So, SO unbelievably expensive. Nice owner, but $51 for a jacket to be dry cleaned? No. Never again.

Great place with quality cleaning. Charles, the proprietor, is kind and conscientious. My items…read morecame back in great shape. Thank you, Charles.

I think this is my first Yelp review but I feel compelled to caution others before trusting Saber…read moreCleaners (C and M Custom Tailoring) with your time, money, and clothing. I dropped off 4 jackets on Friday, July 3rd for dry cleaning (with one small alteration for a hole in a jacket pocket). I was given a pickup date one week later, Friday July 10th. I arrived the following Tuesday, July 14th only to learn my items were not in the store despite the additional 4 days. After waiting for the gentleman behind the counter to place a few phone calls to locate my order, I was handed his cell phone and spoke with who I can only assume was the manager. I was told the jackets were still offsite due to one of the jackets being identified as "at risk" of being damaged, if dry cleaned. I found it inconsiderate that no one bothered to call me before making the trip to the store to learn for myself but honestly, not the end of the world. I was asked if I wanted them to dry clean it anyways and risk potential damage, or if I would instead wish for them to leave that jacket out and be given "store credit" for the dry clean purchase of that jacket. I responded clearly to please simply return the jackets - do not risk damage - and we will figure out the compensation (wasn't thrilled about having store credit pushed as the solution as I use dry cleaning services maybe once every 4-5 years and certainly would hesitate to be a return customer for this particular business given the experience so far). He agreed and told me the jackets would be available for pickup the next day. I received a call the next day, Wednesday, July 15th that my order had arrived and is ready for pickup. I returned to the store Monday, July 20th where the manager accepted my ticket, hung my jackets on the rack for me to take, and began what looked to be the steps of issuing a store credit. During that time, I instantly noticed the jacket "not dry cleaned" was in fact damaged due to significant bleeding red ink from the patches onto the white fabric. I immediately pointed this out to the manager, who quickly became defensive almost to the point of gaslighting me that I should have expected it. To be clear: I was asked directly if I wanted to assume the risk of damage and dry cleaning it after they identified the jacket as a risk. I told them clearly "no" and now I can't help but wonder if they had already damaged the item and had hoped I would have said "yes" to free them of responsibility. But I will never know for sure. I was told "We don't know it's going to do that until we do it." So is it then my mistake that I trusted their expertise to know EXACTLY that? In fact, that would seem to me to be the point of the hesitation expressed in the earlier phone call. His tone was stern, defensive, and at times aggressive or belittling. I feel confidently that he had no intention of discussing the damaged item with me had I not forced the conversation, and he would have been more than content for me to walk right out his door unknowingly. I do not own a business, but I've been a patron to many in 30+ years. I would not have returned either way but wouldn't have taken the time to write this review had any consideration to me as a customer been given. A recommendation? How about a phone call when you noticed the damage, "Hello sir. We've received your jackets back and I'm very sorry to inform you that one of the jackets was damaged in the process. While these things rarely happen, you trusted us with your valuables and we at Saber take that responsibility very seriously. Please come in so that we can look over the jacket together and come to an agreement on how we can make this right. Your business is important to us." Instead, I was met with rudeness and indifference. Saber provided a cash refund of $27 for the dry cleaning, and that's it. Sadly, the damaged item is vintage and not easily or cheaply replaceable. Two of the other three jackets appear fine, including the hole in the pocket. A third, however, wasn't cleaned to satisfaction (will share picture). I immediately took the damaged jacket next door to Jones Dry Cleaning to see if it was fixable but was unfortunately told no. There are many, many dry cleaners in the Charlotte area. I encourage any curious reader to strongly consider them over Saber.

Excellent service and no issues whatsoever. Cost of dry cleaning has gone up everywhere so can't…read moreblame TLC. Friendly owner and son.

DO NOT use TLC Cleaners. They are deceptive, rude, and the owner is nasty. I brought in a sofa…read morecover and cushion covers into TLC as they are an "organic" cleaner, no chemicals or fragrances. This is extremely important to me. I was quoted by a young gal working there that it would be approximately $92, but it may be more. And yes, no fragrances or chemicals. I said okay, if it's much more, will they call me, as the couch is not worth all that much money. She said they would. I never got a call and went to pick up my cover and cushions a week later. Upon pickup, I was charged $180. I asked to speak to the owner, and the owner's son was available. He apologized and admitted they should have called me, but that was it! I asked for a minimum of a 20% discount, which was still not enough due to their error in customer service, and was told he could not do that. I then waited for his father, the owner, to come back. This man was rude and disrespectful. He proceeded to YELL at me how much a cleaning like this costs. He would not make any concessions. He walked away from me, and I continued to talk with the son, who kept his composure. The father then came RAGING from the back, saying 20% off and get out in a very threatening manner. I paid $144 and left as I was so upset at the encounter. To top it all off, when I got home and unzipped the bag, the cover and cushion covers were in, they were FULL of Fragrance. I am now in the process of rewashing everything! DO NOT USE TLC for many reasons!
