Alterations & Tailoring in Decatur

Fit is what makes clothing look expensive. A $60 pair of trousers hemmed properly reads better than a $300 pair that pools at the ankle.

Our alterations happen on site in Oakhurst, so you can be fitted, adjusted and out the door without your clothes leaving the building.

Honest about scope

Some garments cannot be rescued by tailoring, and we say so before you pay for the attempt.

FAQ

Questions, answered

How much do alterations cost?

Alterations are quoted at the fitting, because the price depends on the garment, the fabric and how much work the change involves. We tell you the number before any work starts.

Do I need an appointment?

Fittings are by appointment so the tailor is available when you arrive. Call 404-687-0035 or send a request through the contact form and we will book a time.

How long do alterations take?

Simple hems are often a couple of days; more involved reconstruction takes longer. We give you a date at the fitting.

Do you do bridal alterations?

No. Bridal alterations are a specialty of their own and we would rather point you to someone who does them daily.

Ready when you are
