Dry Cleaning Sheets and Linen Cleaning in Greensboro, High Point, and Winston Salem, NC

Flat and fitted sheets are washed and pressed and returned in 3 days. This service is basic so stains are not generally spotted by hand unless you point them out. Sheets are pressed by a roller press. However, we use quality detergents and hot water to remove most soil, perspiration and impurities. Shores can also clean, repair, and preserve pillows of all shapes and fabrics. Just ask at one of our convenient locations!

*Silver Service is also available on bed linens, which will involve more aggressive treatment of stains, and a hand touched finish, including desired starch level.

At Shores, fine table linens are carefully inspected and stains are pretreated by hand, from gravy and oils to coffee, wine and wax. We know stains and we know what it takes to remove them. By providing both dry-cleaning and wet-cleaning technologies, we can restore many fabrics that consumers believe have seen their day. We are constantly learning and applying new techniques such as, aggressive stain removal for older yellow stains and fabric-safe bleaches. Delicate table linens are carefully cleaned and treated just like your second- and third-generation heirlooms. After cleaning and ironing, we hang them with tissue in the folds to reduce creases. We also provide hand-rolled cloths. Raised and embroidered cloths are hand ironed to enhance every detail. Our seamstresses can mend and embroider; tears, holes and degraded fabric to restore your special table linens.

• Resist the urge to “rub” a stain out with a napkin. Most paper napkins contain bleaching agents and when combined with water and “rubbing” motion can actually discolor your linens.
• When spills occur during meals, gently blot with a dry white cloth and stop!
• Oily stains, such as gravy, butter, and mayonnaise should be blotted with a dry white cloth. Do not use water or club soda. However, you can also apply some corn starch to soak up the oils until you can get them to Shores.
• If the stain in water based, such as coffee, wine or soda, you can apply water sparingly and then blot with a dry white cloth.
• Wax can be gently scraped, while still warm, with a dull butter knife or plastic utensil.
• After the meal, gather up your napkins, placemats and tablecloths and shake them outside your home. Remember, most oily stains cannot be removed in the wash at home. After washing, they may look like they’ve been removed because they are clear in color, but these are the same clear stains that turn a deep yellow a month later.
