“Highly recommend Alterations Plus! Fast, Friendly and Efficient Service. I took my jumpsuit in for alterations on the Tuesday and it was ready for my collection the very next day. Brilliant service and the alterations carried out were absolutely excellent!”

“I couldn’t recommend Claire and her team enough!
I needed my bridesmaid dress altering after purchasing online and they have done an amazing job. Faultless, from the booking in process to the fitting. Great job ladies, keep up the fab work and never change - its boring to be normal!”

Deborah M - January 2024
“As you can always rely on Claire and her team to do a good job, I am prepared to travel quite some distance to have alterations work carried out by Alterations Plus. Over the years, a variety of jobs have been completed, always to a high standard, even the construction of a large window blind. It is great to have someone with such a high degree of expertise working in Norwich and, not surprisingly, it is always busy when you visit the very pleasant premises in the Dixon centre. Thank you, Claire for always being so friendly and helpful and for always making a success of the variety of requests you have had to deal with!”
