Open as usual today after a short break.

Please note that I currently have a LOT of work in ( I know, not helped by me having just had another holiday 🙄 ).
Any work coming in from today will be almost 3 weeks before I get to it.

Also note that I do not provide a ‘fitting service’ so it’s helpful to know your requirements up front.
I work on the basis of following your instructions agreed upon when you drop your items off.

Why don’t I do a ‘fitting service’ ?
Well, because it’s just me, on my own doing everything. It’s only a small workshop and I don’t have the space for changing facilities.
This works well for 98% of my customers and I’m generally very busy with alterations.

** Information About the Shop **
Please try to plan ahead for your alterations where possible.

On a normal day I have up to two weeks of work in the shop to get through before I get to yours. I operate on a simple queueing system and everyone joins the back of the queue.

I DO NOT have changing facilities in the shop and as such I do not provide a fitting service. My customers generally know their requirements and I work to specific instructions agreed at the time of ordering.

** A Little Information About the Shop **
Please try to plan ahead for your alterations where possible.

On a normal day I have up to two weeks of work in the shop to get through before I get to yours. I operate on a simple queueing system and everyone joins the back of the queue.

Most recently I’ve been inundated with work and unfortunately I’ve not been able to fit everyone in.

The next two and half weeks I’m flat out clearing that backlog before my holidays. Therefore work coming in from today will be scheduled in for my return in mid July.

Wedding and Prom season prep is in full swing. 💃 🕺

I’m flat out and fully booked up for the next month with alterations.
Sorry if I’ve not been able to fit you in but I’m working overtime to ensure everything is completed on schedule.
If any availability comes free I’ll post here.
