How we gather (and how to interpret) our data

Our ratings turn up many local drycleaners who can tune up your clothes. The really good news? Many top-rated shops also charge low prices, meaning they won’t clean out your wallet while they clean your wardrobe.

Our price comparisons reveal astonishing shop-to-shop price differences. And you don’t have to pay high prices to get high-quality results.

That outfit was expensive enough—do you really have to add to its cost by paying for drycleaning? Maybe not.

Our ratings tables will help you find area shops that offer top-quality shoe repairs at reasonable prices.

Shoe repair shops can perform several tasks to fix up your footwear.

Here are a few basic steps to follow in dealing with whatever shop you choose.
