Turnaround
Turnaround depends on fabric, construction, and current workload. If you’ve left it to the last minute, ask about express (priority) service — we can sometimes prioritise urgent work depending on what the garment needs and our current capacity. A 25% priority uplift applies, and we’ll confirm timing and the total price before any work begins.
