Erol’s Tailoring & Alterations

Erol’s is
!
It’s been awhile since I’ve been seriously impressed with a tailor, but these guys are super professional, hardworking, and good at what they do! They seem to take about a week to turn items around, but that doesn’t bother me as it seems to be in line with how long other tailors take anyway and I usually plan enough ahead that I’m not in a pinch.
As with all tailors, it’s a comfort/​trust thing. If you haven’t been here, but are thinking about it — test the waters with a piece that you could live without in case you’re not happy. For example, I wouldn’t start with a nice suit, a wedding dress, or a leather jacket right off the bat. While I’ve had my leather jacket altered elsewhere by another awesome tailor, and I’m already married — I can’t say that I’d be bringing those items in soon, but would if I had the need. But, my husband’s 3-​piece suit IS needing to be altered and you can bet we’ll be bringing it here based on the first few «tests» they’ve passed with flying colors.

Best tailor in Denver. Erol and his wife do excellent work. I’ve tried many tailors and none come close to the quality and service of Erol’s.

I stopped by Erol’s last week to get the hem on two pairs of jeans altered and picked up the finished product today. Erol and Filiz are some of the nicest people you will meet and do a great job. Fair prices and turnaround time, but the service is top notch. My alterations were fairly simple, but I have complete confidence and will definitely be back!

I had to wait until I wore the pants that Erol’s tailored for me, just to make sure I liked them. My verdict– it’s a win. I think I’ll wear the pants more now than I ever did before.
I like the atmosphere at Erol’s, and that made me bump up my rating from 3 stars to 4. Erol himself greeted me when I walked through the door, and he remembered that I had called earlier in the afternoon. The building is an old house, and it’s very homey inside. Pictures on the wall drawn by kids, and comfy chairs to sit in (not that I had to do any waiting). Just look down the hallway and you see the row of sewing machines where they do their work.
The quality was «A-​»… there’s a tiny pucker in the side seam and they’re still just a smidge too long… but for the amount of change they produced in the garment with no intermediate fitting I’d say that’s pretty good.

Had a zipper come off my winter coat for about a year. Never took it anywhere because I knew I’d probably be charged heavily for something so small.
Went into Erol’s and I was greeted so kindly.
Erol took my coat into the back, fixed it within 5 minutes, came out and helped me put it back on.
When I asked the cost, he said no charge.
It really made my day to have such great customer service even without paying!
Definitely recommend their business:)

Horrible job on alternating my suit pants. The man got the right idea in slimming it down and hemming the length but the left leg was completely different than the right leg. The left leg was far shorter than the right and more skinnier too. I tried bringing it back to have them correct their mistakes and after leaving it with them for a day or two, I got it back in the same condition. I tried to explain to the lady that works there that there is an obvious difference between the left and right leg, but all she told me was that it’s the same and pointed it out by putting the legs of the pants together. Anyways, I will not be going back. Paid $ 42 for a bad job.

I had an emergency, last-​minute alteration I needed on a bridesmaids dress and Erol’s fit me right in. I took in the dress Tuesday morning and picked it up end of day Wednesday.
I was very relieved they could help me so last-​minute and also did a wonderful job. Both of the owners were very sweet and accommodating. Thanks again!

Took a bridesmaid dress in to get altered a while back and just got back a pair of jeans that I had hemmed. Could not be more pleased with both results. Customer service is amazing and the price can’t be beat for the outstanding quality of work that everyone does here. I’ll definitely be returning with anything else that I will need altered.

If you are thinking about getting pants hemmed here, don’t! The stitching for my hem is halfway up my shin!

— Really sweet and freindly
— Excellent work, reasonable prices for the level of work
— Busy, so expect a week or so for simple work and a couple weeks for more
— Hardworking, professional, and dedicated

This place is THE place for tailoring in Denver. The quality of work, turnaround times, and pricing are on point– no surprises there. What makes the difference here is the attitude of every member of staff here. I appreciate their integrity and unendlying positive attitude, no matter how many customers are in the store. One time I came here with a complicated alteration (a veil) and Erol misquoted me under the price it would actually cost to alter the veil. He only ended up charging me that cost, which I’m sure wasn’t an easy thing for him to do considering he has a business to run. Since then, I’ve come back time and time again and gotten consistently great service.

I’ve been here once– I consulted Unilocal for a great tailor in the area and this is what I decided on! Went in a few weeks ago because I found an awesome shirt, but a weird slit in it that I wanted sewed up. So I was happy when they said it would only be a few days. When I picked up my shirt, they did exactly what I wanted! I’m excited to have found this place, and now I can bring in more items to have tailored. And can we talk about how friendly the owners are?! They are fantastic. Love Erol’s.

Erols has great quality tailoring and can usually honor requests for a quick turn around. I gave him 2 days to hem 2 pairs of pants and he said no problem! He is great

I absolutely love Erol, his wife, and Erol’s tailoring. They are a dynamic duo and does an amazing job!!! As a Stylist at Bella Bridesmaids, he is the ONLY tailor I recommend to our clients! I even had them tailor mine and another bridesmaids dress for my own brothers wedding!

I took my Michael Kors coat with a busted zipper to Erol’s for repair. When it broke again the same day I picked it up from them, Erol told me he would gladly put a new zipper on it and credit the $ 18 I had already spent toward the replacement. The gold zipper took a week plus to arrive and the repair took a week and a half. This is a wonderful family business that takes pride in their handiwork and treats customers as family. I’ll be bringing our clothes to get tailored here for the foreseeable future. Thank you, Erol!

I don’t have extensive experience with tailors, but I really like Erol and his local tailoring and alterations business. The first time I stopped in was a week before Halloween, when I was working on a Matrix costume. Erol’s advice on how to alter my thrift shop leather trench coat was honest: he advised me not to bother based on the way I’d be wearing it (open rather than buttoned). That type of self-​denying honesty is rare in the world of business, so needless to say I thought of Erol again as I began costuming work for my latest line of video production. Specifically, I needed a lab coat tailored to fit so that I would look like a scientist rather than a white bag. Just a few days later, and for a reasonable price, Erol had me looking the part.
Erol and his staff are genial, helpful, and good at what they do. Every time I’ve stopped by, I’ve been impressed at the dapper-​looking clients trying on their garments in front of the floor-​to-​ceiling mirrors in the shop. With people like that frequenting Erol’s Tailoring, I can tell it’s the place to go for customizing all sorts of clothing. And you will more than likely get a firm handshake and a pat on the back from Erol himself every time you visit. I wish these people were my neighbors so I could bake them cookies!

I took two high-​end used sweaters to Erol for repair on some holes. One sweater was cashmere, the other was fine-​knit merino wool. The repairs seem to be well-​done, however, there was some confusion over the price. Erol’s English is not perfect, and I think I misunderstood him over the phone — I understood that the repairs would cost $ 14 dollars. When I went to pick up the sweaters, the total was $ 40 — 14 for each hole repaired (-$ 2 discount, apparently).
Bottom line — good work, but more expensive than I’d expected. Make sure to get a good quote before bringing your clothes in, and you should be fine.

I searched through Unilocal reviews fairly extensively when preparing to have my wedding suit tailored. I knew what I wanted and was afraid I wouldn’t find the right person for the job.
Not only was this place one of the highest rated tailors in Denver, but it also had the most reviews. I scanned for any noteworthy bad reviews and was impressed.
I brought my suit in about a month and a half before my wedding. I was told by the owner that he would need nearly three weeks to complete the work. That seemed like a long wait, but I figured I didn’t want to rush him on such an important piece of clothing.
When the day he gave me for a pick up arrived, I called to make sure everything was on track. Not only was it not ready yet, but he had to search for awhile to even find my items. Needless to say, I was annoyed (and a bit nervous that it wouldn’t be ready on time!). I expressed my displeasure and he said he would make sure it was ready by the end of the day. This worried me even more because I didn’t want him to rush and make mistakes. He assured me that it would be just fine.
When I finally got the call that my items were ready, I stopped by. Everything fit pretty nicely (the way I wanted it to) except for the jacket, which was still a little large and boxey for my tastes. Furthermore, it was fairly expensive, at least considering the service.
Overall, I was pretty unimpressed with this place and I won’t be returning.

I needed my suit pants hemmed on relatively short notice this month, and Erol came through for me spectacularly. He and the other lady who work here are both very charming, and obviously are very good at what they do. I dropped off a pair of lined pants on a Monday afternoon and they were ready for me by Friday afternoon, and beautifully done at that. Plus, it was only $ 18, so it really doesn’t get better than that.
If I ever need anything else tailored, I know exactly where I’ll go.

I found them on Unilocal when looking for a tailor to fix a suit I had. The jacket was too long, and too large in the waist. I didn’t want to trust anyone with redoing a jacket completely like this.
I was greeted by Erol when I first walked in, and shown where the changing rooms are. (Which are nice and spacious). After I changed into the first item, Erols wife began to help me. She was incredibly warm, nice and friendly. I asked her if it was even possible to shorten the jacket because of where the pockets were on it, and luckily it was. She also slimmed the leg in on the pants on the suit since they were VERY wide on me.
I also tried on another black suit I had and she took the jacket in on the sides and shortened the sleeves on it a bit. (I have scoliosis and my left arm hangs down way lower than my right arm, and she fixed the jacket for each arm). Here’s where I got really impressed I asked if the black pants I was wearing with the blazer needed any alterations in her opinion and she said the fit me «perfect». I like that she didn’t suggest things just to tack on more prices.
She also added a button on a button up shirt for me. (One of those shirts that has a super low cut neck line; which don’t look right on me since I’m an A cup). She also took this shirt in a bit at the top/​chest.
Also she took a shell tank in on the sides for me as well.
All in all this cost $ 288. I feel like it was VERY expensive but; it was also worth it it. The grey suit literally looks like a new suit; it looks amazing. The jacket fits perfect now and I’m not swimming in it. The lapel on the black blazer is sort of laying weird, it may need to pressed. And everything else looks great!
I will use them for any tailoring needs I have that are more complicated that hemming and easy quick fixes.
His wife opened the door for me when I left, and made me feel like a family friend.
There is kind of no parking which is sort of annoying but overall Excellent, even though a bit expensive (though worth it).
