Questions we're asked

Anything not covered here, call 916-988-8822 — someone in the shop can answer it.

Do you serve Sacramento?
Yes — we're in Sacramento ourselves. Our shop is at 8889 Greenback Ln, Orangevale, CA 95662, inside Sacramento County. Neighborhoods with a Sacramento address are ten to twenty minutes west, and downtown is roughly twenty-five via Highway 50 or I-80. Customers come to us from across the Greater Sacramento area, including Sacramento, Citrus Heights, Fair Oaks, Folsom, Roseville, Rancho Cordova, Carmichael, and Granite Bay.
What kinds of alterations do you do?
Effectively all of them. Wedding gowns and bridal parties, suits and tuxedos including shoulder work, evening and formal dresses, denim, leather and suede, military and service uniforms, shirts, coats, heirloom restoration, and bespoke commissions. If a garment can be worn, we can alter it.
How much do alterations cost?
It depends on the garment and the work involved, so we quote after seeing it — usually on the spot. We don't begin work until you've agreed the price. Call 916-988-8822 or walk in during opening hours.
How long do alterations take?
Most standard work is finished inside a week, and small repairs and simple hems are often same-day when the schedule allows. Express turnaround is available by arrangement — call with your date and we'll tell you what's possible. Bridal and structural jacket work is planned around the event, since it runs through multiple fittings.
Do I need an appointment?
No — walk in during opening hours: Monday to Friday 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM, Saturday 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM, closed Sunday. For a bridal fitting, call 916-988-8822 first so we can keep the time clear for you.
