Gaby is the best! they do excellent work and are very reasonable. we have been using them for several years.

I would NEVER recommend this place to anyone. I dropped off my pants Wednesday. She told us to come back Saturday before 2. We got here at 11:15 exactly and she said none my daughter's jeans are done & to come back in an hour. I asked if I could get the pants back, so I could take them somewhere else and she said they were all cut already she just needed to hem them. Ruined my whole day. I needed to be in Gilroy by 12:30. This shop closes at 2 and is closed Sundays. I needed the jeans for Monday. DO NOT COME HERE. They are also super overpriced. My usual person charges 8 dollars for kids jeans. This place charges 15 per KIDS jeans!!! My regular person is out of town, therefore I have this place a chance. I am so disappointed/upset with service. they didn't even offer a discount for the inconvenience. read more

I've been coming here for about two years, and they consistently do a good job. They've hemmed several of my pants and dresses perfectly every time. I also had them modify the straps of a formal dress into a halter neck, and I absolutely loved how it turned out. Prices are very reasonable, too. read more

Excellent and speedy work! Hemmed my husband's pants perfectly fair prices too Thank you so much!

My favorite place for alterations in Salinas. Good service, reasonable prices, and can expedite requests when needed.

SAVE YOUR TIME and DO NOT come to this place!! This lady ruined my dress!! Look at the pictures to show proof of her bad work!! read more

Alterations By Soco - Sewing & Alterations Near Me - Salinas, California

See all

Soco has always done a great job no matter what I bring in to be fixed or altered! I bring in my husband's pants to patch a hole in his pocket to hole a in the knee. He & I are very impressed with how you can hardly tell there was ever a hole. I bring in shirts, tunic style, dresses, jumpsuits & pants of course( all to be altered to my height and size). They do a wonderful job on all of these things Soco's staff is always friendly and quick with the turn around. I recommend her to family and friends as my mother recommend her to me. Now I am recommending Soco to you if you need alterations or something fixed this is the place to go! read more

Soco helped us out before my teens were in a wedding letting out a bridesmaid dress for my daughter and hemming some pants for my son. My mom took them in for me and did the pick up, but I must say - if my mom is happy, it's all good! The dress fit perfectly and thank goodness, because it was me who had waited until the last minute. They were responsive to phone calls to ensure garments were ready when promised and to confirm hours before sending in my mom. Thanks so much for helping us out. I would come here again for any alterations needed in the future. read more

So quick! Very happy with the pants I had hemmed. Just like they were off the rack after her work. Thank you! I will take all my alterations to her now. read more

This woman is amazing! Did an excellent job altering a dress for me. Two other seamstresses said it couldn't be done. One other was impossible to reach. I'm so glad m search led me to Soco. She did exactly what a I asked for and my dress fit so much better!! read more

I would not recommend this place it is really pricey. They do a good job but all they did was cut a very small piece of my dress about 2 inches and it was $50. It was honestly more than my dress. I would recommend just to go somewhere else. read more

This lady was being rude and telling me to go on a diet and loose some weight just bc my dress was tight on my chest, she just didn't want to do the job. Esta señora me dijo que tenia que aldegazar y ponerme a dieta por que mi vestido estaba apretado cuando ella podia aydarme y arreglarmelo. Por que yo eh ido con alguien y si me lo han arreglado, nomas no quiso esta señora. read more

Absolutely love the work that was done! I had a long formal gown that needed altering at the hem because it was too long. Showed up in the afternoon, the next day it was ready for pick up! Great work. You can't even TELL there is a seam on the hem. Great price too. 10/10 recommend, especially if you're in a pinch or time crunch. read more

Great service and awesome turn around time. I had a couple of jeans needing some tailoring, and checked several local areas. This place was by far the most friendly, and economically feasible. I will definitely be returning read more
