About
Purity Cleaners & Laundry occupies a storefront at 183 North Livermore Avenue, on the block that runs north from First Street through the heart of downtown Livermore. Giselle De Sousa is listed as owner, and chamber records date the business to 1996. Before you rely on any of this, note that the listing was drawn from public business records and is still awaiting the owner's confirmation.
Cleaning and laundry services
A downtown dry cleaner in the Tri-Valley typically handles suits, dresses, coats and other garments that cannot go through a home machine, along with wash-and-fold laundry by the pound, pressing and starching for shirts, and household items such as comforters, drapes and table linens. Wedding-gown cleaning and preservation, leather and suede care, and alterations and repairs are common add-ons; some shops do them on site and others send them out.
Turnaround for standard dry cleaning is usually two to three days, with faster service on request for an extra charge. Shirts on hangers or folded, and whether the shop uses a solvent-based or a wet-cleaning process, are the kind of details worth asking about if you care about a particular fabric.
Dropping off and picking up
Point out stains when you drop off and say what caused them; the counter will note it on the ticket. Check pockets. Ask about the turnaround for your items, whether same-week alterations are possible, and what the policy is on lost or damaged garments. Many cleaners offer a pickup-and-delivery route for regular customers and a text or phone alert when an order is ready; ask if either is available. Keep your ticket.
Downtown and the Tri-Valley
Customers come from Livermore and from Pleasanton, Dublin, San Ramon, Sunol, Tracy, Danville and Fremont. North Livermore Avenue is a short walk from the downtown parking garages and the Livermore transit centre, and a few minutes from the First Street exit off I-580.

Common questions
Typical for this type of businessHow long does dry cleaning take?
Two to three days is typical; some shops offer next-day or same-day service for a surcharge. Ask when you drop off, especially for items needed for a specific event.
What if a garment is damaged or lost?
Ask about the shop's policy before leaving valuable items. Most cleaners follow industry guidelines that reimburse based on the garment's age and replacement value, not the original price.
Does the shop offer pickup and delivery?
Many Tri-Valley cleaners run delivery routes for regular customers. Ask whether the service exists, which days it covers Livermore neighbourhoods and whether there is a minimum order.
Can they clean a wedding dress?
Ask whether gown cleaning and preservation are done on site or sent to a specialist, how long it takes and whether the dress is returned in a sealed preservation box.
