Green Cleaning FAQs

Do you use wet cleaning or dry cleaning?
We use both professional wet cleaning and modern dry cleaning, depending on the fabric and type of stain. Wet cleaning uses water and gentle detergents, while dry cleaning involves cleaning without water using specialized solvents. Our experienced team will always choose the safest and most effective method for each individual item to ensure optimal results without damage.

​

Do you use “perc” (perchloroethylene) in your dry-cleaning process?
Absolutely not. While perc is still commonly used in the industry, it is a known carcinogen and environmental hazard. At Unique Cleaners & Tailors, we use a hydrocarbon-based solvent — a non-toxic, odorless alternative that is safer for your health, softer on fabrics, and more environmentally responsible.

​

Are your cleaning products hazardous or polluting?
No. Our cleaning solutions are biodegradable and non-polluting, selected specifically for their effectiveness and safety. We provide the same exceptional clean you expect — without harming the environment or risking your health.

​

Will eco-friendly cleaning harm my clothes?
Not at all. In fact, gentler, eco-conscious cleaning helps extend the life of your garments by avoiding the wear and tear often caused by harsher traditional methods. You get beautifully cleaned clothes — without compromise.

​

Is wet cleaning more expensive than dry cleaning?
No, pricing is comparable. The difference lies in the technique and chemistry used, not in cost. Choosing a greener cleaning method is not only better for the environment — it’s a smart choice for your wardrobe and your wallet.
