I had issues with both the service and quality of work at Central Alterations. I went in to get 2…read moredresses worked on, one needed to be taken in and I wanted the style of hem changed, and the other just needed to be hemmed. After putting in the pins, they asked when I needed to pick up the dresses. They suggested that I pick them up the day before the event I was wearing one, and I requested sooner so there would be time to make any changes to the fitting if necessary. They scheduled me to pick up the dresses 2 days before the event instead of their original suggestion on 1 day before (which was about 2 weeks after drop off). I made it clear that I would be picking up my dresses when they opened on the day they were supposed to be ready. They did not give me a price estimate the day I dropped them off. When I arrived to pick them up, NO WORK HAD BEEN COMPLETED ON EITHER DRESS. They had me sit while they worked on my dresses in that moment, and when they brought them out they had forgotten to change the hem on the first dress. So they took it back to work on it and by the time they brought it back out I was going to be late to work so I had to take the dresses and leave. They charged me $107 for these services. When I got home from work and had a chance to check the dresses, I realized that they used white thread to hem my purple dress and it stands out terribly! But at this point I had no time to take it back to them and get it corrected before I was flying out. I'm still considering whether I should go back and ask them to replace the white thread, I'm not sure that I trust them to make it right.
