    John Valher Alterations is just perfect…read more Many places offer alterations. Some are in addition to other services - cleaners, bridal dresses, etc. From my experience John Valher Alterations focuses on fixing and creating clothes. The majority of my clothes are custom tailored for me. Shirts, pants, jackets. Jeans are not one of those items and typically they need to be adjusted for fit. For a long time, I have been searching for someone who can do a quality job, in a timely manner, and done so at a fair price. John Valher Alterations is now my go to spot. I picked up four pairs of jeans yesterday and dropped off nine more pairs yesterday. From the moment I reached out (via Yelp), throughout the first measuring, and then scheduling pickup, the process was fast and easy. The shop is somewhat nondescript but it is setup to do what needs doing - altering clothing. Highly recommend visiting John Valher Alterations for your tailoring needs.

    I cannot recommend John Valher highly enough. He altered my dress for my daughter's wedding, and…read morethe work was truly exceptional. The dress needed a complete redo of the bodice because of a unique fit challenge, and he handled it with real skill and care. He changed the neckline and backline, narrowed the straps, form-fitted the bodice beautifully, and hemmed the dress to a lovely tea length. He listens perfectly, and I felt completely at ease throughout the process. When I came in for my second fitting, my dress was already out and waiting for me, which said so much about his professionalism and attention to detail. His kind manner brought a smile to my face, and his prices are much lower than I would expect to pay elsewhere for this level of work. The dress now fits beautifully, and I am so grateful. He is talented, thoughtful, and a pleasure to work with.

    TLDR: expensive, slow, low-quality repairs…read more Roughly 6 months ago I had my shoes repaired here I had a terrible experience. I was inspired to finally write this review because the sole of my shoe has since fallen clean off so my frustration is renewed. I'm no expert, but I don't think 6 months should be the lifespan of a shoe repair. I brought in a pair of oxford docs to be polished and resoled. Notably, there was a crack in the midsole that I requested they repair (I was hoping that they would replace the whole sole but literally just some glue would suffice). They charged me nearly 100 dollars, did not offer me a receipt, and told me they'd call me in about 2 weeks when they were finished. Two weeks came and went and they did not call. So I called them. They stated they did not have any shoes matching my description and asked for information from the receipt (which they never gave me!). Eventually they did find my shoes, but they took another week contact me again. When they did, they told me they had finished my shoes but used the wrong sole, so they would have to redo them. When I finally went in to pick them up, they had totally ruined the finish (gross, thick, gelatinous looking polish), didn't even resole the shoe. They had simply glued new treads on and entirely ignored the crack. I understand that docs can be tricky to resole properly but if they were not able to do what I asked for then they should have a) been up front and b) not charged me 100 dollars. I really regret not saying something....

    These guys did a great job fixing up my boots! The soles were totally disintegrating and they made…read morethem like new!
