Top Suit Tailor related questions

The final cost depends on several factors, including the complexity of the task, the fabric used, the type of suit and stitching, and the skill level of the tailor. 


Suit alterations start at $5 for simple tasks like hand-sewn front shank buttons and can go up to $250 for more extensive changes such as adding a new lining. For trouser alterations, adding buttons can cost $3, while tapering a full leg may cost up to $45. For a more precise estimate, consult your Tasker.

When choosing a suit tailor on Airtasker, make sure to check the Tasker's profile and reviews from past clients. You can also ask for samples of their work to gauge their skills and style. It's important to hire suit tailors near you with top ratings, proven expertise, and a strong history of great customer service.

The time frame depends on the type of tailoring. Made-to-measure suits usually take about six to eight weeks, depending on the complexity of the design, availability of materials, and the tailor's workload. For bespoke suits, some tailors might have you wait up to four months. For an exact estimate, it's best to discuss directly with your Tasker.


If you need a suit fast for a formal event, consider buying an off-the-rack suit and having it altered instead.

Made-to-measure suits use existing patterns and adjust them to fit your measurements. Aside from choosing the fabric and style, there is very limited opportunity to customise this type of suit. On the other hand, bespoke suits are entirely crafted from scratch with patterns tailored specifically to you, with every detail personalised.

Here is a list of what suit tailors near you can typically do to improve the fit:

  • Shorten or lengthen the trouser hems

  • Adjust the trouser leg width

  • Alter the jacket sleeve length

  • Change garment linings

  • Add sleeve buttons

  • Adjust waist fit


Some alterations, like reshaping jacket quarters, altering lapels, or changing button configurations, may not always be feasible.



To ensure a perfect fit, a tailor will take precise measurements during your fitting. You'll have the opportunity to discuss style preferences, fabric choices, and any specific alterations you want. There will be trial fittings throughout the session to refine the suit’s fit and appearance.

  1. Follow the care instructions provided by your tailor, which may include dry cleaning recommendations and proper storage methods. 

  2. Use a garment brush between wears to remove dust.

  3. Hang your suit on a well-shaped hanger to maintain its structure. 

  4. Avoid excessive wearing to extend its lifespan.

  5. Promptly address minor repairs like loose buttons or small tears to prevent bigger issues.

What does a suit tailor service include?

Need to visit a local suit tailor but can't fit it into your busy schedule? Airtasker can connect you with suit tailors near you who offer better accessibility—you can request them to come directly to your location to measure your sizing, fit your suit, and deliver the item once it’s ready! 


Suit tailor service includes alterations for off-the-rack items, repairs, made-to-measure suits, and bespoke tailoring. Learn more about these services:


Suit alteration

Buying ready-to-wear suits is a guaranteed win for those who appreciate budget-friendly options, especially if you snag a stylish one. However, those suits often don't fit right off the rack, whether they’re brand new or pre-owned. To get the garment to fit you like a glove, hire experts in suit alterations near you to make sure it complements your body shape and provides a polished appearance. 


Common alterations you can request include adjusting the length of sleeves and trousers, taking in or letting out the waist, and narrowing the shoulders or legs. Skilled suit tailors near you can also handle more intricate alterations, such as adjusting the jacket's chest or tapering the suit for a slimmer silhouette. 


Suit repair

It's natural for your suit to sustain some damage in its lifetime—and that's perfectly okay. Whether you’ve caught your cuff on something sharp, found a small hole in your favourite piece, or broken a zipper, suit tailors near you are equipped to make the necessary repairs. Depending on the damage, repairs might include reweaving for a smooth finish or patching up larger tears. By working with a Tasker, your suit will surely be in good, trained hands and restored to its former glory.


Do you have other clothing in need of repair? Find clothing repair experts available for hire on Airtasker.


Made-to-measure suits

Made-to-measure suits use pre-existing patterns that get tweaked to fit your unique body measurements (hence, made-to-measure). You start by picking out fabrics and styles, then your tailor takes precise sizing. They adjust the chosen pattern to ensure a better fit than off-the-rack suits. While these suits are personalised and fit great, they're usually more affordable and quicker to make than bespoke suits.


Bespoke tailoring

If you want tailored suits near you where every detail is customised just for you, from the fabric and lining to the buttons and stitching, opt for bespoke tailoring. These suits are made from scratch, using a unique pattern crafted to your body measurements and design selections. The process involves multiple fittings to ensure a flawless fit. You'll end up with a special garment that showcases your personal style and fits you well.


If you’re gearing up for an upcoming event, make sure you’re prepared well beyond your tailored armour. Find same-day dry cleaning services on Airtasker to have your new suit ready in no time. Is the organising committee in need of some assistance? You can also find event setup specialists and decorators to help you pull off a night to remember.
