I had a great experience working with the Bridgestone team! They’re incredibly professional and communicative throughout the process, and the end result was fantastic. Highly recommend!

Thank you so much for this great feedback we appreciate your business and hope to see you again.
My wedding gown returned mostly clean, except for a few makeup stains. The manager reached out afterward, and was able to provide a partial refund. I appreciate that they were so quick and helpful with rectifying the mistake.

Thank you for your understanding in this matter and thank you for your patronage..
I got married in the rain and the bottom of my dress was covered in mud by the end of the night. I wasn’t optimistic it could be cleaned but Bridgestone made it look good as new!

Thank you so much Emma for these amazing feedback.
Any questions?
Bridgestone did a great job - they were very kind and my wedding dress was tailored beautifully.
Response from the Vendor on 02/08/2023
Thank you so much for this amazing review.
Bridgestone cleaned and beautifully preserved a custom silk 18th-century period gown that I had made for a big costume party. The party was a bit wild so the dress got pretty dingy at the hem and Bridgestone made it as good as new again!
On another note I can very strongly recommend their tailor Pablo. He ALWYAS finds a way to figure out even the weirdest repairs and adjustments for me. I love him!

Thank you Jessica, We are so appreciative of the opportunity to restore your gown and for you taking the time out to post this review. Best Regards Ola.
Pablo is an extremely talented tailor, and is generally lovely to deal with. I had a very complex job for him, a floor length sleeved sequin dress that had to be tailored by hand and he did an absolutely beautiful job. He also squeezed me in for a last minute hem to another dress that I need in a few days time. Truly would recommend him to anyone I know. He has raw talent, an amazing eye and I feel very lucky to have found him! Will recommend to all my friends.

Thank you so much for the review we appreciate your business.
If you’re looking for a sign to work with Bridgestone Cleaners, this is it!
I can’t tell you how Ola and the team have helped decrease my wedding stress. Their professionalism, expertise, and expediency are just top-notch – there’s a reason why they are the best around.
I sent an inquiry on the Bridgestone Cleaners website because I had a new - but vintage - wedding dress. I asked if they could clean it and how much time it would take because I had to get it altered first. Ola CALLED me immediately and said not only could they clean the dress, they could alter it too! He was also friendly and courteous and made me feel comfortable trusting them with this very important garment. As brides know, deciding where to get your wedding dress altered can be a stressful (and expensive) decision, but I read the reviews and was impressed by all the feedback.
Finally, I got to the DUMBO location and can confirm that the reviews were accurate. The venue is clean, the staff was helpful, and Pablo, the tailor, is A MAGICIAN! Not only did he finish my dress alteration sooner than expected, but he also got it to fit me perfectly on the FIRST TRY. I thought there’d be a least two fittings. Nope, just one and done. Also, the dress was cleaned beautifully, and it looks good as new!
Another impressive thing about Bridgestone Cleaners is the communication. They regularly send you a text with the links to payment, online tracking, or overall updates. It made me feel at ease and taken care of – and isn’t that the type of support we need from vendors during wedding season? I am now waiting for my dress to be delivered to my residence (they do that too!), and I can’t wait to work with them again to preserve the dress after the wedding in October or to just stop by there for regular tailoring or cleaning services. Thank you, Bridgestone Team!

Thanks Shara it feel so great reading this wonderful review. We so much appreciate the time and efforts you put into writing this kind words and helping our small business it goes a long way, Servicing clients like you as been a joy to us. Once...
again thank you again. Ola.
After a fantastic wedding day, I was looking for a reputable business to clean my Monique L'huillier designer wedding gown. I was nervous about the state of the dress due to the rain on the day and the stains I had acquired. Stains included dirt and water marks all along the bottom of the dress/train from dragging on the rainy New York streets, accidental pasta stains from dinner, what seemed to be bird stains (lol) from the steps of the NYPL, and movement in and out of vehicles.
I researched online and came across Bridgestone Cleaners, conveniently located in DUMBO, Brooklyn. I was impressed with their reviews and how high the business was ranked. I called to inquire about cleaning services and was introduced to Ola, the Gown Preservation specialist. From the minute I inquired, Ola was prompt with his responses, professional, helpful, and courteous. I knew that my dress was in great hands and decided to proceed.
Fast forward to after the cleaning and...WOW! Like a whole new dress! I couldn't believe my eyes. No dirt. No stains AT ALL. Just a pristine wedding gown!
Since I had decided to go ahead with preservation as well, I wanted to see the dress before they boxed it up. Ola took care in presenting my dress and putting my mind at ease. Let me just say, I am one HAPPY BRIDE. I truly thought I had damaged my dress forever, but rest assured with Bridgestone Cleaners' 40 years in the business, you are in wonderful hands! They will take ultra care with your precious garment.
Thank you OIa and team for your professionalism, courtesy, and A+ service. Will be recommending to all future brides.

Response from the Vendor on 05/10/2022
Thank you so much for the feedback we really appreciate your business and hope to see you again.
I didn’t have my dress cleaned after my wedding, so I finally brought it to Bridgestone after six years. I was amazed at how clean the dress was after so much time. They did an incredible job and even had the dress ready several days before expected. The entire process was completely seamless and I’m so happy with the result.

I had Bridgestone clean my wedding dress and they were super professional and easy to work with. Highly recommend for sensitive items like wedding dress, they are the only cleaners in the neighborhood I would trust.

Wow - Bridgestone was fantastic! My wedding dress was FILTHY, and I waited nearly half a year to get it cleaned, but Bridgestone worked their magic and the dress looks brand new! Working with Ola was so easy, and she took great care to always keep me updated with progress! Look no further for gown cleaning, 100% recommend Bridgestone!

Ola was amazing getting my wedding dress cleaned with only a weeks notice, thanks to the whole team for taking care of a fragile vintage dress!!
Response from the Vendor on 04/08/2022
Thank you so much for this amazing review and congratulations on the big day. We hope to see you soon.
The wedding planning process is stressful, and reliable and amazing vendors can be hard to come by. Bridgestone Cleaners helped eliminate a HUGE stress with my wedding dress! I got it at a Kleinfeld sample sale and needed it cleaned and bustled. Ola and the rest of the staff were super helpful and attentive and made me feel at ease leaving my dress with them. They even delivered it for me when cleaning and alterations were done! I can’t recommend them enough. If you are a New York City bride, look no further than here for any of your dress needs!
Response from the Vendor on 03/07/2022
This is an amazing review we so much appreciate the feedback and most of all spreading the word to the entire community. We thank you so much for your business and hope to see you soon.
All I can say is wow! Thank you Bridgestone Cleaners. I called in a panic after realizing the sample sale dress I bought looked very different outside the fitting room… as in it looked like someone had gotten a spray tan and then rolled around in my dress. Bridgestone picked up the dress from my house, had a fantastic online tracking system, communicated with me every step of the way, was extremely transparent about pricing, and then dropped off a beautifully cleaned dress back at my apartment. What a relief.
It felt like they actually cared about my dress and experience, and not that it was just another garment to clean. I’ll also be using them for alterations since their process is so easy and affordable

Finally found the best tailing! Pablo (and everyone) is amazing! They fixed my MOH dress that was huge on me. I also trusted them with a bridal gown as well and it came out beautifully! Clean, nice and I will only come back here for my dresses! Love this place!
Bridgestone did an amazing job at restoring and cleaning my wedding dress, since I purchased it sample sale. It looked brand new and was ready to wear for my wedding day. They also provided alterations for my reception dress. They have great customer service with the client in mind.
Response from the Vendor on 08/12/2021
Emma, it was our pleasure to play a role in your big day. We are so appreciative of the review and look forward to seeing you soon in the future. Congratulations.
I can’t recommend Bridgestone Cleaners enough. Pablo saved me when I needed 2 dresses altered in a pinch. He is so professional, kind and genuinely interested in making sure you are happy with the alterations. He was awesome, definitely take your alterations here!! Ola and the rest of the staff was also super friendly and helpful. Thanks!!

Thank you Melissa. We so appreciate you choosing our service and taking the time to post here. You made our day! Hope to see you soon. Have a great summer.
I’ve come to Bridgestone in DUMBO time after time for special clothing alterations and tailoring with Pablo. He always does an excellent job! I’ve had vintage and delicate pieces mended or altered, and they always come out great. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Thank you Bridgestone!
Response from the Vendor on 06/24/2021
Thank you Aigana. We are so grateful for your business and testimonial. It truly makes our day. Pablo was so happy to see this as well. All the best and see you soon.
This is really best team for dry-cleaning and tailoring. They are extremely meticulous and professional. I have been trusting them for the last 2 years for all my luxury fashion and delicate fabrics. They have revived exceptional dresses that got tired-out with time. Pablo, the tailor, has magic hands and an eye to ensure that each garment fits you perfectly and Ola will always make sure you get the best service.
Response from the Vendor on 06/08/2021
Thank you Belinda! We are so happy to serve you and appreciate your continued loyalty to our small business.
Pablo, the tailor, is unbelievably talented, very warm and accommodating, and delivers seriously high quality work. I have these shirts that I love - high-fashion and typically one of a kind pieces with turn of the century fabrics - he helps tailor them to fit with an exemplary level of precision and care. Can’t say enough good things about Pablo.
Response from the Vendor on 04/28/2021
Thank you Louis for taking the time out to review our service. This goes such a long way in helping us grow. With respect to Pablo's work we simply could not agree more. He has been a committed team member for the better part of a decade and we...
are so lucky to have him. Ill be sure to show him this review as it will absolutely make his week. All the best. See you soon.
Bridgestone Cleaners was so great. Throughout the entire process they were understanding, professional, and communicative. Everyone I talked to was extremely warm and understanding. They updated me on how the cleaning and preservation was going and alerted me to anything in particular they were cleaning up. When it was all finished, they even delivered my huge dress back to me!
The preservation looks great and I highly recommend Ola and team.

I chose Bridgestone for my wedding gown dry cleaning and preservation. Their gown preservation specialist Ola provided excellent service and communication throughout the whole process. Their text message updates on the status of my dress and pickup/delivery service made the experience super convenient. I would recommend their services!

Thanks Michelle for trusting us with your Gown. Appreciate you taking the time out to post this as it truly helps us out so much. Hope to see you soon in our stores.
What a great place. We were married at the start of 2020 before the world shut down - but they time I was able to go and have my husbands suit and my dress cleaned - let's say they sat around for a long time.
But Ola - was wonderful - my dress was cleaned and preserved - and my husbands suit was well maintained.
We were THRILLED - and cannot be more thankful.

Thank you Anastasiia so much for trusting us with your gown and taking the time out to review our service. Ola is a great team member who we are so lucky to have. We are glad you agree.
The Bridgestone Cleaners team was very professional through the entire wedding gown preservation process. They left no stone unturned when it came to finding spots on my dress that could have yellowed and deteriorated given more time, and spots that could have been easily overlooked if not put in the care of the right professionals. I truly thank them for their thoughtful and thorough care with my dress so I may have it for years to come.
