I recently took two pairs of shoes in for polishing and to have heel taps added, and I was quoted a…read moreprice of $65. This feels quite high, especially considering that I've never paid more than $25 for a shoe shine, even at airports where the service is typically manual. It's surprising for a locally-owned business to have such elevated prices, which makes me think I might have to drive to downtown Harrisburg for a more reasonable option. The showing was good. This is why I'm leaving three stars.

Mary did an unbelievable job restoring two antique arm chairs that I inherited when my grandmother…read morepassed away. The frame and woodwork on these chairs was in very good condition, but the upholstery was a tapestry look that was worn and had tears. I wanted these chairs to be renewed but without destroying their late 1800s character. I opted for a green velvet. I was confident that Mary would take good care of these chairs when she saw them and got excited about the restoration. These chairs turned out beautiful - Mary restored the springs, batting and straps to preserve the firm but comfortable seating. The velvet and piping work are beautiful. This was our first engagement with Mary and we could not be more pleased. We have other pieces that we will be bringing to Mary for restoration.

I brought them in to have them protected at the toe, and he used a 1950 gold claw and hammered it into the bottom of my brand new shoes. He completely damaged my shoes and even ripped the leather. I was mortified and brought to tears! When I attempted to discuss my dismay, he took no responsibility. I contacted CL and they recommended a high end shoe repair shop. I drove 2 hours to Baltimore, and my shoes were restored. They could not believe how poorly my new Christian Louboutins were done. See photos of poor job posted on google.

I was sure they were a lost cause, but Ben proved me wrong! My boyfriend takes multiple pairs of boots there to get spruced up and re-soled every year.
