Reviews of T & T Tailoring & Alterations (Tailor)

Tony Castillo

Very professional and amazing work! Highly recommend.

Jeri Atkin

Wonderful shop to have alterations done on too big or too small clothes. They also shorten pants very nicely. Such a lovely seamstress to help you decide just how much or how little to do.

Chris Gonzales

One of the best Tailors i have been to. i am consistently purchasing Suits and Dress Shirts. Teresa alters just about every one of them. She knows exactly how they should fit and look. I trust her with all my custom fitting. Great work

Fran Bunker

Awesome job tailoring a suit and mending a hole in pants! Will definitely go back. Thank you Teresa.

TE Ins

Too busy for small hem jobs. Never ready when promised.

Charlotte Mcilrath

I am above and beyond happy with the results! I had a formal dress taken in by the waist and Teresa (owner) did an exceptional job! She even had my dress ready a day early. Prices are very reasonable. Kind and courteous cutomer service. Excellent work.

Jon doe

Fast and good prices got pants done in one day lady is super nice

Erin Nolan

I brought in a wedding dress to have the hem, halter and waist fixed. The waist presented a bit of a challenge based on the layers of top part, which were not conducive to bringing the waist and not the bust in without creating a change in the delicate pattern of the top. Upon trying the dress on post alterations, I found not only was the dress done exactly as I had hoped, it turned out to look better than I had expected. A very fair price for a very tough job done quickly with beyond excellent results!

Ashley Davis

Absolutely love this place their super kind and always do great work!

Alexandra Khudoleeva

Great place! Always good work for reasonable price and time.

I've used T&T Tailoring to have more than a dozen items altered. I am very pleased with the work and highly recommend using their services. Before finding T&T Tailoring I tried many other alteration shops. I drive a fair distance out of my way to use this shop due to the quality and friendliness. In 2 years, she has never been late with any of my items. The proprietress does have an accent, but I have never had a hard time understanding her or vice versa. Quality workmanship!

John Sandoval

This place is amazing, I took my new suite in just three days before my daughters wedding and she said that she would have it ready in two and not only was right but she made it look and fit perfectly. Price was perfect and I can not thank her enough but Thank you so much...

In the past few months I've had numerous items of clothing (suit jackets, suit skirts, and dress pants) altered at T & T Alterations, and I've been extremely pleased with all of their work. I'm quite picky about alterations, and I've now had T&T fix some things that had not been done to my satisfaction by a prior seamstress. T&T's pricing is in line with what I've paid in the past to other seamstresses for similar work. I will say I wouldn't bring T&T anything that needed to be done immediately, as they have always asked for at least 1-2 weeks when I drop things off with them. I do call ahead before I go back to the shop to pick up, just to ensure everything is ready, or will be by the time I get there. A quick turnaround time doesn't seem to be T&T's strength. However, I definitely recommend T&T Alterations overall - the quality of their work is definitely worth the wait.

I’m not one to write reviews but I feel the need to considering the service I received here. I dropped off a blazer to get tailored 11 days ago. The lady at the front was pleasant and asked if I could pick up the item today. I agreed as I understand she was busy. Today is my wedding anniversary and needed the blazer for an event my wife and I are attending. When I went to pick it up today she asked if I could go shopping for an hour and she would get it done. The problem is that it is already after 3 PM and she just stared at me when I explained I gave her over 10 days to get it done. I’m very disappointed that I agreed to picking it up at a later date and it still wasn’t enough. On top of it I thought it was strange to give someone that much time to do it when they could get the work done in less than an hour. Would it be the same quality? Probably not. I’ll be taking my business else where.

I have used them from fixing buttons and sewing leaking down jackets to fitting dress suits. I have always been pleased with the quality. Staff are incredibly polite and kind. I have not found another place in ABQ yet that matches the quality and service so am content to go out of my way to continue my patronage.

BRIAN ANDERSON

Fantastic service! I bought a suit for a funeral and it needed the pants shortened and hemmed. I took the whole suit to Theresa at T and T on Friday morning and told her I needed the alterations done for the funeral on Saturday and she not only got the pants done but also took in the jacket and the sides of the pants. All done in one day. Fit perfectly. Extremely happy with the exceptional service and the price was very reasonable. HIghly recommend this place.

Elvira Bookless

Good work for my alteration but I thought very high on price.

Peter Wing

Fast service and excellent quality work.

cipriano garcia

This lady is freaking awesome best customer service I've ever received did an excellent job on my vest. And hey she's not that bad to look at. Wow

eric thomas

They did a fantastic job tapering some jeans I had. Good turn around, great price and great work.

Clifford Severson

Work Was not completed when do and was not satisfactory pants were tailored to short

Chris Hidalgo

The only reason I give this business two stars is because the fit of the jacket I took in came out nice (however, that is the primary job of this type of business and can presumably be done at any other place). The jacket came back filthy and I was told by the business that I should take it to a dry cleaner. The price was double of what I was quoted which really upset me. I would not recommend this business to anyone. I came to this business because of the reviews that I read. Hopefully this one can help potential future customers.

Brian Card

I was not impressed with this place and will not be using them again. I had 4 pairs of pants hemmed there and all but 1 came out too short. I even told them to go longer when measuring and it was still too short. The big thing that bothered me was the jeans. They did not keep the factory cuff on these but rather cut it, folded it, and sewed it. I (wrongly) assumed they knew that you are supposed to keep that cuff with jeans as the manufacturer puts work into making it look a certain way, but alas they did not. Lastly I went in on the day told me to pick them up... more than a week out, and they hadn't even started them yet. I had to come back again to pick them up and they still were finishing them up when I came in. I do not understand all these 5-star ratings here.

Shaunte Mccuaig

Great job

Jasmine Shubert

I received great customer service. I would absolutely recommend going to T & T Tailoring & Alterations to anyone who needs alterations done. I was able to pick my items up in less than 24 hours and everything looks amazing. I will definitely be returning when I need some more items altered.

Martin Ruiz

I had been looking for a place here in town for almost three years, and I couldn't find anything until I found it. The owner is very good. She provides good services, and prices are very affordable

Jimmy K

Avoid this place. They do not deliver on time and are not honest. Tried charging me full price for incomplete/dishonest work.

Daniel Calvins

I love this place! Amazing service and affordable prices. Things were late now and than, but it is all worth it. Take my word, this is the place or my name isn't Daniel.

Thomas Cao

The front desk was very helpful. Close we’re beyond what I expected. I will DEFINITELY be coming back. Very good job Teresa. I recommend this shop to everyone.

I am a satisfied customer and this tailor has worked pretty hard to shorten the time needed to complete alterations. The bad reviews are pretty old at this point. Also, they are kind of unfair because they don't evaluate the quality of work - well, one actually to, but the writing is so bad, I can't understand it. When the negative comments were made, it was obvious that this tailor was a bit overwhelmed with work. I think that it was a challenge for her to get past the point of being sole proprietor working alone, to where additional staff could be hired. She now has other seamstresses and her turnaround time is much better. She did the last alterations for me on time. I just think it is unfair to complain about her command of English and the presence of her kids. I think that this tailor really works hard to do good quality work and succeeds. She does understand english, especially if you make an effort to be clear. So what if her kids make noise when they play - been around kids much? She seems like a good mom to me.

schlickster777

The best alteration ever. I really love the way I look and feel in my new jeans. Great customer service and friendly, and very fast turn around.

Karin T

They did a nice job replacing a zipper in a pair of pants at what I thought was a reasonable cost. Turnaround time was quoted as a week. I'd definitely go there again.

Daniel Atencio

Very fast. Very courteous. Will go again. Will definitely take anything that needs alterations. Quality work.

Stan Alexander

Friendly service and reasonable prices make this one of my go to tailoring services. Just know that it often takes about a week for your alterations to be completed.

Richard Shackley

Theresa does great work.

abdulel Shmery

She's really good with her work. I had pants from out a the USA and she made it my size

Tung Cao

Amazing work and very helpful and friendly staff.

Jeffery Bustamante

Took in some pants to be fixed and a costume. Got excellent turnaround, and great service. The costume especially is a bit of a unique request, being, you know, a costume. She was more than willing to help, very friendly, and it all came out excellent!

Peter Ondrasek

Great tailor with ideas just a little slow in delivery dates

D. Michael Korach

Reasonably priced any great work!

Amy Pecherski

These ladies are amazing! I have come here several times and they always do a great job. Thank you for fixing my husbands torn favorite orange down jacket.

Stanton Royce

My Mrs. needed to alter 4 new dresses. In August 2013 we took the dresses here to raise the waist slightly. She found a great price on some nice dresses but they were not petite sized. She found four that fit her good if you pinch together some material on top of the shoulder. This alteration is usually done by opening the existing seam there, removing some material on top of the shoulder and resewing the seam. The woman does have a bit of an accent but was easy to understand, pleasant and friendly and did a good job pinning the material sticking up above the shoulder to know where the new seam needed to be. She also had them done in one week as promised. When we returned a week later, it was about 17 minutes before she returned to her open and empty shop from outside the store. The negative rating is because for the alteration, she simply bunched up the material on the inside of the dress. It looks like it was inexpertly sewn by hand. My wife noticed this trying on the first dress. There was a bulge on top of her shoulder from where the fabric had been bunched together rather than opening the thread at the original seam, removing unnecessary fabric and sewing a new seam. The woman was insistent that was the proper and only way to do it. In addition to my wife having altered some dresses herself (but we both work a lot and prefer to hire help when we can for various chores), over her lifetime she's had dresses shortened this way in 3 countries and several cities. Before this encounter with T&T Tailoring, she never saw anyone do it this way, simply bunching together the fabric on the inside of the dress and sewing it all together into an unsightly bulge on top of the shoulder. She objected but was forced to pay the 4 @ $12.00 fee in order to get her dresses. She still needs to find a place that does good alterations in Albuquerque as we will never take anything else to T&T Tailoring. On a related matter, when we took in her dresses, I took in a pair of padded leather and Kevlar gloves I find particularly useful and comfortable. They are full fingered and I wanted to remove about the end 1/3 of the index finger on each glove. I asked if she could cut off the end of the index finger on each and sew a small hem on the edge of the leather. She told me it can not be done by machine or by hand, "You can't do it, there is no way." Later that evening I did it myself. I don't know what to make of the good reviews on here, unless those were very elementary sewing jobs. Based on our experience with this tailor, we will never go back for anything as we never had this poor craftsmanship ever in all our lives at any tailor at where we've had work done. This includes in various cities in USA, Mexico, Thailand, Philippines Saudi Arabia, UAE and Italy. Update: Been going to FINAL STITCH in a ABQ for years now. A little expensive but always good work.

Was looking all over for a place that could sew patches on my Karate uniform. T and T Tailoring did a quick and professional job! Thanks Theresa!

Chance Hopson

Friendly staff and really nice work!! Definitely my go to place for any work I need done!

Jacqueline Herrera

Was told to come back in 2 1/2 weeks. Dress had not been started on, told to come back in 2 days came back 3 days later and still was not ready. Seems like this is common. Overbooked maybe? Wasted more gas than anything to get here for the $6 off they gave me for the inconvenience.

Bobbie Sower

Slight wedding dress dilemma and she fixed it within a week before the wedding!! Amazing business!
