That would depend a lot on the material i suppose, but workmanship is anything form RM200~500, althougth should average around RM250~300

I found out 1 Tailor in PJ. They charge RM160 for 1 pant and also formal shirt. I think price quite cheap so I already ordered it.

Hi, is there any cheap alteration service around bukit jalil area? I just got a job here and my shirts is not really fit (the arm area is a bit too big). I just want to alter the arm area a little. Will any tailor do a good job for this? Im sorry to be cheap but my shirts are probably 30-50rm, i don't think 30rm+ alteration is really worth.

Thanks you your input guys.

PS: It's not only in bukit jalil, I can go to other place if it's cheap (and good hopefully)

Tonight i got go to the tailor shop at PJ to alter my long sleeve t-shirt, arm area and sleeve problem also.
