Prices can vary up or down based on garment construction and type or amount of fabric, so it's best to come in and have us inspect the garment before you assume the pricing shown here.
Also, please remember that just because you bought it for a bargain, does not mean you're going to get it altered for a bargain. The cheaper the garment, the more flexible your expectations need to be with the final result.
We aim to have all casual wear completed within 14 calendar days.
Rush fees may apply in order to meet shorter deadlines, and same-day services are double price.
Our pants hems are lifetime guaranteed. This means that if the stitching ever comes undone, bring them back and we'll fix it for free.
