Alteration and Repair Service
Behind every great outfit is a great tailor. Let our tailors make your clothes fit you perfectly and comfortably!

Buying off-the-rack clothes is convenient. You find a style you love, it’s right on-trend, and it checks all your boxes – except one. The fit. The sleeves can be too long, the waist doesn’t sit just so, or maybe the hemline just feels off.
But you don’t have to settle, and you definitely don’t have to start all over. At Martinizing Cleaners, we can make the clothes you already love work for the way you live right now. Whether you’ve dropped a size, changed your shape, or simply want to feel your best in everything you wear, we’ll get your garments looking and feeling just right.
Look your best every time you step out the door. Book your fitting or pickup with Martinizing Cleaners today and love how everything fits you again!

The Difference a Great Fit Makes, Every Single Day
Think tailoring is just for tuxedos and special occasions? Not quite! It’s the everyday upgrade your ill-fitting clothes need. Even your go-to jeans or favorite work blouse can feel elevated with a few thoughtful adjustments.
Better Shape and Silhouette
When your clothes fit you just right, they highlight your best features and fall exactly where they should to showcase a tailored silhouette. That kind of polish gives you an instantly more put-together look, even if you’re just running errands or heading into the office.
Boosted Comfort
A waistband that doesn’t pinch. A sleeve that doesn’t ride up. These little fixes make a big difference in how your clothes feel as you go about your day.
Longer Wear Life
Tailored clothes last longer. A great fit helps prevent fabric strain and uneven wear, meaning your favorite items stay in rotation for years, not months.
Sustainable Style Starts with Altering What You Already Own
Altering what you already have is one of the easiest, smartest ways to build a more sustainable wardrobe. It keeps your favorites in rotation longer, saves you money, and helps reduce waste in a big way. At Martinizing Cleaners, we’re all about making clothes last and not ending up in a landfill.
Here’s how alterations and repairs support a more sustainable lifestyle:
- Reduces textile waste by extending the life of garments that would otherwise be discarded.
- Cuts down on constant buying by making your existing clothes fit better than anything off the rack.
- Lowers your fashion footprint by avoiding the energy and resources used in manufacturing new items.
- Encourages thoughtful consumption by helping you appreciate and invest in what you already own.
- Supports circular fashion – repair, reuse, and tailor instead of replacing too soon.
