My neighbor across the street does alterations out of his house. I've had him repair a couple of torn shirts and he was very reasonably priced. I could get you his phone number but he only speaks Thai.

I recommend you postpone until the late fall. Right now everything is closed and only about 1% of the population is vaccinated. Vaccinations should be ramping up this summer. Maybe by late fall, early winter (high season) Thailand will be coming out of hibernation.
