Every repair is unique, so pricing varies depending on the complexity of the job and the time it takes. To keep things fair and transparent, I time each repair individually - you’re only charged for the actual work involved and the skill it requires.
If you’d like an idea before sending your item, you can email photos to gay@livedinrepairs.co.uk and I’ll provide a rough quote. You can also view my guideline price list above.

I love involving customers in the repair journey. Once I receive and assess the garment, I’ll decide on the best repair approach to restore its life and character. If any additional fabrics are needed, I’ll send over photos of carefully chosen fabric samples that complement the piece. You get to select the option that feels just right for your garment.

Due to the nature of my business I do not repair non-clothing items. This includes household textile items, bag & shoes. I also do not offer alterations on brand new garments. If you have an alteration or rework idea in mind please contact me before hand to discuss you requirements
