Hem & Stitch

The owner recently retired and closed her shop. She said someone new bought it and does alterations, but she doesn’t know what kind of quality they do. I drove far to see this owner so I will find one near my house.

I have been going to Hem and Stitch for years. The owner is VERY meticulous and has never disappointed. Her prices are fair and she has always given me excellent advice regarding alterations.

Absolutely the best alterations in the suburbs. She has done everything from designer couture to h&m for me and always leaves it looking perfect, dare I say even better than when I brought it in? Can’t get any better than this, her prices are reasonable and delivers on time, every time!

Horrible, Horrible Workmanship. I brought my shirt here to be hemmed up. It was very long and I wanted it shortened. These women do not know what they are doing. She did not measure me and she just went off of a shirt that was already hemmed. Well it looks like she must be blind when she hems because my shirt is completely butchered, and I cannot wear it! She cut it so short it probably woudl fit my little nephew. These women need to retire or get stronger glasses because I can hem my clothes better then them. AVOID HEM AND STITCH! Oh and she will tell you it is one price and then when you pick it up she will have some lame reason why it is more. My shirt was supposed to be $ 12 and then when I picked it up it was $ 16. Nothing but a $ 16 dollar disaster that I have throw away. Thanks for nothing Hem and Stitch!

I have used them many times and have been more than delighted!

The workmanship, service and communication were so good with my first visit, and glowing comments from other repeat customers in the shop I felt this was the place to recommend for the alterations needed for my future daughter in law’s wedding gown. Well established and attentive to detail gives one peace of mind when one does not want to risk the most important dress when one becomes a mother in law.
It was a concern when looking at Unilocal to see so few reviews, but this is an untapped gem of a business. Feel confident the staff will make your alteration perfect.

Great place to take Alterations, I have been thrilled with my items.

I had my coat zipper put in and a pair of jeans hemmed – super-​nice staff and spent time to figure our which zipper was appropriate for the weight of my coat. Their prices are also very reasonable!
