Top Zipper Repair and Replacement related questions

Velcro is a great, practical substitute for zips. If you’ve booked zipper replacement near you and would like a material that’s easier to use and is proven to be durable, Taskers can make quick work of this by sewing Velcro onto your bags or clothing.

Sadly, there are cases when broken zips can no longer be salvaged. For example, if the zip teeth are damaged in the middle, it may be best to replace the zip altogether instead of making repairs. However, tailors would still be able to restore zips if the issues are located at the top or bottom.

Yes, specific components like zip pulls or sliders can be swapped out without replacing the whole zip. This can be a quick and cost-effective option. 

It depends on your agreement with your Tasker! Materials like replacement parts can be provided by either your Tasker or yourself. If you don’t have time to purchase these items, feel free to request your hired tailor to provide them for you. They may also have spare parts they can use for this project.

Tailors can often complete repairs within hours, but this usually depends on their availability and your location. Taskers can always provide you with a more accurate timeline when you post a task or accept an offer.

You can easily find Taskers who specialise in clothing alterations. Feel free to book separate services for these, or ask your zipper repair specialist if they’d be able to accommodate extra services for altering garments.
