7. GENERAL EXCLUSIONS
We exercise utmost care in cleaning and processing garments entrusted to us and use such processes which, in our opinion, are best suited to the nature and conditions of each individual garment. Nevertheless, we cannot assume responsibility for inherent weaknesses or defects in materials (such as sun fading on curtains) which may result in tears or the development of small holes in fabric that are not readily apparent prior to processing. Given the delicate nature of some leathers and suedes, all leather and suede garments are cleaned entirely at your own risk, and we do not accept any responsibility or liability for any damage or fading as a result of the dry-cleaning process.
Generally, we clean in accordance with the care label instructions. However and without prejudice to the foregoing, we would not be liable for:
(a) Any item which suffers color loss / shrinkage/ damage, during the cleaning process, where the manufacturer’s care label instructions have been adhered to;
(b) Any feather / down filled item;
(c) Any accessory attached to or contained within any item. An 'accessory' means (but is not limited to) belts, buckles, buttons, broaches, beading, painted logos, leather trims, furs, signs, zips, hoods, collars and inner linings;
(d) Any item which is damaged by any accessory on that item;
(e) Any ink marks left behind by our poly-marking label system;
(f) Any item that does not show cleaning instructions;
(g) Any item that has deliberate crinkles or creased effects on the fabric which are removed during our cleaning process;
(h) Any item with faulty adhesives or interfacing which leave a mark after cleaning;
(i) Any item which, due to wear and tear or due to its integral nature, is unable to withstand an industrial laundered or dry-cleaned process;
(j) Curtains, blinds (venetian, roman) household items (duvets, bedspreads, upholstery covers), leather and suede items;
(k) You are advised to check that your order is complete at the point of collection as no liability for missing items would attach to us once you have accepted same and our attendants have left;
(l) Any item that we consider a risk (this includes removal of stains)for which you were given a Customer Consent Form to authorize the processing of.
Please note that adhesives, defects and faults which were previously camouflaged in manufacture may become more apparent after the cleaning process, and although every care is taken, we cannot always disguise natural flaws or totally remove adhesives, or stretching techniques employed by the manufacturer. These items may 'age' after cleaning. All items are therefore only accepted by us for cleaning at your own risk.
8. COLLECTION OF GARMENTS
Whilst we shall make every possible effort to process garments within the prescribed time-frame we shall not be liable for delays.
We are not responsible for any loss after delivery to your doorman, concierge or other authorized person. If you are unable to pickup your delivered order within this time period (e.g. vacation, office transfer, etc.). Please inform us before the scheduled date of delivery in writing by post, email or telephone. We will keep it in our shop for an agreed period (Maximum 3 Months)
In the event that garments are not collected within ninety (90) days we reserve the right to dispose of them as we see fit and shall not be held liable for any loss that you may suffer in such an event.
9. CLAIMS
(i) Our Liability for any reason (including but not limited to lost or damaged items) shall not exceed ten (10) times our charge for cleaning that garment regardless of brand or condition;
(ii) If you believe the depreciated value of your garment/item exceeds 10 times our service charge, the value of the garment/item must be declared to our attendant at the time of collection in which case the garment/item will be serviced at 1/10th of the declared value of the item;
(iii) We will not be liable for any item(s) not collected more than 3 months after dropping-off such item(s) with us;
(iv) Any claim settled by us will be on condition that it is accepted by you as full and final settlement;
(v) We will not be liable for any damage which is not related to or caused by the cleaning process;
(vi) We will not be liable for any claim which is excluded under the General Exclusions paragraph above or if you haven’t followed the process for making a claim under the Customer Service paragraph above;
(vii) From these guidelines we would potentially compensate you once liability is proven by us, only once the age, original value and proof of purchase from you is clearly established. We do not replace old for new and therefore need to establish the age, state and condition of the item(s) prior to any compensation being paid out.
10. CUSTOMER SERVICE
Our Customer service desk is open 24 hours and in the unlikely event that you are not satisfied with any of our services, please notify us of any such complaints and return the item to the branch with the receipt within 48 hours from collecting your item please, ensuring it is returned unworn / unused with the original packaging. You will receive a Customer Service Form that must be fully completed. Failure to do so will invalidate any potential complaint.

We are able to provide dry cleaning service for all items of clothing, whether everyday wear or special garments such as formal wear.
Sometimes we try to wash and iron by ourselves just to reduce the cost or avoid going to the laundry for our garments. Even, just thinking about getting your clothes into your car can discourage you from getting a professional to handle your beloved clothes. This is why we are here. Just give us a call and in a twinkle of an eye, we are at your service. It is that simple. To make it ever simpler you can also order our services by logging into your account from your home, office, hotel, or care facility.
Ironing is considered as the most difficult task associated with the process of laundering. If you desire a lasting impression of your garments, this requires that you spend a bit of time most especially if you are without the right equipment.
All household items such as Bedding, Blanket, Curtain, Duvet, Mattress, Table Cloth, Table Mat, Teddy, Tie Backs, Towel etc. are carefully cleaned and returned to you within 48 to 72 hours. Our industrial machines can handle any type of items including large items. Our cleaning process includes an inspection from our quality control unit to ensure proper cleaning and care of any garment.
We've got Mothers in mind too!
Do you trust your dry cleaner enough to handle your wedding gown? Some times it pays to allow professional dry cleaners to handle your delicate materials with an assurance of absolute care. Just that you know, there is a special technique for dry cleaning a Wedding Gown and our team of experts with a great deal of experience are always ready to advice you on ways to preserve your gown.
Cleaning curtains is an effective way to refresh colour and texture affected by the accumulated dust and dirt, enhancing and brightening their setting.
Cleaning a duvet can be complicated. We recommend that duvets be cleaned every 6 months to prevent bed bugs, fungal spores and bacteria. Leaving this task to the professionals will eliminate the risk of asthma attacks and allergic reactions caused by dust mites. When you send your duvets to Ritman Laundry, be rest assured that all steps will be taken to return your duvets to you fresh and clean.
