Practical Alterations Done With Care

What to Expect From an Alteration Appointment

At Stitch Craft, each alteration starts with a garment inquiry and a careful workshop intake. We look at the fabric, seams, seam allowances, and overall condition so the requested change can be planned realistically.

Common requests include trouser and skirt hemming, waist and side-seam adjustment, sleeve-length adjustment, zipper replacement, and seam or lining repair. The scope is explained clearly, and the price is confirmed after inspection before any work begins.

Every garment is checked for construction, fabric, and fit needs before work is confirmed.

Most appointments include one fitting, with a final fit check at collection. This helps us review the finished garment, confirm the result, and handle any small final adjustment within the agreed scope.

Turnaround usually depends on the garment and the number of adjustments, with standard work typically completed in a few business days. We also provide care and pressing notes so the garment can be handled properly after collection.
