Snip and Tuck is a cutting edge alterations
service for both men and women
No matter how much we spend on an outfit or where we buy it, we rarely find a perfect fit. Unless, of course, we conform to the model size - and not many of us do.
Also, if we buy good classic clothes, to last, our body structure has a tendency
to change over the course of time. We’re all different but you’ll know what I
mean.
This is where our fitting / alterations come into their own:
1. If you
don’t feel good in that new outfit and keep pushing it to the back of the
wardrobe
2. If that great classic has lost its appeal or simply doesn't fit
any more - too tight, or maybe you lost weight
Don’t throw them out -contact Snip and Tuck... In most cases we can refit or restyle so that you’ll feel
confident and stylish in your clothes again.

curtains & blinds
I can make you curtains, cushion covers and roman blinds, made to measure, to
match your décor.
All I need to know to make your curtains or blinds is:
1. Whether or not you’re using a pole or a track, and its width
2. The total drop of your curtains (and the heading height, if applicable)
3. The curtain heading you would like
4. If you require any particular fullness to the curtains
5. If you would like pelmets, tiebacks, cushion covers etc in the same
material
Dressmaking
If you have a problem getting a good fit, why not consider having an outfit
custom made to 'your' requirements.
Also, for that special occasion, I can
make prom dresses and ball gowns to your chosen style and fabric.
All
custom made garments include two fittings
