Absolutely DO NOT take your items here. After waiting for two weeks for our items, we were told the seamstress had a medical emergency and our items wouldn't be done in time. Of course I understood but was then promised a certain date for pick up. I arrived to the shop and it was closed even though the posted hours said differently. Then when I called and called and texted several times I was told my item was not done. I got my money back and was told the other item had been completed. It was not. My husband tried on his pants and they were the same length. This experience was horrible! read more

I paid $20 to have pants hemmed and they were too long. When I asked her to re-do them as I needed them the day I picked them up she said it would be a week! Terrible service read more

We had a ladies dress to be taken in. They charged $130 and when we got home we discovered they didn't do the work. Can't recommend this place. Seems like they want to take your money but not do the work. BUYER BEWARE! read more

This place was great. Needed some suit pants re-hemmed up. No drama. Took them in on a Friday and they were ready on Tuesday. Not bad. $15. Good value. They were very nice in the shop. Seemed to do a good job and the pants are holding up great. Thanks Kim's Tailoring! read more

My mom is queen of tailoring- using one and or doing it herself. We had a real reliable and affordable tailor back in Indiana that we came to love after using them for many years. Then we both moved out to Arizona, which part of adjusting included needing a tailor (her moreso than me). I needed tailoring this summer for a black-tie formal bridesmaid dress and my immediate thought was to go to Kim's, despite the fairly long drive 1-way from Tempe. Due to the drive, I called ahead to confirm they were open (it was a random Friday afternoon). The gals running the shop are super nice and do great work! I needed ~3inches taken up on the dress for 3 layers which ended up being way more expensive than I thought, but Kim told me it's due to the layers. Fair enough. She quoted 2 weeks turnaround and it was indeed ready at the day quoted. I think if you don't give them a hard deadline, it may take longer than you think. So if there is a specific event/date you need something, make it abundantly clear. read more

Worst experience ever! I went to get dress below shortened maybe half an inch.. she pinned it up while i was there.. when i picked it up she had turned it into a vest!!! She offered to pay if I reordered it..didn't have my size available anymore, so she said if I got an XL she would alter it to fit...but would not pay for the expedited shipping to get the dress to me by certain event I was wearing it for (so what was the point), then she decided she wouldn't help me but would refund my money for the dress if I brought her the receipt.. she refused to give me my dress back, but said she would once I showed her receipt.. went can back with receipt, she refunded my money but refused to give me my dress back!!!!!!! She said it was hers since she just bought it!!! Worst experience ever, I was so upset had no idea how to handle the situation so just left after I saw my refunds had posted on my account... be warned she is a terrible human being!!!!!!!!!! And the whole time she is yelling and cussing me out in Korean!!like it was my fault or I was being unreasonable. Pictures below of what she did! I won't even give her the one star, but was forced to give on this review!! read more

Kim's Tailoring - She cut it in half and turned it into a vest!!!!! Unbelievable - Sewing & Alterations Near Me - Chandler, Arizona

See all

Always gets my request correct. Service with a smile. Affordable for all kinds of tailoring.

Very friendly and nice to deal with. I needed my Gucci backpack repaired due to one of the straps came off. They did an excellent job with the repair. It looks as good as new and very reasonably priced. Also had two pair of pants hemmed...very satisfied. I highly recommend them. read more

I had brought a shirt to get altered as it was too long.. After picking it up the shirt was uneven and the threads were coming out. Unfortunately I had to bring it to another tailor who got the job done correctly. Will not be bringing anything there to be altered. read more

I prepaid my alteration and was told to be back in a week. I came back, the seamtress couldn't find my pants. I eventually spotted my pants in a pile that was not done. So she totally forgot the service! This was the first time that a tailor has forgotten my order, never happened before! When I went back the second time it was still not done. I was very upset. The two seamstresses in the front offered no apologies whatsoever, one even started to cuss at me in Korean. The guy in the back heard the commotion, came out, not only did he not apologize, he used racist comments towards me, implying that Koreans are better people than other races. I am appalled that they can still be in business. Stay away from that shop for your own good. Totally unprofessional people and racis! read more

They were extremely rude and fat shamed during the process of trying to figure out alterations. I recently gained weight due to a recent surgery and the women working there did nothing but tell me it was ridiculous to try to fit in the items i brought in for tailoring. She tried to rush thru my questions and was straight up rude. She made me leave feeling incredibly uncomfortable and will not be returning. Go somewhere else for altering. read more

I do not recommend Kim's tailoring I walked in for two pairs of pants to be hemmed and three buttons to be placed in the correct spot on two different pairs of pants I was charged $42 dollars outrageous now that I have my two pants both pants do not have their buttons interesting huh I do not recommend Kim's tailoring if you have a friend or family member who can sew buttons or do hymns ask them I'm sure they will do a much better job. read more

I called ahead of time to see if they could fix a zipper for me within 6 days. I was told yes, of course... so I drove down there same day. They said it would be ready by Wednesday and to come any time that day for pickup. I paid ahead of time and left my item to have the zipper fixed. Come Wednesday I go at 11am to pickup and it hasn't been touched. The lady literally laughed because it was apparently funny that they "hadn't gotten to it". I was told to come back in 30 minutes. I sent my husband TWO hours later to pick it up and they STILL hadn't gotten to it. They told him to sit and wait 30 minutes and they would fix it. I paid 25$ for a zipper to be fixed. They didn't even need to put a new zipper in. It was a simple and quick fix. Overpriced. And apparently just not important to them to finish within the given time frame, twice. Horribly frustrating as it was time sensitive for me. Two stars because they did a good job and were very nice the first time I dealt with them. But- Unprofessional and unreliable. Would not recommend. read more

I can't believe how this seamstress lady is vey amazing!! She did very good job on all of my family's clothes that I need to get done for wedding. My dress and my husbands suit jackets!! I don't think I can find any other place like here. I am high Recommending!!! read more

I had some closes need to be short in So I took them to there She did great job. first time I went there She speaks broken english but she is very nice with costumers Best alteration place ever I been read more

I never go out of my way to write a review but the owner destroyed an expensive pair of pants. She crudely hemmed the bottom and when sewing the pockets left huge bumps and bulges. amazed how this place can still be in business. when I questioned the quality she just replied "no money back for u" read more

Gotta love calling to get more information for a job needed done on a shirt and getting nothing. I found this place off of Yelp and decided to call. I asked the individual very nicely if I could speak with someone about the job I'm looking to get done and his reply was "no one was there to help"... My next question was if he knew when someone would be in so I could call back. His response was "nah I don't know that".... Is this place a real business??? Do they want to make money?? Mind blown.... read more

Had curtains shortened. Better price than other quotes. Clean. Friendly. Good communication read more

They did good work before, but now they've changed ownership and management. The previous owners now own a place called Pro Tailor, in Mesa on Baseline and Dobson, so I'm probably going to go there from now on. Not only did the new people raise the prices, they're pretty rude, and take forever to get things done. read more

I came here for a couple of garments (dress and suit) to be altered for an out of town family ceremony. While they were able to accommodate the rush, they charged huge fees. (Over $200). Another suit coat was dropped off and after three attempts, and multiple payments to get what I wanted - they insisted i never asked for what i wanted (4 buttons on a suit coat). They claimed I was wrong and to prove it showed me a receipt written in Korean. When I pointed out that the receipt isn't fair to say "see? It clearly wasn't included?"...they wanted me to take the receipt to a translator. The point is I asked for 4 buttons from the beginning. Initially it came with zero buttons then after paying more, it came with 3. When I brought it back to add one more to make it 4 - they wanted to charge more!! "The customer is always wrong" seems to be the implication. Other customers waiting in line tried to intervene on my behalf to get through to them to no avail. They sighed and said "they're over this" and "it's not big money, you should just pay". I'm not a complainer by nature, but this is really offensive. I encourage you not to use this business, and if you do, speak VERY clearly and do your best to ensure what you want is written on the ticket. If you speak Korean you'll have somewhat less challenges!! Update 1: Ok so while I'm sitting here waiting for two buttons to be sewn on...I heard the English speaking clerk say into Siri on her phone "racist" and later: "greedy". As much as I'm not a complainer by nature, I'm also not paranoid. That said, this is beyond offensive, and I highly caution any potential customers when considering using this establishment for your tailoring needs. Update 2: while sitting here waiting silently for them to sew two buttons on - they're calling an attorney!! They said they have a little issue with the business. Again, trying hard not to be paranoid but this is really out of hand. I never called them a name or got belligerent. Merely reiterating the case that they gave me an estimate, and they're claiming I never asked for buttons. Then when they put fewer buttons than I asked for (and paid for), they are now trying to call for help. If you want this treatment, then this is the tailor for you!! read more

Kim's is beyond fantastic, the service, the price, and the meticulous concentration to detail is a all I have been looking for in a tailor in the south Chandler area. I have used Kim's service multiple times now, and each experience is better than the last, she actually listens to my wants, and provides inside knowledge of what works best for my body type. read more

Fast and friendly, Kim's tailoring has help me with several sewing related things and done a terrific job!

Alterations are custom for fit and style. Always great work and excellent customer service. Thanks.

Based on recent reviews I was a bit reluctant to try this place but I had a dress I needed altered within a week so I decided to give it a try. They were very friendly when I went in and told me they would have no problem getting it finished in the time frame I needed. They did a beautiful job on the tailoring and I will definitely be back. read more

Over the past few years I've put up with their terrible service. They are rude, don't finish on time and charge way to much. It's convenient and they did a good job. I just picked up a jacket where they were suppose to put in a couple hooks and tighten up the buttons. I paid a lot of more and the buttons were not done and she wanted $2. MORE per button!!! I will not come here or recommend them again. read more

My first time here & these ladies are amazing!! They brought my very favorite vintage Diane Von Furstenberg back from the dead!! Now I know where to bring ALL my tailoring-thank you!! read more

I rarely need to have clothes altered, but I had a tank dress and the arms were too large. I admit I waited a couple weeks to try it on, but when I did it was so tight, the armholes were much too small. When I returned to explain they said I should have tried it on immediately, but they didn't suggest that when I picked up my clothes, which I told them. I really didn't expect there to be a problem. After much haggling and the owner speaking very harshly, at least her tone was, her workers communicated what she said in English, she had me try it on so she could see it. She told me I must have gained weight, which I assured her I had not in the last few weeks, and certainly not enough to make the dress fit that tightly in my arms. By the time I left I was exhausted from all the back and forth. The owner just kept making loud, snappy statements while she took measurements. I have a feeling the customer is NEVER right at this establishment and needless to say I'll never go back there again. It's too bad because I want our local businesses to succeed. Very disappointing. read more

Paid $70 to have two dresses altered. Left my phone number on the receipt, which I still have as proof, and they shut down without informing me. I now cannot get my clothing items back and am extremely upset with the company. I had them altered for a special occasion coming up and now I not only won't have them in time, but am not even sure when they will re-open so that I can get my items that I already paid for back. A phone call to alert me that they were closing would have been appreciated. read more

A big no on this place,my dress unbearable will have to go elsewhere, and I saw the results of a poor girls wedding dress,poor tailoring resulted in buckled puckered areas that should have been smooth,it was terrible ,so again I say a big NO to this establishment read more

I went there with my own fabric, asking her to make some curtains for my girls' room. The Dimensions were small 2 windows at 20 in X 20 in, and 3 at 16 in X 16 in. She quoted me at $500. Ha ha ha good one! That's crazy! I don't care how good she is, that's ludicrous! I found someone on Craigslist who did same work for $60. read more

I had bought a casual dress a while back where the length was perfect, but the bust didn't fit. I didn't want to return the dress to the store because I loved the colors, style and length. So for the first time, I sought out a tailor. I decided to give Kim's Tailoring a try since I knew the shop had been there a number of years. When I walked in, it looked as I had expected, with a front counter, dressing room and rows of clothing items. Kim was friendly and knowledgeable in answering my questions, so I felt comfortable leaving my dress with her. She gave me a one week finish date and she was right on time. Best of all, my dress fit perfectly! read more

While Kim is not the least expensive, the quality of the work is excellent. I brought in a sport jacket and when she got finished with it, with only one fitting, it was as if I got a custom tailored jacket. I am not an easy fit, so I was very impressed. I highly recommend Kim. read more

Ms. Kim is the best! I have not found a better seamstress in the valley for everything from suits to jeans, she does it all and very well. Ms. Kim really cares about her customers and their satisfaction to her work. read more

Kim does superb tailoring! Items are ready within a week and her prices are fair. There is no other tailor that compares! Always a pleasure to do business with! read more

Love this place for alterations!! Kim is adorable and she does excellent work. I was able to get it done in a reasonable time frame and very happy with the work that she has done!! Thank you Kim!! I will definitely be back to this business again and I highly recommend everyone coming here too!! read more

A couple of months ago, I took a simple item to be fixed and I was not overly impressed with the end product. I used Miss Kim for the last 10 years and was never disappointed with the work completed. When I took this item in, I was charged more than I've ever paid before, and I was not thrilled with the work. Needless to say, I'm driving the extra distance to get quality work done again...(Kim's) Pro Tailor is at Dobson & Baseline in the NE corner/behind KFC. read more

I'm so glad that I found Kim's Tailoring. I had to get a tuxedo altered & she did a wonderful job. I didn't take her advice on a suggestion she had so I had to bring it back after trying it on for my wife, but Kim was able to do the rest of the work in only 2 days. She was very pleasant and the prices were reasonable. Thanks Kim! read more

Had 2 uniform skirts hemmed and they came out perfectly!! They pressed the skirts and did a wonderful job hemming them that they look better than when I brought them in. Also the pricing and timing was competitive! read more

I was a little nervous based off a few reviews I read that weren't the best but I went out on a limb. I needed 4 different pairs of jeans altered in the waste. Kim was able to see me the second I walked in, pinned all my pants and had them ready for me to pick up in about a week. I did think it was a little pricier than normal but after getting my jeans back today I would pay that price again because she did an amazing job. I really am thoroughly impressed she was able to make them perfect. I had a pair of jeans that were high wasted and they were a size 8 that she basically made a size 2. I will recommend to all of my family and friends! read more

If I could give them NO stars I would! I have been coming here for over 10 years at Kim's, I have always had an excellent experience. BUT now she has sold it to some other ladies. I have been in there a couple times and had not very good experience. The two ladies that alter do not speak hardly any English and cannot understand you so they make me wait in the store until they called their daughter to come in to translate. The daughter who is very young and immature. The daughter came in and immediately stared being defensive and raising her voice . When I brought in the dress over 3 weeks ago It was to big and now they have altered it way to small . I have been in three times for them to get it right but now she cannot make it any bigger because she cut off to much material so now I am unable to wear it. They were trying to talk me into saying that it looked fine when it was obvious it was altered wrong. They also charged me $25 so now I'm out of $25 and a $75 dress. Beware of this place it is bad! Look at there reviews , they say they have been in business since 2006 but they are different owners that just took over the place so look at the more recent reviews. This is the Worst place I have ever done business with. read more
