Clothing alterations in Tomball, TX

Common requests
People often bring in garments for:
- Hems on trousers, skirts and dresses
- Taking in or letting out at the waist
- Sleeve length on jackets and coats
- Repairs such as loose seams, split linings and replaced buttons
Ask about anything not on this list.
How to get the best fit
- Bring the shoes. Trouser and dress hems depend on heel height. Bring the pair you will wear most often.
- Think about the undergarments. What you wear underneath changes how a dress or fitted shirt sits.
- Say how you will wear it. A jacket worn over a sweater needs different room than one worn over a shirt.
- Mention deadlines early. If you need a piece for a wedding, interview or event, say the date when you drop off.
Clean it first or after
If the garment is also due for cleaning, mention it when you drop it off for alterations and ask how to sequence the two for your piece.

I’m convinced these guys are the only cleaners left that can actually heavy starch a pair of jeans. Their heavy option is HEAVY, we don’t even bother trying the extra heavy, I don’t think we’d be able to get his jeans apart lol
