Alterations

Looking to get your pants hemmed?

I tend to charge 25$ per pair, but if they are lined or certain super light fabrics, where I need to do all of the stitching by hand, it might be more. We will discuss before any work is done.

How do I determine this price?
There are several factors that go into determining price. The cost of materials for alterations may seem rather low. I mostly have to maintain a collection of approproately colored thread. Unfortunately the cost of maintaining my equipment can get expensive fast. I recently got my serger repaired because its timing was off and it cost over 150$ and that is just one of my machines. I also factor in the cost of my time. I spend time meeting with potential clients and doing fittings. Measuring, ironing, and sewing hems takes me about an hour for a standard pair of pants. Also since this is a self owned buisness I need to spend time doing all of the other buisness things such as making this website :)

Need mending?

The prices for this can be a lot more variable depending on the materials and the complexity of the problem. If you need anything from reattaching buttons to repairing a seam that has opened up, or replacing a broken zipper, send me a message and we can work together.
