She picks up the phone promptly and was on time to my appointment. She completed the alterations on my non-traditional shorter wedding dress on time (2 weeks). She helped bring in the waistline, bring up the straps, and shorten the lining to reveal more of the lace for $100. Just remember to bring cash! You can pay some or all upfront and the rest when you come back to pick up the dress! read more

Parks Alterations BE AWARE BRIDES! THE WORST EXPERIENCE!! She is rude and disregard's your concerns! She rushes you through every fitting and doesn't give you your space in the fitting room. She worked on my daughter's wedding dress and on the last fitting the bustle was silver on an ivory dress. She left loose buttons on the back of her dress, when I asked her regarding the loose buttons she kept telling me I was too picky and that I worried too much AND DISMISSED MY CONCERN AND REFUSED TO REPAIR THE LOOSE BUTTONS. She kept telling me it was not loose all I had to do was stretch the dress and string inside dress and it would be fine, while she was telling me that she kept tugging/pulling on my daughters wedding dress. I informed her I was going to return with the dress if that was not the case and her response was NO YOUR NOT, YOU ARE NOT COMING BACK we kept going back and forth. I brought the dress home and sure enough that is not the case. The buttons are LOOSE AND DANGLING! Also, when I called her with questions or concerns she would tell me not to be calling her because she was busy. Horrible customer service! I PAID HER ALOT OF MONEY AND WAS SO DISAPPOINTED with her services and attitude. HORRIBLE OVERALL EXPERIENCE. WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND HER! RUDE AND EXPENSIVE! I took my dress to CK Elegant Woman Alterations to redo the bustle. What a wonderful experience, he took his time to explain everything down to the minimal detail. He was very detailed and guided me through the process on how to bustle my daughter's wedding dress. I would definitely recommend CK ELEGANT WOMAN ALTERATIONS. I give him a 5 star! read more

Good quality alterations with friendly and speedy service! I went to Park's alteration after my regular go to tailor was unable to complete a last minute alteration. Not only was my request for a last minute alteration (suspenders from a jumper that were too long) done perfectly but they were completed same day. I had a bit of a hard time finding the shop and was especially impressed that the owner walked out of the store to flag me down and direct me to the correct building. Parking is available up front on Shaw street. read more

Park's Alterations - Sewing & Alterations Near Me - Fresno, California

Brides Beware!!! Came very highly recommended from a friend and I entrusted her with my wedding gown although the quote was extremely high! I wanted a few things done that potentially warranted such a fee so I committed to Park Alterations. I had to go in for a couple of fittings. The second time, I gave her my requests on the shortening of my train. She proceeded to tell me "you do not want to do that, No one does it this way " she was rushing me out and saying "you do it this way, come back next time and then we will try on again and you will see." The following time I returned - she also rushed me to try on and would not listen to what I wanted done. Essentially she bustled my gown and did not do what I requested. ( which was most of the work and cost would have been in doing this alteration) This was 2 weeks before my wedding. She did not do the work of a $500 alteration fee. When I told her I was unhappy with the service she basically made excuses and said oh well. Wow!! Very disappointed!!!!! No-one should be treated this way for a service that is so important. read more

I am very late to this review as I got married nearly a year ago. But I just wasn't an active yelper back then. This place was recommended to me by the shop where I bought my dress. I had a specific vision that just didn't seem to exist in reality, and they were able to make it come to life. The price was extremely fair as well. I only wish she would come into the 21st century a little bit and accept other forms of payment besides cash, and begrudgingly checks. She also writes her receipts in triplicate and then keeps them all in an envelope, which almost made her think I still owed her money because she couldn't find my receipt. So an electronic organization system could do her a lot of good. But overall, 5 stars for quality of service, product, and affordability. read more

Park's Alterations - My green bridesmaid dress, altered by the seamstress to lower the neckline, add puff sleeves, and add the embellished waistband. - Sewing & Alterations Near Me - Fresno, California

This is my go-to tailor in Fresno. She makes my suits fit perfectly and is always on time!

I have had the pleasure of entrusting them with several pieces, and each time I've been thoroughly impressed with their attention to fit/detail. Beyond their skill, Park's Alterations also excels in customer service! They are friendly, attentive, and genuinely care about their clients' satisfaction. read more

I have used Parks alterations twice now. My first experience was back in 2019. It was pleasant and that's why I returned. The pros - She does a wonderful job, she's good at what she does. She finishes on time/ the day she quoted you. The cons - My second time with her was not good. I brought in a bridesmaid dress that needed to be hemmed up and to let out my dress since the dress was too tight. She originally quoted me $120. When I went in to pick up my dress she said it'll be $150. I told her that's not what she quoted me when I dropped it off. She said because of the lace work it's more. That's unprofessional on her part. Since my friend's wedding was only days away I just paid her and left! If she wanted to charge more she should've called me to get my approval first. I don't recommend this place and I won't be returning. Also a simple hem on jeans she charges $40. I can find someone else for cheaper. read more

They ruined all my jeans. I took about 8 pairs of boot cut jeans to them to get them hemmed and when i got them back i noticed they made the boot very wide. Also they only accept cash. read more

Park's Alterations - Sewing & Alterations Near Me - Fresno, California

My daughters had their prom, concert, and evening dresses alter here. Skilled artisans. Beautiful work every time.

The owners are a very sweet foreign couple. I've used them for years and am never disappointed. They do not accept credit card so make sure you have plenty of cash. My deposit to have my wedding dress altered was $100. read more

I was very disappointed. Paid $80 to simply hem and fix a thin ribbon strap. I'm willing to pay more for a job well done. But when we picked up and I asked if the dress should be tried on, she said no it will be fine. Get home only to find the strap had never been done. Paid $5 for someone else to fix it. read more

I have taken all my suits (M-28) and she has flawlessly and continually perfected the fit each and every time without showing any marks of alteration. She's the only person I'll go to. read more

I've been going to Mrs. Parks since I was in high school for all my formal and prom dresses. She has a wonderful eye for the little touches that always help with alterations. Pricing is great and she works well if you're on a time crunch. I once took her a bridesmaid dress with 48 hour notice and she was incredibly flexible and helpful! Highly recommended and again high praise for the quality. Cash or check only also! read more

When I want to get fitted I don't go anywhere else. This place does great work. Clothes don't make the man but they sure help him look good.

The reason why I'm giving this place one star is because I have been here before and I never made a hassle about pricing or any payments because I appreciate how much time and effort it takes to alter or sew a garment. When I walked in, she refused to give me a price on what I had asked because she assumed I would say that it was too expensive. I told her to give me a starting price and she continued to say that she was too good and charges a lot. I told her that I am willing to pay, but she told me I would be better off buying a cheap skirt. It's upsetting because I have an emotional connection with the material I brought to her and that is why I wanted to use the specific material. She didn't have a problem with the material, she just profiled me and assumed that I could not pay. She was very rude and she gave herself good credit. I believe in karma and she will get hers coming to her because of the way she made me feel. read more

I never would recommended this shop to anyone the owner lady she's very rude the 1st time I took my dress there wasn't even done getting dress and she open the curtains. Not to mention she was pissed when I said I just want a consultation first. And I called her and ask her for a free consultation before heading to her shop and my friend heard her say is free over the phone. But after she try to bully us to get our business. Well it work I gave her the benefit of the doubt my dress fit perfectly when I went in and I told her I just need the bottom trim and hem since I'm 5'3 and dress was made for someone 5'9. She told me that my top of the dress is too loose so she need to sew in a little. I told her but it would be too tight she said no trust me it would look good. So when I went to pick up my dress she sew it in too much of course it didn't fit. And she start mentioning that I said I was gonna loose weight 1st off that was a convo with my bff and not her. 2nd my dress fit me perfectly n she ruin it. Then she start being dramatic and don't want to fix my dress and said I can't close the back I need to take it out. Um no, I told her and she got mad at me and again open my curtain in front of all the 2 stranger in her little office n in front of my cousin while I'm half naked. For one she could of add lace if she let out my dress she'll ruin the rhinestone all around the belt. 2 she already mess up enough I'm not giving her another chance to mess it up. And she was refer to us by The Little Black Dress shop. Save your money she's not worth your wedding mess. I would give her negative star if I could!! read more

I have taken my stuff to them before and they do the best work in the valley.. but over the years their turn around times have expanded from just a week now to over a month in many instances and yes, the lady that runs it now can come across as rude. They also charge bay area prices for alterations in the valley which is a lot. Expect that when you have the sides of a jacket taken in they will try to get away with charging you as much as $60-$80 (where $30 is the standard for most tailors out here).. add to the expensive nature of their charges that their turn around times are some of the worst in the valley and their service is one of the worst (I have seen her haggle with someone over price being the person was just trying to understand what the price would be and she literally took their clothes off the hangers, handed it back to the individual and told them they can go. This individual was by no means rude or abrasive), the quality of their work does not override all the other factors. I would recommend to skip them and find somewhere else.. read more

I will never recommend or use this business again. I took 4 pairs of women dress pants in to be taken in. Kay fitted them on me. When I tried them on 2 fit ok, the other 2 were still too large. I contacted Kay and had me bring them in and refit them...she advised me that she was going to charge me again for one of them and not the other. I asked her why and the answer was that she now had to take them in on the sides, she is the fitter, shouldn't she have fitted properly the first time? When I picked them up the second time again, one is good the other is really a bad fit. I said "thank you" and left. Never again....will look for a more proficient alteration person closer to my home. read more
