Had to get alterations done to two things: long dress and a jumpsuit. Both satin material. I dropped it off Friday and needed it back by Wed for a destination wedding. Even though the altering for the dress was tricky because of how it's made, dude came through! He thought outside the box to help figure out how to alter it which is much appreciated. With the quick turnaround time and the amount of work he had to do, it cost me $57 dollars, cash only. Definitely can't beat that! I will always go to C & R for any alterations and will definitely recommend this biz to anyone.

My grandson, son and husband during Michael's First Holy Communion! Gracias C&R! Hasta la próxima!!

Renato did a great job hemming my curtains. I'll be back for sure. Just need to remember to bring cash (no CC or checks).

Is this place still around? I drove to the address and I saw a completely different named dry cleaner's place, but I couldn't find any signage for C & R Alteration.

For example, my wife needed her dress shortened for an event the next day and Renato took care of it as promised.

I had my wedding dress altered here after a coworker recommended them, and I am so glad I did. At…read morefirst, I was a little hesitant because I thought they mainly specialized in dry cleaning, and my dress was very delicate tulle with seven layers, so I wanted someone experienced. Other bridal boutiques quoted me between $700-$1,000 for alterations, which honestly stressed me out. Cathy, the seamstress, completely exceeded my expectations. She worked her magic and my dress turned out absolutely perfect beautiful fit, and handled with so much care. You can tell she really knows what she's doing. The best part? I paid about half of what other places were asking.

I have used this business before, but unfortunately this experience was very disappointing and did…read morenot meet my expectations. When I initially arrived, I spoke with one of the employees regarding a small coffee stain on the front of my shirt that I wanted removed. During our interaction, the employee appeared distracted and was using Facebook while I was speaking with her. She examined the shirt, acknowledged the stain, and instructed me to return a few days later to pick it up. When I returned, the same employee was again on her phone while assisting me. As I was paying for the service, she suddenly asked, "By the way, were these stains here?" I looked at my shirt and immediately noticed blue discoloration and marks that appeared similar to bleach damage. I informed her that these marks had not been present before and reminded her that the only issue with the shirt originally was the small coffee stain on the front. The employee insisted that they do not use bleach and stated they would keep the shirt for another week to attempt to correct the issue. After a week passed, I returned only to find the shirt in the exact same condition. I also never received a phone call or update informing me that they were unable to fix the problem. During this conversation, the same employee explained that the individual responsible for cleaning and inspecting garments documents existing damage by taking photos before items are processed. She stated that if there are stains or defects prior to cleaning, photos are taken. If there are no issues, no photos are necessary. No photos had ever been taken of my shirt, which would suggest that there were no existing discoloration issues beyond the small coffee stain. Despite this, she continued insisting that the shirt had been brought in that way. It was close to closing time and she shut me down and stated we had to go. Very rude demeanour. I was then instructed to return a few days later to speak directly with the owner regarding a resolution. When I met with the owner, I was told there was a possibility that an employee may have used bleach on the shirt. This directly conflicted with the previous statement that bleach was never used at the business. At that point, there appeared to be no accountability or consistency regarding what had happened. To resolve the matter, I was given only two options: 1. Keep the shirt and receive store credit $10. 2. Receive compensation for the shirt's value with proof of purchase, but they would keep the shirt. I explained that I believed I should be compensated for the damage while also retaining possession of my own property. I was told that was not an option. This situation is about more than just a shirt. The most concerning issue was the lack of accountability and customer service throughout the process. A mistake can happen at any business, but taking responsibility and properly addressing it is important. If this had involved a wedding dress, suit, or another valuable item, the outcome could have been much more serious. Lastly I was issued a check, they kept my shirt and owner still insisted I do not leave a bad review. Well, I'm being honest.
