Barbara Ormrod
Watinda did a brilliant job, collected my ironing when she said she would and returned it when she said she would all beautifully packaged ready to be put away, she also would have hung it on hangers if I’d have given them to her, I would have no hesitation in recommending Watinda to anyone.
Alexandra Gerrard
Watida is lovely! Easy to organise drop off and collection too
Don Steele
Watida is delightful to deal with, polite and courteous at all times. Items are dealt with promptly and at very reasonable prices. I have never been able to get my ironing to look that good. My trousers looked brand new. You can be sure I will be back again on a regular basis. I can't give a better recommendation than that.

As The Hot Iron's agent in Cressington, Watida is building a reputation for quality, consistency, and genuine care in this quiet corner of South Liverpool. A devoted wife and mother of three, she brings the same high standards to her ironing that she maintains at home — where her love of order and cleanliness is something she would describe as a healthy obsession.
She values family time deeply, spending her days off on countryside walks with her children and creating the kind of shared moments that matter most. That same warmth and care for the people around her translates directly into the service her customers receive.
Fully trained and supported by The Hot Iron, Watida uses professional equipment including a steam generator and specialist ironing table. Her meticulous standards, warm personality, and consistent delivery make her a natural fit for The Hot Iron's local, personal approach to ironing services in Cressington.
Services
Free Collection & Delivery
Free for orders over £20 — a small fee applies for smaller orders. Regular weekly collections are available — set up once and forget about it. Drop-off is also available by prior arrangement.
Shirts are returned within 48 hours as standard; faster turnaround is available on request. Payment on delivery by bank transfer or cash.
Ironing
Ironing is priced per item — simple, clear, and often better value. Shirts, dresses, formal trousers and jumpsuits are hung as standard; T-shirts and other garments can be hung on request. Folded items like polos and jumpers are neatly returned in shop-style folds.
All hung items are returned in biodegradable, reusable protective covers. We’re happy to follow special requests — trouser creases, specific folds, hanging preferences — just let us know.
Bed Linen
We iron duvet covers, fitted sheets, flat sheets and pillowcases — cot through to super king. Everything is pressed and returned neatly folded, ready to go straight onto the bed within 48 hours.
Please note: we iron duvet covers and bed linen — not the duvets themselves.
Wedding & Special Occasions
We handle wedding dresses, bridesmaid dresses, suits, formalwear and occasion garments for weddings, graduations, christenings, funerals and black-tie events. Everything is expertly pressed and returned on hangers in biodegradable protective covers.
For wedding dresses, please contact us before booking — dresses vary greatly in fabric and construction, and we’ll confirm whether the gown is suitable for our service. For full bridal party orders, we recommend booking at least one week in advance.
Asian Garments
We provide specialist ironing for saris, salwar kameez, lehengas, sherwanis, churidars, dupattas and other South Asian and Asian garments. Each piece is assessed individually before pressing — steam temperature is matched to the most delicate fabric present, and embellishments are carefully worked around rather than pressed directly.
For heavily embellished pieces — wedding lehengas, heavily beaded saris or hand-embroidered occasion wear — please contact us before booking.
