    A thoroughly disappointing tailor…read more I wanted to use a local tailor to put the needed patches, nametapes, badges etc. on a military uniform. I called them and was told they knew how to do it and regularly handled military and police uniforms. Sounds good! I show up with my uniform, the patches and badges and nametapes, and a printout of the uniform regulation. I carefully explained where everything goes, how everything needs to look, and offered a copy of the requirements. Instead of taking the copy of the regulation, they scribbled down notes on what I explained and pointed out. Okay, well, as long as it's done right. Then, some sewing that should take a couple of hours took two weeks. I had to keep calling and calling and being told it would be done soon. . .waiting weeks for work that should take hours was a bad sign. Then, when I actually get it back, it's all wrong. Completely. Rank insignia turned 90 degrees from the way they're supposed to be, things reversed. . .and I just plain rejected it and told them to re-do it. So, another week of waiting for that to be corrected. Then, I got it back and it looked more right, so I accepted it. . .only to realize once I got it home, they had things wrong in other, more subtle ways, like things that are supposed to be at specific places, as in measured with a ruler "This must be 1.5 inches below this" sort of things, that I'd explained, showed and offered to give a copy of the actual regulation, was sewn in the wrong places and distances. It was more "slap it on in about the right area" instead of carefully measuring to ensure compliance with the standards. . . .and the cost to have those things sewn on was pretty high. I'm no stranger to getting stuff sewn on uniforms, they were charging about twice what I'd have paid if I was going to some sewing place outside the gates of an active duty post (in the future, I'm just driving to Ft. Knox and going to a place there, instead of trying to find a local business, which I also did to take it to a place to have them fix all the errors on the uniform). I'll give them a second star because I think they were sincerely trying, but simply exaggerated their experience with uniforms and their focus is clearly more on altering formal wear than military uniforms, and they were nice and very apologetic about the errors when I pointed them out, but I won't be back.

    I've been taking clothes here for alterations for years and never had a problem. Mostly I take…read morepants to be hemmed and the prices are reasonable. For these simpler things, I'd recommend Lynn's. There's usually a good two week turn around, but if I can remember to plan ahead, it's no big deal. And a few times when I've asked about picking up earlier, they've always accommodated. *NOTE: cash/check only, no credit cards - half deposit required at drop off

    I can't say enough good things about Salam's Tailoring. He was kind, professional, and clearly an…read moreexpert. He's been tailoring suits since he was 14, and it shows. I came to him in a tough moment, needing a suit tailored for my mother's funeral with less than 24 hours' notice. Salam's came through with incredible care and precision. The suit fit perfectly and was done in record time. True craftsmanship and genuine service, Highly recommended and I can't thank him enough for helping me in a pinch under such unfortunate circumstances.

    I would not recommend this business. I had a bad experience and found the service to be…read moreunprofessional and overpriced. I paid $80 for tailoring (which was the same price as the dress itself) and the work was not even completed properly. It still had the same issues I came in with. To make matters worse, the dress was not ready on the agreed-upon date. I was told it would be ready an hour after opening, but when I arrived, I was told to come back in 1-2 hours. Because I had a meeting and couldn't keep driving back, my boyfriend went to pick it up later, only to be forced to wait another hour while they finished the work in front of him. It was clear they didn't even start on the dress until the morning of the pickup (very much rushed). The owner was not at all apologetic for wasting our time, and at that point, I didn't even trust them to fix the remaining issues before my graduation. There are definitely better tailors in Pittsburgh with fairer pricing and better time management. Save your time and money and go elsewhere.
