Tailor Alteration Specialist

This business provides an excellent service! I brought a holiday dress in
to have tailored and it fit me perfectly. They were friendly and welcoming,
I was given a quote for the alternation beforehand, and they do exceptional work,
pleasant experience all around!

Never tell my mother but I ripped her wedding dress. I tore the lace by the neck and freaked out as her dress will be displayed at my wedding. They were able to replace the 30 yr old lace with almost an exact match and unless my mother follows me on Unilocal she will never be the wiser. Nice people and decent prices. It took a few weeks so don’t wait until the last minute or you might be stuck.

My daughter’s wedding dress was delivered late, and was a size smaller than expected. We needed to find a good alterations place that could handle a relatively fast turn-​around time. What might have been a disaster, turned into a fairytale reality thanks to the couple at Alterations Specialist. The dress was completely transformed, with meticulous detail! A gorgeous, beaming bride the result! The price was reasonable and we will definitely be going back!

They replaced a zipper on a pair of khaki’s and patched a 3″ tear in the sleeve of one of my suit jackets from the inside (damn cat nearly ruined a great suit!). The zipper was flawless, and I was thrilled at the quality of the patch considering it was a blue pin-​striped suit and you wouldn’t notice the affected area unless you knew to look. The prices were completely reasonable especially compared against the cost of a new pair of pants and a new suit.

Great quality — always tell you you the price before hand. The only tailor I trust.
Very friendly family feel.

Seriously! The review below me is right.
They do great work– and are probably the specialists when it comes to alterations in the area. Every time I come in, they seem to be friendly, and have a steady, happy, clientele. However, I spent $ 75 on alterations because it is «alot of work» to alter suits.
Fine, fine. A good suit needs a good tailor. FML for having such an oddly shaped body.
HOWEVER, when I spend THAT MUCH for alterations, the least you can f*cking do is IRON it and not return it so wrinkled that it is unwearable! C’mon people.

I went in to have my Halloween costume brought in because it was a little large, it included a white button up, vest, and a skirt I planned on wearing a tutu under.
The husband was super cute and hummed as he did the alteration pinning. I felt VERY comfortable as a young woman in there despite an older man pinning and tucking around my waist and chest.
He ended up asking about doing more than I thought I needed, but he was definitely right as he pointed them out. We ended up deciding to attach my tutu underneath the skirt instead of wearing them separate, making the neck on the button up shirt tighter, the wrist cuffs smaller, tightening some elastic, replacing 2 buttons, and adding darts to tighten the chest area. This sounded great until we got to the counter and the wife said it would cost $ 110! Holy smokes!
I told her I spent very little on the costume so it didn’t seem worth it. She said «I don’t care what it cost you, it’s a lot of work». I said I was sorry but I couldn’t spent that, so she offered to do it for $ 70. I said it was still too much because I would only wear the outfit once. She then pushed the clothing on the counter to me to give it back to me. She was pretty sassy about it. I could have left but I did want the original alterations done at the least, so I asked if we could not do some things in order to cut the price, or if things could be done more cheaply/​quickly to cost less. We decided on only doing the neck collar, waist, chest darts and 2 buttons for $ 40 which felt very fair.
I did the remaining alterations at home myself super easily with a needle/​thread and fabric tape. I mean… It was for one night.
When I went I pick up my alterations they seemed kinda blah about it, despite my attempts to be friendly. The work they did was actually great. I was a little sad they didn’t iron it like they said they would though. The husband who works there is super sweet and I would like to see him again. I didn’t love how the wife spoke to me though. I felt like she didn’t care if I came back.
