    Reusable bag
    Emma S.

    Just a quick note to say how glad I am that Snow's business has remained open through the pandemic. Yesterday I picked up a pair of jeans she hemmed for me and, as usual, she recognized me by name. When she handed me this reusable tote with my alterations, I was delighted. It's such a sweet touch. And, of course, when I tried on the jeans, they were just right.

    Ruined my jacket, without any solution offered. The service was already on delay a day. No problem. I walked in next day at noon and still had to wait for the external service they use. It seems the clothes get tailored outsourced for a low price and return to be charged approx. $40. Unfortunately, the seam of the back of the jacket was not aligning anymore with the sleeve and on the right side the fabric was drawn together due to too tight sewing. Obviously very bad work done. I asked politely for a correction. The woman walked away with my jacket and returned with an open seam saying that I don't have to pay for the bad work. Worst case scenario as she roughly opened the seam half the sleeve side and retuned it to me without any attempt of help. The sleeves were two thumps wide open before. Now they ruined the sleeves and they will come off totally. It took a while to get John, the manager, on the phone who simply told me: Califormia's law allows him to offer no correction and I could do nothing. I should go somewhere else. Not a trusted business nor professional in their work.

    Perhaps the most expensive tailor on the planet. And that may be because of the location she is at... However, that's no excuse,

    I can not recommend Alterations to Go in Bon Air. Prices are high and her attitude is very offensive.

I ditto their story and feel like the wedding dress I just demanded back from her unfinished needs an exorcism. Please don't let her get her negativity on you and your dress before your wedding. She will probably be nice to you after she takes deep sighs and tells you how it's your fault, you bought the wrong dress like all the brides these days, it's too heavy, it's going to break her sewing machine, she has to charge double, and a multitude of it's your fault comments. I can't believe I paid $765 (plus a hefty $125 PREPAID consult fee) to have a simple layer shortened and then be told that I have to live with the way the dress looks. I've taken it somewhere else and they happily have told me it will be beautiful when they're done. I called her later that first day and said I was feeling kind of upset , and I said I wanted to come back and revisit it - there was going to be another consult fee. Isn't that part of what we pay for when you hire an Alterations person- Their time and advice? Seems she's only nice to you after she makes you feel bad, that's the only reason I can imagine for the positive reviews. PS my dress smelled like weird perfume when I picked it up (?!) so if you have an allergy to perfume you may want to let her know that! Ick. PPS she charges tax on her Service (which I questioned) , but you're not allowed to write Alterations in the Venmo comment. Kind of suspect.

From the very beginning, he was super upfront, honest, and transparent about everything, which I really appreciated. Wedding planning can already feel overwhelming, so having someone I could fully trust made such a difference. You can tell right away that he's incredibly skilled and truly knows what he's doing -- the fit turned out absolutely perfect. One thing I especially loved was how helpful he was with my bustle. I had no idea what direction to go in, and he took the time to walk me through different options and explain what would work best. His recommendation ended up being exactly what I needed -- both practical and beautiful. Beyond the actual work, his support throughout the whole process honestly took a huge weight off my shoulders. I always felt taken care of and knew I was in good hands. So so grateful I found him -- thank you again, Mo!

I only went here because the Bellam location closed, and I was told that they were the same owners. When I went to the Bellam Location (A Touch of Class), I absolutely loved dealing with Sherman. He was kind and friendly, and quality was always top-notch. At Smith Ranch Cleaners, you immediately ask yourself if you should maybe go somewhere else. The inside of the place is not clean, and the lady who works there has nasty long fingernails. I wouldn't want her to touch my clean clothes, that's for sure. She is on the chatty side, and it's hard to get out of there. She also told me that the clothing is no longer being cleaned in Marin, it's all being done in Oakland now since the plant on Bellam got shut down. After picking up my clothes, I couldn't believe my eyes. Here is what I emailed the business: --------- 1) one of my sweaters, cashmere, was hung on a very dirty hanger! A plastic hanger with tons of black grime on it. Please see picture. Because it was not the typical sticky hanger, the sweater slipped off the hanger in the parking lot and fell on the ground. Not ideal for something that was just cleaned! Since when do you use those types of hangers, and why do you use dirty hangers for customers? 2) two of my brand new dresses came back with pulled threads, see pictures 3) my brand new coat came back with white hair all over it! See picture 4) when I've brought items to you, there is always a note on the order if a stain didn't come out...I asked the lady who served me if she knew if the stains came out of my white linen pants and she wasn't sure, she said it depended on the stain...it didn't come out which is fine, but why wasn't there a note? I am so disappointed in Smith Ranch Cleaners. The worst part is really the two brand new dresses that have pulled threads. Can you help me understand what happened please? Why is the service so terrible at that location? What can we do about my damaged dresses? They weren't cheap and they were brand new. The hair is so strange too, we don't have a pet and it wasn't there before. ------- After this email in January, I didn't hear back for a week, and called. I spoke to one of the owners, Anar, who told me she would call me back in a week because she was dealing with a death in he family. I waited 3 months to give her space, and still didn't hear back. Not acceptable. I emailed again and she wrote back, and I asked her if she would be able to fix the damaged clothing, no response. Another month later I emailed again demanding a refund. She refused, only offering to try to fix the clothes. I refuse to let this business get their incapable hands on my clothing ever again. I now wasted over $100 in drycleaning charges and had two $150 dresses ruined. I will be filing a BBB complaint. I cannot believe how the owners of this business treat a loyal customer. Please take your business somewhere else and save yourself the trouble.
