We have a lot of emotional specialties here at Meurice. Partially because we like doing different work than everyone else, partially for the thrill of a challenge, but always because its more rewarding to tackle a garment that really means something to someone. Clothing damaged by smoke, fire or water is among the most difficult [...]

Found this in our 72-year old store at University Place yesterday. I still can’t over the 2-letter, 5-digit phone number! According to Wikipedia these were adopted starting in the 1930s, but it’s hard to imagine an era when those were enough numbers for New York City. We’re certainly come a long way since whenever this [...]
Recently, Meurice was invited to help with the newest Extreme Home Makover on ABC — a project taking place in East Setauket on Long Island. Of course, we were happy to help (not mention excited to get out of the office). . Through our restoration division, CRDN of Metro NY, we’ll be cleaning the clothing [...]
Some of you may recall the iPad contest we sponsored just over a month ago. We entered all of our existing customers who referred a new client, and the new customers who had been referred by a friend in the contest. Then, we drew numbers in the office and our winner turned out to be [...]
Now that it finally looks like we may enjoy a complete week of temperatures over 70º, you’ve probably started to think about what to do with your heavy comforters, duvets and coverlets. . The bad news: That bedding isn’t going to fit in your miniature closet washer, and the oversized laundromat around the corner probably [...]

What’s worse than a stain? Well, lots of things. But when you’re the victim of an accidental spill, most of us want instant gratification. . What a lot of people don’t realize is that careless garment triage can actually make the situation far worse. By the same token, it’s easy to inadvertently shorten the lifespan [...]

There’s a certain pride in this town that comes with finding the best anything – from a hole-in-the-wall restaurant to a fantastic contractor. . Well, don’t think of Meurice as a best-kept secret. We’d rather have you tell all your friends from the rooftop! Just to keep referrals interesting, we’re going to give away a [...]
Being the clean freak that I am, my gym gear is constantly laundered. If I could, I’d wash my shirt halfway through a workout. But until recently, I’d completely overlooked the need to freshen up the shoes I wear to spin – until, that is, my housekeeper identified a terrible odor emanating from my spin [...]

Valid now through April 1st, 2010 It’s about time: spring is almost here. Cafes are rolling out sidewalk seating, “Empire State of Mind” is blaring from every delivery truck in Midtown and suddenly, the hottest fashion accessory is a tan. That means that it’s time for our annual rush of spring cleaning clients eager to [...]

We love to get thank you notes here in the office. It’s always unexpected and a great feeling to come across mail that’s both handwritten and thoughtful. Of course, it goes both ways — we at Meurice send maybe a thousand of our own thank-you notes every year.
