lb washers and industrial dryers up to 83 lb. Use them yourself in the self-service studio, or hand it over for premium wash & fold at $1.75/lb.

Several ways to pay — ask our team.

FAQ

Questions, answered

The things people ask us most, answered plainly.

Is this dry cleaning?

It does the job dry cleaning does — cleaning and finishing garments labelled dry-clean-only — using solvent-free professional wet cleaning and Presso eco-care technology instead of PERC or other harsh solvents. Same result, no chemical smell, gentler on the fibre.

How fast can I get things back?

Ready in 2 days as standard. Same-day service is available for an additional fee. Same-day and rush depend on the day's volume and the garment — never a guarantee. We confirm before we start. Some structured or delicate garments need longer, whatever tier you pick — paying for rush doesn't override it. We tell you at drop-off before we start.

Where are you and when are you open?

We're at 655 E Lake Dr, Decatur, GA 30030, in Oakhurst. Weekdays we open at 9:00am, weekends at 10:00am. Full hours are in the footer of every page.

What does it cost?

Garment care runs $5 to $25 per piece depending on the item, press-only is half the cleaning price, and premium wash & fold is $1.75/lb with a 15 lb minimum. Every price is published on our pricing page — no quote required for retail work.

Do you clean everything in house?

Yes. Nothing is shipped to an off-site plant. Your garments stay on E Lake Dr from drop-off to pickup, which is how we can offer same-day and rush at all and answer questions about your specific piece.

Is there anything you don't clean?

Yes — and we'd rather tell you up front. We don't currently take on wedding gown cleaning or preservation, leather, suede or fur, shoe and handbag repair, area rugs, bridal alterations, or fire, smoke and water restoration. If you have one of those pieces, give us a call at 404-687-0035 and we'll tell you honestly whether we can help.

Ready when you are

Your clothes deserve better than solvent.

Ready in 2 days as standard. Same-day service is available for an additional fee. Not happy with a garment? Bring it back and we'll re-clean it free.

Same-day and rush depend on the day's volume and the garment — never a guarantee. We confirm before we start.
