FAQ

Why can't you quote how much the work will cost? -- Sometimes we can however, sometimes opening up garments to get to the inside seams for work can sometimes take much longer or be much more difficult than just looking at the garment. If this happens we will contact you before proceeding any further.

How can my alterations cost more than my dress? -- We do not know how much customers pay for their clothing. We price based off of the time we use to pin your garments and the time and difficulty of the alterations. Garment cost and sewing work and time unfortunately do not go hand in hand. 

I see you are cash and check only. Can I pay at pick up? -- Yes, you can pay at time of pick up. We will text you when your order is ready with the total amount due.

Do you dry clean too? -- No, we are not a dry cleaners. We ask you that you please only drop off clean clothes for us to work on.

If I am not satisfied with the work can I bring my garment back? -- Yes, please bring your garment back right away and we will make it right for you! We do not except redos after 30 days from due date.

How long do you hold finished orders? -- We are not responsible for orders past due for 30 days.

I need something altered very quickly. What is your turnaround time? -- Typically we take 2-4 weeks. Depending on the alterations it can be quicker. If you have an emergency let us know and we will do our best to accommodate you!
