Behind every great wardrobe is a great garment care specialist. New Canaan is blessed with Irwin and David Mandel, the father and son team behind New Canaan Cleaners, one of Fairfield Countys best.
A couple of years ago, this particular fashion editor made a major fashion faux pas: I washed an errant red napkin with a large load of whites. The result? A basket full of clothes in an unflattering shade of bubble gum pink. A trusted friend recommended New Canaan Cleaners to solve my problem, which they did, and beautifully.
In the garment care business for 40 years and at the New Canaan location for 20, the Mandels can only be described as experts. Its about attention to detail. We examine everything before and after we clean it. We remove the buttons by hand before cleaning a garment. Its very involved, he says. We do everything in house. And either David or myself is always here.
This level of diligence extends beyond your Burberry. The Mandels and their team can handle your suedes and leathers. They will clean your handbags and restore your heirloom wedding gown. They will even clean your Uggs. In fact, for every pair of unsightly Uggs you bring in, New Canaan Cleaners will donate $3 to the American Cancer Society.
After 20 years of business ownership and residency in Fairfield County, Mandel Sr., a born and bred New Yorker, has only praise for his New Canaan neighbors. The people here are just nice. They appreciate their clothing and the way we handle it. Theyre the best customers around, he says. And, theyre pretty, which doesnt hurt either.
New Canaan Cleaners is located at 71 Pine Street in New Canaan. Call them at (203) 996-9616 to arrange pick-up and delivery service in many Fairfield County towns.
