Got totally different messages from calling and chatting! Over the phone I was told that shortening and tapering would cost me over 100 dollars and I definitely felt I was being used and manipulated in a creepy way, but in the chat I was told it's gonna be around 60! Didn't feel trust worthy and I used Henry's instead!

So disappointed! I took some clothes here to be altered several months ago. I dealt with a gentleman who was very nice, and did a wonderful job on the clothes. I went in again yesterday afternoon, was greeted by a woman who was SCOWLING at me as soon as I walked through the door. I showed her what I was looking to get done, and she rudely informed me she couldn't do it. I took my clothes and left. I went to another tailoring shop close by, and they were able to get done what I needed very easily. Unfortunately, with such a negative experience the second time around, I won't be back.

I had an emergency situation where I needed my suit altered within 24 hours for my wedding. Daves work was perfect in spite of the time crunch and he literally saved my wedding day. Thank you!!

I live in the North East of Calgary. It was Sunday and I wanted to fix my suit and to dry clean my winter coat because I had a business interview the next day. I did not have an appointment from Dave, I just walked in. Even though I did not expect him to do the tailoring, he welcomed me and made the job in short time with a cheerful smile and professional conversation. I thought he might charge me a lot but at the end he asked for a fair price.
