Flat Rate Women's Alterations Pricing
Our pricing is consistent across the board. We feel our pricing is competitive considering we offer a 2 year guarantee, 2 year maintenance, money back guarantee* and considering we are located in a Class A Office Building on Fifth Avenue in Midtown Manhattan near Grand Central and Rockefeller Center. Pricing on hand made garments and outerwear may fluctuate slightly. Please note that our pricing will be higher than local dry cleaners or local seamstresses, but our primary focus is on quality and fit, not price.
