Professional Services in Cedar Park

Austin Shoe Hospital's expert menders have repaired men's and women's shoes and boots since 1906. Old, comfortable footwear gains renewed life at the shop with replaced heels and soles, saving patrons from outfitting old pumps with cardboard-box bottoms. Additionally, the cobblers skillfully repair luggage, handbags, belts, and briefcases with services ranging from zipper replacement to full dyeing and reconditioning.

The textile technicians at Village Cleaners purify wardrobes using a biodegradable solvent called DF-2000 Fluid. This hypoallergenic, eco-friendly solution is sensitive to the needs of fragile fabrics but still has the muscle to break down dirt, grime, and salad dressing around the collar. A fresh dose of solvent goes into each load, along with fresh soap and a brand new filter, to ensure that clothes emerge from the machine as clean as technologically possible and free of static, odor, and allergens.

But the process doesn’t stop there. Once clothes are clean, the staff will starch shirts if requested and replace any broken or missing buttons at no charge. A final inspection sees to it that no spot or stain escapes back into the world, and alteration, repair, and leather care tends to especially needy garments.

For each and every cycle, the Best Cleaners staff loads machines with fresh soap, eco-friendly solvents, and a new self-cleaning filter to ensure that lingering dirt is far from the fresh load. Using a biodegradable, hypoallergenic solvent designed to remove insoluble soil, the staff cleanses everything from delicate silk dresses to soft cotton shirts and stiff, sturdy blazers built with NFL-sized shoulder pads. During laundry services, the team puts clothes through a double wash cycle, sews new buttons onto shirts at no extra cost, and finishes with a starching process. And for customers who want to clean 100 or more garments, the company's drivers can also pickup and drop off loads within a reasonable radius of each location.

The experienced technicians at Hanger's Cleaners restore clothes to a clean, pressed state with hypoallergenic formulas and eco-friendly technology that keeps the environment as clean as the garments on their racks. To ensure that each piece of clothing is thoroughly freed from dirt, stains, and the spirits of department-store ghosts, staffers fill their self-cleaning laundry machines with new soap and a fresh filter before each wash and pay close attention to delicate silks and cottons during dry-cleaning treatments. The cleaners can also tackle larger household items such as sleeping bags and comforters, as well as leather, suede, and wedding gowns.

Theresa Bond Zelazny founded the Mobile Art Program (MAP) after seeing how the creation of artwork helped her mother reduce stress and anxiety during a six-month battle with colon cancer. Today, MAP works toward empowering seniors and people with disabilities through artistic expression, helping them cope with their situations, regain a sense of control in their lives, and develop interpersonal relationships. Instructors drive a VW station wagon to nine facilities throughout underserved areas of Austin every month and conduct art classes where participants learn about the colors, compositions, and brush strokes employed by artists such as Frida Kahlo and Vincent van Gogh and model their own works off of these techniques. Instructors bring all of the supplies necessary for each project, giving the participants experience with a variety of mediums. By creating art in group settings, seniors can simultaneously gain new skills, build communities of friends, and bolster their self-esteem. At least once a year, the organization also holds a mini exhibit in each assisted-living facility, where residents vote on their favorite pieces and everyone receives prizes.

Outfitted with a movie theater, playhouse, video games, and air hockey, Adventure Kids Playcare's daycare center boasts plenty of distractions for kids of all ages. CPR- and first-aid-certified supervisors ensure that play is safe and fair, and also engage kids with scheduled story time and group activities. Separate rooms for infants and toddlers keep youngsters at a safe distance from their elders, who are particularly vulnerable to the powerful x-rays that babies emit while teething.
