Sewing And Alterations in Vancouver

“Great, speedy surface. Tge staff were extremely courteous and professional. Definitely worth a visit during short term stays in Vancouver.“

“Najib did a fantastic job with my blazer, highly recommend bringing your suits to him for alterations.“

“I found this place for my fiance for our wedding. From day 1, our experience had been just perfectly splendid. Our suits were custom made since my man is quite big and tall. Mike was so professional, knowledgeable, and knew what he was doing. Then later, Michael was also the same. They took care of all my requests for my fiance's suits. The other 2 gentlemen were also very welcoming and professional. The way the suits were sitting on my fiance was just exquisite. What fine fitting!
I would highly recommend this shop. 10/10 for the experience.
Thank you Brascia!“

“Sampan's Dry Cleaning services are the best in town without a doubt.

I brought in a set of headrest cushions for my car, that were caked in dirt and stains from rolling around in the trunk for a long time, and could not have been happier with the results. Despite the poor condition of the cushions, they came out looking like new!

Pricing was very reasonable and turnaround times were fast. The staff member that took care of me, was very honest and transparent about the possibility that it may not be perfect due to the deep staining, but that they'd try their best as they do for every customer. I believe that all businesses should not offer guarantees unless they are confident they're able to provide full satisfaction, and the honesty of Sampan's staff spoke volumes.

I will definitely return for any dry cleaning or laundry needs in the future, and for anyone looking for a new dry cleaning spot, Sampan is the way to go!“

“Wendy was lovely and accommodating. Managed to do our 2 loads within 3 hrs and half the cost of the hotel around the corner.“

“Phenomenal. Got a same day dry clean & press when I was in a rush. They were even 1.5hr early. Couple legends here“

“from talking on the phone, i got a good feeling about tina. i had purchased three pairs of pants from zara and all of them needed hemming. the place i usually go to get my jeans hemmed, quoted me $20/pair to get my pants shortened. i googled and started calling around to four places and tina convinced me she was the one. she's located on the vancouver block at 736 granville street, unit 321. tina is professional, friendly and well dressed. her shop exudes a quaint and eclectic charm, with a black and white framed photo of the iconic and elegant audrey hepburn. the decor features a mix of classic and whimsical elements, creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere. the display case is filled with an assortment of collectible dolls, decorative items, mini tea sets, and issues of flare fashion magazines. she explained how she is meticulous in her measurements, making sure that the hem is even, and she also presses the hem. for the short time that we interacted, i can tell she is a perfectionist and that she takes pride in her work. i was quoted $18 for each pant. i tried on each pair, and she started to put safety pins and asked if the length was okay. the second pair of pants was a linen mix, and she suggested i wash it first. based on her experience, this may not need to be altered, as linen tends to shrink. the third pant was more dressy, and she suggested i bring this back another day, with the shoes i would normally wear it with, to accurately shorten the pants. she let me try on a pair of her high heels, but it was too high for me. i dropped by on a friday of a long weekend at around 4:00 pm. it was not possible for me to have the pants altered the same day, but tina said it could be done by the next day. since i was busy on saturday, we had agreed that i would come by on monday instead, and yes, credit cards are accepted. at the other place i go to, they only accept cash, or debit, and have to pay before the work is even done. tina does good quality work, one the pants i brought over was even double stitched. she is hardworking and busy, limiting three items of clothing for alterations per visit.“

“Great work on some pretty significant alterations to a suit jacket and pants I brought in. Also, fantastic and friendly service.“

“A friend recommended Modernize Tailors for custom made shirts and suits. My husband had a suit made for a summer wedding and it turned out so well that he had additional shirts made. I also got a women's shirt tailor made and was happy with the results. It's very convenient to have more things made once they already have your measurements.“

“Brought my sweater and vest here for taking in and shortening the sleeves. Very excellently done and the nicest tailors. Very reasonable prices ($30-60 per job)!“

“This is the best place for re-sizing. Price is fair and service is better. I highly recommend. Oh and they are fast too ?“

“Recommended to me by a local fashion designer who knows her sewing. Amazing work. She’s some major alterations for me and everything I’ve bought recently looks like it was made by a tailor, rather than store bought. Dry cleaning is fast too. Best in Vancouver IMO.“

“They did a great job hemming my jeans and cinching in the waist. I would go back & recommend.“

“I have recently replaced my boat cushions and v-berth mattress with Xeno. They delivered service in a short time with the quality work. I will use their service again
Thank you Xeno“

“Michael absolutely NAILED it!!!Made a beautiful burgundy velvet coat for my wedding, and altered another suit to fit beautifully. Fully recommend and look forward to working with him again.“

“Incredible repair services. I got a number of items repaired from replacing the leather straps of much loved handbag to resoling my favourite boots for winter as well as minor repairs on a belt and another pair of leather shoes. Highly recommend.“

“First time working with them. Having my Santa Claus suit faux fur replaced. Went over what I needed and she seemed to get the details. I will be posting the results when I pick up the suit in a 3 weeks. Thank you Santa Claus (for hire). Sleigh Phone 604-323-3559.“

“Great service, quick turnaround and even better, great price!!! Give them a shot, you won’t be sorry!“

“This big store has a beautifully decorated selection of most models of Pfaff sewing machines in stock, as well as a smattering of other sewing products. Sabine was extremely helpful to me, but I did know exactly the model I wanted. I believe she would be great at helping you choose the best model for your needs. When I picked up my machine, she offered to show me how to thread it, but I thought it would be easy enough to follow the manual at home, which it was. I am sure I will be able to ask her on the phone if any questions come up. I will definitely be purchasing more accessories here, and it's nearby for repairs or maintenance needs. Their bookkeeping methods are a little dated; they accept only cash or credit cards, which they run through the old-fashioned carbon way. Receipts are hand-written neatly and in detail. I heartily recommend this store.“

“Brought in a winter coat with fur hood that was covered in mold & moss on it due to excessive home water damage - despite being apprehensive if their services would work on my coat - A Star dry cleaners did a fantastic job and the coat looks brand new!!
Plus they are professional - friendly“

“I got four things tailored for just over $100. Incredible value and great work by Benny and her colleauges. Would highly recommend!“

“Amazing service. I do all my alterations + dry cleaning here and would highly recommend!“

“Fast and practical, very convenient for laundry days, it doesn't have as many machines to wash large loads, but it's still good, it has chairs to wait and some tables to fold and organize clothes“

“Yale City Dry Cleaner is my go-to for delicate items like silk dresses and vintage pieces since the past few months now. They always handle my clothes with care, and everything comes back looking crisp and clean. I wholeheartedly recommend them!“
