Alexandra has proudly made Stevenage her home since moving from London in 2021 to grow her young family. She and her husband bought their first house here and have since welcomed their two boys—creating a life surrounded by close friends, many of whom followed them from London after falling in love with the area. Today, Stevenage truly feels like the heart of her community.
With a background ranging from shop manager to cleaner, nanny and construction assistant, Alexandra brings real-life experience, organisation and a strong work ethic to her ironing service. She enjoys spending her spare time with her family—cycling, bowling, exploring soft plays and enjoying local parks.
Known for her commitment and attention to detail, Alexandra delivers reliable ironing services in Stevenage using professional equipment including a steam generator and high-quality ironing table. Fully trained and supported by The Hot Iron, she takes pride in producing beautifully pressed results that customers can count on.
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 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.
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.
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.
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.
