Sewing & Alterations near Orinda

“Shams at Fashion Cleaners is the best! He does all of my dry cleaning and rug cleaning. Highly recommend! I believe he also has the best prices in Orinda.“

“Wonderful customer service and a dedication to making things as efficient as possible. It feels less like a business interaction and more so a human interaction. Totally recommend.“

“Mo was fantastic! I needed a minor alteration for my wedding dress and reception blouse on short notice—only about three weeks before my wedding—and I was a little nervous.

He was great to work with, finished everything on time, and did an excellent job. If you’re in the Bay Area and looking for a skilled, reasonably priced wedding tailor, I highly recommend Mo!“

“My clothes came out practically brand new! They restored my pure white grad dress that had been stained by chocolate back to its pristine shape“

“As I lost weight over the last year, I found Mahri to be an incredible resource. Her work is excellent, she is reliable, not to mention very friendly and warm hearted. I have bright trousers, shirts, and coats to her. Many of these items have been high quality linen shirts and trousers, fine wool Pendleton shirts, as well as denim, chinos, etc. she has saved me a lot of money by doing such reliably good work in altering my clothes that I have not had to replace an entire wardrobe. Highly recommended!“

“Simply the best tailoring experience I've ever had. Zoltan and Puje are wonderful people running an incredibly high quality business with humanity. They are an essential part of the fabric of the Berkeley community, and I wouldn't take my tailoring needs anywhere else.“

“Shirley's is hands down the best place to get alterations in the Bay Area!!! Miss Veda is a PRO who helped tailor my incredibly intricate wedding dress, as well as two other one-pieces that had a lot of complicated and unique textures and customizations that needed her expertise. She has impeccable attention to detail, and the team of folks I worked with at the shop were kind, thorough, and made sure I was in perfect shape for my wedding day. After my 5-star experience, this is the only place I will go in the Bay for my tailoring needs. They're the best!“

“The team at Young's is VERY good at what they do. Fast turnaround times and perfect pressings. They're a gem to have right here in Oakland!“

“So thankful for the team here who were able to alter my dress. It was too big on me and they were able to tailor it perfectly - it now fits like a glove!! They also accommodated me on relatively short notice - less than a week. and incredibly reasonable pricing for the high quality. will definitely be coming back here and recommending to everyone!“

“I’m so happy I found Best Alterations! I needed my business tablecloth hemmed on short notice for an upcoming vendor event, and they did an amazing job. They completed the work quickly, and the quality was excellent.

They were professional, reliable, and very easy to work with. I also appreciated that they accept both cash and credit cards, which made payment simple and convenient.

My tablecloths looked fantastic at my booth, giving my display a polished, professional look. I’ll definitely be coming back for future alterations and highly recommend Best Alterations to anyone looking for quality work and dependable service.“

“Very fast. They always have my clothes done before their projections and they are always pleasant to work with.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I have never come across a more caring company. Dutch Girl Cleaners heard that I was in a terrible car accident that had resulted in many broken bones and that I needed extra help. I posted online asking if anyone could help me wash and dry my family's clothes. I'm a disabled Army veteran with three boys at home, and on a limited income. The Bay Area is filled with generous people. I had offers from strangers to do the laundry.
Most were happy with the $30 that I could pay but I had an incredibly generous offer from the owners at Dutch Girl. Joe and his wife (owners) offered to do all of my family's laundry, free of charge, until I was feeling better and back on my feet. They also included free delivery and pickup. I was speechless. It was an amazing and thoughtful gift! With three boys, it was a lot of laundry! Joe took care of everything and put me on the next route to be picked up. Within a couple of days, all of my laundry was delivered, folded, and smelling so much better. I used their cleaning service for 8 weeks. There was never a delay or problem with any of the clothes. They have a very easy-to-use app, and I was texted before and after every pickup. DGC lifted a heavy burden from me in a very desperate time of need. We all had clean clothes again, and it was one big task I didn't have to worry about during my recovery. DGC is a great company and epitomizes the meaning of a community leader.“

“I found Royal Rockridge Cleaners over A year ago, and have been using them ever since. Their work is stellar, quick, reasonably priced, and they deliver at no charge! Who does that these days? You are treated like royalty at Royal Rockridge Cleaners☺️“

“Excellent service & perfect work with alterations. The owner was very accomodating with my need for quick completion.“

“Would give her 10 stars! The owner is very friendly and understanding. She is obviously experienced in alterations etc. I have a small waist and larger hips, so pants never fit well without a tight belt and still wind up bulky and unflattering. I decided to get alterations for the waist of 4 pairs of pants/ jeans and they were perfectly fitted!! I literally couldn't find where they were altered. I'm so happy that I finally feel comfortable in my clothes. AMAZING WORK!! Thank you so much for the excellent service.“

“I was referred to Style Cleaners because they were one of the only Dry cleaners in the area that offered heavy starch for my jeans...I have remained a loyal customer because of the excellent and consistent customer service!“

“My go-to dry cleaning place in the East Bay and owned/run by a lovely family. I would even drive 40min here for a couple of years when I didn’t live in Berkeley, because they are so trustworthy, high quality, and reasonable with their pricing. I’ve had a Zimmermann dress “go missing” from a premium dry cleaner in Manhattan, but I’ve been going to them for years and am always happy with their dry cleaning on my formal dresses, suits, sweaters, etc. Sylvia is also an excellent tailor!!!“

“Tailored a dress for me in a pinch and got great results in only 2 days! Highly recommend.“

“Ideal Cleaners offers the best dry cleaning services in Oakland. They are very professional by communicating frequently to customers about the status of their order. In terms of pricing, they are very fair and transparent. Lastly, they can handle any fabric or style of clothing you give them. Make Ideal Cleaners your 1st and only dry cleaning option if you are living in the Oakland area.“

“Renaldo was amazing its has been awhile I was living in the Bay Area. I will say after his services I have judged all my tailors since based on his amazing service.“

“Very professional alterations, reasonable prices and availability of rush service. We will be coming back here again for our future alteration needs.“

“I’ve used them for years and year. They’re always reliable and the nicest people.“

“Almost completely removed a couple tough stains on my cashmere sweater that many previous dry cleaners were unable to! Great job and friendly staff too!“

“I had a suit I needed cleaned for a last-minute wedding invitation. They were able to turn around the suit within 24 hours with exceptional service. I highly recommend this business to anyone in the El Sobrante Richmond and El Cerrito areas to get dry cleaning done by this company. Five stars all the way through.“

“came in to get a few pairs of pants hemmed and a jacket zipper fixed. they did a great job on the zipper, it works perfectly now and you cant even tell it was replaced. the pants were good too, but one pair came back with the hem a little uneven, like a quarter inch off on one leg. i didnt notice at first but now it bugs me every time i look at it. prices are reasonable for the area, i think it was like 15 bucks per hem. overall happy with the work and i’d go back, just wish they’d been a bit more careful with the stitching.“

“This place is awesome! Great customer service and an amazing job on a tight deadline! This is my new ho to spot!“
