Book a PickupWater, chosen over solvent.
Most of the industry still leans on PERC, a harsh solvent your clothes carry home with them. Glenforest went a different way decades ago, becoming Toronto's first wet cleaning specialist: pure water, controlled to the degree, matched to each fibre.
Done properly, wet cleaning is kinder than conventional dry cleaning in every way that matters. Wool keeps its softness, silk keeps its light, and colors stay true. Our Miele certified equipment and six decades of hands make sure of it.
Every garment is cleaned in water and detergent matched to its fibre; there is no PERC in the building.
- Pressed and finished by hand
- Safe for skin and delicate fibres

Quiet praise, earned slowly.
“They have looked after my husband's shirts for years. Everything comes back exactly as it should, and the Tuesday pickup means I never have to think about it.”
“Brought in a silk dress with a stain I had given up on. It came back perfect, and with no chemical smell at all.”
“Reliable, kind, and clearly proud of the work. Friday pickup at our door has become one of my favourite routines.”
The Zachos family standard.
For over 60 years, the Zachos family has cleaned, pressed, and handed back this neighbourhood's wardrobes from the same corner at Yonge and Lawrence. We were Toronto's first wet cleaning specialist, and we still believe the proof of good work is in the garments themselves: they simply come back right, every time.
“May your worst problem be a stain on your clothes.”
