Surprisingly, not all dry cleaners offer complimentary button replacement for laundered shirts. Additionally, many do not offer alterations and reweaving. If you are accustomed to have your laundered shirts cleaned and pressed by your dry cleaner, you know that button replacement is essential. Not all buttons are created equal. The heat from ironing laundered shirts can weaken buttons causing them to crack or break. It is not fun to bring home a clean laundered shirt only to find buttons missing and or cracked. Be sure to check with your dry cleaner in the event you are not seeing missing buttons replaced. Although it may have just been missed, your dry cleaner should have a quality check process to help ensure any missing and cracked buttons are replaced.
