Our specialty services
The big jobs, the tricky jobs — all done in-house
Unlike many dry cleaners who outsource specialty work, we handle everything right here at our St. Catharines facility. No waiting weeks for your items to come back from Toronto.
Drapery & Bedding Cleaning
We use the patented Adjust-A-Drape process to guarantee even hemlines after cleaning. Free pickup and delivery. Rehang service available.
Feather Pillow Cleaning
We clean and sanitize your feather pillows and return them with a brand-new cover, or ticking — as fresh and comfortable as the day you bought them.
Hockey Equipment Cleaning
We use soap, water, and odour neutralizer to remove bacteria, viruses, and the distinctive smell from hockey gear and bags.
Tablecloth & Linen Cleaning
We spot-treat stains from the last celebration and clean your tablecloths with the care they need — ready for the next special occasion.
Industrial & Work Clothing
Greasy shirts, coveralls, shop coats, overalls, and shop towels — cleaned using traditional dry cleaning methods. Twice-weekly pickup and delivery available.
Smoke & Flood Damage Restoration
We have the soaps, deodorizers, ozone pre-treatment, and 25 years of experience to restore smoke- and flood-damaged garments.
Fire Retardant Application
We are qualified to apply government-approved fire retardant to soft fabrics — window dressings, stage drapes, racing suits, and more.
Medical & Dental Office Laundry
Weekly contactless pickup and delivery of scrubs, lab coats, sheets, and towels. Returned cleaned and disinfected. Wash and fold by the pound.
Everything Done In-House — No Outsourcing
Many dry cleaners in the Niagara Region outsource specialty cleaning to facilities in Toronto or beyond, adding days or weeks to your wait time. At Lake & Carlton Laundromat, we handle everything at our own modern facility on Carlton St in St. Catharines. Your items stay local, and so does your trust.
Smoke & Flood Damage — Insurance Claims Welcome
If you have experienced a fire or flood, insist to your insurance or restoration company that Lake & Carlton Laundromat restores your garments. We have specialized soaps and deodorizers, specific cleaning and pressing methods honed over 25 years of experience, and an ozone machine for the toughest pre-treatment jobs.
Fire Retardant Application — Certified
We are qualified to apply government-approved fire retardant to soft fabrics including window dressings, stage drapes, and racing suits. We can immerse the fabric in fire retardant at our plant, or attend your site to spray it on. You will receive an official certificate as proof.
Medical & Dental Office Laundry Service
We offer weekly free, contactless pickup and delivery of medical and dental office laundry — scrubs, lab coats, sheets, and towels. Your items are returned cleaned and disinfected. Minimum order $45.
