COVID-19 Timeline: Same policies since 1991 – Nothing changed, only sooner 🙂
It depends. We help our clients ask a lot of questions. It’s our belief that it would help demystify your experience with a good seamstress.
At Cheung’s Tailor Alterations we pride ourselves on a quick turnaround. We understand you brought in an article of clothing or fabric hoping to have it sooner than later. Even those prepared may need last-minute tailoring.  If you haven’t already please read our expedited services check it out. Many seamstresses may hold your garment for either hours or week/s. It would depend on the type of services you seek from our seamstress.
Our general service is one week to nine days and we wish to have dresses for at least two weeks. Does that mean you can’t get it back tonight or tomorrow? Absolutely not. We provide expedited tailoring by our seamstresses daily. If you need it tomorrow we will do our best, if you need it this weekend we will do our best our quality and integrity in our work will be at its best.
Please note if your event date is well in advance we ask that you please wait out of courtesy for others. If you do choose to drop it off prior, note that pick-up times will vary to support current clients for events prior. If you choose to book your appointment earlier, and well completed prior to the event this is your choice. Cut is cut, nothing can be changed.
Accommodating the services we provide a general time frame from our expert seamstress. During different seasons we perform different work. Generally, during the winter times, we perform lots of zippers a day from jackets, coats, and pants. Summertimes a lot of summer garments and accessories. Whereas, during most months year-round our seamstress performs a majority of dress tailoring. We will also do our best to get your next alterations performed when you need them. Especially for a special day such as your wedding, prom, or bridal party.
***Some items for larger zippers or materials out of our control such as needing to order materials for unique or custom garments may take longer than usual. Pick-up time will be clarified during your visit. We do our best to accommodate every client and their schedule.
