Another happy customer of Judy and her alterations. I walked in with my casual dress and was measured on the spot then picked up my perfectly fitting dress about a week later for about $25. Easy peasy. read more

Good service, poor execution. I chose this shop based on its five-star reviews and brought in an off-the-rack men's jacket for fairly standard alterations: sleeves let out, buttons attached to the cuffs, and sides taken in. To their credit, the staff was friendly and professional, communication was timely, and they were willing to address mistakes when I brought them up. Customer service on the front end was solid. Unfortunately, the quality of the tailoring itself was below average. One sleeve was shortened instead of lengthened--opposite of the requested measurement (both sleeves required the same initial adjustment)--which required a return trip and extended the total turnaround time for what should have been basic alterations. On the first return, the interior vent seams were also left unfinished and, although they were completed as part of the rework, the finishing was not as clean as the original seams of the jacket. Even after these corrections, the overall workmanship did not meet expectations. The interior sleeve linings were reattached too long and baggy, bunching inside the sleeve and visibly extending below the cuff unless manually adjusted. For straightforward alterations at a highly rated shop, this was disappointing. While I appreciate the polite service and willingness to make corrections, needing multiple trips for the same jacket--and still not feeling confident in the final result--makes it difficult to recommend this shop for men's tailoring. read more

Always a 5 star experience at Judy's! Her staff is lovely, and she is the best. She can fix anything, hem anything, make anything look better. Can't recommend her tailor shop enough! I've brought in pants, dresses, and everything in between. As a short girl, most of my formal buys have to get taken in/shortened, and this is always my first choice. Super accommodating for last-minute needs as well. read more

Judy is fantastic! She fine-tuned my wedding dress so it was perfect and fit like a glove! I was comfortable all day long in my dress, because she had taken such great care to fit it to my body. I highly recommend Judy's Tailor Shop to anyone looking for high-quality service and a super friendly seamstress! read more

Way too many screw ups but nice people. Hems on sleeve redo. Shirt lengths redo. Some redos were worse. They ship out work. So work can be good or a nightmare. read more

$175 to hem a dress that cost $110 I'm sure the quality is great, but this would have cost $40 at most in nyc. Definitely ask for pricing first. read more

Amazing experience & quick service. Great prices too with good quality. Would recommend

I went to Judy for a bridesmaid dress to get it hemmed in nothing crazy and add a busse. and I received it and the dress was still loose and not fitted and she charged me 283 dollars. Then she was going to charge me more to come back in to take it in which she said it doesn't need it. It was More than the cost of my dress. I went to another girl that fixed and reconstructed it and had to take it down a whole another size for 80 dollars. I got scammed. read more

Update since last review. I cannot express how good Judy is. She's absolutely mastered her craft and everything I've given her has come out exactly how I envisioned it (suits, pants, dress shirts, and more) she doesn't cut corners at all and will leave you feeling very good. read more

I needed an old suit of mine tailored for a wedding I was attending in a week. I went to a few places and it was either they couldn't tailor the suit at that location and to visit their other location or it was going to take a week for me to get it back. It was 30 minutes after closing and Mrs. Judy let me in because she cares for her costumers. Awesome and very approachable lady. She tailored, steam cleaned my suit in 3 Days! The suit looked absolutely awesome with an athletic look V cut to it. If she's not the best in Tampa I don't know who is. It's time to look awesome in this suit. Thanks Mrs Judy. Post after wedding: Suit absolutely looked fantastic!!!! Everything fit just the way I pictured it should fit! read more

JUDY you're amazing. She did alterations on my bridesmaid dress and the work her business does is perfect. Thanks Judy, I'll be back!

I've taken a few items to Judy's and everything has always been done meticulously! I just recently took a knit dress to be hemmed and asked if it could be hemmed by hand. It was done beautifully!! read more

What a fabulous find! We needed a quick turnaround for a homecoming outfit. Fortunately, we were warmly greeted by two different employees. They understood our requests, provided a fair quote (especially considering the speedy timeline), and delivered on their promise to complete the alteration on time. My student was thrilled with the fit and had a great time at the dance. I highly recommend Judy's Tailor Shop! read more

One of the hardest things to find is a great tailor. There's too many places that take shortcuts and can ruin your favorite piece of clothing but Judy's isn't one of those. I read countless reviews and ended up making the drive here. I had a pair of suit pants that needed to be completely redone for a wedding. I needed the waist taken in, the seat of the pants taken in, and the legs tapered from waist to ankle. The alteration was reasonably priced and done in a week. I can honestly say the result was better than expected. They fit so well and the job done at Judy's makes it the only shop I'll take alterations to in Tampa. I don't have to be worried about my clothes getting ruined when I drop them off here for alterations. read more

Oh, she's delightful, and I'm assuming that's her husband and son working with her. Very nice people, professional and accomodating. She and I had a chat when I came to pick up the gown that I had her hem, and she's got a great personality, and I loved that. I needed this done for a black tie wedding out of state, and even though I didnt have my shoes delivered yet, I knew they were an inch higher than the ones they supply for you if you don't bring your own that you'll be wearing with the item. She has a great eye, and the length was perfect. She took into consideration that I didnt want to trip over the length. Great experience, love them! By the way, I didn't know what to expect to pay for the hemming, and it was 95 dollars. The experience and peace of mind knowing that I found an expert in her craft was well worth it. This was a sequined full length designer gown. You have to know exactly how to handle these kinds of fabrics, it's not just an easy hem job that your mom taught you. :) read more

Judy is a master of her trade. See the attached photos and judge for yourself. I brought her a pair of shorts that I bought nearly two decades ago that were literally falling apart at the seems, as well as in the middle, on the side, everywhere. I came to Judy in desperation and she gave me in return a new pair, perhaps better than they were 20 years ago. They are a work of art. Thank you so much Judy! read more

I had a zipper replaced and my pants hemmed, they did an excellent job and I'm so excited to be able to wear these items again! I had left for vacation and forgot to pick up my clothes and they held them until I returned without charging extra to hold. They were kind and do great work! read more

Judy is a competent seamstress and does very good work. She also is a pleasant person do business with. I have all of my alterations done at Judy's Tailor Shop. Highly recommended service with fair prices. read more

I'm so incredibly happy with the quality of service I received at Judy's Tailor Shop! I brought in my wedding dress - which I was less-than-satisfied with the fit - but by the time she finished with it, I was so astonished and pleased with the way it looked. I needed it taken up so that it was the right length for heels but also to walk in barefoot and somehow she made that happen flawlessly. She also removed the horrible bust pads for me by request and made it look like they were never there. It was seriously incredible work. Her pricing is fair and below what many would charge in the area. I would absolutely recommend her to others looking for a wedding dress altered and I'll be bringing one of my bridesmaids here soon. Thank you Judy for your attention and care! I'll definitely be back! read more

Judy is my go to seamstress in the whole Tampa/St Pete area. I drive to Judy's from Brandon, FL for her expertise. I have had 25oz Ultra Heavyweight Raw Selvedge Denim altered here. Chain-stitched Hem, not a problem. Tapered knee, not a problem. Judy is not afraid to get Indigo on her hands or break a heavy duty needle. I wouldn't trust anyone else with my Iron Heart or Samurai Jeans. Don't hesitate to do business with Judy. You will be more then happy. And reasonable rates for quality craftsmanship! read more

As stressful as weddings can be, Judy made this process amazing! The first time I tried on the dress at the shop I felt like it was a different dress than I bought.... I was worried it would never fit right. I almost thought I needed to buy a new dress. I visited two other shops who told me they would not alter because of the intricate beading. Judy was so careful and knowledgeable. She stuck to every deadline and made me feel good all the way through. If only she planned weddings!!! read more

Easily one of the best of South Tampa. Shows with the constant hard work her and her team do! Thank you for your quick and efficient work ethic. read more

Judy's Tailor Shop - Perfect hem! Quick & efficient work. - Sewing & Alterations Near Me - Tampa, Florida

Been going to Judy for a couple of years now. I usually need hemming this time holes, hook and eye but very disappointed. Today I picked up the number of items I brought to her and was charged almost $250 for things that were very small repairs one dress needed a hem. I will not be going back which is unfortunate. Always ask pricing even if you have been doing there. Be careful out there! read more

Judy made my elopement dress simply perfect. Thank you for not only making it for like a glove, but for being so sweet along the way. (Sorry it took me so long to post this!) read more

Anyone looking for a quality seamstress, Judy is your best best. She is professional and offers exceptional quality of work. I brought my bridesmaids dress to her for strap alteration and she was also able to take in the bodice which was quite complex and have it back to me the same week in a few days before heading to a wedding overseas. My dress fit perfectly and I can't thank Judy enough! read more

Judy's is the best! I've taken a number of suits and pants to her and she's always exceeded my expectations. Even when I have something strange (making a normal suit into a summer suit) she rises to the occasion. Most recently she brought a 40 year old suit back to life (I have lost a lot of weight and she adjusted it to my new shape and fixed many of the details that had worn due to age). If you need alterations or tailoring, you need to go to Judy's. read more

Judy is THE absolute best. She does such impressive work, I can't recommend her highly enough. I brought in 10 pieces, and each one turned out perfectly. She was even able to fix a pair of pants that another tailor had badly messed up. read more

Judy and her staff do amazing work. Whenever I need a tailor, I always choose Judy and pass by several others to get to her. She is very friendly and takes great attention to detail with every customer at a fair price. I am so thankful to have found her! read more

Excellent job on my Maid of Honor dress. I originally had alterations done at Nordstrom. The tailor there would not take the dress in and would only hem because i might gain weight. The dress was a size 10 and I wear a 6. I hated how the dress fit post alterations. It was blah and loose fitting at the top. I took it in to Judy's Tailor Shop and ended up with the perfect fit! I will use them for my future alterations. read more

She is the BEST in town!!! She did amazing on my wedding dress and was very quick and fairly priced!! She is also very fun to work with. I love her work! read more

Had the best experience here. Brought a bridesmaid dress in to get altered and it was ready within a week. Looks amazing and she completed my requests and showed me where else she could take it in to make it look best. Price is awesome too. 10/10 experience read more

Judy is a miracle worker!! I brought her my very complicated wedding dress that needed taking in after another tailor had turned down doing the alterations... but Judy was up for the challenge!! She took apart the whole dress to alter it to fit my body like a glove. It's absolutely stunning and I'm so happy I brought it to her! Thank you Judy! read more

I recently got my wedding dress altered at Judy's Tailor Shop and was blown away by the quality of her work! I cannot recommend Judy enough. I was a little suspicious when Judy said I would only need 1 fitting to get all of the work done on my intricate dress, but this wizard of a woman was able to tailor every inch of the dress to my body in one go-around. She is incredibly professional, incredibly quick & incredibly skilled. Thank you so much for all the hard work Judy & team!! read more

Judy was recommended to me by a client of mine and I'm so glad he did. He and I have the similar issue where we need well fitted clothing, but cannot get it off of the rack due to muscle mass and the proportion that comes along with it. She was able to tailor all of my pants to where they look custom made for me, and are now incredibly comfortable to wear. I feel incredibly more confident in my clothing now. From the first pair I brought to her I knew I had to bring them all! read more

YAS QUEEN JUDY. I moved to Tampa from Alabama and was probably most worried about finding a new tailor. I had such a great one back home that could do absolutely anything in any time frame. I found Judy through Yelp and Google reviews. Super convenient location for me and she was GREAT! I took a not so flattering bridesmaid dress to her and she made me feel comfortable in it for only $20. I have another one to take to her and I'm honestly excited to go back. I want to be Judy when I grow up. read more

Judy was so sweet and I loved that she made small talk. She had my bridesmaid dress tailored within a week and it came out great! She was honest and committed to my fulfilling my needs. U would definitely recommend this tailor! I do wish I had gotten my dress a little shorter but all the alterations came out perfectly! read more

Amazing and friendly shop! I went to get a few pairs of pants hemmed, and Judy attended to me fairly quickly considering how many customers she had. She was very fast and efficient and got me out of the shop quickly, which I appreciated. When I went to pick up my pants (which were finished pretty quickly!), she and her husband were so kind and friendly. They really treat their customers like family!!! read more

My suit, jacket, and sport coat came out perfect. I highly recommend Judy's tailor shop and I will be back!

I bought a used dress online and it really did not fit me, my height or body type. I took it to Judy and she was a delight, even when busy. Once the dress was on, she talked to me, laughed with me, and asked me all the right questions about what I wanted. It came out prefect! I didn't think a dress like this would work for a flat chested, short person; but she did so great! Wonderful person, place, and price. 10/10 Judy! read more
