Shores Cleaners was founded in 1948 on English Rd. in High Point, N.C. Shores quickly gained the reputation of quality and caring service from the local clientele. In 1982, Shores Cleaners was purchased by the Edwards' family. The name was changed to Shores Fine Dry Cleaning to reflect the Edwards's vision and Shores reputation for cleaning specialty and couture garments, and wedding gowns. Many customers used to drive from Winston-Salem and Greensboro to experience the difference. This encouraged us to open locations in these cities so we could serve our discriminating clientele more conveniently.

The rugs in your home represent a significant investment. Shores Fine Dry Cleaning wants to ensure that they stay clean and in the best possible condition. Vacuuming alone doesn't clean your rugs. Allergens, dust mites, sand, dirt and hair are all trapped in your rug fibers. Regular rug cleaning ensures that all of these are removed prolonging the life and beauty of your rug. Each rug is carefully hand-inspected for tears, holes, dye fade, abrasions and pet contamination. Plus we test all dye colors for stability prior to cleaning.

Most window treatments should be professionally cleaned every 2-3 years and down items at least once a year, depending on your personal habits and the environment in your home or office. Regular vacuuming your curtains and dust ruffles each month, with a soft-bristled attachment, will remove surface dust between cleanings. Furnace dust, airborne particles and cooking fumes deposit on fabrics and penetrate fibers causing fading and discoloration. These impurities, which are not all removed by vacuuming, shorten the life of your household items, contribute to premature tearing and dry rot, and compromise your considerable investment.
