What the scorecard measures

Rating is each shop’s live Google star average. Review volume is how many customers have rated it, set against the others on this page. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a 4.9 from hundreds of people counts for more than the same score from a handful. Recency shows how lately people are still posting reviews.

What alterations cost in Nashville

No prices are published here. Alteration pricing depends on the garment and the job: a plain hem is a different order of work from taking in a beaded gown or rebuilding a suit sleeve, and a tight deadline can change the quote. Ask for a price per item before you drop anything off.

Alteration shops by address

These shops sit on Hillsboro Pike, Martin St, Nolensville Pike, 8th Ave S and Harding Pl. Searching for a tailor near me? Each listing shows a phone number, address and map link so you can pick the closest one.

Questions to ask a tailor before you drop off

  • What is the price per item, and does it change for a rush?
  • What date will it be ready, and will you text me when it is?
  • Can I try the garment on and approve the fit before I leave?
  • Have you worked with this fabric before, such as beading, velvet or leather?
  • What are your hours on pickup day?

Frequently asked questions
