Dry cleaner recommendation please

Does anyone have a recommendation for an excellent dry cleaner.? I had an accident while wearing a favourite coat, and have just got it back from the dry cleaners still covered in stains, and where attempts to remove stains have added more stains without removing the existing stains. They've made such an awful job of it I don't trust them to put it right so will not be going back to them, but would like to rescue the coat if at all possible.

Any suggestions?

Thanks so much

I suggest you visit Ahmet at Smart'n Up Drycleaners at 1 Hazelwood Court, Hazelwood Lane, Palmers Green N13 5EY....020 8886 6385.....

Has the coat still got a dry cleaning label inside attached to it? In addition to the coat you need to take some information with you:

What was spilt on the coat? ;the name of the material from which the coat is made and the name and address of the dry cleaning company you used previously so that Ahmet can identify what fluid they have used.

The coat may have been irrevocably damaged It could end up with holes

Sorry to appear to be sexist, but like a LADIES hairdresser did the dry cleaner do a patch test? Did they use fresh fluid or was it mixed with other clothing....like putting coloureds is a white wash?

You may need to go to JEEVES OF BELGRAVIA. See Evening Standard article

Thanks so much for your detailed reply Donald. On the advice of some neighbours I took the coat to Palace Gates Dry Cleaners, Palace Gates Road N22. They did a great job, and the coat looks nearly as good as new.
