Alterations Explained Clearly

What to Expect From a Garment Alteration Visit

We begin with a garment inquiry and an intake review so the tailor can assess construction, seam allowances, and the condition of the fabric. This helps us confirm what can be adjusted and what should be left unchanged.

After the assessment, we explain the alteration scope in plain language and confirm the price and completion date before work begins. Common requests include hemming, waist and side-seam adjustment, sleeve-length changes, zipper replacement, and seam or lining repair.

At Stitch Craft, every alteration starts with a close look at the garment, the fabric, and the requested fit before any work is confirmed.

Once the alteration is approved, the garment moves into workshop work and a quality check. If a final fitting is needed, we review the result at collection and handle any small agreed adjustment with care.

We also provide care and pressing notes so you know how to handle the garment after collection. For the best result, book ahead and bring the item in good time before you need it.
