Caribees Cleaners & Alterations

For simple alterations and hemming they could be ok. however if you need a dress altered look elsewhere. This place is a total waste of time. They couldn’t even give us a stright answer as to whether they would be able to alter the dress or not. And told us to just wear it as is…

I’ve gone to this place for all my alterations for about 10 years. They did do a professional job but not THAT cheap. About a couple of months ago, I brought them a lacey dress that had rips in it to fix. They quoted me $ 55 and told me to find the replacement lace. I came back a few weeks later with the lace and was told I needed ‘stretchy’ lace. Ok so I go hunting for this stretchy lace and came back a few weeks later. The seamstress looked at the dress again and told me that there’s no way she quoted me $ 55 because it’s going to be a lot of work. Maybe just fix the front of the dress. WTH — what about the rips on the back? And the lace isn’t even going to match if you leave the back!
After all the running around back and forth and being a loyal customer for 10 years and bringing new customers to them — they were going to go back on their word?!! If this is how they treat a long-​time customer — how are they going to treat new ones?
I walked out of there so furious. I was left with a ripped dress, a yard of lace and no seamstress to get the work done — and spent weeks running around. Thank goodness one of the ladies at a fabric store recommended a lady who works out of her house to do it for me. I finally got the dress done, and she did an amazing job! Not only that, she only charged me $ 35! I found a new seamstress — who is good, cheap and HONEST!

I had a few weeks until my anniversary dinner with my girlfriend and a whole lot to preparation to do and being me with the video games, school, and a whole lot of day dreaming I totally forgot to clean my suit! So after many failed attempts to find a local dry cleaner that would be able to clean my suit with only less than 24 hours to go I finally found one, Caribees cleaner.

[Location/​Store]
Big warning for lowered cars… drive with caution or you’ll pay the price with scratches on your bumper. The parking could also be a little hectic and cramped as well, constantly packed by the nearby supermarket and other shops. Watch out for pedestrians!
The store is nothing special, a little messy and small but you’ll be in and out quickly so no worries.
[Service]
The service was great and very quick. This was the only shop that would even take my late notice request and I’m very pleased and happy with the cleaning quality of Caribees.
I even forgot a little lucky ring I carry around in one of the side pockets. They were kind enough to let me know and held it on the side until my pick up. Thanks for not stealing it!

Overall, Caribees came to the rescue and got me ready for an awesome anniversary dinner! I would definitely come back.

Open on Sundays! Fast, inexpensive, attentive, trustworthy.

My family has been coming here for dry cleaning for over 15 years. Never EVER had a problem with them. The quality of the dry cleaning is superb.
They also do hemming and tailoring. It’s on the pricy side compared to other places but they get the job done.

Small businesses like these need some attention.
Alterations and cleaners are not really showcased. However, as a Unilocaler it is my duty to write about my experience whether it be a popular place or not.
I went to have some pants tailored here. The place is in a strip mall on Senter Rd. For those not familiar with the area, this location is very «gritty». To all you people from Saratoga, Los Gatos, or any other picture perfect neighborhoods, you may even be scared to venture here. I love that prissy people are scared to venture to this part of town. It’s just amusing that we instill such fear.
Anyways, the gentleman who helped us was very nice and friendly. We’re not Vietnamese first of all, but this establishment as far as this entire strip mall is owned or ran by them. There seems to be a bias when it comes to attitudes when they see you are not of the same culture. Sad, but its true. Live here long enough and you just know. But this place does not pose that. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We told them the length we wanted, he eyeballed it and after I took the pants off he used a ruler and it was RIGHT ON THE MONEY! Impressive.
There was a 1 – 2 day turnaround, but we were not in a rush. It was very inexpensive and I did not have any problem with the tailoring. It doesn’t even look like it was altered.
I hope to do business again with this place.

I have been going to this place for the past 2 years! the owners are super nice! the customer service is Great and very friendly! Also Very Inexpesive!!!
