How the scorecard works

Rating is a shop’s live Google star average. Review volume is how many customers have rated it, set against the other Buffalo-area tailors. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a 4.9 from hundreds of customers counts for more than a 5.0 from a few. Recency reflects how lately people are still leaving reviews.

What drives alteration prices in Buffalo

No prices are published here. Tailoring prices depend on the garment, the fabric and how much rework it needs: a hem is a different job from taking in a gown with layers of tulle or resizing a leather jacket. Ask for a quote on each item before you leave it, and confirm whether a rush job carries a fee.

Where Buffalo’s tailors are based

Several of these shops sit on Niagara Falls Blvd in Tonawanda, and others are in Buffalo, on Elmwood Ave and Washington St. Looking for a tailor near me? Each listing has a phone number so you can confirm hours and turnaround before you go.

What to ask before you drop off a garment

  • How long will the alteration take, and is there a rush option?
  • What will it cost, and is that quote for the whole job?
  • How many fittings will a gown or suit need?
  • Do you work with delicate or layered fabric like tulle or leather?
  • What are your hours, and do I need an appointment?
