Alterations & repairs
Bring in clothing that doesn't fit right or needs mending. Our team handles measurements, repairs, and alterations with practical attention to fit.
What we do
Whether it's a hem that needs shortening, a seam that came apart, or a suit that needs taking in, bring it to us.
Fit and repair options
Bring the garment so we can see its construction and condition. The work needed determines the estimate and turnaround; tell us your deadline and ask about both before approving the repair.
A stuck zipper or one that separates can make a jacket, pair of pants, skirt, or dress hard to wear. We inspect the zipper and surrounding fabric to discuss repair or replacement options.
Bring the whole garment and any loose zipper parts. Show us where it catches or comes apart so we can assess the work and explain the estimate.
Adjust the length of trousers, jeans, or suit pants for the way you wear them. The fabric and existing hem help determine the finishing options.
Bring the shoes you plan to wear with the pants and tell us your preferred length. We can review the fit and discuss a hemming estimate after seeing the garment.
Waist and seam adjustments can improve the fit of pants, skirts, dresses, and suits. We also handle buttons, snaps, linings, and general mending.
Bring the garment and the layers or shoes you normally wear with it. Point out any tight or loose areas; available fabric and construction determine what changes are possible and the estimate for the work.
Describe the garment, the repair, and when you need it. We'll help you plan the next step.
