Down & Feather Coat Cleaning
Down and feather-filled jackets, including Canada Goose, Moncler, The North Face, and other premium outerwear brands, require specialist care to preserve their thermal performance, structure, and comfort. These garments rely on finely balanced insulation created by trapped air within the down fill, meaning unsuitable solvents or cleaning processes can lead to clumping, reduced loft, and uneven distribution.
Our service is specifically designed to clean and restore down-filled outerwear.
Specialist Down Cleaning
Standard cleaning methods don't work for down. We use a regulated process built specifically for it.
Down and feather garments cannot be treated using standard cleaning methods. They require carefully regulated processes to ensure the filling is thoroughly cleaned, evenly maintained, and structurally preserved.
Our process is designed to:
- Remove dirt, body oils, and general soiling
- Clean effectively without compromising down integrity
- Preserve insulation and thermal efficiency
- Prevent clumping and uneven fill distribution
- Restore freshness, loft, and overall comfort
The use of inappropriate solvents or incorrect cleaning techniques can cause the down filling to clump, significantly reducing loft, insulation performance, and the overall functionality of the garment.
Drying & Restoration Process
Drying is a critical stage in the treatment of down garments. Incorrect drying methods can cause feather adhesion and uneven distribution, affecting both warmth and fit.
We utilise a controlled drying and restoration process designed to carefully recondition the down fill, restoring loft and ensuring the garment returns to its original shape, weight balance, and thermal efficiency.
Odour & Hygiene Removal
Down-filled garments naturally absorb moisture, perspiration, and environmental odours over time, particularly with regular outdoor use. Our process effectively removes embedded odours and bacteria, restoring cleanliness throughout the internal structure of the garment.
Protection of Fabric & Finish
Many down jackets incorporate delicate outer fabrics, water-resistant coatings, and technical finishes. Our cleaning methods are selected to be fully compatible with these materials, ensuring the garment's appearance, functionality, and performance characteristics are maintained.
Warranty Care & Manufacturer Compliance
Certain premium down garments are supplied with manufacturer warranties, including lifetime guarantees in some cases. Our cleaning procedures are carefully controlled and designed to comply with manufacturer care requirements, ensuring that warranty coverage remains unaffected when garments are processed through our service.

“My Canada Goose coat was covered in mould before I took it to Ash due to damp in my property. He talked me through the step by step process and was realistic with the results. My coat was returned in amazing condition. I couldn't be happier. 10/10 professionalism.”

“Brilliant service! I took my down coat there which had been in storage and got some mould on it. They treated and cleaned it in a few days and the coat looks brand new. Highly recommend.”
