What words are used in Taiwan for a place or person that mends clothing? On my last trip to Mainland China I saw a lady in a corner "mini shop" mending clothes with a sewing machine.

She mended my jeans for about $5. I don't think she had any kind of sign.

This trip I'm in Taiwan and again would like to get my jeans mended. But I'm not sure what to Google or ask for at the hostel.

Even in English I'm not sure what words I'd use. "Tailor" and "seamstress" both seem a bit wrong.

What Chinese words are used for a shop, stall, service, or person who does sewing, patching, darning, mending, etc?
We don't use 補 or 縫補 in Taiwan. We use 修改衣服 instead.

When you like to get the clothes mended, you should find the 修改衣服/換拉鏈 (Modify clothes/Change zippers) signs as follows.





We still call the person who does these works 老闆.
