Reviews of Alterations Paul Rec (Tailor)

Myrtille Jacadi

Great service! He was fast and efficient; I gave him three items to alter (a dress, a jumpsuit, and a pair of pants). He pretty much had to re-do every single one of them because he had to change a lot, but he was fast and got the job done in a day and suggested ways to redo my clothes I hadn't imagined, but they worked perfectly, I look bomb in my outfits! Also, he's been doing this since the age of 9, so best believe he knows what he's doing. Thank you Paul! ~Myrtille.

I had lost a lot of weight in the two years after I first got my Brooks Brothers suit. Luckily, Paul has years of experience with BB and knows how to make a stellar cut out of one of their suits. Now, the suit looks like custom-made and I couldn't be happier with the incredible work Paul did!

I have been entrusting Paul with my garments for 10 years now and he is a consummate professional and is an absolute master of his craft. He recently tailored a dated and older three piece suit that I had hanging in my closet and he transformed it into a stylish, head-turner! He is also patient, fair and an overall great person.

Paul is one of the most exceptional tailors that I’ve ever had the pleasure to work with. He enjoys the art of clothing as much as I do and that’s saying something. He’s also a pleasure to spend time with. If you’ve got something, get down there. A good tailor, like a good barber or dentist, is something to be cherished.

I was really sad when my puppy scratched and ripped up my new winter jacket, so I brought it to Paul to see what could be done. Not only was he super friendly and helpful, but he managed to stitch up all 10 tears in the jacket and mask them beautifully. Service was super fast as well! Highly recommend him :)

I was looking for a new tailor and had five new pants to get adjusted. Saw all the great reviews and decided to called Paul to explain my situation and he told me to come by. I went and recommended for me to wash my pants to get see how much they'd shrink. Came back the next day with my pants washed and was hoping I'd be able to get one or two pairs back for a date I had later in the evening. Low and behold, Paul blew my expectations away with him telling me he had finished all the pants on top of being the best alterations I ever seen. Definitely worth the price and will be coming back for all my future adjustments. You do get what you pay for!

I've known Paulie for a few years now and he's been great to me! He is patient, makes great suggestions and he's a man of his word! I never feel hurried at his studio, and he'll take the time to instill some tailoring history, teaching me about different materials, garments, etc... Paulie is a true craftsman and I'm glad to have met him.

Paul is the best alterations pro in the Montreal area. Period. I've been going to Paul for more than 15 years. He's skilled, professional and honest. I've recommended him to countless friends and business colleagues. I'm recommending him to you. Male or female, from casual to the most formal of clothing. I've had suits rebuilt, coats rebuilt, pants taken in and out, shirts tailored, even ties shortened. If you have quality clothing that requires a professional's touch, go see Paul. He's that good.

Matthew Catellier

Paul is clearly in a class of his own. He was easily able to tailor a sports coat 2 sizes too large and make it fit perfectly. The job was impeccable, all the proportions are perfect and the sports coat now fits nice and slim. I will be back next week with my other sports coat that needs fixing. Highly recommended!

I've been coming to Paul for all my tailoring needs for the past two years, and he has produced some quality work every time! His prices aren't the cheapest on the market, but you get what you pay for, and with Paul, you get top-notch tailoring. This guy knows what he's doing, and he always looks out for your best interests. If you're looking for a competent, friendly tailor in Montréal, this is the place to go!

I brought Paul a coat I wanted altered to have a leather lining on the outer collar. There were some issues regarding logistics but Paul worked it out with me and proposed that worked perfectly. I got the coat back just a few days later exactly how I wanted it. The worksmanship was excellent and the price I found very fair. Paul himself is an uplifting and truly inviting character. I definitely recommend his work.

Reid Kostenuk

Paul is a miracle worker! I destroyed the crotch of my favorite jeans and now they look flawless. I highly recommend him!!

Marc Mantilla

I highly recommend Alterations Paul Rec. I’ve had Paul alter several pairs of jeans, suit pants, jogging pants and sweaters. Paul takes pride in his work and always delivers quality work and his prices are very fair.

I brought two dresses in the afternoon and they were both ready and perfectly altered the next day at noon. The best service I could hope for

Alex Ness

Great service! Paul tailor my suit for it to fit perfectly. Very skilled and good price

Yao-Tsung Yu

Highly recommended for any tailoring needs. I brought in a vintage thrift find heavy duty army jacket for Paul. The job was super well done. Fits perfectly now on me! The price is a bit on the pricier side but totally worth it. No BS, and he delivers on the date he promised. The best I’ve found working with Paul was that he has a strong sense of what “fit” means. He explains to you what he thinks go wrong on your garment and why it does not work on you. he tells you the works he is going to perform, things such as how much materials he is going to remove and where he might need to re-sew.

Caitlin Bazylykut

Last summer I had a jumpsuit that was too long in the legs hemmed here and it was done very quickly and you could not even tell they were hemmed. 10/10 would recommend.

Brendan Mackenzie

Great service!

Bryan Wong

Great service and skills! Brought in a trench coat and Paul had it altered perfectly to fit my upper body.

Sarah Harris

I got my gown altered by Paul - he is very talented and does excellent work! He is also such a nice man, makes great suggestions, but ultimately listens to you and does exactly what you ask for! Would recommend for sure!

Antonio Iacovelli

I've been visiting Paul for my tailoring needs for a number of years, now. Paul has always been professional and courteous with me and he plies his trade with great skill. I've always been satisfied with his work, for which he charges a fair price. On the basis of my numerous experiences with Paul, I have recommended him to friends and family without reservation.

Yi Fang

Paul has helped me on suit jackets, pants and shirts. He is patient and he always communicates well.

Mathilde Beauvais

Amazing service! Went in to shorten a pair of jeans and they were ready the next day! Doesn't even look like anything was done - could have mistaken them for a brand new pair of jeans. Really impressed and will be returning.

Bobby Mac

Paul transformed an ill fitting hand me down dinner jacket from my brother into a show stopper. Superior tailoring, full points

Marie

He really seems to be able to tailor a variety of things. I had a bridesmaid dress with lots of layers hemmed here. Later, I brought vintage denim shorts to be taken in at the waist. He reconstructed one pair to fit me perfectly. He has been accommodating of deadlines which was great.

Emile Liu

Very talented tailor based in Montreal. A bit on the pricier side, but I definitely recommend his craftsmanship to anyone needing work done on their garments!

McArthur Jean

Great service and workmanship! I was given a bespoke look at a ready to wear price.

Lorenzo Marcil

My favourite pair of jeans had a seam come undone, and another tailor had tried to repair it and I was not happy with the quality of the work as it was very uneven. I took it to Paul, and he was very understanding and agreed to help. He fixed the seam by hand in less than 10 minutes and it was straight as an arrow. I was so happy with the quality of the work, and he did it all free of charge. I am only going to go to Paul for any other work I need from now on.

Tyler Fink

Paul is amazing. Would recommend anytime.

Shannon Keenan

I gave Paul several pairs of my designer jeans to alter at the waist. He altered the fit perfectly to my specifications! Can't recommend enough! Thank you Paul!

Trevor Shillington

Paul is the best in town. I had a suit that needed alterations a week before a wedding and he had no problems getting it done. He made a baggy suit look like a clean European cut, it looks great now! Thanks Paul, and to anyone reading this you don’t need to look elsewhere - Paul is your guy

Did not listen. Had to change in a storage closet. Did not have alterations completed when it came time to pick up. Expensive.
