Excellent all round and a pleasure to deal with

5
I have used the Sewing Shop on 4 occasions now. Surely that must tell you about the courtesy, professionalism and quality work.I recently took in my leather coat to have the sleeves shortened by a good 4 inches. Having picked up the coat 5 days later i was honestly amazed at the finished product which looks as if it had never been altered---which it was. The entire staff were very helpful and honest with their opinions as to how they could carry out the alterations. On collecting the coat the seamstress explained it had been more difficult than anticipated but they were determined to complete the job as described. The finished article was completed far beyond what I expected and I, without hesitation will endorse the quality of work as well as I stated earlier the consummate professionalism from all I dealt with. Many thanks to all for a job above and beyond expectations.

No pricing strategy

They don't seem to have a pricing strategy. Every time I go for 2 inches of machine stitching she says it's £10. I picked up an item this week but wasn't thrilled that I paid £10 for literally 2 inches of machine sewing and it wasn't that great. When I asked about shortening sundress straps she said £10 so I said well it's less than 2 inches of machine stitching I think £10 is too much. She said we'll probably £5. Therefore there is no pricing plan it depends on trying for a higher rate and reducing it if questioned. Won't be using them again!

Hello. I can understand your confusion/frustration reading this review. We do have a price list so I would like to look into this further. I wonder if you could email me personally so I can look back at these jobs to clarify what happened. Many thanks Bryony

Outstanding

Outstanding. I had 2 jackets for alterations and they had been “tailored” very poorly in Newport. The Sewing Shop did a superb job in unravelling the previous efforts and doing the job properly.
They are professional,reasonable and pleasant. Highly recommended. Jeff
