This Asian family-owned Alterations and Dry Cleaning business is one of Roanoke's best kept secret…read more I discovered it a while ago, and it was not by chance. Needing to have some alterations done to a new suit I had just bought to attend a special event, I visited several alterations and dry cleaning businesses that I knew about because of their central location and expensive advertising to get their name out there. All of them charged exuberant amount of money to have what I needed done, as well as having to outsource the job, and taking much too long to have it done. Then, all of a sudden, I remembered a little place I once saw as I was driving by the Colonial Office Center. It was located in one of three small businesses at the end of the parking lot to this Office Center. And I thought to myself: "Sometimes amazing things come in small packages." So I decided to travel on the road less traveled, in this case beyond the parking lot, and to this small building that housed the Sun's Alterations & Dry Cleaning business. This is where I met a very kind and hospitable lady who's main concern was solving my problem of getting my new suit tailored and ironed on time to attend my special event. Since all their alterations are done on the premises by a professional tailor with 26 years of experience, she told me it could be done and quoted me a very reasonable price. Who would ever have imagined that in this humble, little store, hidden behind a large Office building, I found the solution to my problem provided by a wonderful and warm Korean family-owned business. Since then I have always gone there for all my alterations and dry cleaning needs, and recommend the place to family and friends. Today, when I visited the place to take some photographs to accompany this review, I had the privilege to also meet the husband of the family and their older son, and to personally thank them for the great contribution that they are making to the community of the Star City of Roanoke, Virginia. I highly recommend this small business for all your alterations and dry cleaning needs, and urge you to support this wonderful family by giving them your business and friendship.

After ten days, I texted Stitch Dr. asking the new estimated pickup date. She did not reply. On December 3 she responded to my call, telling me that she had been in Richmond, and that her workspace had no heat and she could not work there. I gave her another 43 days to resolve her difficulties, and then called her phone number on January 15th, 16th, and 21st, each time leaving a voicemail asking that she facilitate my picking up my jacket, repaired or not. She did not reply to any of my calls. With severe weather conditions approaching, I decided to go to her shop unannounced to retrieve my winter jacket. I found the door locked, and no lights on. On my way out, her landlord was in the parking lot, and I asked if they knew of any reason Stitch Dr. might be unable to communicate. I told them the story of these delays and her failure to communicate, and after providing them with a detailed description of the jacket, the liner, and even an Italian Lira note sewn into the liner, they escorted me to her shop where I spotted the leather of my unrepaired property on the bottom of a tall pile of garments stacked in a chair, not even hung up as would be proper and expected. I retrieved my property just in time for the approaching Winter storm. Her landlord said there had never been a problem with the heat in the building. She still has the $60.00 I paid her. After 72 days of waiting for her to answer calls and texts, I mailed her a synopsis of this debacle and a stamped, self-addressed envelope so she could effortlessly send my $60.00 to me. 35 days later, she has not responded.
