Be careful of the big companies - we went to get a replacement zip on my daughters coat - we were quoted £30 by the dry cleaners in M'hall.

I know it's not in town, but Stitch it on Holme Lane (hillsborough) are reasonably priced and always do a good, neat job.

If you're still stuck, think Atkinsons on the Moor do clothing repairs (at the back of the shop, on the ground floor).

Went to Stitch It this morning, £8 to get my zip fixed! Made up! Will take a week though, she did have quite a few things to alter. So if you get your waterproof down there with enough time you'll be sorted :)

Glad you got sorted. She's always busy as she's good and reasonably priced. It's always the first place I try when I need something altering or repairing. Been caught out by the Thursday closing though!
