Any piece of clothing coming in for Alterations or repair work must be freshly laundered or previously unworn.

Any item that is soiled, smelly and dirty, that has bio-hazardous or flammable material on them including blood, semen, vaginal discharge, poop, urine, solvents, grease, mud or anything I don’t want to handle will be returned to the client or professional cleaned at an additional charge

  • by hand: starts at $15, this includes sewing on button(s), hooks and eyes, snaps, etc; darning holes, resewing seams

DO YOU FIX/ REPLACE ZIPPERS?

Sometimes a zipper can be fixed by replacing the pull part of the zipper.

If the zipper is damaged: missing teeth, is melted, or the bottom of the zipper is damaged, these cannot be repaired; the entire zipper must be replaced.

I replace zippers in everyday garments including jeans, pants, dresses, skirts, etc.

Zipper prices for everyday wear garments

  • To replace the pull: starts at $15, double pulls: $20

  • To replace the entire zipper in everyday garments starts at $30 and goes up depending on length and complexity

Ski/Outdoor Wear

I sometimes replace zippers on ski jackets and pants. The items must be freshly washed for me to do so. Any unclean item will be returned to the client.

Prices for zipper replacement on ski/outdoor wear starts at $3.25/inch, so a 30" zipper would have a starting price of $97.50

I do not replace zippers on tents, sleeping bags, backpacks, upholstery, couch cushions, pillows. Please contact me for a referral
