Reviews of Lakeview Alterations (Tailor)

Stephanie Winters

Absolutely amazing service! I came for a wedding with only days to spare and Quinn had me ready to go in no time. Beautiful work, and excellent custome service. I will use Lakeview Alterations in the future!

I never leave reviews, but I felt the work was so good, it needed to be recognized. I had a tear in my jeans in a really difficult place to repair and the owner repaired the jeans so well. She patched and sewed it so well,you can hardly see it - it must have been so much work and the prices are some of the best in the city. 10/10 would highly highly recommend!!

I have now been taking my clothes to Quinn for over 6 years now. She used to have a location in canyon meadows that was only a 10min drive from me. Her service and personality are the absolute best hands down. She now has moved about a 30min drive from me but I always make the drive to take my items to her because I know they will be taken care of! She has even dropped my clothes off to me in Mckenzie Towne where I live when she has to drive her kids to music and dance classes. I dropped my recent order off 5 pants needed hemming and she had them ready to go the next business day!!!! She is truly one of a kind and has great customer service!! Thanks Quinn & Staff!!

Had ordered two pairs of distressed jeans online and they were way too big for me , but I had taken the tags off and couldn't return them. Quinn saved the day as she was able to alter them perfectly to my size , saving me alot of money. Great service, friendly and affordable.

Amazing!! The lady who runs this business is so nice and very professional! I definitely recommend this place for your alterations! She altered my bridesmaid’s dress for my sisters wedding. I came in quite late, but she was more then happy to take me as a client and finished the dress on time and it fit perfectly!!

Christina Hilgartner

I wanna say a Huge thankyou to the manager of this amazing store! I was in dire stress because my grad dress no longer fit me and grad was coming up. I had originally gone to many other seamstresses and asked for advice, many had turned me down. When coming here, I was very well treated and they were able to fix my dress and infact made it look even better than the original! Such a highly recommend place to go, and would recommend to all!

This is by far my favorite place to take alterations. Quinn & her team are not only amazing at what they do but also very reasonably priced. My dream was to wear my wedding dress at our 10 year reunion in Cuba and finally do my trash the dress photoshoot. We had 3 failed attempts to do the shoot when we originally got married in 2008. Despite losing 40lbs, I realize a week prior to our trip that I was a few pounds off and the dress looked funny. My bridesmaid suggested I look into adding a panel. Something I hadn't know about and realized it was likely too short notice. I came in to Lakeview Alterations and they surprised me by committing to make it happen. I am truly grateful for the late nights & commitment these ladies dedicated to help make my dream come true and didn't even think of charging extra for. I had to tip and give them this review to show them how much I appreciate them. With out them, I would not have these beautiful photos. Thank you!!

Professional service and very good quality work. Quinn and staff are nice and helpful. I am always happy with the work they've done. Highly recommended. A+++

Scott Smith

Skill level is top tier. I took in my over-sized suit and it came back fitting perfectly and was modernized. And all for the fraction of the price of a new suit. Speed was quick and contact was excellent.

Larissa Goldhart

I took a bridesmaid dress here recently for alterations, as it had been ordered online. In some places it was too small and in others - too big. She did an AMAZING job the first go round in making it fit perfectly. And they are super friendly when you go in :)

Chantal Rozenberg

Very nice people and did a fast great job. But only take cash.

I’m so glad I took the advice of many of the other reviewers for Lakeview Alterations - what a great find! Quinn has replaced a zipper on a ski jacket for me, and today I picked up a suede jacket which had a rip in the elbow (not on a seam, so I thought it was hopeless). The repairs were flawless! I highly recommend Quinn at Lakeview Alterations for her prompt and professional service.

Laura-Gene Pardoe

I've been enjoying the helpful and prompt service for years! Quinn always looks at each item and determines the most effective AND practical approach. Today she replaced the slider on my husbands winter jacket rather than the entire zipper which was considerably less expensive- thank you!

Scott Sowinski

Quinn was great, she redid the lining in one of my favorite p coats and it's as good as new. Also took it in a bit and hemmed a couple pair of jeans . I'd highly recommend this spot for all your alteration needs.

Amanda Saltesz

I would highly recommend lakeview alterations! I got married in August, 2018 and had my dress altered by Jessica Bridal. They took 3 weeks to get a hem and a minor alteration near the under arm done and it cost over $300. The dress looked loose when I tried it on after those alterations but the lady at Jessica Bridal said I wouldn't want it any tighter for reasons that didn't make sense; it kind of felt like she just wanted to check my dress off the to do list. I wasn't happy with it so I went to Lakeview Alterations and she noticed the extra fabric immediately, quoted me a super reasonable price, and got it done in 3 days. She was sweet and encouraging and made my dress look exactly how I wanted it to look. 5 stars for sure!

Second time going here and really great customer experience both times! They are professional, non-judgemental, and know how to tailor clothing to fit perfectly. I had a number of dress shirts taken in at the waist. Now, they fit my build very nicley while acheiving classic proportions. Will definitely be returning in the future!

George Gagnon

The best alterations experience I have had to date. Super friendly and helpful. Great price too.

I came here based on reviews online and am not sure if management has changed recently? I am not impressed with the quality of work done on my clothing. One item was let out far too much and another not taken in enough (she kept insisting on making items slightly bigger to allow for weight gain- I am not a large woman and don't intend on that, and would rather my clothes fit, that's why I altered them in the first place). Suffice it to say, some items came back too big, she did not finish the work on a pair of pants I brought in (the seam is still ripped) and the zipper she put into a nice dress I brought in is so cheap it split and caused me a very embarrassing moment at work. I would not recommend this alterations store.

Sarah Maurer

I needed a blouse hemmed in a rush and she was so sweet and accommodating. Even sent a personal text message letting me now it was available for pickup a couple of hours later. All this AND it was a perfect fit. It's always great having reliable local businesses you can depend on. - Sarah

Sharon Lamb

We brought my daughters wedding dress in to be altered and needed guidance with a few items. The recommendations were perfect and the dress was completed in plenty of time for the wedding. We were overwhelmed with the quality and the service. Highly recommend this place.

Allan Mowbray

We have been going to Lakeview Alteration for over a year and have always experienced excellent service. Most recently, Quinn went out of her way to open the store on her day off so that I was able to pick up my son's pants before I went out of town. Thank you Quinn!

I have posted a review one year ago and since then, Lakeview Alterations - Quinn has been my go-to tailor. Recently, I ripped my Camelbak backpack while snowboarding in the trees. The top section of the backpack where you can store an avalanche shovel, was completely ripped (before photo). I took it to Lakeview Alterations hoping that it could be saved. Quinn worked her magic and she saved me hundreds of dollars to replace the Camelbak for a very reasonable price. I don't know with what I'm going to challenge Quinn, but I know that Quinn will fix it! Quinn is great at finding solutions for any kind of alterations. She fixed a rip on my snowboard glove which I thought could not be fixed. Recently she fixed rips on my body armor jacket. She provides honest and prompt service. You get quality service for reasonable price. She will text you as soon as your item is ready for pickup. I strongly suggest her services.

Alexis Beaulieu

The ladies at Lakeview Alterations are amazing! They did a fantastic job altering my bridesmaid dress and fixing the strap of a dress that had ripped off (it looks brand new). The prices are very fair, and they have great customer service! I highly recommend their alterations shop.

Caroline L'Heureux

Excellent service!!'

Michelle K

Lienna was highly recommended to me by my wedding photographer/videographer team. She greeted me warmly, was extremely professional and offered sophisticated solutions to alter my wedding dress to fit me better - I could tell she has an eye for a good fit! I was very happy with the quality of her work and her rates are extremely reasonable. I have no hesitation in recommending Lienna for alterations and will continue seeking services in the future!

Jessica Shimozawa

I had to get my wedding dress altered last minute, they were so accommodating and nice!! My dress was finished within a week, although the alterations weren't too intensive. Reasonably priced and the quality of work was amazing!! I will definitely be taking any other alterations here.

Sir Awesome McHandsome

Very friendly, knowledgeable and timely. Made me feel at home - I'll definitely come here for any future tailoring needs!

Adam Chambers
