Ten years of ironing, and still mostly word of mouth
Almost every customer on the round arrived because someone recommended us — a neighbour, a colleague, or another parent on the school run. These are their words, published with permission.
5.0
Average rating
Based on 10 reviews from households and businesses across West Yorkshire.
“Six stylists, six sets of blacks, every single week. It comes back sorted and labelled by name so the girls just grab theirs. One invoice at the end of the month and I never have to think about it. Best decision I made for the salon.”
Turnaround
The single most mentioned thing. Customers consistently describe orders arriving back within a day, on the agreed slot.
Consistency
The same person collecting and pressing each week comes up repeatedly, particularly from older customers and business accounts.
No surprises
Several reviews specifically mention the bill matching the doorstep quote, including when an order was larger than expected.
Families & households
The bulk of the round. School uniform, work shirts and the weekly basket, mostly on standing weekly or fortnightly slots.
“I work shifts and my husband is on nights, so the ironing pile just kept growing. Chris collects on a Tuesday morning and it is back Wednesday, pressed and folded, before I have even noticed it gone. It has genuinely given us our Sunday evenings back.”
“Four kids means four sets of school uniform, and I had completely given up. The 20-item bundle covers our week almost exactly. Everything comes back better pressed than I ever managed, and the price has not moved once.”
“New baby, no sleep, and a mountain of washing. A friend recommended Chris and the 10% off first order tipped it. Six months on it is the one household job I no longer think about. Worth every penny for the head space.”
“Straightforward, honest and always on time. I asked for a bigger bundle one week with no notice and it was no trouble at all. The extra items were charged exactly as quoted — no surprises on the bill, which I appreciate.”
Local businesses
Salons, kitchens and small teams on weekly accounts with a fixed collection day and monthly invoicing.
“Six stylists, six sets of blacks, every single week. It comes back sorted and labelled by name so the girls just grab theirs. One invoice at the end of the month and I never have to think about it. Best decision I made for the salon.”
“As a chef my whites take a hammering and I could never get the collars right. They come back properly crisp every week. Chris also spotted a seam starting to go on one jacket and let me know before it became a problem.”
Bedding, express & occasion work
The one-off and seasonal jobs — holiday let changeovers, last-minute interviews and outfits for an event.
“Three beds in this house and I have never once got a duvet cover looking right. Chris does the lot now. Everything comes back pressed flat and folded so neatly it goes straight onto the shelf, and changing the beds has turned into a five-minute job.”
“I had an interview at short notice and my only decent suit had been folded in a case for a fortnight. Chris collected it at nine and had it back by early evening, looking sharper than when I bought it. I got the job as well.”
“My daughter's prom dress was chiffon and I was terrified of ruining it. Chris steamed it rather than pressing it, brought it back to the door herself and talked me through how to store it until the night. It looked absolutely perfect.”
“My mum is eighty-four and struggles with a heavy iron now. Chris is patient, chats to her on the doorstep, and always texts when she is on her way. It is the little bit of kindness that makes the difference, not just the ironing.”
Say something honest, good or bad
Reviews are how this business grows, but a complaint is more useful than a compliment. If something was not right, saying so directly means it gets fixed rather than quietly repeated next week.
