Everything was fine. She's a bit short in her manner of speech, but the work was excellent. She knows her stuff.

Description of Work: I had several garments altered. It's difficult to find anyone to do this work,(anything more than hemming) much less competently. Lisbon Court Taylors are not cheap and you will have to wait a while for your garment because they are very busy. They did rush one garment for me for a wedding. I would definitely use them again, but I'm going to try to plan ahead, not a rush job.

Description of Work: Altered a leather coat. It was almost two sizes too large. The alteration was perfect - you couldn't tell it was altered and it fit great.

I have taken in my clothing for alterations to Lisbon Court Tailor for 20 years. They give the cost up front and the job is always done on the date they tell me. Always available whenever I come in to personally measure for the alteration I request. Friendly and reliable.

It went fine. I would have liked to better understand their rates. It seemed as if $50 was just a random guess. However it was just stated to me by another woman that didn't measure me, so it was just odd.
Description of Work: I took a formal dress in for minor alterations. I needed a hook on the back and some taking in under the arms. I also asked for the dress to be cleaned up along the hem line. I didn't expect 50 for that but was pressed for time. I got the dress back and the alterations were good but the hem line wasn't cleaned at all. I cleaned it at home by myself after looking into the fabric and how to spot clean it.

I brought the pants in on 3/28/13, and I was originally told they may not be ready until around April 24. I expressed a little surprise by the amount of time it would take, and they got it done A LOT quicker (they were ready by Apr 4).
Description of Work: Had two pairs of pants tailored. Both pants legs needed to be taken up about an inch.

Whenever we've brought garments in for alteration, we've been received cordially and professionally. We've been told upfront what the charge will be, and that amount has never been altered. We've been given a receipt that tells us when the garments will be ready for pickup, and generally we've found that they're ready even before that date. In all these years we've had only one job that had to be redone -- a difficult zipper which they replaced beautifully free of charge. Other than that all the work they've done has been perfect. I can't imagine a better experience.
Description of Work: I can't say enough for Cindy and Lisbon Court Tailors! They've been our only tailors for many years, so I'm long overdue in writing a review. Both my husband and I are short, so most of the time we need garments shortened. But we've also had zippers replaced, pants taken in or let out, etc.

Lisbon Court Tailoring altered one pair of dress slacks for my Father-in-Law's suit, and added shoulder pads along with shortening a skirt and pants for a suit for my Mother-in-Law. The work was done very well and in a professional manner. I would definitely use them in the future.

If you need a quality tailor for easy alterations at a reasonable price, she is great, and I highly recommend Lisbon Court Tailors. She is always pleasant and gets things done on the dates that she promises. However, this tailor is not fashion-forward. Therefore, she accomplishes the function of what you want in an alteration at a reasonable price, but the "style" or "appearance" of the alteration is not always exactly what you might hope. I spend a lot of money on clothes and need everything tailored to fit my body (I am smaller on top than bottom, with a very small waist but larger posterior and thigh). I will not take clothes here that require even slightly complex tailoring b/c I won't get the right "look." Only use her for hemming or replacing a zipper, etc. ("just the basics").
Description of Work: I have used Lisbon Court Tailoring on innumerable occasions. Alterations include: taking in dresses at the waist, shortening dress straps, taking in pants at the waist, altering women's tops, jackets, etc.

Cindy at Lisbon Court Tailoring is very customer focused. I was able to get my clothing in that week and they told me the suits would be ready in 2 weeks. To the day, they were ready in 2 weeks! The work that was done was perfect. I would highly recommend Lisbon Court!
Description of Work: Fitted 3 women's suits and 1 lined pair of pants.

These seamers were capable of altering a difficult fabric and altered this garment while maintaining its artistic quality.
Description of Work: Shortened a dress of hand-loomed material. Was able to do this on a loosely-loomed fabric; did hemming successfully without "bunching" hem and with installed facing on hem. I could not have imagined how to cut, fold, and sew this fabric without ruining the look of the dress.

I brought the coat to the location and said that the coat was unwearable because it was so long. I said that the coat was meant to be worn forever and absolutely had to be shortened, perfectly, by competent tailors. The business had many completed garments on display; I saw wedding dresses, leather outerwear, and professional garments. I really crossed my fingers; I wanted this coat to look perfect, the right length and technically perfect. The coat means a lot to me and I want to wear it forever. A staff person "hung" the coat on me and made sure the proposed length was to my liking. I picked up the coat, on the promised date; it was perfect. The coat does not look like it has been altered at all. The lining is perfect, the stitching is perfect, the length is perfect. This place was a real "find" for me and I will use them for any garment that really has a value.
Description of Work: They shortened a heavy woolen overcoat. The coat was made in Ireland, of heavy wool tweed; it has detailing and is an "investment garment".

I HAVE TRUSTED LCT FOR YEARS FOR ALL MY ALTERATIONS. TYPICALLY I USE THEM FOR HEMMING PANTS. IN THIS CASE I HAD THEM ALTER A BRIDESMAID DRESS FOR ME. THE DRESS WAS ORDERED TWO SIZES TOO BIG, AND I WAS VERY IMPRESSED THAT THEY WERE ABLE TO FIX IT TO MAKE IT APPEAR NORMAL.
