Dry cleaners in Rochester

On the High Street, around the cathedral and castle, and out to Star Hill, Delce and Borstal. Wedding and occasion pieces are looked at before we start, alterations are done in house, and we collect across ME1. Collection and drop-back are free on orders of £45 or more.

Oceans Green is the dry cleaner Rochester households use for suits, wedding wear, everyday garments and repairs. The workshop is on the Gillingham waterfront, east of Rochester; driving over via the A2 or the river road is typically about fifteen minutes off-peak.

The High Street, the streets around the cathedral and castle, Star Hill, Delce, Borstal and the terraces down to the river all use the same shop. People send work here when they want a clean that leaves a garment softer and fresher, or a hem or zip done while we clean the same piece.

Wedding wear and occasion pieces

Wedding dresses and structured occasion wear wait for a look before we start. Beads, sequins, silk and mixed linings all change the job, so we agree a method and a date with you first, and the hand finishing has the time it needs. That conversation is easier at the counter than on the back seat of a car, which is why most Rochester customers either bring the dress in or have us collect it rather than driving it across town.

Do you collect from Rochester?

Yes, anywhere in ME1. Collection and drop-back are free on orders of £45 or more. Book a collection and we will confirm the day for your postcode. For a wedding dress or a piece you are anxious about, say so when you book and we will handle it separately from the household bags.

Common questions

Is eco dry cleaning safe for silk and suits?

Yes. We set the detergent, movement and temperature for that fabric, not a one-size clean. Silk and suits are the pieces a home wash would ruin.

We look at the garment with you first, and if the fibre, lining or trim needs a different method, we say so then.

Can you clean a wedding dress?

Yes, once we have looked at it with you. We check hem dirt, champagne marks and veil fabric first, and because some beads and trims cannot be wet, the quote follows from that.

We agree the timescale then, so the hand finishing has the time it needs. Structured occasion wear waits for that look before we start.

Do you do alterations?

Yes. We take up hems, close split seams, replace buttons and zips, and take garments in or let them out, all in the same building as the cleaning. A button starts at £5.50, a standard zip at £21.50 and trouser shortening at £21.50, with 10% off when you have three things done. The full list is on the prices page.

We agree the work with you first and clean the garment afterwards, so a new hem comes back properly finished instead of pressed over the old crease. Making a garment from scratch is the one thing we do not do.

Can you replace a zip?

Yes. Bring the garment in so we can match the zip and tell you the turnaround before we start.

If the piece also needs a clean, we can do both as one job. You approve the work and the price before anything starts.
