Alterations & custom tailoring in Guelph
Six services, one table. Start here if you are not sure which one you need. Bring the garment in and we will tell you.
Everything here is done by the same hands in the same studio on Gordon Street. A hem gets the same standard as a wedding gown, and you get an honest answer about what a garment can and cannot take before any work begins.
If you already know what you need, the six pages below go straight to it. If you do not, call or walk in. That is what the first fitting is for.

Reviews
What people say when they are not sure what they need
I walked into her store confused, a little bit frustrated and nervous and I left feeling reassured and at peace. Gunit is so kind, patient and explains everything so well.
I have had several projects that they have completed for me, including alterations of my own clothing, alterations of clothing that I have bought at their store and a shawl that they made without a pattern.
The tailoring was done beautifully with great attention to detail and perfect fit. The service was professional, friendly and completed before time.
