NT’s Alteration

NT is amazing! She has done my alterations since I moved to San Diego.
Nt has done a awesome job on all my clothes.
I’m currently wearing something she has altered for me. Looked down and was thinking how great I look and how well it fits me; that’s when I knew I needed to write and review, that was long over due.
NT is very sweet and kind. She is also very quick! I feel NT prices are very very reasonable.
I have since moved out of Mira Mesa but drive about 20 minutes away just for her quality work.

Always friendly, flexible, and great work!
The very first time I called NT’s, I needed a bridesmaid’s dress altered. It was a four-​layer dress with different fabrics, but she still was able to accommodate my request for two day service (and with a smile).
Even though I have a sewing machine and could do many of the alterations myself (not nearly as well), the prices are so reasonable that it’s definitely worth it to just have it done for me – quickly and correctly at a low cost!
Love this place.

Amazing amazing amazing! Super sweet woman with the amazing ability to do tricky alterations for an amazing price at supersonic speed. She seriously saved the day when I brought her a size 10 gown and asked her to make it a size 4. she’s my new go-​to seamstress :)

NT did a great job altering my Tommy Hilfiger dress at a very affordable price. My dress was a little bit big on me so she tighten up the waist by rerunning the main back strap. What I like most is that she would think out loud and walk you through how she’s going to alter your dress so you’ll know what’s going on with your beloved garment. I picked up my dress on time. I would definitely go here again.

Found this place on Unilocal.It was great. The lady explained what she had to do to fix and alterate 2 pairs of pants. Super nice, I will be going back in the future. Good prices also.

I went to NT based off Unilocal rating, she is super nice. I went to get 2 pants (jeans & slacks) hemmed for $ 6 each and two jeans tapered and hemmed $ 16 each. I’ll be picking it up on Tuesday. Reasoning behind my 3 star currently is because of how long the turn around time is, I dropped it off Thursday afternoon and she said it would be ready Tuesday late afternoon. I usually go to Ann’s tailoring on Miramar rd and they have like a 2 day turn around time. I now know she works alone, so I get it but… I wasn’t use to such a slow turn around rate so I probably won’t come back.
I’ll update on quality of work once I go pick them up.
Update **
I went to pick up my pants and she told me that she wasn’t feeling well and that’s why there was such a delay. I immediately felt bad, althoughI wish she would’ve told me that up front.
The hem job was nice, there was one pair that wasn’t tapered as tightly as I wanted and she did it for me right then and there! That was really nice of her. So I pumped her back to a 4 star from a 3 considering the circumstances of illness and excellent in house customer service day of pick up.
She did tell me that her usual turn around time is 2 days and if you need it the next day just to tell her. I’ll try her out again on my next round of jeans/​pants.

Found NT’s by searching on Unilocal,because I had originally tried taking my lace dress to my usual alterations place, where they wanted to shorten my overly long sleeves by creating a seam in the middle of the sleeve, because it would be easier for the seamstresses, and she was afraid it would get too tight around my armpits. After thinking about it, I knew there was plenty of armpit space, so I took it back and brought my dress to NT’s Alteration instead. Without hesitation, she knew to shorten the sleeves by pinning them at the original seam on the shoulders. She even asked if I wanted to bring the dress in on the sides and shorten it, all by using the original seams. She even had it ready for me in two days. The dress came out perfect for my engagement pictures!
CASH ONLY!

NT is the best. I’m new to San Diego and needed some pants hemmed for a job interview, and NT expedited it for me and had it done the next day! She does very good alterations. Been here a month and Ive had 5 pants hemmed and 3 shirt sleeves shortened.
This is my go to place for alterations, period! Plus its right down the road from our house =)

Tailoring is on point! Quick, easy, and it’s like she has magic eyes, everything fit perfectly!

Very happy with the service. NT is friendly and hardworking. I think she may actually be the only one there. Quality of the cut was perfect and she was able to keep my original hem. Took in three jeans to get hemmed and picked it up 2 days later. Very satisfied overall. I will definitely be returning since I always have to hem all my pants.

Cash only but the price is right. Nt is nice. I’ll be picking up in two days so we’ll find out how the quality of her worj will be.
Just picked up the pants. Nice and clean work. She’s also friendly and nice. Will recommend to friends.

I needed to hem my work pants that costs me $$$. I was very cautious on just choosing anybody especially the last person did a bad job and I wouldn’t get reimbursed for their screw up. So I decided to try this place out and was glad I did. They did a quick, cheap, and awesome job.

Very Efficient, Quick and Accurate !!!
We came in for altering an Indian Traditional Dress (Anarkali). We were little skeptical if they would be able to work on Indian dresses but they did an amazing job. The turnaround time was quick and price was reasonable (She bettered the quote we got at Artesia) She is very friendly and experienced and understands exactly what is needed to be done to make you look pretty in the outfit.

came in here looking to get some changes to my uniform. I had to explain and show her what I meant using some photos, but she got the job done quickly and perfectly so it was well worth the effort. only payment method is cash, but it’s actually quite a good price for service in my opinion.

I went in about 2 weeks ago to hem a bunch of maxi skirts, take the waist in a couple skirts, and fix the fit on a couple dresses. NT said she would be done in a week and I got really busy so I didn’t pick them up until 2 weeks later. No doubt that she had them done on time though. She is really nice and knows her craft. The moment I put on any piece of clothing she knew exactly how to fix it right away. I had a couple different cuts too. Will be coming back! I don’t know how her pricing compares to others because I haven’t been to many other places (my mother usually does my alternations but she got too busy).

My experience at NT alterations was the best possible experience from the calling in and asking her if she could have my gown ready and altered by tomorrow & she responded with a YES so enthusiastically that I showered and rushed over with excitement. It’s also conveniently by my laundromat so I’m extra STOKED. She was easy to communicate with and without a doubt understood exactly what I needed done to the gown and the damage was… $ 25!
WHOOOOOA!!! DEAL! Officially loyal to NT ALTERATIONS :)

Good quality work for a good price!!! The owner is very sweet, speaks and understands English great do you don’t have to worry if she understands your vision for your clothes or not. Her place is a quick and easy alterations place.
I will be coming back! Great place!

Work was done quickly and correctly. NT is a very nice lady and she does top notch work.
Customer for LIFE! A++++++++++

My wife and I have used NT multiple times, since moving to Mira Mesa. The lady who’s always there is friendly and helpful. Their prices are great, and the turnaround time is usually only a day or two. Make sure to have cash on hand to pay, as they don’t take cards. It’s our go to place for alterations and repair in Mira Mesa.

This is was my first time at any alteration place, so I didn’t know what to expect.
They lady was very welcoming. I told her that I needed my dress to be altered, since it was way too long. She had me put it on, and she pinned it where she thought it would look good.
I asked her when it would be ready. And she told me in an hour! Wow! But, I told her that I would pick it up later, since I didn’t have cash on me. Oh, that’s the only method of payment. Which sucks, but oh well.
It was worth the trip to her shop. And the dress is at at perfect length. It was super fast and simple!
