Alterations done professionally!

I brought in a sequin black cocktail dress for strap alterations. I wanted to take it on a cruise that I was leaving for a week later. Jane is the sweet and friendly employee that helped me right away for the adjustment try on. She advised me that she would have the dress ready in a week. Jane actually called me in 2 days and told me the dress was ready for pick up! This was so helpful so I could pack the dress before my trip. The dress fit great and the price was fair for the work. I have found my new alterations shop!

I have two wedding gowns that need to be shortened. My usual alteration lady either retired or closed after covid. In a pinch, I found Lee Brothers on Yelp. Jane (assuming she is the owner) answered my questions right away. She even reminded me to bring my high heels for accurate measurement. PROS -Nice hemmed work. -She completed the alteration in few days. -Great hours - opened until 7pm and open on Saturday. CON -It was more expensive than I expected. It was almost the cost of the dress. -Cash only

Wedding dress altered by Jane (alterations to length, straps, bust, and waist)

I had a last minute appointment and needed alterations to a pair of pants completed in less than a…read moreweek. Doing a quick Yelp search, CJ Sewing popped up as one of the top rated alterations establishments in Elk Grove. I immediately scheduled an appointment for the following day. Since I was in such a frenzy, I totally overlooked the instructions in Ms. Jackson's (business owner) appointment confirmation email (the email states that you should bring a long sleeve shirt, a belt, and dress shoes if you're having a suit altered). When I showed up to the establishment, I was warmly greeted by Ms. Jackson and her cute furry friend- Sir Winston. As fate would have it, my suit jacket did not require altering; therefore, the belt and dress shoes that I had on were sufficient. Ms. Jackson is definitely a wealth of knowledge and respectfully shared with me that the slim fit suit pants that I had were not appropriate for my athletic build (slim waist & thick quads). However, she walked me through the alterations that she would make that would complement my physique. On the expected pickup date, Ms. Jackson informed me that she would need additional time and could drop the pants off to me later that afternoon . This was not a problem considering that I dropped the pants off at the last minute. Also, I really appreciated her communication. As promised, Ms. Jackson dropped the pants off and they were a perfect fit. Thank you CJ Sewing!

I tried CJ Sewing because of the positive Yelp reviews, but unfortunately my experience was very…read moredifferent. I brought in my maid-of-honor dress for my sister's destination wedding. The color was discontinued, so I asked about adding a corset back and a hem. I was quoted over $375 for those alterations. When I asked about a first-responder discount (because my fiancé is one), she responded by asking whether he was the one with the dress. The comment felt dismissive of the impact first-responder life has on a whole family. I then asked about a graduate-student discount, and she began asking several personal questions about my education. I even offered to show my student ID, to which she said she was "just trying to make conversation" and that she would take $50 off--but the exchange still felt uncomfortable and unprofessional. She scheduled me to return in two weeks for the first fitting, where I would try on the corset and we would mark the hem. However, when I arrived, the corset wasn't completed. She explained she had difficulty finding a matching back panel and ribbon, which I understand since the color was discontinued. What concerned me was that she hadn't sourced materials ahead of time and didn't offer alternative solutions (such as lace) until I prompted her. She even suggested using fabric from the third layer of my dress for the back panel--something that would clearly be visible in photos--and only agreed it wasn't a good idea after I pointed it out. During the first fitting, I also told her that the corset was pinching my back and I didn't like the way it looked. She said nothing and offered no explanation. I later learned that with a corset, you're supposed to shift your back toward the sides to prevent pinching--something she failed to mention, and possibly didn't know. I had also repeatedly struggled with the straps since my first appointment, and instead of offering to re-sew them, she recommended adhesive. When I asked about simply re-stitching them, she hesitated and commented about my "budget," which felt judgmental and unprofessional. She then quoted $40. Because of the missed deadline, lack of proactive solutions, and overall unprofessional communication, I decided not to continue the alterations and returned to pick up my dress. At pickup, I told her I would pay for the work she had completed and compensate her for her time marking the hem. She initially agreed, but then tried to charge me the full cost of the corset--even though it was unfinished. She also tried to charge me for a hem that was never sewn (just pinned). After going back and forth--and telling her I wasn't there to argue--she charged me $25 for the 30 minutes she spent marking the hem and the partial corset work. I ultimately paid $150 for half a corset and pins she removed. Overall, this was a stressful and disappointing experience, and I cannot recommend this business.

I'm in a wedding out of state this summer and the groom is working with a local, family-run suit store that has a measurement form on their website. I wasn't able to get full measurements at two local big box stores (it's been awhile, maybe this is a thing now?) so I decided to seek out a smaller business. I called Old Country Tailor and they picked up after the second ring. I explained the situation and asked if I could come by on my way home in half an hour. They said I could arrive any time and it should only take a couple minutes. There were three customers in the store and I waited only a minute - just long enough to get a glimpse of employees working behind the register among stacks upon stacks of cloth. Seems like they have plenty of work to go around. I was recognized by voice and we started on what I called about. I pulled up the measurement form on my phone, got all my numbers filled out, and was treated like an old friend. When I asked "how much do I owe you?" she refused payment and said "nothing, that wasn't enough work to charge you!" I was having a moderately garbage week at that point and it made me remember there are still good people out there! That being said, I'll definitely go back for more substantial needs in the future.

I have not picked up my clothes. They were very busy and very nice. Don't expect to get things done…read morein a rush. There seems to be a shortage of tailors. I live in the Woodland/Davis area and had to go to Sacramento to get the work done.
