Frette, Sferra, Matouk, Pratesi, Hermès, Loro Piana — the linens and throws estate households rely on.
Why Alex's
Why Estate Households Choose Alex's
Thread count is not destroyed by use — it is destroyed by incorrect cleaning. Alex's exists so that never happens to yours.
Expert Stain Removal
From red wine on a damask runner to sunscreen on Sferra shams, our artisans remove stains with Alex's Soap and targeted techniques that protect delicate fibers and vibrant color.
Precision Hand-Finishing
Linens return pressed and crease-free, duvets lofted, throws soft and even — each piece hand-finished so it goes straight back on the bed, the table, or the sofa.
Eco-Friendly & Fabric-Safe
Biodegradable, hypoallergenic cleaning protects the fibers your family sleeps in — gentle on Egyptian cotton, linen, silk, cashmere, and down alike.
Whole-Home Care
Couture Care for Your Household Treasures
One pickup covers everything — from the master bedroom's top-of-bed to the dining room's table linens.
Fine Linens & Top-of-Bed
Frette, Sferra, Matouk, Pratesi, and Yves Delorme linens are cleaned gently and pressed to a hotel-crisp finish. Duvets and down comforters return fresh, fully lofted, and ready for the season.
Throws & Blankets
Cashmere throws from Hermès, Loro Piana, and Brunello Cucinelli — and heirloom blankets from Anichini and Scandia Home — receive the same no-felting, hand-finished care as fine knitwear.
The Rest of the Household
Decorative pillows and cushions, table runners, drapery, area rugs, and even sleeping bags — if it is fabric and it matters, Alex's Team cleans it. Estate-household volume is handled with discretion and flexible scheduling; see our pricing or schedule a pickup.

Common Questions
Household Items Cleaning FAQ
What household items does Alex's clean?
Duvets, down comforters, bed linens, shams, blankets, cashmere throws, decorative pillows and cushions, table linens and runners, drapery, area rugs, and sleeping bags — if it is fabric and it matters to your home, we care for it.
Can you handle oversized items like king duvets and large comforters?
Yes — oversized duvets, comforters, bedspreads, and blankets are a specialty. They are cleaned in dedicated equipment, never crowded, and returned fresh and fully lofted.
Is professional cleaning safe for designer linens like Frette and Sferra?
It is what they are made for — fine linens are woven to last generations when cleaned correctly. Alex's uses gentle, fabric-safe processes and hand-finishing that preserve the weave, the hand, and the color of luxury linens.
