Valentina's Ladies/Men's Tlrng

I have been coming to this alteration shop for over 10yrs. They are the best in bellevue. The owner; Sandy and her seamstress is been there for me with all of my alteration needs. I have an un-even body and I have a very hard time finding a clothes that would fit me. And they seem to do the magic with all of my clothes. Great people, great job and very hospitable. Pros: They do whatever they can to do your alteration. more

I brought in two pairs of designer jeans to get hemmed - should be pretty simple and inexpensive. I asked the woman how much it would cost for both pairs of pants to be hemmed with the original hem and she replied $35 total for both pairs. Great, that was what I had expected. I proceeded to try on the pants to get measured and marked. It turned out that I only needed the original hem on one pair of jeans and I could do a regular hem on the second pair (great, even less expensive yet). She requested payment before I left - which was wonderful, considering I have heard all of the horror stories of people not getting their clothing back without paying obscene amounts of money. She wrote up the receipt and requested $53 plus tax, which was clearly way off her original quote of $35.00, 5 minutes before. As I questioned her, she completely denied her previous quote, acting like I was crazy, stating that it would be $17.50 per leg on the original hem and $18.00 total for the regular hem pants. Who prices alterations by the leg? Like I want one leg cut short and the other left long? I don't think so. Needless to say, I took my pants and didn't pay one cent. If you go to Valentina's make sure to ask if the price quote is per pair, or per leg! It would just be easier to go somewhere else! Pros: Location - next to Bellevue Square Cons: They try to bait and switch on you - they price pant hems per leg more

After a horrible experience at Pacific Alterations next door I was reluctant to get alterations again, but was pleasantly surprised when I went to Valenrina's They were friendly, professional and prices were reasonable, they took payment up front so there were no surprises as far as inflated prices when I picked up my garment. I had them alter a very expensive dress and they did a fantastic job and I wll be taking my wedding dress to them soon. Please go to this business and avoid PACIFIC ALTERATIONS (read their reviews before you choose!) Pros: friendly, professional, reasonable and great work more

Great turnaround time and honest about the time it will take as well as what they are capable of doing. I have used them numerous times and have been very happy with all the items. The main things I have gone to them for are bridesmaid dresses and such. Again...all the work has been tremendous. Cons: A little bit of drive from Kent...but well worth it!!! more

Turnaround time is good and prices are okay, but the hem on both of my pants came off only a few weeks later! They refused to re-hem without me paying more money.. absolutely ridiculous! more
