Alteration Station

I haven’t written a review in a while, because I think Unilocal can be unfair. I actually just deleted a bunch of reviews I’ve written good or bad, but I just used it to find a tailor to use, so I thought I would share my experience for those looking too. I originally went to DZ alteration, but they kept pushing back the promise date, so I decided to just pick up my dress and take it elsewhere. I chose alteration station because it was on the east side, meaning it’s closer to me and parking isn’t a pain.
I took in two pieces, a dress and a pair of pants. Both ~$ 200 pieces each. So, you can see I wanted to make sure each dress was altered well. The dress is my favorite, it’s a rayon Christy Dawn dress. I got both hemmed and the bodice shortened on the dress.
The pants turned out almost perfect. The right leg is a tiny bit longer. The dress, on the other hand, looks like someone who isn’t very experienced sewed it. I first noticed the thread they use does not match the original thread whatsoever. It was the wrong white, and stuck out like a sore thumb. Then I noticed how crooked their lines were. So, so crooked. I feel like I could have done a better job.
I’m curious if two different people worked on my order.
The people were really nice and I got my things on time.

The seamstress at this alteration station location is the BEST! I have brought several items in and her work is really exquisite. I very highly recommend her and this location. 5 stars.

I had a dress that I needed altered and he was able to get it done in 2 days. I brought it in last minute of course. I didn’t tell him it was my wedding dress. He did a great job on it. He was a no fuss no muss sort of guy which I appreciated, good direct communication.

Great service and very friendly! I needed a blouse altered, was told it would be ready in two days. I said that I was going out of town before that and he said he would get it done that night so I could take it with me. That was awesome!

Turned around tailoring in two days as I was visiting in town — solid job, no fuss

Surprised that this alterations shop hasn’t been reviewed more. I’ve been going here for at least 10 years and they have rescued and improved garments more times than I care to count. The owner’s skills are excellent and rarely have I been disappointed. They’ve even stayed open till 6:15 several times when I was stuck in traffic. Very nice hard working people.

Awesome! The owner said he would be able to hem my pants same day with only 4 hours to close … And on a Friday of all days!!! Very nice, polite, personable — same with the cashier /​his assistant. I will definitely come back again !!
