The Stroller Spa
Baby paraphernalia gets grubby quickly thanks to sticky little hands, and cleaning bulky pushchairs and car seats can be an arduous task. The Stroller Spa will collect the item that needs cleaning from you and drop it off at your chosen location, looking as good as new.

Tel: (056) 7280869. thestrollerspa.com


The Leather Doctor
While it’s true that leather gets better with age, there is a cut off point when it comes to discolouring, wear and tear and scratches. The Leather Doctor will do house visits to work their magic on larger items like sofas, but they are also willing to tackle your leather jackets or boots. If you think your leather goods are beyond repair put them to the test – they welcome a challenge.
