Highly reccomend this place if you're in the Boone-area. The lady that runs this place is very sweet and knowledgeable. She had my wedding attire hemmed and pressed for me in just one day; other surrounding businesses said they needed 2+ weeks! I highly reccomend Chen Alterations if you're looking to have something done fast fast and need it to look good. read more

EXPENSIVE. $163 for minor alterations on two suits. But more significantly, the owner didn't remember that I had paid cash (Credit Cards are not accepted) when I dropped the garments off (as required)! I told her she needed to keep better records. Demand a receipt for cash payments! read more

I've had multiple pieces done here, and the quality is just not good. One of my zippers is completely misaligned at the waist. There is a noticeable 1.5in difference on the left vs right sides where the bodice meets the skirt. The hem of my dress was crooked. My partner's suit pants came unhemmed mid event on part of his leg. I really do not recommend. read more

Amazing work hemming my jumpsuit that is a delicate fabric and it was ready in 24 hours. Add to this that this was only 2 weeks after Hurricane Helene and I was beyond thankful. Highly recommend Chen's. read more

Needed a pair of pants altered and they got them back to me within 24 hours. Super fast and they did a great job. Will definitely be using them for any future alterations. read more

Quick & excellent service for Suit Jacket that needed the sleeves hemmed & also my husband's had several pairs of Jeans shortened.

Our go to place in Boone to get my college kids clothes altered for special occasions. Fast , quality service!

DO NOT COME HERE!!!!! Would not recommend. I brought a dress in to be taken in on the sides and expressed to her what I wanted, and she told me it was 100% doable. In my short time in the shop two customers were complaining about their items. When I went to pick the dress up I tried it on and it wasn't what I wanted. The dress has two layers and she only altered one. I expressed that I want happy and she refused to do anymore work to the dress. She told me to "go home and ask my mom". She charged me $50 to ruin my dress. I went to get a second opinion on the dress and they said she had done a terrible job and apologized on her behalf. I recommended anyone but this place. read more

Fast service, needed my pants hemmed quickly and they were kind and fast. Great price too.

This business is unprofessional, sketchy, and waste of money. They only take cash which is a problem when you need a refund for the horrible alterations. read more

She totally ruined two new pairs of pants that I took in to hem. She charged far more than is customary. The pants are beyond repair.

DO NOT go here! My daughter took several pairs of pants to be altered there and some of them are terrible. The seams do not line up and the stitching on one is uneven so now they do not lay flat. She tried to get a refund for the pairs that were not sewn properly only to have the owner yell at her and tell her to not come back. The establishment only accepts cash so there is not a way to dispute the charges on a credit card. The bill was $90. The staff is extremely unprofessional and obviously do not stand behind their work. read more

I stumbled upon this place. They have done over 15 pants and a jacket. They do a great job, they are quick. They have great prices.

I have been going to Chen Alterations for several years and have never been disappointed. Excellent work, always fast and friendly. The prices are great. I've taken various types of clothing for every type of alteration I can think of. Dresses, skirts, blouses, jackets, and pants. If it can be done, they can do it. read more

she does a beautiful job and does them very quickly. my wife saves all her alterations for when we come up here and she is always pleased. the prices are quite reasonable for the quality of work. The one three star reviewer should be ashamed of herself, complaining of the price when the seamstress fixed her zipper on the spot to accommodate her. read more

This is absolutely the worst alterations establishment that exists. Please don't go here. Scammed me and charged me the same price for my alteration (simple hem) as my bridesmaid dress. Quickly altered the dress so I was unable to take it back and not give her my business (10 minutes after I left) Please don't go here. She's a scam artist. Will be reporting her to the better business bureau. read more

She is always quick and does a great job. I've had her alter dresses, add buttons, fix hems, etc. Very fair pricing too.

Completely botched a simple hem job on my two pairs of (expensive) Brooks Brothers wool suit pants. Had to take somewhere else to get fixed; she didn't even try to make it right. Basically told me that it would take her too long to do it correctly. Do not let this women touch any item of value. read more

Wen is a really nice person and she is really skillful. Can finish stuff for you very quickly and well. She is really helpful and doesn't ask for much. read more

I took in a suit to get fitted for a wedding I'm going to and they said they couldn't do the shoulders and when they took in the seams on the back and the sides the pattern didn't even line up. When I get it back there was also a hole in the pants. They charged me $50 for this. I went back in to get a refund since I had to take it to another tailor to get fixed but they refused to give me even a partial refund. I would not recommend this place for anything. Don't waste your money and risk your clothes getting messed up. read more

I took two pairs of jeans to be hemmed and the were ready the next day. Pleasant person, nice work.

I called ahead bc my zipper never quite worked right on my winter coat. I specifically asked if I could wait while it was repaired and told yes. I should have returned the coat but didn't and the zipper eventually broke for good. When I got there, she said it would cost $28 to put a new zipper in and I had to come back tomorrow as it would take two hrs. I explained this was my only coat and I had called bc I didn't have another one to wear in the meantime. She told me to hold on and took my coat (one of those puffer coats) to the back. She brought it back two mins later and the zipper was fixed. It had gotten bent she explained and she also put lube on it. She charged me $15. Now if she had charged me $10, I would be very happy but since she told me two hours and a new zipper would cost $28, and it took her literally two or three mins., I felt she overcharged me. Although I am very happy she fixed it and I would still recommend going here read more
