Quality of alteration was on point. After losing 70lbs my suit was pretty big. Before buying a new one I stopped in to see if they could help. Keep in mind I am visiting the area from Florida. They did a great job super reasonable fast and alteration was great. 10/10 highly recommend. read more

They ruined my daughter senior prom dress. My daughter had them alter and dry clean her prom dress. After she picked it up a couple days later my daughter left it hanging in the bag she picked it up in until she was getting ready for the prom . She opened the bag and the dress was ruined with water marks . My daughter and wife brought it back and they said they couldn't do anything . My daughter was so upset . She was crying all night because she was not able to go to her senior prom because the dress looked horrible. Her boyfriend also had to miss his senior prom. read more

Horrible experience with this particular establishment I will never as in ever go there again. I brought in six items had no idea they would charge me $75 for six items but I paid it when I went to pick them up. They said oh they missed one and I owed another $10.! my fault that I did not have the receipt with me, but had I know it was gonna be $10 for one blouse that I couldn't even wear anymore I would never have done it. The cleaning was not that great. The service was horrible. The people were horrible, and I know that the guy counted when I brought them in and I paid prepaid for everything will never go to this place ever again. What a rip off. Just got a call from someone working there that they "looked at the video" when I brought my clothes in, and, as I said, we counted the clothes when I brought them in, but they said the guy who entered them, "forgot " to " highlight" one of my blouses - that was their mistake not mine - if I had the information that they were going to charge $10 for one blouse, I would never have gotten it done. I really think this one should be on them. read more

We picked up my shirts today and, although we got the right number of shirts, we noticed one of them was not the brand or size that I own. They told us "it's your problem now"! Somebody else must have my shirt and be equally frustrated with this place. read more

I still can't believe that they wanted $32 to shorten two light weight pajama bottoms. So I walked back in and got back my items and left. Terribly overpriced!!!!!!!!! read more

DO NOT USE THIS PLACE . had alterations done they charged me $48.00 She was supposed to take the wide leg and taper down to a boot cut. She didn't do that it was still very wide! She said if I wanted it taken in more it was another $48.00. if that wasn't bad enough the owner and she were going back and forth laughing and speaking in their language. They threatened to call the cops bc I was so upset and walking out and forgot I owed them $8.00 .The owner jumped in front of me and locked the door . I never questioned the price the first time but now she wants to charge me twice bc she got it wrong. I would give them no star if allowed .1 is too much in my opinion. read more

Family operated, and very friendly. I went there as soon as they opened and the owners were very kind and helpful when it came to my requests and questions. I got a Jiu Jitsu Gi hemmed, made of a very very durable and thick fabric. This place did an amazing job at the hem and stitching. It looks flawless. I do think the price i paid was fair. They had to charge me a bit more than the average due to them needing to taper the sleeves. You guys also have to keep in mind that tailors are hard to find nowadays sadly. This is one of the only places in the area and they do an amazing job at their profession. Help this local business out and go there for your next hemming needs, and also leave them a good review after!! Part of the reason why i left this was because of how misrepresenting the other reviews were of the place. Hopefully you'll give them a chance like i did! read more

After several requests to have my shirts laundered w heavy/heavier starch for a look that didn't appear like I slept in my shirts, I brought it up again this am. The manager was called to address my request, but essentially told me that my shirts would have to be dry cleaned for $8/shirt. This makes no sense, so I'm looking for another shop. Any suggestions? read more

Dropped a woman's double breasted short wool coat to be dry cleaned. It cost $25. When I went to pick it up. the coat looked like it had not even been pressed. They gave it a quick repress while I waited. The coat still didn't look good. I ended up taking it to another dry cleaner to get pressed & it was fine. I've gone to this cleaners twice since the new owners took over. I found them to be expensive & their work was shoddy. I will not go back & I do not recommend this business. I had been going to the Stafford cleaners for over 30 years when Jane & her husband ran the business. Too bad those days are gone. read more

This was my sole cleaners for many years. I get prices increase, though that is not my issue. They cleaned and pressed a months worth of shirts for me and did not starch them even though I requested it. They had medium written on the ticket and happily charged the full price, now for the next month or so I have to wear wrinkled shirts to work. Ridiculous that this wasn't addressed and fixed before I picked the shirts. I just a mumbled sorry and swipe of my credit card without the requested service performed. Unprofessional and lacking of attention to detail. read more

I got my wedding dress done here and Jane did such a beautiful job! I was so happy and blown away by the results. I recommend getting your tailoring done by her 100% read more

Stafford Dry Cleaners - Wedding dress - Sewing & Alterations Near Me - Manahawkin, New Jersey

Professional work that is truly amazing! I brought them a garment to hem which was a bit intricate. They assured me that they could make the hem match the rest of the garment. I was very hesitant at first because I had never used their services before, but they assured me they would do a good job. When I went back to pick up my garment, I checked the work and was blown away!!! It was done so professionally that I could hardly see any difference in the original work from the alteration! I will now have a professional tailoring service to frequent forever! So grateful and impressed. read more

Stafford Dry Cleaners is the best!!! My friend, a bride forgot to pick up her reception dress the day before her wedding and was crushed when we all realized they were closed the wedding day. I was able to connect with them on social media who went to the shop just to pick up her dress and brought it to the brides house!! Truly saved the day and they were so sweet and kind. We are forever grateful for this kind of service! read more

Absolutely terrible customer service. No respect for long standing customers. Terribly rude tailor.

Do yourself a favor take a picture of what you want Taylor before you ask to have it done, I had my wedding dress done there I asked to have the shoulders taken up when the Taylor fastened them with pins I could feel how much better it was the shoulders didn't fall down and it brought up the dress where it didn't drag on the ground. I picked up the dress (only day before wedding since everything has been time consumed by the virus). Well the day of my wedding I was tripping over my dress and pulling up my shoulder straps. I was so upset I went to the cleaners and complained the Taylor said she did it and if I didn't like it why didn't I bring it back (really....). To say the least I hope who ever reads this that it doesn't happen to you. read more

Dropped off 2 suits and 2 shirts. One suit and shirt was brand new out of packaging. Went to pick up today and one shirt has a blue pen mark across it. I told the lady it wasn't there when I brought it in and she proceeds to say she doesn't use pen other then at the register. She they says "is he that picky?" Are you kidding me? It's a brand new out of the package shirt that came straight to the dry cleaner. They check the garments when you bring them in. They even have a box of stain stickers at the register. There was no stain when brought in. She refused to admit they did it. So now I'm out the money for the shirt, have to find a new shirt before Saturday, paid for horrible service and need to get the new shirt cleaned again. Horrible customer service. And the hand written note about the stain was in blue pen. Coincidence I think not. Never again will we step foot in a business that can't own their mistake and treats a customer the way they did. read more

They're over pricing!! They check labels and make up prices to dry clean. My husband brought a shirt in, it was $2.00 next time the same shirt cost $6.00 He even had a receipt for the last dry cleaning To prove it. read more

ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE!!! My daughter brought a maxi dress there yesterday to be hemmed. The tailor pinned the dress hem (11/4 inches) and said it would be ready 8/31. He then charged her the outrageous amount of $160.00!!!!! I went back this morning when they opened to get the dress and a refund, and Mia (owner) told me he already did the dress and that I couldn't get a refund. i asked for the dress, since it was "already done", and she said "he took it home." Liars!!! She said I could get the dress Monday 8/22, and I said I'd be back at 9am to get it and that I'd NEVER GO BACk AGAIN!! This place took advantage of a young girl, charged WAY over what the job was worth, and is nothing short of robbery!!! I live here FT and am all about supporting local businesses, but when local businesses take advantage of customers and overcharge to the point of lunacy, that's where I draw the line. DO NOT GO HERE FOR ALTERATIONS of ANY KIND!!!! read more

2 times I have gone to them with coat zipper issues. First time was several years ago, my son's coat zipper broke during an Arctic cold front. I was a panicked mother and went in there and within several minutes they read my frantic mom face and had his zipper repaired and I was charged minimally. Then again today I went in with my own coat's zipper issue. The gentleman at the front looked at it brought it quickly over to the tailor and made a quick adjustment that fixed my zipper- they didn't even charge me!!! I'm grateful for their professional because the could have easily just changed the zipper and charged me for something that I didn't need. I've also used them many time for dry cleaning needs and again revived nothing but positive results! read more

I took my daughters dress to be hemmed. The Taylor said she did not need it hemmed but my daughter wanted it hemmed. The Taylor measures the length to hem with a puff of chalk. She charged $65 for the hem and said it would be done the following week. I picked up the dress and my daughter put it on for the big wedding day. My daughter kept saying nothing was done to the dress. I looked and sure enough the chalk marks were still there. The dress was not hemmed. I took the dress back to the Taylor at Stafford Dry Cleaners and she said sometimes the chalk gets left on there but she did hem the dress. She took her mask off and was speaking loudly saying she hemmed it and I am lying. I told her it's not about the money but about the principle. She said if I had a problem I should have come back and she would have fixed. This is a lesson I learned to always try on your taylored clothing at the store before leaving. I will never recommend using this Taylor and you should always double check before leaving. Rude and ZERO customer service. read more
