My bf had to get his suit pants tailored and I was searching high and low for a place that was trustworthy. Several other places had about 4.5 stars out of 7 reviews. I read the reviews and most of them were about the workmanship not being on par.
I read the reviews about Magic Cleaners and about the fiesty Asian owner, Diana. I took my bf's pants and drove over to meet Diana. She explained that she can adjust the pants, however, it is best to get an exact measurement rather than "guesstimating". She asked me if it this was going to be a rush order. I said yes, I need it by tomorrow for a wedding we're attending. She told me to go home and measure my honey's waist and inseam so I can give her the exact measurement. As long as I go back on Saturday before 11am, she can rush the order for us! She also gave me a lot of pointers as to how to shop for a suit and what to look for, etc.
I loved the fact that she was honest. She asked me questions about an older pair of suit pants that my bf wanted to get adjusted. (We had to loosen the waistband) She said that the furthest she can expand was 33.5 inches and if his waist is wider than that, then it's best to get a new pair. It wasn't that she didn't want to adjust it, she said it would be a waste of our money.
The next day we came back at 11am, but this time I let her measure his waistline. She gave us a quick version of the explanation she had given me the day before and told us that she would have it ready by 3pm for us. We quickly said our goodbyes and we were on our way to run other errands. At 4pm, my bf went to pick up his pants, we didn't bother to try it on because we trusted her work. It was just a feeling we had :) At 6:30 pm, we showered and started to get ready for the wedding. He put his pants on and it fitted PERFECTLY! I was so happy with her work. My bf and I both agreed that we're going to go to her from now on for all our dry cleaning and alteration needs. She may be a bit out of our way, but she is worth every mile because she goes out of her way for her customers. read more
