Reviews of Bushey Tailoring & Alteration

S. L.

I took in a bridesmaid dress which needed to be altered urgently for a wedding this weekend (cut and hem). We took the dress to Sam, who was really friendly and professional and he managed to finish it for me within five days, including the weekend and a bank holiday. The dress was a tricky length and material and Sam did a wonderful job. The tailoring is beautifully done and I am so thankful for his high-quality and efficient work. I would recommend Sam’s services in a heartbeat and will be taking more clothes to him!! Thank you again Sam 😊

I had my trousers shortened at this tailoring service. It was lined so required a skilled tailor. The work done is to a very high standard and very reasonably priced. He was very prompt and delivered on time as promised. Sam knows his stuff and this is evident in the quality of his work. I highly recommend this service and will certainly use it again.

I have been coming here for just over 1 year now and Sam has always been brilliant. Can never do enough and it always really good value - whether it is suits, shirts or trousers. I would definitely recommend his services.

M. A.

Highly recommend had 3 bridesmaids dresses altered perfectly, and have now at short notice been able to alter my wedding dress after being repeatedly let down by David’s bridal, I can honestly say they have gone above and beyond with there customer service

D. P.

I took my wedding dress to Ali to get it altered and he did such a great job! He was friendly and reliable. He shortened the dress, tightened the sleeves, replaced the zip at the back of the dress and added material to the chest and its now perfect! Literally like a made to measure dress. He also kept a car parking space in front of the shop for us which was so convenient. Ive now taken 5 more dresses for Ali to alter for me as a result! 5 star service and so professional. Thank you Ali for everything!

A. P.

Altered our wedding clothes in a short time. Great work and quality. Thanks!!!

H. P.

Sam did an absolutely amazing job taking some of the length off my thick fur coat. Its such a hard job to do but the stitching and everything looks immaculate!! Also i payed a very reasonable price so i am very pleased would use again thank you.

E. G.

My wife took her coat to be altered just a few days before Christmas. The coat was fully lined and Sam did such an amazing job. Would definitely recommend Sam's work. DEFINITELY USE Bushey Tailoring - you will not be disappointed. Thank you Sam

B. C.

I cannot express my gratitude to Sam. With less than 3 days to go until my wedding he managed to fix the poor alterations that were done to my wedding dress, by another bridal store. I went in on Wednesday just before closing and my wedding was on Saturday. On Thursday afternoon Sam had asked me to come back in to try on the dress after making the alterations and he did it exactly to specification, he even steamed my dress for me before I left. I was so worried that the dress wasn’t going to be ready on time but he was very reassuring. I cannot rate Bushey tailoring enough! Great customer service. Thank you so much !

E. L.

A wonderful experience having my bridesmaid's dress altered here. They did a lovely job taking the length up and making the top fit perfectly, it's like the dress was made for me. All done in good time and at a really reasonable price. 5 star service! :)

I recently pulled an old and beloved winter coat out of the cupboard to find a massive rip along multiple seams below the left arm. It amounted to a gaping hole. This is a thick leather coat with a thick fleece lining. I've had it for 25 years and it wasn't new when I got it. The rip looked horrible, something I had no chance of repairing myself so I Googled local leather repairs and Bushey Tailoring came up. It turned out to be really local so I took it to Sam and he said he could do the job using a thick leather patch. He said it would take two weeks but four days later I got a text saying it was ready. When I inspected the work, I actually couldn't find the original tears and Sam showed me the neat, discreet patch he'd inserted to save the section becoming too tight to wear. The work was incredible. Sam demonstrated how strong the seams were so that the same thing couldn't happen again. I'm so impressed with the speed and quality of the work and would recommend Sam to anyone wanting a repair. I feel the shopfront could do with a little TLC to give it a bit more 'kerb appeal' but honestly, that part of Bushey Arches wouldn't get a lot of passing foot trade anyway. Sam is open until 6.30pm every evening, even Saturdays, so it's really easy to fit in a visit around work schedules. I'll certainly be using this business again.

M. S.

I had a dinner jacket altered (arm length and taken in) and it now fits perfectly. I also had a pair of chino's taken up. Work quality is outstanding, pricing is fair and it was all done in < 24 hrs. Will definatly use these again.

J. C.

Very professional service. Alterations were to my exact requirements and dealt with in a timely manner and at a good price too! Would highly recommend

J. S.

Suit and trouser altercations. Friendly, quick, very reasonably priced and outstanding work. Very pleased!

G. C.

Ali altered my daughter’s prom dress. He fitted us in straight away and had the work done super quickly. My daughter was over the moon with the fit of the dress after the alterations. He made changes we hadn’t even thought about having done and it made all the difference to the fit of the dress. My daughter is very happy and I would definitely use Ali for alterations in the future.

C. R.

Ali was great. I went to him on a Friday with a 3 piece suit that needed tailoring. Jacket sleeves lengthened, jacket tapered in the body, jacket shortened, waistcoat taken in at the body, trousers taken in at the waist, leg and also lengthened at the back to sit nicely on my shoes. Everything looks great, stitching is tidy and it looks like a custom made suit. I've had many compliments on this since wearing it too! This was a very large job and he completed it all for me within 2 days and I collected on Sunday. Ali is extremely friendly with great customer service and knows exactly what he is talking about. Pays attention to the finer details which I like. For my job, it wasn't necessarily cheap however if you are looking for a job to be done properly then he is your man. Well worth the price I paid to get exactly what I wanted. The suit fits perfectly now and I will be using him for all of my tailoring in the future. Thanks again Ali.

P. H.

Sam altered my suit trousers as they were too long (I bought them cheap at TK Max). He did an outstanding job and only £12.50. Highly recommend.

M. Z. P.

I would highly recommend Ali for anyone who needs a dress altered. I brought in a prom dress which was two sizes to big for me and he carefully listen to what how I wanted the dress to fit and had it done within days and perfectly. Will be going back, very good experience.

J. K.

Brought in my (much loved) green jacket that had a number of holes where the stitching had fallen apart from too much use. Next day the whole jacket was repaired and ready to go. Very impressed.

D. M.

Hi, I had some Anarkali dresses altered by Salman, he did a fantastic job, very professional, quick and they fitted great. I look forward to wearinf them for upcoming weddings. I would highly recommend Bushey Tailoring. Thanks Deepti

D. S.

My husband and I have used Ali shortly after he opened last year and we have been absolutely delighted with his service. He will happily re-alter clothes until it’s perfect! My husband gave a number of wedding outfits to Ali with short notice and he was able to alter the clothes within that time frame. There is also the added bonus of good parking within the vicinity; he is open late and very flexible with timing. We would recommend him to anyone as he is a true perfectionist!

S. Z.

Sam was extremely professional and I had a great experience. He tailored a jacket for me and also adjusted a red dress for free, and did a super job😁 Price was good and done in a timely manner, would recommend 100%

B. S.

I had 2 trouser alterations done and ready for pick up the following week. Good helpful service and proper job. Very pleased and would recommend. Barry Steel. Oxhey Village.

O. P.

I cannot thank you enough. A last minute alteration needed for a pair of suit trousers. Called at 3pm dropped off immediately and completed by 4.30pm to the highest quality. The trousers look perfect and you cannot tell they have been altered in the slightest. Cannot recommend this company enough. A fantastic local business. Thank you!

R. K.

Ali is an amazing tailor, explained what needed to be done and he done it flawlessly. I had jeans worth over £400 pounds so was scared to give it to him as needed it shortened in length and he done such a fantastic job that I went back and took all my other clothes like suit trousers and blazers and he altered them perfectly too. Best tailor I could ever find and would recommend to anyone.

L. R.

After a different tailor made a hash of sewing my buttons on my coat, I took them here and the owner did a brilliant job on them. I also had some trousers altered and they were done to an incredibly high standard as well. I would recommend this place very highly indeed. The customer service was excellent and the quality of the work was top notch. Thank you very much!

A. a.

I've always dreamed about an open back wedding dress but couldn't find anything modest that wouldn't cost me a fortune. I ordered a classic dress online and brought it to Ali to see if it's possible to create something similar to the one I dreamed about. It was the very first time I used Ali's service and I was amazed by his proffesionalism. He explained to me in details what needs to be done and what he needs to change so it would fit perfectly. It was quite a big job to be honest but I trusted him with my dress and was so happy with the final result. The dress was zipped all the way up at the back, he removed the zip so he could cut out the back and shorten the dress without touching the bottom (it was very important to me as it has detailed hem), sew in new, shorter zipper, lower the neckline and took in sleeves. Dress was ready in no time and he basically changed the whole design so now I've got my dream dress at a fraction of price! Ali is an excellent tailor, always happy to help and I highly recommend his service to anyone. He's passionate about his job, definitely got the skills and knows what a top quality is!

K. P.

I had a suit (blazer and trousers) altered. Sam was very professional and did a great job. Would definitely recommend to anyone who needs alterations.

L. P.

Had a bridesmaid dress that was far too long for my short stature! Sam took it in to exactly the height I needed, was quick and professional, and friendly service too. Thank you so much!

A. A.

Ali was amazing! I needed to get my wedding dress altered and was recommended to go to him. Obviously I read Google reviews first and they where all right he is great! He was polite... considerate and took the time to understand the changes needed. My wedding dress is very delicate tulle with alot of beading. He was able to add some additional material to the decollage that not only matched my dress but was beautifully tailored. His workmanship was impeccable. I would definitely recommend anyone to go to him. Easy to get to just a quick 3 minute walk from Bushey rail station. You can also park under the arches in bays 1-5. Will definitely be going back..thank you for doing such amazing work to my dress!

M. R.

I use to see Ali in his previous workplace and was always so pleased with his workmanship, great customer service and always a smile!. I was so happy when I found him again in Bushey where he has set up his own business. Ali is the best there is and I won't be going anywhere else for my alterations. I highly recommend Ali, he is an excellent Tailor, during the past I have presented him with some tricky repairs and alterations , but he always goes that extra mile to find the best solution. Ali has the ability to make a garment look and fit as though it had been completely made to measure. I wish Ali all the best with his new venture and am sure with his skill and attitude , it will prosper.

N. D.

Sam is great and has done lots of alterations for me. Always perfect and professional. Very happy with this top class tailors. I would highly recommend.

Brought my suit to Sam to do some alterations. He was extremely helpful and friendly, and the quality of the work was brilliant. I'll definitely be using his services again and would recommend him to anyone around the area.

J. C.

Recently moved here from London, where it's so hard to find a good, reasonably priced and quick tailor. Pleased to say Ali is all of these! Great customer service. I've taken a couple of things in recently and both times Ali gave me a same day service at a very reasonable price. Will definitely be back!

G. H.

Absolute perfection. Exactly how you want your items to be tailored. Excellent turnaround! I needed these trousers done there & then. He can do what you need incredibly quickly. Great communication & customer service! Great great prices! Always has a smile on his face! Excellent parking facilities around the area and free to park right outside! Ali is certainly your man! I wouldnt go anywhere else! Right next to Bushey station so perfect to pick up after work too! Thank you so much!

R. B.

Ali is not only an incredible tailor, he is a fun bubbly personality which makes the experience all the more enjoyable. I needed bespoke stitching and he was able to help me out... I described how I only needed a quick job, didn't have to be precise at all but when I came to collect it, he had done an incredible job - seamless! Cannot recommend enough! I'll definitely be coming back!

S. P.

Ali is a brilliant tailor who's workmanship is first class! I needed my trousers altered within under 24 hours, which was no problem for him. My trousers were previously altered by someone else who had done a terrible job which Ali sorted out without any issues. I will not go to anyone else but him now. Highly recommended!

N. N.

Sam is an absolute professional. He altered an XL dress after I lost 10kg weight to a L and the results were exquisite! Highly recommend him

Y. P.

I would highly recommend Ali for anyone who needs a dress altered. Our bridesmaid dress supplier unfortunately made a mistake with our order, so two of the dresses turned up far too big for two of the bridesmaids (the two either side of the bride in the photo). Obviously, we were worried this was going to ruin the bride's big day - but with Ali's help, our dresses fitted perfected and you couldn't even tell they had been altered! He went out of his way to find what adjustments needed to be done to make the dresses fit perfectly (on one, he removed the zip and took the dress in at the back, on the other, he decided taking it in at the sides was best) and his passion (and skill) for his work is obvious. I'm definitely going to be taking any dresses that need alterations to Ali in the future and highly recommend his services.

K. K.

Excellent tailors! My wife brought in a dress that needed taking in and I brought in a suit jacket which needed some very tricky alterations including shortening the sleeve from the shoulder and taking in the sides slightly. He did an incredible job on everything and we couldn’t be happier. Very fast turnaround too! Will be back again for sure. Thanks

J. C.

I’ve been getting my clothes tailored by Alli at Bushey Tailoring now for nearly two years. Since getting my clothes altered by him I refuse to go anywhere else. He is a top quality tailor and trust him with all of my high end brands. If you have any items of clothes you’re not happy with, take them to him as he can work wonders. He prices are super and he works quick not like other tailors where you are often waiting weeks to get your items back. Trust is a huge thing for me when it comes to getting my clothes altered as I am deeply into my fashion and I trust him with all my top end pieces.

D. P.

Ali altered my dress in a very short time. He took his time to understand what I needed and solved everything professionally. The dress fits be perfectly.

R. S.

This is a bit overdue, I had my wedding in October! I had a suit made by moss broad for my wedding which was absolutely terrible. I had 2 weeks until the wedding and was panicking, until I met Ali at bushey tailoring. Who put me at ease and said don’t worry you will have the perfect fit for the day. He waited past shop closing for me to get there, straight away he worked his magic with his pins taking the suit on here and there, the trousers, waistcoat and even the shirt. 10 days went past and Ali delivered what I can only say was a miracle compared to what I was given by moss bross. Thank you my friend I felt truly comfortable on our special day. Highly recommended and will certainly use again and again.

J. J.

My tailor for my wedding dress had let me down 7 weeks before the wedding , so I contacted these guys and Sam was amazing , altered my dress in time for a fitting to make sure fitted ok . the workmanship was excellent and cannot fault . Also had a last minute bridesmaid dress to alter and it was done perfect and in plenty of time . 5 stars : )

T. M.

Amazing service and value for money. He fitted a brand new zip on my child's jacket. He was friendly and approachable, couldn't ask for more!

P. S.

Fast, efficient to alter a last minute prom dress! 10/10

A. L.

Amazing service!!! I needed a suit jacket adjusted and have often passed by so thought I would pop in and see what could be done. I felt confident in what was being offered and was also advised to shorten the sleeves slightly. I am so pleased I took the suit in, the suit jacket fits perfectly now and looks amazing. Highly recommended!!

Iv just had my wedding dress alterations done by Ali, i was recomended him after another tailor let me down a few weeks before the wedding. Ali took the dress on and has done a fantastic job. My wedding dress looks and fits great. Ali was very efficient and provided me with a very professional and high service, he is friendly and accomodating and im very pleased with the work he has done. I would highly recomend his services and will use again in the future.

t. o. g.

V. O.

Amazing service ! Sam was very lovely he fixed my wedding dress for me and did it so well! So so pleased I would highly recommend

D. R.

Great service and even better results.... This recently opened tailor is prepared to tackle any job, large or small. After losing a few kilos recently i found that none of my jeans fit me anymore. After showing him exactly what needed doing my jeans now fit like a glove and i am already considering what else to take here for adjustment. Thanks for the great job!

N. S.

I took my brides maid dress for length alteration as it was too long, a beautiful floaty double layered dress The service was very friendly and also quick! Very competitive pricing too This tailor is passionate about their work and enjoys what they do therefore the results are wonderful

A. N.

Great service, very friendly and good prices. Ali altered all my trousers for me, made them fit well. Trousers were handed in on a sat morning and got them back the same day! Thanks again Ali!

S. B.

I am so happy with my tailoring experience. Took in three Italian designer suits that required significant alterations and I'm thrilled with the results! Highly recommended and an absolute pleasure to deal with.

P. D.

Sam did a fantastic job shortening jacket sleeves and trousers on a new suit for me. I was very impressed with the quality of his work and would not hesitate to use him again or to recommend him to others.

I can't praise this service enough. I have had items of clothing hanging around for months which I love but they simply didn't work anymore; work dresses with hems which refused to stay in place; leather and pleather skirts with sexy splits which had gone wild due to too many nights out; amazing dresses I have found in charity shops which in all honesty... just didn't fit! Rather than throw/give these away I took all these items in, not expecting too much, other than a telling off for not being able to hand see a hem efficiently! There is a roomy changing cubicle so I was able to try the clothes on to be pinned which is great. It didn't take long and he knew exactly what he was doing in terms of how tight the strapless dress should be (it was a C cup and I'm an A (!) so it needed some serious alteration. A week later I was delighted to see how they had all been transformed and all for the price of say, a new dress. The resized dresses fit perfectly and they actually look stunning on now. The splits have not only been stitched back to their original position he's reinforced the split with a T-bar of material so it's not going anywhere! I am a very happy customer : - )

K. C.

Great skills and thank you for the fabulous alteration.

D. L.

The manager of the business knows exactly what, where and how to make the alteration, I brought a coat in that clearly was 2 sizes too big, but on return, it was like a Savile Roe made to measure. I'm absolutely delighted! Regards Dominick

r. g.

Sam is absolutely brilliant. Went in on a Tuesday to have my suit taken in and adjusted and had it back by Thursday. Thorough, friendly, COVID friendly and a lovely person. I highly recommend Sam.

G. S.

Had two suits altered. One let out, the other sleeves shortened. Alli did a great job. When I wanted sleeves further shortening and a bit more work on the other - it was “no trouble at all sir”. Would recommend.

M. P.

Z. C.

J. B.

Great place so friendly i would definitely recommend anyone here the man has done a great job of my wedding dress and kindly let me keep it with him till my due date, truly amazing great job.

S. A.

P. H.

Very good service they installed an elastic on my waterproof top which was an excellent standard l would recommend their services

T. B.

I needed a suit adjusting quickly, and they delivered as promised. I'm glad I took their advice on additional changes, rather than just adjusting sleeve and trouser length. I've never had a suit fit so well

R. M.

Salmon was very much aware of the need and acted promptly to do the job I would highly recommend the place for tailoring needs any day.

B. M.

I've taken 2 suits to Ali and am happy with the quality of workmanship done and for the reasonable price. I hope to be returning shortly with more!
