Alterations Pricing
Competitive pricing
​
Here is a snapshot of my prices. Final pricing is subjective and will be evaluated on a project by project bases, but here is what people typically spend. ​​
​
I guarantee my work, this ensures that, if there are any adjustments needed once you try on with me again, I will do those free of charge. Final payment for alterations is due at pick up for the remaining balance. I prefer cash payments but if that is not possible I do take Zelle or Venmo as well.
​
Final price is dependent on each project.
