Suit Care Between Professional Cleanings

Wool suits need proper care between visits to maintain their structure and appearance. Steam wrinkles instead of ironing directly. Use wooden hangers with broad shoulders. Brush fabric after each wear to remove surface dirt. Allow 24 hours rest between wears. Store in breathable garment bags, never plastic.

What To Do When Stains Happen

Quick action prevents permanent damage to formal garments. Blot liquid spills immediately with white cloth - never rub. For oil-based stains, apply cornstarch to absorb excess. Avoid water on silk or wool without testing first. Mark the stain location for your cleaner. Most importantly, bring the garment in within 48 hours for proper treatment.

Client Reviews

Real feedback from our customers in Toronto

My wool suit looks brand new! Perfect stain removal, professional handling of delicate fabric. Will definitely return.
JM

James Mitchell

Toronto, ON

They cleaned three suits and two wool coats for me. The quality is solid – fabrics feel fresh, buttons properly secured, no chemical smell. Pricing is reasonable at $45 per suit. Only minor issue: took 5 days instead of promised 3. Still, the attention to detail on classic garments makes it worth the wait.
RB

Robert Brown

Mississauga, ON

I had a vintage wool blazer from the 1970s with sweat stains and mothball odor. Previous cleaners refused to take it, saying the fabric was too fragile. Pavocu staff inspected it carefully, explained the process, and quoted $60. After treatment, the blazer came back without stains, fresh-smelling, with all original buttons intact. They even repaired a small tear in the lining at no extra charge. Communication was excellent – they sent me a text when it was ready. Highly recommend for anyone with heirloom or delicate pieces.
EW

Emily Watson

Scarborough, ON

Service is decent. They cleaned my cashmere coat and removed coffee stains. Result is good, fabric handled properly. Price is $55, which seems fair. However, they don't offer pickup/delivery, so I had to drive there twice. Also, would prefer more payment options – they only take cash and Interac. Overall, does the job but could improve convenience.
DL

David Lee

North York, ON

Brought in my husband's three-piece suit before an important meeting. They completed rush service in 48 hours without compromising quality. The vest lining was professionally pressed, trousers had perfect creases, jacket lapels looked crisp. Cost was $70 for rush, but worth every dollar for the peace of mind and excellent outcome.
SK

Sarah Kennedy

Etobicoke, ON

I've been using Pavocu for 8 months now, mostly for my work suits. They consistently deliver clean results with proper fabric care. The staff knows how to handle wool, tweed, and silk. My only suggestion: add online booking – currently you have to call or visit. Pricing runs $40-50 per item depending on complexity, which is competitive for Toronto.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about our dry cleaning services for classic garments

We use specialized equipment and solvents designed for delicate fabrics common in traditional garments. Our technicians have 15+ years of experience working with wool suits, silk blouses, cashmere coats, and vintage pieces. We assess each item individually and select appropriate cleaning methods - whether wet cleaning, traditional dry cleaning with PERC alternatives, or hand cleaning. Temperature, agitation levels, and drying methods are customized based on fabric type, age, and construction.

Standard turnaround is 3-5 business days for most items. Rush service is available within 24-48 hours for an additional fee. Complex pieces requiring hand cleaning or specialized treatment may need 7-10 days. We inspect garments upon arrival and provide accurate timelines. For Toronto customers, we offer free pickup and delivery within downtown core, which adds 1 day to overall timeline. Wedding attire and formal wear often require extended processing - typically 10-14 days for proper care.

We treat most common stains including wine, oil, ink, and perspiration using pH-balanced spot treatments. Success depends on stain age, fabric type, and previous cleaning attempts. Our specialists test cleaning agents on hidden areas first to prevent damage or color loss. We cannot guarantee complete removal on antique fabrics over 50 years old, as aggressive treatment may harm fibers. For valuable vintage pieces, we document condition before and after treatment. Protein-based stains (blood, food) respond better when treated fresh rather than set-in.

Two-piece suits start at $18-22 CAD, three-piece suits at $26-30 CAD. Evening gowns range from $25-45 CAD depending on embellishments and fabric. Wool coats are $20-28 CAD, cashmere items $22-32 CAD. Silk garments require specialized handling at $15-25 CAD per piece. Prices include basic pressing and minor button repairs. Complex alterations, extensive stain removal, or hand-beaded items incur additional charges quoted after inspection. We offer 15% discount on orders over $100 CAD and monthly subscription plans for regular customers.

Yes, we provide free pickup and delivery for orders over $50 CAD within downtown Toronto, including areas like The Annex, Yorkville, Rosedale, and Financial District. Service runs Monday through Friday between 9:00-18:00, Saturday 10:00-14:00. Schedule pickup minimum 24 hours in advance through our website or phone. For areas outside core downtown (Scarborough, Etobicoke, North York), delivery fee is $8-12 CAD depending on distance. We use insulated garment bags to protect items during transport and provide tracking notifications.

Empty all pockets completely - we are not responsible for items left inside. Point out specific stains or damage areas so we can address them properly. Remove detachable fur collars, belts, and decorative pins. Inform us if garment has sentimental value or special care requirements. For vintage items, mention approximate age and any previous repairs. If you know fabric composition beyond care label, share that information. Don't attempt home stain removal with harsh chemicals - this often sets stains permanently and limits our treatment options.

We carry full liability insurance and document all items upon intake with photos. Garments are tagged and tracked throughout the entire process. If damage occurs due to our error, we offer repair, replacement, or fair market value compensation up to 10x the cleaning cost. Pre-existing damage, manufacturing defects, or issues with worn fabrics are noted before cleaning and not covered. Claims must be reported within 48 hours of pickup. We work with certified appraisers for high-value items over $500 CAD. Our damage rate is below 0.3% across 12,000+ annual orders.
