I wouldn't recommend Barry's to anyone. When my daughter got a zippers replaced on riding boots…read morethat were two years old, they didn't last a month. When she called, she was told unpleasantly that she was too rough on it. Ummm... riding boots fit tight and you have to crank them over your calf. Zippers are supposed to last way longer than a month.

This tailor replaced a jacket zipper for me, and did a great job. Seams were straight, it closed…read morewell, I was pleased. So I brought my boat curtains to be sewn-- just four curtains to be cut from the cloth and then hemmed. It was critical to have them cut to the right measurements, which I provided. Unfortunately, they were all off be 1/4" to 3/4", and the hems were angled, not straight. This should have been an easy job for a tailor, but the result was sloppy, unprofessional. Too bad, I won't use her again. :(

We have tried several places in town to get a few things repaired.

She has done hems, pocket replacements and general alterations, all the work has been excellent.

This is the first time I have ever felt compelled to write a review, good or bad. This one is bad…read more Don't go here. I asked for two simple things, and they screwed them both up! I asked for a slit (button hole) in the back of a dog jacket to attach my dog's harness through... I repeatedly asked for them to make sure it was centred. I went to pick up the jacket, and the hole was not centred. The other article of clothing I brought in was a button up shirt... I wanted the longer back hem to match the shorter front hem. There is a slit in the back I wanted filled in with the material that was cut off the back. It wasn't done, and the material was thrown away. Very disappointed. I won't ask them to alter any more garments. I had to pay when I dropped the garments off, so I am left with no recourse.

Very rude customer service. Phoned to ask a question and owner/employee was very argumentative…read more Not recommended!!!
