Company Profile

Brothers Cleaners, a family-owned business in Raleigh, NC, has been serving the community since 1916. Founded by German immigrant Emil Hilker, the business passed to his twin sons, Jerry and Jim, and later to the third generation, twins Tom and Bob Hilker, who have modernized operations over the past 40 years. Today, fourth-generation member Ben Hilker serves as Customer Service Manager, ensuring quality in dry cleaning, alterations, mending, and damage restoration. We offer free pickup and delivery. Located near Five Points and the North Hills area, we provide convenient service to neighborhoods like Mordecai, Oakwood, and Cameron Village. For Raleigh residents facing common water damage issues—such as basement flooding, garage water intrusion, bathroom overflows, and snowmelt damage—our restoration team quickly extracts water, dries affected areas, and treats carpets and upholstery to prevent mold and stains. We combine technical expertise with a personal touch, helping our neighbors recover from unexpected water events while also handling everyday clothing care and repairs.

Questions and Answers

What types of clothing alterations and repairs do you offer?

We handle a full range of alterations, including hemming pants, shortening sleeves, taking in or letting out waistlines, and adjusting dress lengths. For repairs, we can mend torn seams, replace zippers, patch holes, and reinforce weak fabric. Our team works with all garment types, from casual wear to formal attire, ensuring a clean, durable finish.

How does your damage restoration process work for water-damaged carpets and upholstery?

When you call us after a water event—like a basement flood or bathroom overflow—we begin with extraction of standing water using industrial pumps and vacuums. Then we dry the area with high-powered air movers and dehumidifiers. For carpets and upholstery, we apply specialized stain treatment to remove dirt and contaminants, followed by deep cleaning to prevent mold and odors. We serve Raleigh homes quickly to minimize damage.

What should I do if my Raleigh home experiences snowmelt water damage in the garage?

First, remove any standing water with a wet/dry vacuum if safe. Then, contact us immediately—snowmelt can carry road salts and debris that stain concrete and seep into nearby carpets. We’ll extract the water, treat affected areas with stain-fighting solutions, and dry the space thoroughly. We’re familiar with Raleigh’s winter weather patterns and can respond promptly to prevent long-term issues.
