Very Good Tailor for Alteration Needed

[tyor]

Hi,

Can anyone recommend a good tailor for suit alterations? I have a couple of suit jackets that need fitting. I don't want to use just anyone as the suits set me back a few quids.

Thanks

Same here or really in need of someone who can do suit repairs...

There used to be a very good alteration tailor on Saville Row, about half way along at basement level...I had a suit adjusted there a few years ago, and the cost was very reasonable considering location.

Hi

There is a very good Tailor in Walworth Road SE17, George, the needle and stitch man, if interested can get you his No. or try Google?

[tyor]

Thanks Creative Decorating. Found his website via Google. It's www.threadneedlemantailors.co.uk. Thread Needleman Tailors 187a Walworth Road.

I see he has done some work for some celebrities. Hope the cost of the alteration won't be more than the suit itself lol.

Many thanks

Hi

Late reply but i can second George threadneelde . He has altered a shirt for me and is also currently making two pairs of trousers for me (has a deal on his website at the mo) and altering a coat,top service real gentleman and gives sound advice

[Roulade]

Would it be rude to ask what the prices for alterations are in the Thread Needle place on the Walworth Road?

I have a suit jacket that needs the sleeves taking up an inch or so, which probably means the cuff buttons also need to be moved, if not the cuffs retcut to avoid looking stubby.

I've never had any alterations done, so I have no idea what the going rates for these things are. I see a lot of dry cleaners do alterations, but I'd be nervous of taking a nice woolen suit jacket to one blindly, in case it came back *looking* like an alteration. I assume a proper tailor is going to leave it looking like it was made the way they've altered it?

[cf123]

Best give him a call and talk to him he won't be as cheap as a local dry cleaners but you get what you pay for,however he isn't 'row' prices either but has the knowledge of a top tailor

I have had a coat and shirt altered and two pairs of trousers made- very happy with the results

I used to George's a lot for child clothes alterations & prices started from around ?20-25 for basic stuff, I'm guessing it is more like ?30 now but you can be sure of a job well done & he's also a lovely genuine guy.

[Lowlander]

Apologies for resurrecting this thread, any feedback on local tailors? I'm looking to get a couple of pairs of trousers taken up a bit and suit jacket sleeves lengthened (if possible).

Try Rachel 07971637094, she has a studio in Forest Hill & just done some fabulous work for me on some clothes I had frown inwardly of....Fit perfectly now!
