I am so glad I found Barb - she was so kind and reassured me on all the items I was concerned about for the dress and process. I made all the adjustments I asked for, and I came back for a couple fittings to ensure it was fitting just right. I feel the price for the intensive work that the dress required (being fully beaded) was very fair. She made me feel very confident during my last fitting and excited for my big day to show off my dress - I would highly recommend Alterations Unlimited!

I was contacted by the owners daughter,Michelle, who apologized profusely and was adamant about…read moremaking it right. I explained how disappointed I was because when I dropped off the garments, there was no mention about having to replace the fabric of the belt loops or completely altering the back of the skirt where the zipper was. She asked what she could do to make it right. I could tell she really cares about her business and customers, as well as the quality of work they produce. I explained that there wasn't much because of how altered they both were but instead, to make sure her parents fully understood what the customer was wanting and not to be afraid to say no if they couldn't actually do it. She agreed and again, couldn't have been more apologetic. This was a learning lesson for both parties and I know how to move forward. In the beginning, she asked if she could give me a refund. I declined at first because I wasn't seeking one but instead, was really hoping something could be done about my clothes. After a few phone calls, I decided I'd go ahead and take it. Prior to this, It had been a while since I've brought something to them but because this was handled so professionally, I'll continue using them but for dry cleaning only. Michelle, thank you for your kindness and empathy you displayed in trying to remedy this situation.

I was looking for a place to clean and package up my wife's wedding dress as an anniversary gift to…read moreher. I came across this place when I was googling. The dress was pretty clean but the bottom was pretty dirty from our outdoor wedding. Their service was excellent. They got it cleaned and packaged up in box within two weeks of dropping it off there. The communication they provided was excellent. They even sent a text message when the dress was ready for pickup. The quality of work was well worth the cost. The dress cleaning and preservation was $260 then they offered two size boxes. The medium box was $80 and the large box was $100. My wife's dress luckily fit into a medium box so I walked away with an out the door price of $360. I was not aware until I picked it up that the box I purchased came with a window so that you could still see the dress while keeping it packaged up and looking nice! I would highly recommend this place for all your dry cleaning needs and especially if you're looking to have your wedding dress preserved. My rating : BEST

I found that he used to have a storefront in Brentwood but since COVID has moved to working out of the basement of his house near Creve coeur. So if you need give him a call and he'll set up a time for you to go visit! Leonard was incredible to work with and such a fun person to talk to, he obviously takes a lot of pride in his work and it was very apparent that he appreciates the women's form by the output of his work. All said and done all the work I asked for was done within a week and for a very reasonable price. When I have other tailoring needs I will definitely call up Leonard again!

This business will be moving to 10028 Manchester Rd, #217, at the corner of Sappington, because…read morethe building they have been in will soon be torn down. Their new location will not be as convenient for me but I will keep going to them and here is why: Once, about 10 years ago, I went to this place with my son's favorite teddy bear, which he had soiled as part of a "toileting accident". I was hoping they could dry clean it so the fur would still feel soft after it was cleaned. The lady working then told me that sometimes the dry cleaning chemicals destroy the eyes of stuffed animals and recommended I try washing it in one of the oversized washing machines at the laundry mat instead. I did that, and the fur came out kind of stiff but it was clean and still had its eyes intact. She didn't have to be so helpful to me with my problem and I really appreciate how she was conscientious enough to be so honest and not take my money for something she thought not might have a good outcome. Since that incident I have t all my dry cleaning to this place and feel good about giving my money to real people who care about their business and care about doing the right thing instead of some big chain which.... Who knows where the money they get goes?

My dream dress was long sleeve lace, yet I purchased a strapless plunging neckline dress with floral appliqué. I tried it on every day for a week hating the dress more with each try on...then I called Custom Alterations for a hem and take in, she answered and swiftly got me on the schedule. When I arrived at my appt I basically let her know I despised the dress and wanted to give it a complete makeover. I thought she was going to tell me I was crazy especially coming to her LESS THAN 8 WEEKS BEFORE MY WEDDING...but she was confident and totally up for whatever I wanted to do! I told her my long list of things I wanted to change and shared many Pinterest photos with her, and she emailed me an invoice later listing all the changes I wanted with pricing. She was transparent about pricing, timeline, and the dress's limitations...really great communication!! She created sleeves including buttons, loops, and straps for attachment. Removed, recreated, re attached and hemmed my skirt. And she recreated the bodice and added lace. I came to her really upset with the dress I purchased and left a few short weeks later with the dress I envisioned myself in. It looked absolutely amazing and nothing like the original dress at all. I love when someone has a talent they are passionate about and do that thing really well. And that is Peggy and her team at Custom Alterations.
