We'll notify you via phone or email when alterations are complete and ready for collection. Our location is easily accessible by public transport (Town Hall Station nearby) and offers nearby parking options. We can also arrange collection times by appointment.

Can alterations be reversed if needed?

Some alterations can be adjusted or reversed depending on the specific work performed. We maintain sufficient seam allowances where possible to allow for future adjustments. However, some alterations (like significant hem shortening) may not be fully reversible. Discuss any concerns about reversibility during your consultation, and we'll explain what's possible with your specific garment.
