City Custom Tailor & Dry Cleaners

I took three pairs of jeans here which needed to be hemmed. I came in and got measured and then came back a few days later and they we ready as promised. The quality of the work is top notch. The jeans look as good as if they were bought new that way. Will be a repeat customer for sure! Pricing is very fair.

This place is great and would recommend. I’ve brought in a bridesmaids dress that needed to be let out in the lining of my dress. Hannah did a great job. I also recently brought in a dress to have the sleeves shortened to ¾ length. I came in at noon and Hannah had it done by 12:30. She’s awesome.

So thankful to find this Tailor! I’m from Boston, here on business and they helped me out in a bind and turned around an emergency request in less than an hour. So incredible!!!

Was new to the city. I am petite and short. I alway need skirts and pants hemmed. I didn’t have a seamstress. As dumb luck would have it, this dry cleaner suggested I get my alterations done there.
The lady is a super friendly Asian lady. She always does the sweet nervous laughs and then asks you when you need it. She recognizes me when I come in now.
She does great work.

I love city custom Taylor. I have been going here for about 10 years. I went one place else, one time lesson learned.

I brought a bridesmaid dress in last summer to have it hemmed and have the bust area taken in. Not wanting to pay an arm and a leg for alterations, a friend recommended Hannah at City Custom.
Hannah charges hemming by the foot (she quoted me $ 20, & there was no lining underneath the dress), and taking in the chest cost $ 25. I believe she offers a 5% discount if you pay her in cash.
Hannah was fantastic, she’s quiet and very friendly.
Other bridesmaids who didn’t go to Hannah said they paid at least $ 30+ for their hemming. Yikes!
I’ll definitely return to Hannah for future alterations!

INCREDIBLE!!!
I took my wedding dress there and she worked a miracle to have it fit, with major alterations with complicated lace. She did it quickly (2 weeks for first fitting, only 1 week for second fitting.) AND the whole thing only cost me $ 50! And she was patient with us when we ran into someone in her store and ended up making her keep the place open an extra half hour. I tried to tip her and she wouldn’t accept it, just said «congrats & enjoy.») I told her I’m going to write her one heck of a review on Unilocal… so here I am. Go there, you won’t be disappointed!

In October, I was in a wedding with a fellow groomsmaid from Seattle. She and I got our dresses a the same small bridal boutique and took them to our own tailors. Hers required rebuilding in a huge way, because her top sizes don’t match her bottom sizes and we ordered for the bigger of the two. Mine needed a length alteration and hemming to the correct length, as well as reattachment of straps to make a halter top.
Grace and Hannah did a PHENOMENAL job on my friend’s dress. My tailor required a nudge three weeks after the due date so I could get the dress on time. My friend’s dress was done in a week and was half the cost of my hemming and strap reattachment.
Fast forward and I’m now getting married. I did not go back to the other seamstress who required nudging and charged me twice what my friend’s did. I went here.
Grace responded to my emails very quickly, addressed my concern that «Do you do wedding dresses?!» with grace, and was a breeze to work with in the shop. I only needed my gown shortened, and they charge by the foot for shortening. The entire alteration for my wedding gown was WAY less than I anticipated or budgeted for, and they had it done in plenty of time for the wedding without nudging.
Thanks, City Custom Tailors!!!

Just tried them out for the first time and had a great experience. I had them size down a dress that I wore while pregnant but is way too big post pregnancy. It’s an inexpensive GAP LBD that I didn’t pay very much for and didn’t want to pay through the nose to get it altered. My friend recommended City Custom Tailor. The women who I assume owns the shop was very nice (spoke English fine) and very polite. Her estimate was $ 18 to alter the dress from size 14 to size 6-​ish, which I think is very reasonable. I dropped off my dress on a Tuesday and it was done by Friday. She only ended up charging me $ 16, so even less than what she quoted me. I would definitely use them again (note, they are moving to a new location soon).

I have been going to City Custom Tailor for years. I have taken everything from a NAU jacket that needed to be re-​shaped to a formal gown that needed to be taken in and the hem taken up, and I have always been thrilled with the quality of the work. The owners are very nice and service is quick, friendly, efficient. They do a brisk business but have always delivered on time. I have changed the way I shop a bit because of City Custom Tailor — I know I can purchase something that I love but might not be «just right» and have it custom tailored to fit me. And there’s nothing like custom-​fit clothing!
Very highly recommend them.

I just had my jean altered here for $ 13 bucks. Sweet!
The lady who works there is very nice and had a great job! It’s just an altered jean but hey, she still deserves a compliment :-)

It’s great to have a tailor of your own. You can pick up an amazing vintage dress, have it altered to fit you, and look like a billion dollars. Or you can pick up a designer dress with a zipper blown out for a steal and have it replaced.
City Custom Tailor does all of my alterations and clothing repairs. They are family owned, friendly, and fast. They can usually get your work done in a few days. It’s about $ 20 to replace a zipper, and it’s very inexpensive for a hem.
Sure, the place isn’t glamorous. Sure, the owners are busy. Sure, the changing room is small. Who cares? The quality is great, rates are resonable, and it’s a classic American mom and pop operation!

YOU PAY FOR WHAT YOU GET!
I have been taking my jeans here for a few months for hemming, on the advice of a friend. The lady is nice, and the price is reasonable. However,
The first pair of jeans I took, she hemmed to short and it just did not look right.
I gave it another chance thinking maybe those jeans were not meant to be hemmed given the style.
Second pair I took, same thing. looked terrible when i got them back.
I cant recall whether there was a third pair.
I won’t be taking any of them to her again.
However the straw that broke the camels back was the dry cleaning. As I pulled out a crisp, white oxford shirt I had recently picked up, i noticed browning at the edge of the collar. I flipped the collar up and it was totally brown, like the shirt had been burnt by an iron. This was my very FAVORITE oxford shirt, and any girl that knows will tell you it is very difficulte to find that perfect white oxford. Not to mention the money involved everytime a dry cleaner ruins another of my shirts.
DO NOT TAKE YOUR CLOTHING HERE FOR DRY CLEANING if you would like to see it back in good condition.
You have been warned.
