I'm a man of short stature with a substantial midsection and am never able finds clothes that fit correctly off the rack. I had been considering several tailors in the cities but decided on John's Tailors based on the many positive reviews and word of mouth. John's Tailors shortened the sleeves on a dozen button down long sleeve shirts. They expertly moved the sleeve placket and shortened the sleeve without any evidence left of the alterations done. I also had them hem several pairs of jeans that were way too long. I will definitely be going back to John's for any future tailoring needs.

Phoned to check availability, told no appointment needed, just to walk in, and get taken care of. Given date work would be completed, and it was done as promised. Looked terrific! Would not hesitate to go back with more tailoring needs.
Description of Work: Tailoring of a new suit coat to be worn as a member of a wedding party. Needed to Shorten the sleeves (a lot--he has long arms--37 sleeve length, and the suit jacket was ordered accordingly...the sleeves came so long that we couldn't see his finger tips!). We had ordered it from a company in California, and time was of the essence, so had it corrected here. Also had the dress pants hemmed.

My husband had hired him years ago for a difficult repair of imported suede-leather-imported cloth artisan rug that my children had ripped. He had done a nice job on that and that is how I decided to look him up for this project. I found him very professional and friendly when I first went in with my material. He brainstormed with me and encouraged me to bring pictures and/or pieces of clothing I had with the style and fit that I had in mind. This was even before I committed to the tailor shop. After I did go with them, I came twice more-- to fit after the outfit was almost done and he made adjustments and at the end for the final fitting where I took home my suit. Each fitting took no more than 15-20 minutes. He had some nice ideas such as a lapel and adding lining which he provided. The suit is very nice and looks well made. Even my husband was impressed.
Description of Work: 2-piece custom-styled suit tailored out of imported material my father had given me as a gift. I decided on a pant suit but wanted one that was female-styled.

No appointment was needed. When I called a lovely woman told me about their store and the hours. I went in for a fitting. They saw and thought of things that would improve the fit and my comfort. I really appreciated their input. They are kind and very professional. I recommend them and will use them again.
Description of Work: They completed alterations on the dress I am wearing to my daughter's wedding and a dress for the Rehearsal Dinner. This involved hemming, side seams and the removal of shoulder pads while altering the sleeve at the shoulder.

Exceptional quality of work and customer service.
Description of Work: I came to John's Tailors with an expensive custom made evening suit that was way too big. The suit was expertly cut down to size, making it not only beautiful to wear, but I also felt comfortable and confident in the suit for the first time. The workmanship and attention to detail were top notch.

I had been searching for a new coat similar to my old favorite, a Steve by Searle full length swing style coat. I have tried to locate a new one for several years with no luck. Even the maker of my original coat no longer makes one like this. I contacted Angies List hoping to find a tailor who could possibly reline and repair my old tattered coat. Thankfully, I received a list of possibilities. The first one on the list, John's Tailors, is located very near my home. The owner is very professional. He asked me to bring the coat into the shop. When he saw it, he suggested making me a new one. He gave me an estimate in cost, and an approximate date for completion. I picked up the new coat today, several weeks ahead of time. It is simply beautiful Except for a nicer shade of green, it is an exact replica of the coat I have loved for years. It fits me perfectly. I am way more than happy with this lovely coat. The price was very reasonable too. I am most pleased to recommend John's Tailors. I plan to have them create some additional clothing items similar to ones I own, and which I can no longer find in stores.
Description of Work: Created a new coat using my old coat as a pattern.

Contacted business and was given general information. Understandable that they would need to see what they were working with before providing an estimate of time and money. The tailor was professional and considerate of how I wanted the suit to fit. Suit and shirts were ready in about 1 week and I am happy with the fit.
Description of Work: Altered new suit and pants and 3 new dress shirts taking in excess material.

My wife and I went to John's Tailors for our wedding alterations. My wife had an elaborate wedding dress that needed to be shortened and taken in. I had a suit that needed a complete fitting. John and his team did an amazing job! They were professional, courteous, friendly, and prompt. They were incredibly knowledgeable, and answered all our questions thoroughly. I highly recommend John's Tailors and will be using them for all my future alteration needs.

I had a jacket that had a zipper that did not work and a down vest where the zipper pull was missing. I brought them in to get the zippers replaced. While I was there, they looked at the jacket and said that maybe they could fix it so i didn't have to replace it. He took it into the back and worked on it for a few minutes before determining that it really was broken. I liked the fact that he tried to fix it before going the replace zipper route. When I picked up the jacket, it had it's new zipper and the work was beautiful. I was very impressed with the work. They also replaced the pull on my vest and gave me a credit back on my credit card.

For my winter wedding in a forest, I'd ordered a beautiful dress online: emerald green lace tiers with a complicated pattern, including scalloped edges. I was lucky that it fit fine, but it was too long. I left messages at a couple places, with no response. When I called John's, the woman who answered the phone was so pleasant and encouraging. I took the dress over that day--ten days before the wedding. I've thought I'm too old and realistic to be a Bridezilla, but I know that I was nervous that the proportions would be wrong and the dress would lose its charm and it wouldn't be ready in time, and so I'm sure I over-explained and asked questions that would have had most tailors rolling their eyes. No eyes rolled (that I could see, anyway!), and everyone was very reassuring and confident that it would look great. And it does! It's perfect. It's exactly the right length, all the tiers are right, the scallops are still scalloped, and I can walk without giving the dress a second thought. Also, I noticed both times I was in the shop that everyone who came in seemed to be a repeat customer--greeted by name, questions about family members, no sense of rushing the person out the door. Everyone at John's is friendly, professional, and competent. What a great find!
Description of Work: He shortened a dress that had several lace tiers and was supposed to just touch the floor (as opposed to tripping me whenever I took a step). Done perfectly, on time, at an incredible price.

I was very impressed with John's Tailors. They were friendly and professional and their tailoring was beautifully done. This is the kind of job that I have had done at various tailors (altering waist on lined pants). Apparently it is a challenging job, because usually the pants look like they've been altered and/or they still don't fit quite right even after the altering. My pants looked beautiful and they fit perfectly. The cost was about the same as what I have paid at other places, for much higher quality of work. I don't plan to go anywhere else and am telling my friends and family about them.
Description of Work: I needed to have the waist of two pairs of lined pants altered (made about three inches smaller).

John's Tailoring provides exceptional customer service. From the moment I walked in the door, I was treated as the most important customer. I received a phone call confirming the alterations on the strapless sundress, since I was initially hesitant about having them done. I am going to use John's Tailoring for my alterations, no, my tailoring, for all of my work.
Description of Work: The alterations are outstanding; my clothing is now tailored to my body as opposed to simply fitting me. The services were done quickly: within six days (over the July 4 weekend). The work done included: A pair of jeans hemmed with a European finish. A strapless, knit sundress taken in through the bodice (essentially remade to a smaller size). Shortening the straps on a sundress.
