LOCAL LAUNDRY HACKS AND TIPS

Laundry care in Kolkata, with its water quality and climate-related issues, requires fruitful ways to ensure your clothes remain fresh, clean, and in good condition. Here are some insider tips and hacks in order to manage the laundry work efficiently in the unique environment of Kolkata:

1. Managing hard water:

The water supply in Kolkata often contains mineral contents of high quality, which leads to hard water and its related challenges in laundry work. This can lead to mineral deposits on clothes which can cause stiffness in the clothes and look dull over time.

Tips to overcome hard water issues in laundry

• The deposits of mineral contents can be prevented by adding a half cup of white vinegar to the final rinse cycle. It can leave garments brighter and softer by removing the detergent residues. We always make sure that white vinegar is added to the final rinse cycle of clothes so that the impact of hard water can be prevented and the brightness and softness of the clothes can be improved.
• We believe that adding a water softener to the washing machine can help eliminate the mineral deposits on clothes due to hard water. We prefer using products such as specific washing machine-based water softener agents or Calgon to restrict mineral buildup and maximize the effectiveness of the detergents. This helps us improve the quality of dry-cleaning service.

2. Drying clothes in the Humid conditions of Kolkata

The presence of high humidity levels can be witnessed in Kolkata which makes the clothes drying process one of the biggest challenges. This can also lead to extended drying times and musty smells in clothes.

Tips to overcome clothes drying challenges due to humid weather in Kolkata

3. Stain removal and care:

Even their expectations regarding the stain removal from their clothes are not met properly by the laundry. So, we are here to give you some tips and tricks to help you overcome this issue.

Tips on effective stain removal and care of clothes

• You can blot the stain on the cloth with cold water quickly or you can apply a mixture of water and baking soda paste to the affected area to remove the coffee or tea stain. Then the affected area on the cloth needs to be rinsed properly before washing. Sometimes, we also use the same method in Laugh-O-Laundry to remove this type of stain and ensure high-quality dry-cleaning service.

• To move the oil stain, sprinkle the cornstarch or baking soda on the oil stain and leave the cloth for 15-20 minutes can be an effective way. Then the cloth needs to be brushed off and cleaned properly.
• A paste needs to be made by mixing baking soda as well as lemon juice to apply it to the area of stain. Then the cloth needs to be left for 30 minutes before washing so that the oil stain can be removed easily. We also follow this trick to remove the stains from the clothes so that we can meet the expectations for dry cleaning services of our customers as fulfilling customer demand is our top priority.

4. Preserving the quality of fabric:

Preserving the quality of cloth fabrics becomes difficult for laundries due to the poor understanding of the fabric quality and the perfect ways to protect the quality of fabric.

Tips on keeping the fabric quality intact

• We always try our best to ensure the perseverance of the fabric quality by washing the colored and delicate garments with cold water. This method helps us in preventing color fading and shrinking.
