Then SNOWMAGEDON happened! Mind you... I took my repair to this particular shop from a personal friends' review.... So today ( Feb 2,2026) I drove down to pick up my shoes..... The owner looked at me with confusion as I handed him my repair ticket. I described my shoes to a T...5 inch stilettos with a wide crisscross strap. Still confused face. I literally watched this man walk over to a pile of shoes and rummage through pairs and pairs of shoes to eventually find mine on the bottom of the pile.... Dusty and half stripped . So I knew work had started on them bc I did not drop them off in the condition I took them back in. I inquired as to why they were not finished and he said " it's been busy, then snow". I also asked why he did not tell me he had not finished them when I called ( and I gave him the tix number on the 10th of January). He shrugged his shoulders. At this point.... ZERO APOLOGY! ZERO offer to complete the repair at a 25% discount.... I did not ask him for one. He said... and I quote..." you said take your time".... In my mind and most other customers minds.... Take your time means in a reasonable time..... HE gave me the date of completion for Dec 27.... Again.... Shoulder shrugs! How does someone run a business like this? Lack of respect for my shoes ( found on the floor) lack of honoring the delivery date with ZERO APOLOGIES. Then have the audacity to place blame on THE CUSTOMER for not having the repair FINISHED because I stated take your time! SOMEONE MAKE THIS MAKE SENSE TO ME!!!! I called my friend who highly recommended MASTER REPAIR SHOP in Rockville Maryland to me and let him know how my repair project was treated. He was beyond shocked. Many apologies from my friend but not ONE from the OWNER! Please avoid this shit hole ( physically a nasty mess... where my shoes were found on the floor) AT ALL COSTS!!! The owner is CLUELESS on how to provide great customer service. It was HEINOUS AND DEPLORABLE AT BEST! With the damage done to my shoes ( because he started my project) the price to fix them at another shop up the road was 50 dollars MORE... at $150.00! That's double the cost of the shoes when I bought them. When the owner said he would fix them in the next MONTH ( I have a late Winter wedding to attend and wanted to wear the shoes in question) I nearly lost my mind! I stared at him with such disappointment .... He then said... and I quote..." You didn't pay YET, so here" and held out my shoes to take. I took them and as I left I told him what I thought of his shitty customer service in Italian, Spanish and English! I'm sure he understood ONE of the three languages I speak! Master Repair Shop in Rockville, Md is a horrible place to have your shoes repaired. The customer service is beyond repair itself and I will NEVER EVER allow this shop to work on any of my shoes if I'm in need of repairs. It should NOT TAKE over 7 weeks to repair something this simple as my repair needs..... in his words! A complete disaster and I give Master Repair Shop in Rockville, Md a negative 10.... -10 !!!! Zero stars!!!! Had to put one star rating other wise it would not allow me to post! But still.... ZERO CUSTOMER SERVICE!!! A total shit hole! Kathryn L

This time I promised myself that I would do it ahead of my vacation, but again I procrastinated until the last minute. I found this repair shop and decided to call on Friday and see if my shoes were repairable in the time I needed. I'm assuming I spoke to Nick, and he said he can have the shoes to me by the following Friday (a week later) I needed them before Thursday as my trip was then. He said he can get them to me anytime after 2pm on Tuesday. I rushed over on Friday to drop my shoes off. Something to note, you have to pay before the repair which quite frankly I wasn't a fan of but I had no other option. I headed over on Wednesday and my shoes looked brand new! These shoes are so comfy and I would quite frankly cry if I had to toss them. The heel got stuck in the road on my trip and I was able to yank the heel out without ruining the job Nick had done! Overall great experience that I even considered bringing my other shoes to his shop as well!

That stop is run by Noah who is very nice and super knowledgeable about his craft and has been in the service for 10 plus years. I couldn't go to him this time because of circumstances so I decided to try this cobbler in Westfield Montgomery Mall that I will be writing about. Below is my experience and review and it is VERY lengthy: I brought in shoes that I bought from the thrift store to be repaired. The soles of the derby's were coming apart so I just needed them to be glued back to the midsole. Somewhat easy fix. I go to this cobbler on a Friday and inquire about the service. The man who runs the shop tells me it is about $65 to repair, which I would say is reasonable. I ask him how long it would take him to fix and he tells me, "about a week." The man gives me a ticket and says to bring it back when I pick them up and that I would get "a text message" from him when the shoes are finished, as he asks for your phone number. This is where the problem arises. A week passes by and I even wait an extra day, so it is now Saturday of the next week. I receive no text so I decide to call the shop and inquire about the shoes. The man picks up and I ask about the shoes and I give him the ticket number, he goes to check. He comes back to the phone and says, "I'm still working on your shoes" and has the AUDACITY to say "don't call the shop unless you get a text." What? There is no point in having a phone if you're just going to answer and say that when people are inquiring about their stuff. There are previous reviews where the same situation is mentioned. So I ask him about how long until they are ready, he says "probably Monday and Tuesday." So a service that was first said to only take a week now needs another 4 days, which is I think in my opinion, unprofessional. I wait the extra couple days, and it is now Thursday, an extra TWO DAYS later after he said he would be finished and I STILL have no text message. I decide to call the shop AGAIN and this time he surprisingly says "yes it is ready, I just need to clean them up." At this point I rush over to the shop to pick up the shoes because I no longer want to deal with this shop. When I go to pick them up, I see one of my shoes in his hand and I tell him that those are mine, he says "oh I am just finishing up, sorry I was busy this morning" that's not really an excuse when the service was literally extended by 6 days. The shoes themselves are okay but like another prior review had said, the hassle alone is not worth the service. Would not recommend.

Bar none, the repairs were the best I have ever had done anywhere! The quality was outstanding! Their attention to detail is not something I see anymore. On all three repairs they found extra items that needed TLC and did them without extra charges. The staff is always friendly too. I would rate them 4 & 1/2 stars on their workmanship if I could. I would give Casmera 5 stars if they were not so in demand and took longer than expected for all the jobs. That is a great problem to have. Also, striving toward better communication with their customers about the repairs would definitely give them five stars. Don't go anywhere else. Go to Casmera. They were out of the way for me, but so worth it!
