I searched high and low for someone who could do reweaving of multi-color sweaters. This is apparently a lost art! But not at Old Country Tailor. I had several sweaters I inherited from my mom, including a beautiful Dale of Norway sweater that I loved. I have no idea how it go so many moth holes, but I really thought it was a goner. Nope! The women at Old Country Tailor fixed it up and you can't find a single repair spot. It is beautiful. And it did not cost me an arm and a leg. I am incredibly happy and absolutely recommend them for your favorite repairs. read more

I have not picked up my clothes. They were very busy and very nice. Don't expect to get things done in 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. read more

I've been going to Old Country Tailor for at least 5 years, and have always had a very positive experience! Yes, the price is a little high, but the quality and the friendly, knowledgeable owner keep me coming back! read more

I am absolutely not one to leave a negative review, but I feel obligated to inform future brides needing alterations of my experience here. I brought in my wedding dress for an alterations appointment, having explained what I would need done on the phone. At my appointment, I was met with no greeting, a poor attitude from both women working with me, and a very disappointing conversation. They told me that because my dress had boning, it could not be altered the way I wanted it to be. They went so far as to tell me the REAL photos I brought of my exact dress altered the way I was looking for were "fake" (implying they were AI or photoshop), which they were not. They also told me on the spot, that I would need to purchase small pieces of fabric myself to create sleeves for my dress. I had already brought in what would make up the outside of the sleeves, but even for lining, they would not provide any fabric. The way they delivered this information was insulting and condescending, saying "this is a tailor, not a fabric shop". I was irate and felt embarrassed as a result of their attitude. This tailor might do great work for day to day items, but for wedding dresses - something so special and exciting - I would steer clear. The next tailor I took my dress to did exactly as I wanted with no problem whatsoever. A little humility and kindness could go a long way at this business. read more

I've been coming here for my alterations over the last year and have never been disappointed. This is would say the pricing is mid range however they are just so efficient and so kind. read more

I brought a blanket and about 30 fabric patches that I had gotten from various places I had traveled to, or from my childhood. I wanted to start adding them onto the blanket, a souvenir of places I've been. Old country tailor did this. If you plan to do it you probably could attach them (pin them)to the blanket as you would like them sewn on to expedite the process. The charge was about eight dollars per patch. I'm not sure how much it would be to add a few more but I plan to add more to this blanket as I go to new places I will occasionally bring the blanket with new patches. I have also had other clothing alterations done at this location after my long time alteration shop closed. These ladies do a fantastic job !! It's hard to find these kind of crafts people anymore! I recommend them. read more

I do not like to write a negative review because I like to support businesses. However, what we went through with my daughter's wedding dress was unprofessional and shocking. The week before her wedding, she tried on her dress one more time only to find that they had made some mistakes on it. Since they were closed until Tuesday, we had to wait until then to get it taken care of. When she took it in, no apology for their mistake. They told her to come pick it up on Friday, the day before her wedding. When she went to pick it up, it wasn't ready, and there were still problems with it. This was such unnecessary trauma the week before such an important day. They never apologized, they never took responsibility. And they never did do a good job. Perhaps others have had better experiences, but I just really don't want anyone else to have to go through what we did. read more

This place did an amazing job replacing the zipper of my favorite shorts! I dropped them off on a Tuesday and really wanted to have them by that Friday before a trip, and they said they could have it done by then. I was able to pick it up earlier on Friday! They were quick, nice, and efficient. Not to mention a sweet small business. And got them fixed for $35 which is totally worth it for me since I wear these all the time! read more

Fixed the hem of a dress for a reasonable price, great work, and pleasant and helpful customer service. I'll definitely be back.

Very quick turnaround and excellent tailoring service. I would definitely recommend this business.

Amazing Tailors!!! We came to Old Country Tailors to get my husband's suits tailored, and the ladies here are just magnificent with their work! We brought in 2 suits, and my husband Fernando couldn't be happier with how they turned out! We did one suit for a wedding we attended as well as his wedding suit. 10/10 highly recommended!!!! The quality, and how fast they did the alterations was amazing! The customer service is just grea read more

Link to original review here: https://g.co/kgs/c5A8cW It has been six weeks since posting my initial review. The damage done to the dress was corroborated by the business who ultimately had to fix the dress, which included a complete reconstruction of the bodice. Tears in the fabric and breakage to the corset were also confirmed. It also came to light that the threads in the waistband had been pulled loose and never restitched. This is not meant to be an unkind review. I'm sure this business has done well with less complicated sewing jobs. I just would have preferred that they let us know they wouldn't be able to complete the alterations (or communicate what they were doing, as we were never consulted during any of the fittings.) read more

I love this place. The lady's here do amazing work. It's the only place I trust in town for repairs on my selvedge denim. They repaired 3 different pairs for me and their mending work is impeccable. I've taken my jeans to high end denim retailers for repairs before and old country tailor is just as good, if not better! 10/10 will use them again. read more

Kind and respectful women, consulted with me about what exactly i needed to tailor a jumpsuit to my size and got it done fast.

Review #1799 Vera and her team are amazing and I would highly recommend her tailoring services at Old Country Tailor, for last minute, desperate measures. I had a bridesmaid dress that needed to be pulled inwards, shortened from the bottom and added cups to the top. While I paid a whopping $150 for my total alteration service, (yes, this is pretty pricey! My dress price was less than this, LOL) - her work was impeccable. The dress fit like a glove, the hem from the bottom was perfect and my dress fit just right from the top. Again, her services are pretty pricey but you get what you pay for. Vera is very talented. read more

They do good work but it's very expensive. I like Araceli's better. It's a tiny mom and pop shop in a crappy neighborhood but they appreciate the business and do good work and are a third of the price. read more

Haven't gone through my closet and found several items of clothing with minor tears and needing repairs (unintentional rhyme), I settled upon bringing my items to Old Country Tailor. I had two pairs of pants that needed repairing of the waist band and two rompers that needed repairing of the seams. All in all, to repair the four items cost me $70. I was a little sticker shocked but at the same time, I am not able to repair the items myself and was not ready to part ways with them. I told the seamstress no rush and my items were ready two weeks later. I picked them up without issue and the repairs look fantastic. read more

Imagine if you will ordering a wedding dress custom - sending off the measurements and the cash. It comes and it's just - wrong. My poor daughter has this experience and two other alterations places said they couldn't help. And after waiting for a very long time to get the dress - time was rushing to the wedding date. But Old County was recommended and she tried there. It took five fittings and them performing a miracle but today we picked up the perfect dress. They rebuilt the entire dress basically and took a disaster through transformation! We all cried. The ladies at the shop were like angels. Vera was constantly letting us know what they were doing and reassuring us the dress would be beautiful and on time. With two days to spare. Lara our tailor was just fantastic during this entire experience. Anyone dealing with a formal wedding knows the dress is the centerpiece for a bride. Thanks to Old Country our bride feels confident and beautiful. read more

We've used this place a couple times in the last year, mostly for my husband's suits and pants. Service is fast and friendly, and they are excellent at what they do. My daughter recently had her winter formal dress altered here. When we got it back, it was perfect. Sometimes parking can be tricky, so it's best to go at a time when not too many are out and about (avoid after 4:30/it's near Trader Joe's and that parking lot is a nightmare). If you go at like 10 am, there is parking right in front on the street. read more

I like using East Sac businesses and dislike leaving negative reviews, but this is warranted. If this business can't treat their customers better, they do not deserve to be servicing East Sac. I've used this business on at least 6 occasions for myself and my husband to alter pants, dresses and skirts, and I've recommended her to two brides who needed their dresses altered. Both used the business. However, in the past, I've never been treated so rudely by the owner. I assume she is the owner because she is always the person who waits on the counter customers and writes up the tickets and pins the alterations. She is always a bit abrupt, but she is usually pleasant and nice. Not this time. I recently walked in to have pants altered. I walked in with the pants on so I'd be ready immediately. The owner was scrolling through her phone when I walked in and not only couldn't be bothered to look up and greet me , but once she finally asked to help me and I stated pants alteration, without even looking up at me, she swung her arm toward the dressing room and ordered "get changed." Her complete lack of professionalism and personable, friendly service was rude. Frankly, I wanted to walk out then. But I waited. I had the pants on already, which appeared to surprise her. I stepped up to the small stage and she continued to make me wait while scrolling through her phone. This kind of arrogant "you can wait for me because I'm good" attitude is a complete turn off. No one wants to be treated like this and no one wants to wait on you while you're scrolling through your phone. Have the courtesy to greet your customers when they walk in the door. And, if you are not busy, wait on them. I will not be back for your rude treatment. As it is you have limited hours, you take a long time to get the work done, and you ask customers to prepay. We all put up with this from professional, polite businesses, but not from arrogant, rude businesses who lack customer service skills. read more

Excellent service, skill and quality, fair pricing. My daughter's wedding dress needed to be let out and they did an absolutely perfect job! All smiles on her wedding day :-) read more

I needed a top altered for a special event this weekend. The back of the top was longer than the front, and the sleeves had a ruffle but a longer piece on the back of the sleeve, didn't like that either. Didn't seem to difficult. I was measured, then was in sticker shock at the cost but I needed the top and then had to wait over 2 weeks to get it. I went to pick it up and didn't look at it until I got outside and only bc of traffic, couldn't get into my car, I was floored when I looked at the sleeve and there wasn't any ruffle. I flew in and questioned what on earth happened and they were all confused as to where the pin had been placed on the sleeve, one of the employees said it will cost me more to have the ruffle put back on, thank god they still had the ruffle. I said you have to be kidding that I'm going to pay more for something that was originally discussed, they said they would fix this and I could pick up the next day. So I picked it up, I should have tried it on bc the front was too short, I knew they had to make it a hair shorter to even up with the back but I don't think they took into consideration that the top would be even shorter bc of my bust and the back hem kinda fluttered out, not sure how to explain but from the side it looked horrible; they ruined my top. I spent close to $100 for the top and $50 to alter and it's ruined plus they caused me enough stress that I felt sick. I would never recommend this shop, ever. Susan Estes I was wrong, the cost was $58, not $50 read more

Wow, the talent & customer service here is beyond astonishing! Busy for a reason, and the team works well together to meet customers needs. Appreciate the fact that the shop smells pleasant and my garments don't go home with an unpleasant odor. That was one of the reasons I was looking for a new alterations shop. My dress was pricey and very delicate but Old Country Tailor treated it with utmost attention to detail. So thankful I have found you! read more

Over the past 4-5 years, I've had well over 20 items of clothing tailored at Old Country Tailor. These items included suits, sport coats, blazers, trousers, and shirts. On every occasion I've visited, I was carefully measured and the tailoring was perfect. It can be a bit difficult to find a parking spot but don't let that dissuade you from bringing your clothes in need of tailoring to Old Country Tailoring. It's the best shop in the Sacramento area. read more

Vera and her team are phenomenal. They do great work at a fair price. Took some clothes to another tailor and regretted it immediately. Had to have Old Country Tailor redo it. They have a customer for life. read more

I brought my dress here about 3 weeks before my wedding and the ladies altered my dress with record speed! Not only that, my husband also came a day before our wedding to get his suit jacket altered.

Vera and Lorysa were great! They tailored 2 wedding dresses in a pretty quick turnaround time. They executed the alterations in time for the most part and were able to make adjustments as needed. We did have to go back several times, but it was understandable for the complexity of the job. Their prices are fair, but things like complex hemming and taking in fine fabrics is expensive!! Despite that, I would recommend this shop. read more

They are definitely very busy but they did a really good job on my bridesmaids dresses. Would recommend to anyone. They did the two dresses on the right of the bride and I feel like they look great on us read more

When I need my suits fully tailored this is the place I go to. They have even done some custom work on some shirts I had as well. The work is always do professional and right and on time as stated. Now they make masks which are awesome. If your in a time crunch they can also work with your time line for a fee. I really like this place. read more

Old Country Tailor - Suit Tailored nicely. - Sewing & Alterations Near Me - Sacramento, California

I wanted to like this place as it came highly recommended. I went to get a bridesmaid dress altered. I should have known this place wasn't ideal when the woman commented that the reason my dress won't stay up is because "I have flat, smooshed boobs and no figure" After getting it all fitted and going to check out, the woman told me the alterations would cost $300. I was appalled. The dress itself was only $130, and the alterations were minimal. I politely told her that I would take the dress elsewhere to get it altered, to which she replied "good luck finding another place that's cheaper." I did end up finding a much cheaper place. Lee Brothers Tailor had phenomenal customer service and tailored the dress for $85. read more

Went to have pants hemmed. They hemmed the pants too short. Did not realize till I got home. Went back to ask them to correct and after marking them she indicated that she would charge me 1/2 the price of the original hem job. I told her I was not paying to re-work a bad job. She would not correct. I walked out. When I went to file a dispute for the charge, I also found they had charged me $29 not the $12 I was quoted day of work, nor the $16 she said was the cost (when she offered to charge me only $8 to fix, 1/2 the cost). I have had many pants altered and never had to pay for an incorrect hemm job. Find another tailor that is willing to correct issues. I will never go back. read more

I have had a few several items tailored with Old Country Tailor over the past few months, mostly work clothes. I have enjoyed how fast & easy their services have been. In fact, I was particularly impressed with how nicely they managed to shorten the sleeves of a blazer I brought in by reducing it at the shoulder. Will be visiting them again! read more

BRIDES BE WARE!!!! This place is a SCAM! They charge full service tailoring prices but aren't actually doing the work! My sister was devastated to discover on her wedding day that an entire layer of her dress still was being held up with nothing more than a row of safety pins which shown through and made her outer layers bunch up. If we had taken the safety pins out then, that layer would have been way too long so we had no choice but to leave the pins in. When we called Old Country Tailor the next business day after the wedding they said that there's nothing wrong with that. My mom told them she's not happy that "we didn't get the service we paid them $500 for which was to SEW the dress". Rather than apologize or offer a partial refund for the mistake, the owner said there was nothing wrong with it and threatened my mom before hanging up the phone on her! :0 They obviously don't care about their reputation, their customer's satisfaction, or doing quality work. Please support businesses who are friendly and genuine! Old County Tailor is far from it. STEER CLEAR!!!! read more

The quality of their work and communication was great. I was put off by the staff not wearing a mask indoors though.

I was really disappointed in the customer service. The staff were rude and ignored customers. The woman working told multiple people she could not do the work they asked for-- one was just taking in a pair of pants. I would not return. read more

I had a last minute panic, I needed some pants hemmed same day. Old country Taylor was able to see me as soon as I called, and they had the pants hemmed in less than an hour. Great fit, and reasonably priced. Overall great service! read more

I love this place! I was looking for a place to get my wedding dress tailored so I brought in a jean skirt and a pair of pants to have taken in and hemmed to see how I liked their work. Everything came back perfect. I brought in my wedding dress and she shortened 6 layers of tulle (including removing the tulle train), tailored the lace on the bust, and changed the ribbon on the waste to an ivory one. Total was $330. I liked my dress before but I LOVED it after and I have Vera to thank for that. I also brought in my bridal shower dress because I didn't like the sleeves. Alterations for that alone were $40 but beautifully done. They are expensive, which can be hard to justify, but they do consistently good work. If you want garments that are still strong after they're tailored then I recommend this place. read more

This is a revision from a previous post. While this tailor shop provides good quality, it is VERY expensive. Granted, price is not the only factor (quality, cleanliness, customer service) are also very important. But given that this is probably the most expensive tailor I have been to, four stars seems more appropriate. When you go to a tailor, or most any business, if you feel like you are getting more than your money's worth, then it deserves five stars. In the case of this tailor, its good quality but also a high price, so that value is not great. I brought two pairs of wool dress pants to Old Country Tailor recently after another tailor shop botched a previous pair of pants. I found the shop on yelp, from its strong reviews. I have only been here once but so far-so good. Old Country is a tailoring only shop, which I appreciate. The two pants that I had hemmed were done very well. The quality of the stitching was obvious and was done exactly as I asked. The customer service is good, everyone has been friendly. I don't know if my current 5-out-of-5 stars will hold up, but I expect to come back for more tailoring work. read more
