What customers say

Happy with your alteration? A short Google review helps neighbours find Ephraim — and means a lot to a small business.

  • I have been using Ephraim for alterations for years now — whether items needed to be shortened, mended or scrolls sewed onto blazers, his work is always incredibly neat and on time. He is a very capable tailor and a lovely man who I do not hesitate to recommend.

    Jackie

  • Ephraim is amazing! We have been using him for all our tailoring and he just repaired an old coat that had started fraying. I will never take my family's clothes anywhere else.

    Ralene

  • He really is amazing, his work is meticulous. I've used him to fix other tailors' mistakes before and highly recommend him.

    Grace

  • He is very good. I know him well.
