DAMAC Hills is a community with its own rhythm and its own reasons for needing something sorted quickly. A golf event this afternoon. A school occasion tomorrow morning. A family dinner tonight and the dress hem is sitting wrong. A suit that arrived yesterday and needs adjusting before the week starts.
Our DAMAC Hills 1 Mall location means you do not have to drive into the city to solve these problems. Same day alteration is available here, in your own community, for most standard garments brought in before noon.
Drop your garment off, leave it with our tailor, come back later and collect it done. No long trip, no half a day lost. Just a garment that fits.
Every same day alteration at our DAMAC Hills 1 location runs under Dr. Alter’s ISO 9001:2015 certified quality management system. We are Dubai’s first certified tailor and same day here means exactly the same quality standard as any other turnaround. Certificate No: 060705AO12DR.
Local Context
The DAMAC Hills Same Day Experience
Before Dr. Alter opened in DAMAC Hills, residents who needed quality same day alteration had to drive to Business Bay or elsewhere — a significant commitment in the middle of a busy day. Now it is five minutes away for most of the community.
The requests we see here are as varied as the community itself. School uniform trousers that need hemming before the next morning. Smart chinos for a golf event that afternoon. A dress for a community dinner that evening. A kandura that needs length adjustment before Eid. A suit jacket that needs a sleeve shortened before a business trip.
We also serve Mudon, Remraam, Arabian Ranches, Dubai Sports City and Motor City residents who find DAMAC Hills 1 Mall the most practical location in the area.

What People Say
Super helpful - highly recommended.
I brought my trousers with a very tiny hole, asking them to fix it. Instead, they made the hole even bigger, completely ruined the trousers beyond repair, and then refused any compensation. They told me it was not their fault, that I can do whatever I want with the damaged trousers, and even suggested I take them to another tailoring atelier. This attitude is outrageous — zero professionalism, zero accountability. Avoid this place at all costs!
