How much does it cost to alter clothes?

What does a clothing alteration include?
Your seamstress or tailor is skilled in working with textiles, but especially clothing, to create, repair, and alter clothing. Whether you're a bride looking to have adjustments on your wedding dress or a mum who needs to have her kids' school uniforms repaired, Taskers are up for the work! Here are some of the most popular alteration services and what you can expect when you book them:
Sewing
Need some custom sewing work to create a design from scratch or custom-fit to your size? Hire a seamstress or dressmaker to create or customise your dress or garment based on the designs of your favourite fashion brands - whether it's a wedding dress, a school uniform, or corporate wear. They’ll start by measuring your shape and size with a soft tape measure to ensure the perfect fit. They’ll consult you on designs and fabrics, before choosing or customising a pattern and cutting out the pieces. They’ll sew your garment or dress, taking care to finish off any edges with an overlocking stitch. Most dressmakers will request you to come in for a final fitting where you can try on the (mostly finished) garment and they can make final adjustments.
Formal wear alterations
When you want to look your best, it’s so important that your clothing is tailored to perfectly fit. Whether you need bridal alterations, wedding dress alterations, school graduation alterations, corporate wear alterations, or suit alterations, a professional seamstress can help. They’ll take your exact measurements and then ask you to try on the outfit or dress, ideally with the shoes you plan to wear. Then they’ll note or mark up any parts that need taking in or loosening, and where the hem needs to sit based on your shoe height. They’ll use a mixture of machine and hand-sewing techniques to alter your clothing and finalise everything with a final fitting before your event.
Clothing adjustments
Most clothing you buy off the rack won’t be the perfect fit, or you might need your favourite clothes adjusted as your body changes shape over time. Book an alterations service near you to help with dress shortening, garment shortening, trouser alterations, and even school uniform alterations for those kids who won’t stop growing. Clothing adjustments usually involve taking seams in or out and adjusting the hem. Most hems have a few centimetres of extra fabric, so you can add extra length, or take it up for the perfect fit.
Clothing repairs
When your favourite dress or trousers have a rip, you don’t have to throw them away. Get a professional to take a look and see if they can save your garment with techniques like zipper repair, seam repair, new lining, hole patching, button sewing, and more. Extend the life of your clothing with alterations and tailoring services - it’s better for the environment and much more budget-friendly, too.

On site curtain alterations
£250
Strand On The Green, Greater London
30th Aug 2024
Curtain alterations needed for full day on site job: Room 1: reusing curtains One 7.3m wide curtain to be cut and re-hemmed into three new curtain panels; 2x 175cm panels and 1x 200cm. The length is already correct. One curtain panel to be cut and re-hemmed down one side to make matching 175cm panel for the above. Room 2: slightly too short curtains Four curtains to have bottom hem unpicked at the bottom, rehemmed to add length - there is enough fabric for this but it will be short fold / hem so weight might need be added but maybe not necessary. Room 3: Small alteration One curtain to have 10cm cut off down one length and re-hemmed - two cigarette holes from previous tenants :/ All curtains 260-270cm in length. One curtain very light in weight and dark brown All others are grey/beige fabric and slightly heavier. We have a large kitchen island that could be used as a sewing worktop as well as people on site to help with the larger fabric items. We would need someone to bring their machine and an assortment of thread etc. We can provide parking, food and drinks :)
