Frank Shoe Repair

First and foremost, I was overcharged (75 $) and the initial work on the re-​sole had indent ions to be taken out. He ground those but after closer inspection, my right heal was about .25 inches wider. When I took them back, he pointed at his «I don’t do miracles» sign. I informed him that this is a minor correction since he is not sanding the welt. He then proceeded to sweeping so I informed him that I would take them and the shoes I have in my bag somewhere else.
3 months later and the sole is coming apart.
I went to Alfa’s shoe repair down the road. (Critique pending)

If possible I’d give zero stars. Had a heel tip replaced, completely deformed the heel of the shoe, while lecturing me. Then charged 15 dollars. Now I have a pair of shoes with new heel tips that can’t be worn because he jackhammered the new tips on there and deformed the shoe. Never go here. Ever.

Quick and affordable! I’m sitting in the shop while my shoes are being prepared as I type. It has been about 10 minutes and the guy is almost done. Granite I only needed the heels repaired on two pair of work shoes, you cant beat not having to come back. It’s $ 15 for a pair. Welp shoes are done gotta go!

The same pair of shoes where $ 32 to resole the first time (nail came through shoe though we gave him the benifit of the doubt) then he asked for $ 70 the second time! For the same shoes! Won’t be going here ever again, he rips people off. We were trying to patronize his shop to support small local businesses I guess the jokes on us.
I now realize that the price he charges you is based on what you look like and what you *look* like you can pay.

Good service. They charged me $ 29 to put new heels on my boots and to place rubber tips on the toe of each boot. I am horrible on shoes and $ 29 is better than buying new boots. I already have another pair to take in.

I’ve gotten 3 different items repaired here. First was a purse strap, which I though was repaired well, but now it’s back to hanging by a string. Then I took some boots in to get new soles, which he did an excellent job on. Based on the prior 2 experiences, I would have given 3 stars, but after today it goes down to 2.
I took my white satin wedding shoes there to be dyed so that I could use them as dressy black shoes. They are a mess! :-(Messy dye job– black dye is splashed all over the bottoms as well as inside the shoe. I know no one is going to see this when I’m wearing them, but it still bothers me. But the worst part is is that when I was running my hand over them, some of the dye came off on my hand! I went back and told him this, and he said that it’s normal because of the fabric. He said that if it’s raining, the dye is going to all wash off! I had never had shoes dyed before, so I had no idea. I really wish he would have warned me before I paid the $ 25! I don’t know if he just uses cheap dye, or if all dye would be like that, but he could have said something when I dropped them off. Now the shoes I wore for my wedding are ruined. :-(
Needless to say, I will not be returning here.

I decided to try this place out to get my favorite heels fixed. Essentially, the rubber sole at the end of the stilletto heal had worn down to the metal. Overall, I think the guy did a pretty good job. The pricing was definitely reasonable, a lot less expensive than other places.
