Serving Fair Oaks

Alterations for Fair Oaks.

Eight minutes north of Fair Oaks Village. Close enough that people bring us a single pair of trousers, which is exactly how we'd like it.

Fair Oaks sends us a lot of everyday work — hems, waists, zippers, repairs — alongside the bigger jobs. That's a good sign. A shop worth using for a wedding gown should also be worth using for a hem.

We also see a steady flow of restoration work from Fair Oaks: vintage pieces, inherited garments, and well-made clothes from decades ago that are worth keeping in service.

Take Hazel Ave or Sunrise Blvd north to Greenback Lane. Walk in during opening hours or call 916-988-8822.

Eight minutes from the Village

North on Hazel Ave or Sunrise Blvd to Greenback Lane. Parking at the door.

No job too small

A single hem gets the same attention as a bridal commission. Small work is welcome and quick.

Restoration work

Vintage and inherited garments brought back into service rather than retired.

Bringing older garments back

Clothes made thirty or forty years ago were frequently built better than what replaced them — heavier cloth, real seam allowance, construction meant to be repaired rather than replaced.

That makes them worth restoring. Resizing, relining, replacing a failed zipper, rebuilding a worn cuff or collar, or updating a dated silhouette will often get another decade out of a garment that's already outlasted several newer ones.

Bring it in and we'll tell you honestly whether the fabric will take the work.
