I've had this done to a pair of suit pants by a not particularly notable dry cleaner and they did a great job. It was expensive though. I think it's not so much that it's unheard of here as it is that very few people in the US have clothes they care about preserving enough to justify the cost. I think it cost me about $60 to have my pants rewoven and I could have gone to Macy's and gotten a new pair for that money. I could probably have gotten 2 or more at H&M or Uniqlo. Unless the pieces have sentimental value or you have a really elevated fashion sense it won't be worth it.
