Repair Services
Clothing repairs,
assessed with care
Bring a well-loved piece back into use with a clear assessment of the fabric, construction and repair options.
Worn denim
Jeans Patching & Crotch Repairs
We assess thinning denim before reinforcing it. The repair is chosen for durability and a finish that suits the garment, with the final result dependent on the remaining fabric.
Split or fraying seams
Seam Repairs
Open seams, loose hems and worn stress points can often be re-stitched and reinforced after we inspect the seam allowance and surrounding cloth.
Closures and pulls
Zip Assessment & Replacement
A zip is checked before replacement is recommended. We assess the tape, teeth, slider and garment construction to decide whether an adjustment or a new zip is appropriate.
Jackets, skirts and dresses
Lining Repairs
Torn or detached linings are assessed alongside the outer garment so the repair supports the way the piece is worn and moves.
Every Stitch Considered.

Repair pricing,
