B Tailor Shop

There is nothing "B" about these guys. Top notch service, A+. Don't waste your time with Men's Wearhouse. These guys are fast, friendly, fairly priced and most importantly RELIABLE. Have had 2 alterations done here but I will be exclusively taking my alterations to them from here on out.

I brought a dress in for a simple hem alteration, but unfortunately had a very disappointing experience. The woman I interacted with—who I believe is the owner—was not welcoming from the start. When I tried on the dress, she seemed confused and repeatedly said so. She then told me that my dress was "stressing her out" and suggested I take it elsewhere. I’ve never encountered a business that was so unwilling to provide service. It felt as though she simply didn’t want my business.

We have been tailoring garments here for the last 30 years, and they are great.

She did an excellent job on hemming 4 pair of slacks the perfect length. I'm a shorty and I can never find pants that fit me in the length. She totally solved my problem and the price was right. No one wants to spend a lot of money on having clothes altered after you just bought them brand new. She was very reasonable and fast.

The owner was so nice and friendly but I’m really unhappy with the hem of my jeans. The thread color was great, she was able to match to the original. The thing that upsets me is they were a pair of Levi’s Wedgie Fit straight legs (so not cheap) and they came out looking almost like bell bottom/bootcut jeans. They ended up being wider at the bottom than before as the original hem was more tapered. I tried measuring the inside of them as well, supposed to be 14.5” according to Levi’s site and they are wider than that now. I wish I could have them fixed but I’m too worried that they’ll get messed up.

I’m so glad we found Sandra! After losing 40 something pounds she helped me alter some of my favorite clothes so I can still wear them! I look great and love my “new” old clothes! Her prices are great too and everything is itemized so you know exactly what you’re paying for not just an abstract number. I’m writing this after my third visit and I’ll definitely be back.

Wow what a great experience! Kim was awesome and sooo professional!! She knows all the ins and outs of her trade!! I came in mid-week for a wedding I had on a Friday and she stayed late and spent extra time with me to make sure my jacket fit perfect !! What a great person ! Thank you!!

I have used B Tailor several times before and they have done nice work, but frankly they were easy hem jobs on men’s pants. This past week however they did a beautiful job on my daughter’s pleated school skirt and graciously expedited the job after the fact (she didn’t mention she needed it ASAP). The quality work and flexibility to get it done fast was very appreciated.

I have been here several times, for pant hemming, shirt hemming, and patches. The lady who works here is friendly and always does a nice job. The prices are fair, there is easy parking, and the clothes are always done when I need them.

There is a hidden gem in Rockville and I discovered it today. I was going to take a jacket I bought online back to the store. Then, I decided to see if I could have it altered. I went to B Tailor Shop. Located right next to Duck Donuts, they are wonderful. Mrs. Kim was such a delight. She took a look at the jacket and gave me her advise. Then, she asked me when I wanted the jacket back. I asked for Friday and she said that if I had a few minutes wait, she would do it for me now. I was thrilled. She did an excellent job! And, their prices are fair and reasonable. What a great experience! I highly recommend them.

I believe the owner helped me out she was super helpful & had me try on my pants & skirts that I wanted taken in & also my shirt that need the shoulders taken in. I'm very happy with her work & will definitely be coming in. I also think the prices are fair for the quality of the work & how fast it was. Come here!!!

I was inspired to write this review due to another review mentioning poor treatment. I came into this shop with a leather skirt that needed to be taken in. I placed it on the counter and asked if she could-- (nothing because I was cut off). I continued on asking if there was anything she could do and she rudely and curtly told me flat out no. She made me feel embarrassed, like I shouldn't have even asked. I felt like I was shooed out the store. Maybe the material was too difficult to alter, but she could have explained it politely and maybe I'd have come back with some of my other work wear (which is what I'm looking for now) and wedding. I went back and forth regarding whether it could've been some type of prejudice/ bias, but having read another review, I am no longer doubting myself. Just find somewhere else to spend your $, and have a pleasant experience.

I was hoping I would write nothing but glowing reviews about this place but after being treated in such a negative way I can't. I'm writing this review in hopes the tailor can reflect on how she treats people who may not look like her...or she may deem are not as good as her. I went it to ask to get measurements for a dress being sewn abroad (in Africa) for a wedding. I also asked to have a shirt of sentimental value to me repair at the elbows after many years of wear. She flat out refused. She also said she only does measurements for men's suits. She wouldn't try to work with me or help me. I was willing to pay for the measurements but I was dismissed in such a negative manner it was incredibly hurtful and embarrassing. I will never return nor recommend this tailor to anyone

Happy with this tailor shop! Seems like the shop is Korean owned. Took a chance because I needed a wedding dress shortened and had 3 weeks to get it done. At first walking in, I wasn't greeted with the happiest hello! But that's ok. The lady came out to help me and had a direct way about her, which again is okay. I went to try the dress on and stepped up on their platform for her to see. Do not forgot the shoes you plan to wear with the dress so accurate measurements can be taken!! The dress had many layers, she had to charge me extra because of the extra material needed to take off. It ended up being about $100. She used this chalk contraption to make a line around the bottom so she knew where to cut. She suggested a button for the bust area which I appreciate! Would not want a slip! Since I had time she asked if it were okay to take 2 weeks to complete and that was completely fine with me. I came back with the scheduled time and the dress looked great! No complaints in their work!

My favorite tailor shop to get jeans taken in and hems shortened! They do great work, are very quick and reasonably priced. So thankful for this tailor shop. They do bridesmaid dresses tailoring as well. Very fairly priced compared to competitors in the area.

Friendly. Accessible. Clearly very experienced tailors here. I had two pairs of pants get hemmed for my trip to Italy this summer. Executed flawlessly. Price is right. Reasonable wait time. Solid shop.

Altered address at the last minute did a great job. They were extremely friendly nice great rates.

Great work. Fair prices. After getting a few things done, we returned with more things to be altered.

I went to her shop she did not even greet us but as soon she as I tried on my dress she told me to just come in another day before even telling her what I wanted. When I tried on the dress she was assumed the fixes were going to be too expensive for me. definitely do not recommend do not know what her problem was we had a feeling it was racist because I just don't know why else she would make that assumption.

I wasn't overly impressed with B Shop Tailor. I stopped in with two pieces that needed to be addressed. A simple dress that had ripped at the seam and a skirt that needed to be taken in. I was very impressed with the fact that the woman working was able to assist me right away and listed to all of my concerns. However; there's no prices advertised anywhere. You don't find out how much your alterations will be until after everything has been pinned. Honestly, it made me feel obligated to have everything done there despite the prices being higher than my go to shop. Fixing the rip was $15 and the skirt was $20, I'll be honest, the skirt and the dress were originally less than the price to fix them. I literally could've bought the prices again for less than it costs to fix them. The alterations were done quickly was again I was impressive.... but when they say they open at 9 and no one shows up until 9:15 I was no longer impressed. The next day the dress ripped exactly where they had fixed it. I don't want to blame the tailor because clearly I bought the dress on clearance for $15 and the fabric could've been crappy but it didn't leave me feeling confident in the shop. I don't think I'll be back. I was in a pinch and stopped in but will go to my go to person next time. The woman was very friendly and attentive though, they definitely have great customer service.

We have had pants, shirts, men's blazers and skirts hemmed and tailored here. Always perfect and done on time as promised. Very sweet family that runs this establishment.

Straightforward and friendly. Turn around within less than a week and fairly priced for cash price. Just had a jumpsuit hemmed and it was a job well done.

I needed a work dress altered, so I brought it in. B Tailor suggested several different ways they could take it in to eliminate the issues with the fit. We decided on the best approach, and now the dress looks like it was made for me! I'm so happy with it. I'll be back with other items to tailor.

Very professional service.I went there to fixed up my new pants.The alteration,(the hems of my pants,)were very well done and at an affordable price.

New to the area and didn't have a go to alterations place. I stopped by with the bridesmaid dress that I had to get altered. The lady here was so friendly and helpful. Alterations were done in about a week but I'm sure it could have been done sooner if needed. Will definitely be returning if I need any other alterations completed.

He does a wonderful job - both for simple things and an elaborate dress for a special occasion! Very pleased and would highly recommend this business!

Wow!!! 30 + years of experience!!! I always always go here whenever I need alterations. I have been to several places and they never meet my expectation... But B tailor Shop is magical place where you can do whatever you want with your clothes, they will do it for ya! Customer service is the best!!! They always do on time!

I came here to hem my jeans. The woman was extremely kind and efficient, and my jeans came out perfectly the next week. Thank you so much, I'll be sure to come back here!

They did a fantastic job altering expensive DSquared jeans. She had to take a significant amount of material from the waste and re-stitch a new seam. I don't know how she did it, but it looks like the jeans were never altered. All of the seams match perfectly like they were created like this originally. Very happy. I took another pair to a different tailor in the area and they did not do as good of a job. This will be my new go to place for any alterations.

I am new to the area, and desperately needed some work done. Finding a skilled tailor is one of the most challenging things when you relocate. Well that, and locating a good pizza joint. But that's a review for another day. Before taking more complex items in, I took in a pair of trousers that needed heamed. While a seemingly easy task, I've had issues with prior tailors messing this up. From sloppy stitching, to each leg a different length and even "cheap (?)" thread being used that unravels within a wearing or two. Unreal, I agree. When I arrived, a very polite lady (Sandra?) greeted me, directed me where to change and the visit began...from soliciting my input into length and break, the trousers were pinned and the wait began. A week later... presto. Perfect job. Right in length and break. Very slight, if you're curious. Back I ventured with two vest from Cordings of Piccadilly. These, if you know them, run very "generous" in the body, but fairly true to fit in the chest. Unless you have a portly build, there is a lot of fabric left and even cinching the keeper in the back, they look like you're wearing your dads clothes. Know what I mean? This time, the lady defered to the gentleman (Kong?), working in the back. He was professional, spending a great deal of time pin fitting the sides so the fit was slimming, symmetric but not restrictive. The work would, in essence, require a far higher degree of skill vs. what you would commonly find at your local dry cleaner. A week later, and 3 days before Christmas, in I went. Guess what? Come on... guess. Ok, fine... they were perfect. They fit as a tailor garment is expected to fit. My conclusion, these people are the real deal! I would not hesitate to take them anything needing to be altered.

This shop changed hands recently (from an older couple to their younger relative). The new tailor is excellent and enthusiastic about her work. I had a difficult alteration for a pair of suit trousers that she was able to handle, and for a reasonable price as well.

They helped to restructure a couple of jackets for me since I have broad shoulders. They did a great job and saved me from having to custom order suits. I recommend them for high quality work.

Love this place. Took in 4 pairs of pants to shorten the hem, $16 dollars each. Did a good job and would come back again. The owners are very nice and finish altering garments in a timely manner. Usually, if you don't need it ASAP, they finish within a week. But if you need something done the day of, try to get there in the morning and they'll finish it by closing time with no extra charge. I once brought in a suit jacket and she fixed the shoulder pads, shortened the sleeve length and jacket length all within one day with no extra fee. If you need something done fast, I suggest you come here. Also, she once shortened the length of my suit jacket but when I took it hone and realized that it was still too long, I went back and she agreed to shorten it even further, with no extra cost. Great service

would truly never go here ever again. it was recommend to me and i needed to add length to a dress for my sisters wedding in less than 2 weeks. instead of telling me that they can help me, the owner spent 25 minutes convincing me that i needed another dress and this dress doesn't look good on me. she started to pull other customers dresses and tell me that i would look better in something like one of those dresses. on top of that, one of her other customers started telling me what was wrong with my dress. it turned into complete body shaming rather than tailoring. i then proceeded to tell her that i cannot buy another dress because i have spent thousands of dollars looking for dresses and she replied "it's not about the money" ??? avoid this place at all costs. everyone i have told this to is disgusted. I ended up taking my dress elsewhere and they took care of my needs no questions or body shaming involved. I was also told that I don't need to add length to the dress because no one will see me... as the maid of honor LOL

Short version: This place is a great place to go for tailoring. I walked in and was measured by Sandra very quickly. To be honest, it took longer to put on and take off my suit than it did for her to measure me and talk about price. Long version: First off, I'd like to really thank Kong and Sandra for their work. I have never been to a tailor before and I'm also not very knowledgeable on how a suit should look on me. I asked Ms. Sandra a lot of question about how long my pants and suit jacket should be and she answered all of my questions while taking my measurements. I also wasn't familiar with how long the process would take so I naively asked if the tailoring could be done by tomorrow because I needed the suit for an event. Ms. Sandra explained to me that it usually takes a week to have it done, but she was very understanding and told me that she would get it done in a day. Which to be honest, I was so grateful that she could do that for me. I haven't seen the end product yet, but I'm confident that the work will be professional. I'm so excited to pick up my suit tomorrow! Bottom line: Best place to go to for tailoring. I'll definitely be coming back here from now on for anything I need done. *edit So I picked up my suit a day after I wrote this review and had a great conversation about tailoring with Sandra. Once I got to the venue with the suit on, I knew everything was on point. Every single person that I talked to made a comment about how well the suit fit. Shout outs to Kong and Sandra, I had a great event with your help!

I've been going to this shop for years, and it's top-notch tailoring from a family run operation. The prices are reasonable given the expert craftsmanship at the shop, and they won't jerk you around with their estimates of how long it will take. There's not a whole lot of English communication to be done, but they'll figure out what you want, and do it right the first time. On many occasions, I've had off the rack sloppy suits transformed into dapper ensembles by the fine folks at B. Two thumbs up for this shop; I live in DC and still trek out to get work done here.

This business advertised "bring us your tricky cases!" "If you've gained weight recently don't buy a new wardrobe, we can alter your clothes!" Believing that, I brought over a bag of old dresses that I'd love to wear again only to be told "oh we can't do this." Which made me quite annoyed at having wasted the gas to come here. And I have no idea what these other reviews are talking about with regards to the warmth and professionalism of the staff because the service I got did not seem friendly IN THE LEAST. This shop is an absolute disappointment.

I am so pleased with the service I received here. I cried when I was able to fit into my bridesmaid dress. It was WAYYYY too small. Sandra was able to take out what little room was on my dress somehow and make it fit to perfection. The price was reasonable, she was fast and very professional. I was so pleased I hugged her before I left. I would come back again!

Not good at all....i waited for half an hour then tried on a formal dress...it needed taking up in the shoulders. The quote was for $105. They said there was so much work with beading....I left disgusted...went to Nordtroms. They are doing the alterations for $48. Same bead work. DO NOT GO.

I bought two pairs of really nice dress pants last week but I didn't quite like the cut. I took them to this place and specified that I wanted the pants to be slimmed. It took less than a day to finish and I didn't have to pay a fortune.

I brought my wedding dress here to get tailored after a bad tailoring experience at David's Bridal. It was a few weeks before my wedding so I was a ball of nerves and Sun put me at ease in their small, low key shop. She spent a lot of time with me helping figure out how to get the dress to fit correctly and what my options were. She kept encouraging me to go back to David's Bridal and get them to fix what they had done but at that point I felt okay to spend a bit more to get it done right. All problems with the dress were fixed and it fit like a glove. So happy I went here!

I brought in a pair of dress pants that needed significant alterations (legs hemmed/tapered and waist taken in a few inches) and I was absolutely thrilled with the end result! I highly recommend this shop!

I've been going to this shop for about five years and have always felt very satisfied. The work was always impeccable, and I'm picky! However, in the last month or two, the ownership has changed and the workmanship is definitely not as good as it once was. I had a complicated outfit that needed to be tailored, but not one that I would have felt concerned about with the previous ownership. By the time I finally took my outfit home, I had visited the shop five times - each time leaving there with another issue with their work. The sleeve length wasn't even, then the hem was uneven. I don't typically write reviews, but I feel like it's necessary to point out that the 5-star work that this business once deserved is not the same anymore. Be careful when taking your fancier pieces here!

I can't express enough how amazing Sandra and her work is. Seriously, I cried and my mother cried when I got my dress back. I had ordered a bridesmaid dress that came in 6 sizes too small in the bust. Sandra took on the impossible and worked her magic, adding in side panels that look like they were meant to be there all along. I honestly didn't think it was possible to fix this dress and my mom was already trying to figure out what we were going to do. It was truly amazing. The dress fits perfectly and I couldn't be happier. I'm now a bride to be and I know exactly where I'm taking my dress for alterations. And, to be honest, any other clothes I have.

I've recently fluctuated in weight and needed to tailor some work pants. This place did an amazing job with them. I feel more confident knowing I'm looking good in my clothes. I will definitely be back with more things needing alterations!

Sandra takes pride in her work and is very honest and explains realistically if something is possible or not, worth the costs or not etc. Quality of her work is excellent! Thank you!!

Very pleased with my results! My two suits fit wonderfully, and the "lines" all around show a perfect, smart and professional appearance. Kong and Sandra, the owners, altered my suits as both needed waist and chest adjustments (Edna's, my drycleaners, recommended them). They were diligent and exacting, even pointed out my back shoulders had "bobbles" that needed adjustment. I hadn't noticed it since purchasing/altering the suits at the store many years ago...apparently its very difficult work. All the while, I felt secure that my suits were in capable hands. I paid a bit more than anticipated but feel the intangibles (keen eye, quiet assurance and inspired confidence by the owners) more than made up for the price. Consider B Tailor Shop if you need tailoring on nice garments. I did, and I'm pleased with the results and with writing this review.

I've had small things fixed here (e.g., fallen hems, missing button) as well as a dress taken in. The service is very friendly and the prices are extremely reasonable. They're great at understanding what you want from the alteration, and my experiences there have felt personalized. Wait times to retrieve your garments are short. This is a fantastic option in the Rockville area, which I highly recommend.

I took a pair of new suit jackets in for alterations. They were huge on me and b tailor was honest that they were simply too big for tailoring - they could it but it would be expensive and they would need to rebuild the jacket. I decided to take a different approach. Found a suit that just needed pants hemmed but needed it quick for a wedding. They turned the pants around quickly and did the job right for a good price. Found my new tailor here for sure.

ZIPS Dry Cleaners somehow managed to put two significant holes on the lefthand cuff of my sports coat. I thought it was game over for my jacket, but brought it into B Tailor Shop just to get a second opinion. They did a significant amount of work for a very reasonable price, and voila, my jacket is now good as new. I am beyond impressed with the job B Tailor Shop did, and highly recommend them for your tailoring needs.

Kong is a master tailor! He altered a dress for me, and several pairs of slacks and two suits for my husband. They are upfront about what they can and cannot do. At the second fitting, my husband asked that some of the pants be a little less fitted, and Kong did a great job to make them perfect. We will be taking all our alterations here.

I have a really hard time trying to find tailors outside of military bases that know what they're doing. I went to this shop that was near Bethesda base. I questioned them over and over if they were able to do what I needed them to do. They assured me they could. I even told them exactly how my patches were supposed to go on my uniform. Of course a week later when I go to pick them up. They are wrong. They wanted me to come back two days later. So that would have put me at a week and a half waiting on one blouse to have name tapes and patches sewn on. I refused and made them fix it there.

I needed my bridesmaid's dress altered in 2 days. It's was almost impossible to find a tailor to do it since it needed adjustment everywhere for such a short notice. But B Tailor did it and they did it well! The dress fit perfectly and they were so pleasant. Two thumbs all the way up!!!

Came here because we (bf & I) felt jilted that Ms Yang from Yang fashions did a terrible job. B Tailor is a mom & pop shop. The mom is a quiet Korean who gets the work done. However, the inside hem looks funny. Almost like a black sticker over the stitching. Of course, it is not noticeable on the outside. $12 for men's hemmed dress pants compared to Ms. Yang for $16 and homegirl wanted cash! This place accepts credit cards (yay!) - most Asian businesses don't accept credit card.

I've had several pairs of pants hemmed here, everything from slacks, to khakis and jeans. They've all come back great, and the stitching looks just like the original sewing, you'd never know they were hemmed! Men's pants are still only $12 for hemming.

This is my go to Tailor for military uniform and civilian clothes...including of late, my wedding dress. While they don't have any personal relationship with me, through the years, they knew me through my tailoring needs--got assignment that requires wearing suites (so they altered my store-bought suites), lost weights for the wedding (so they altered my dresses and pants), wedding (hence the wedding dress), and change of last name (hence changing the name tape on my ABU uniform). I sincerely appreciate their service to me. They are diligent and affordable. They also worked to accommodate my timeline. I am sorry to hear that another service member had issue with patches. That's true when you visit an off-installation, mom-and-pop shop where they don't see military patches and name tapes on a daily basis. Please be kind and take the extra effort to explain the placement of patches.

B Tailor has been my tailor of choice for over 10 years and they have never failed me. Tons of pants and skirts for my first few jobs, bridesmaid dresses, my own wedding dress and most recently one of my favorite tops that I thought I had lost forever. The lace wasn't really lace and it melted when I got near it with an iron. B Tailor took an old lace handkerchief and was able to match the detail and repair the hole. I couldn't and can't thank them enough.
