I just needed it in around the waist and this place was recommended to me by another cheerleader who had the same problem. The service was excellent and the turnaround was really fast. I only had to wait a few days (though I think that I probably could have got it back faster had I told them I needed it; as it was I said I didn't need it for a few weeks so they could take their time). It wasn't particularly cheap (I think it was £18 to get it taken in) but it is something that I can't do and it's quite a skill so I wasn't too horrified.

I'm not sure that Alterations For U warrants being housed in such a large retail space, but it…read morecertainly doesn't have a great deal of competition in the immediate area... and so may be it does? The fact that they actually perform a lot of the alterations at the shop itself means that a reasonable amount of space is available to them. One thing I love about this shop is that it doesn't beat around the bush. Instead of being coy about prices, they have mounted a comprehensive list of all of the alterations that they do along with the price for each. There are far too many options to mention here, but suffice to say the prices are very reasonable and the scope of what they can do is impressive. They perform alterations for both men's and women's clothing, and they are pretty quick about it too!

Mi Mi is one of a few new businesses on Clifton Street that have opened up despite the new one way…read moresystem that the council implemented about a year ago. In fact, there's a good chance that Mi Mi have opened up in consequence to it! Owing to the fact that this new road system has dramatically adversely affected trade on the street, it has meant that quite a few shop units have been up for lease in recent months. Mi Mi's is an alterations shop that offers ironing services and repairs and so is the kind of shop that can rely on local trade. Hopefully this will mean that it will fare well in this area, regardless of the limited access to the street.. It appears to be a well-run business that has already got its own website and attractive business cards that detail the full services available. It states that Mi Mi's specialise in 'garment alterations and repairs' as well as offering a 'professional ironing service'. It continues... 'Mi Mi will even collect and deliver your professionally pressed garment free of charge from your office or your home'... now that's an offer worth taking up! For the record: I detest ironing!

I've used A Pieri many times from simple to tricky alterations. I asked him if there was anything…read morehe could do to patch a very expensive leather coat I had bought with a sample cut out from the front seam. He managed to match the leather and cleverly replace the missing piece in such a way it looked good as new. He's also repaired delicate chiffon tops for me that I wouldn't entrust to anyone else. Very highly recommended.

I am very happy with the service at this dry cleaners. I recently ripped an incredibly expensive…read moreskirt; luckily the rip was only on the seam, however due to the value of the skirt, I was quite tempted to take it to a specialist in London to be repaired (I daren't say where it's from). Instead I decided to try my luck with my local Johnsons, and could not possibly have been more satisfied with the result. They have repaired the skirt so well that it looks brand new, and no sign of any damage. The service cost about £9, which is absolutely brilliant (it would have cost a million times more in London). Without doubt they have a very talented seamstress here!
