Here's my story:
I had three pairs of pants to alter.
Two pairs were perfect but one was much too short. Also, the opening seemed a bit large for my liking so I had them fix the length (the tailor estimated the amount to lengthen it) and taper the legs. It cost extra to taper the legs, obviously, and I paid it in advance.
I went today to pick up the pants and the pants were still too short for my liking. I compared them with the pants I was wearing that I feel have the perfect break. He tailor seemed reluctant to work on them again, but after a short bit of talking he agreed to lengthen the pants another 1/2 inch.
TLDR: I had the tailor work on the pants three times to get the fit correctly.
Is that above and beyond what I should ask for? Or are you as picky as me? I plan to take more work to this tailor since I like the work they've done.
