What happened to it? / It went through the wash and came out wrong

A stuffed animal that came out of the wash wrong

This is the one where a second go makes it permanently worse, and it is the reason more than one repairer in this list will ask what you have already tried. Matting can often be brought back. A toy that has been through a hot cycle twice usually cannot.

Same checks, lower down the order. Where they are and how you hand it over matter more than our ordering does, so both are here.

Who we ruled out for this, and why

11 of the 108 are listed on this site and are deliberately not above. Ruling somebody out is a claim, so here is each one with the reason, and you can disagree with it.

  • Works through your insurer after a fire or a flood, and invoices the claim. There is no way to hire them directly

Questions people ask

How many repair shops can restore matted or flattened fur?
97 of the 108 we hold in the United States could take this on, and 11 could not. Every one of them is named on this page, including the ones we ruled out and why. Across both countries we have read 185 businesses in total, so if you have seen a bigger number quoted somewhere, that is the one.
What does it cost?
Cleaning only: $10-$200, from 9 published prices. One small thing: $10-$50, from 11 published prices. All read from repair shops' own public pages in August 2026, across 33 individual prices from 7 businesses. Most of this trade publishes nothing at all.
Will they insure it while they have it?
Almost certainly they have not said. Of every repair shop we have read in both countries, two have written anything down about losing or damaging an item. Nobody has been asked the question directly, including by us. Ask before you send anything you could not replace, and get the answer in writing.
