*******DONT DO BUSINESS HERE******* I called the store explaining that I purchased a Loungefly backpack and the straps were cracking. Could they could replace them. The woman on the phone said yes bring it in and I brought it in and she quoted me $65 and said it would be done in 2 weeks. I went in today and picked up my bag. It looks awful. They took the top part of the bag apart to take off the old straps and sewn it back together CROOKED in 2 spots. They must have been rough because now the bag which was perfect other than the straps now have material coming off exactly where they worked on my bag. I mentioned it to the lady in the front of the store and she said "well it's not real leather. That's why that happened and it's peeling just like the straps." The straps were the only part that was CRACKING NOT PEELING... and the rest of the bag is perfect, except for where they worked on it. BUT if she thought that it would be an issue, why didn't they stop and say they couldn't do it or why didn't she say when I brought it in"This might be an issue?" They're the professionals not me. The lady said she would give me a small discount...Why bother? They already ruined my back...don't want a discount I WANT IT FIXED. They know what they did and instead of taking owner ship which I would have been less upset she tried to blame me that they messed up my backpack. I explained when I dropped the backpack off I paid $140.00 for it and it was worth $400.00. Gross business pratice read more

Tim's Shoe Repair - Vibram Sole Savers on Chisos no 1 boots - Shoe Repair Near Me - Temecula, California

I brought in my favorite pair of boots to have a new heal put on, they did a wonderful job.

My grandpa gifted me some Allen Edmond derby dress shoes from back in the day. They had a bad scuff on the left toe. Called another shop in Temecula first and was treated very poorly. Guy told me I was essentially doomed and there was nothing he could do. Called Tim's and Judy answered telling me to bring them in and she'll take a look at what's possible. All I needed was a color touch up, something to hid the white scuff on a black shoe that would look better than a sharpie, lol. She polished them right up and did her best to hid the scuff. They look amazing, you'd never be able to tell there was a scuff from afar. Thank you Judy for your work and hospitality. Would recommend this place to any body. Honest, good, authentic work. Very reasonable prices as well, only charged 15$ for a polish and paint correction. read more

Quality work for a fair price. Hours are sporadic, possibly because of Holidays. Only shop in SW Riverside County

I went in desperate due to being new to helping my high schooler shoe shine her NJROTC shoes and I was able to get great advice, tips and tricks from the wonderful lady behind the counter (I didn't catch her name). She pointed me in the direction of quality product and my daughter and I were able to make her shoes look brand new! read more

This is my first time ever bringing in shoes for repair. Yelp came in clutch once again! Parking is scarce in front, but you can find more behind the building and on the side. I brought in two pairs of wedges that I absolutely love because they're super comfy and give me some height (I'm not that much of a shortie), lol. As you can see, the sole on one came halfway up, and the other lost its keeper for the 2nd time. I really didn't want to toss these, so I was hoping I could find a place to fix them. Thank you, Tim's Shoe Repair!! Fast, friendly service, and the price wasn't astronomical. I was told they would be ready Friday after 3 pm (I took them in on Tuesday), but when I called in, only one pair was ready. They're closed on Sundays and Mondays, so I had to wait until Tuesday to pick them up. Overall, I am satisfied with their service and would recommend them. I haven't worn either pair since they've been repaired, but I'm hoping they'll hold up when I do. I'll update my review if they don't. These shoes have tons of life left in them! Thank you guys at Tim's, and I hope I won't have to visit again anytime soon, lol! read more

My son's boots were brought back to life! And in a reasonably timed fashion. Will be a repeat customer

I took in my Purses April 7. She didn't get to them and they weren't ready till May 9,2025. I didn't bug the lady I let her do her thing. I finally called her on March 8 asked if they were ready and she said yes I went in. Only two of the bags were according to her "ready" and done when I pick them up, the handles were sticky. They still have scuffs on them. They still had loose threads and she didn't clean in between the hardware, the inside of the purses were still dirty and when I asked her why the third bag never got sent out, she says that the leather restoration company in LA never came to pick it up and then she was so upset that they didn't call her and tell her that they weren't coming However, she never called me to tell me that there would be a delay so as a customer if she knows that my purse is gonna be sent out she should've called and advised me that there would've been a delay because a vendor didn't pick it up to take it out and clean it. She was expecting me to leave the Purse for over 2 1/2 months when it should've only taken a month. When I inspected the Purse, other two Purses I pointed it out to her that there was areas that were still scuffed that was not painted they were still sticking and she totally had a hissy fitz she raised her voice just take your bags and you don't gotta pay me. granted I had already paid her $35 as a down payment and I was gonna pay the remainder of the balance when I picked them up I didn't say much because she is an older elderly lady, but the service is just horrible. The fact that I couldn't have a conversation with her and point out to her where she failed to properly clean, restore the bags is horrible Customer Service and she apparently does not like criticism. I didn't have a problem paying whatever she charged me for the cleaning and restoration , but she has a problem understanding that her job is below satisfactory and unacceptable for the price that she set to clean them. And I only am posting pictures of one Purse because at this point why put in the other two purses to showcase what she failed to do. Since she didn't refund me technically I did pay $35 for my bags to sit in her dirty store on vacation for a month. read more

Old boots are like good friends and hard to let go. Fortunately Tim's service was friendly and fast and repairs were like NEW! Thank you!

A cobbler is a rarity now a days. A good one, even more rare. But artesian level? That's Tim's. Tucked away in a non descript strip mall, Tim's is a local find that's already in hero status to me. While the big online places take a week to respond; Tim's had three pairs of shoes resoled in just under two weeks. And the quality? My redwings - look better than they did new. The Allen Edmunds? Custom, and with new life. All of this with fast, easy, and friendly service. And - honestly, for the price, I'll have three pairs of shoes that will last me much longer than how I bought them new. read more

I was ecstatic when I found this business as our old shoe repair place had closed down. I had a couple of boot pairs in need of heel caps and a leather belt needed a loop, and my husband's new belt needed extra holes or to be shortened. After that, they glued a fancy heel shoe that had separated from the okatform. This place is a living relic, family owned for decades and provides great expertise and courtesy. I'll continue to go back to them and highly recommended this business. Thanks again Tim's Shoe Repair read more

Very polite on phone and in person. Not so easy to find with Jefferson traffic. Plenty of parking in front. Hole in Belt done on the spot no charge. Highly recommend. read more

I originally found this place based on the YouTuber "The Elegant Oxford", and decided to make the drive. This is my third repair with John and Linden, and they have always provided superb customer service. I'm constantly following up, and I really like the fact that they never turn me away or give me attitude despite my multiple calls a week. They preferred to delay my shoes to ensure that I got the best quality, and always called to make sure that I was informed about the repair every step of the way. As you can tell, these shoes were probably the worst ones I took to them and they made them look new. Beyond their skill, they have a true passion for the craft. When I asked them about the process, they did not hesitate to show me the machines and give me an idea of the progress of my shoes. When they speak about shoe repair, they speak of it as more of an art than a paycheck, and that alone gives me confidence that my shoes are in good hands. They have earned a lifelong customer from me. read more

Took my Thorogood work boots in for a resole and leather conditioning (have worked these boots for 18 months straight). Guys had me in and out within a few minutes and gave me a good turn-around time. Super happy with the results. Highly recommend to anyone looking to resole work boots.

Tim's is absolutely fantastic. Miracle workers. They take on tough jobs and easy jobs. Have been there many times and always had results that beat expectations. read more

Once the best and only shoe repair game in town, it is now no longer the only, simply the best. I have been taking my shoes here to Tim and his son John for years. They do a fantastic job and have a deep breadth of knowledge of leather and stitching and polishing, that beats anyone else I've ever come across. Their prices are reasonable, the items are ready when they say, and they always do a beautiful, beautiful job. I cannot recommend them highly enough! read more

Came here after a coworker recommended them for a shoe shine. They were a quick service and did a good job on my work boots. The cost was very agreeable. Nice to go and support a local business that's been serving the community for decades. read more

I brought my damaged luggage for repair and he gave me the necessary paperwork to submit my claim to princess cruise lines at no charge. The bag was unrepairable but he still provided documents. Nothing is free in this world, but this guy has been a great help in getting me through this insurance claim process. Thank you so very much. read more

Love this place and have frequented it over the years. They've been in business since 1974 and you are definitely transported back in time the moment you set foot inside. I miss old-tyme businesses like these! The attitude from the get-go is professionalism and a desire to do a good honest job on the repair. And that is exactly what I got from Linden. He was so kind and efficient and said he would do his very best with my badly-scratched boots. He actually took the time to glue down every single little teeny piece of torn leather. That is painstakingly slow work and he was so happy to try his very best to make my boots look like new. I love the customer service. I love the prices! And most of all I love the ambience and excellent repair work. Well done, Linden! read more

I brought them two pairs of shoes that I thought were in such bad shape that they almost were not worth fixing. After getting them back, both pairs looks almost brand new! They did a great job, at a very reasonable price. I plan on bringing them more shoes in the future to work their magic. read more

$40 to repair a purse strap? Overpriced for such a simple and quick fix. The strap just needed to be shortened and replaced. $40+ tax is absurd. I'd skip this place and go somewhere else. Unless overpaying for simple fixes are your jam, then by all means! read more

Very friendly & customer service oriented. I left 4 pairs of shoes that needed heel repair and polishing up & had my sister pick them up because I don't live in the area. Most of the shoes turned out pretty good except one, so l will go to someone local to finish. Otherwise well priced and 1 week turn around was good. read more

I can't believe its taken so long to do this John Farrington (the owner and cobbler) does a fantastic job!!! He's resoled several pairs of dress shoes for me and also done Triumph tips. Which are flush metal toe guards that a lot of cobblers won't even attempt or know how to do. Great guy, good prices, repeat customer here read more

Late review but they did an excellent job getting my work boots nice and shiny for an interview that I had.

Found Tim's on yelp and there were such positive reviews so I tried them. My shoes were repaired at a reasonable price and timely manner. A few weeks later I brought in a sandal that needed a repair and they did it right on the spot and didn't even charge me!! These guys are now my go to place. Thanks Tim's shoe repair! read more

Great service from a professional shoe repair owner. I highly recommend Tim's Shoe Service for all your needs.

Great and friendly. Fixed my boot on the spot. Highly recommend. Greatly priced and fast service.

I needed my Prada pump shoes stretched and re-soled and I couldn't have picked a better place to have that done. Lenin greeted me when I got there and he couldn't have been nicer. He explained how the stretching process worked and then John showed me the Italian soles and how he expertly does his work. When I left, I knew that my nice shoes were in very capable hands. Upon getting the call from John letting me know that my shoes were finished, I was excited to see the finished results and I was not disappointed. They were able to stretch them to the perfect size and the sole looked actually better than new! John's experience took my shoes to a whole new level and I couldn't be happier! Thank you so, so much! I highly recommend this place and I will be a repeat customer! read more

I went to Tim's one time back in the day to see if they could put a steel toe in a pair of my dress shoes. This store has been here for years so they must be doing something right. Well anyway they couldn't make what I wanted but that's cool because a few places couldn't do it. So the other day my mom wanted me to pick up some boots that needed to glued somewhere on the sole. I went inside and there was a customer who had Tim and company work to fix some high heels for her. The employee who was a lady told the customer that they couldn't fix the heel so the customer said ok I'll just get a refund and I'll go about my way. Anyway long story short the employee kept trying to keep the customer there so Tim and company could try and work on the heel again. Well once it was my turn I picked up the boots and dropped them off at my moms. About 3 hours later my mom called me and said wtf had to my boots? I said I did what I was suppose to do which was to pick them up and bring them to you. I guess Tim and company didn't do what they were suppose to do. It looks like my mom is another disappointed customer. read more

If I could give this business 0 stars I would. I dropped off my daughter Doc Martin's for a zipper repair. I was asked to pay for the repair before the repair was complete. I arrived to pick up my shoe, the zipper was repaired the stitching did not match and was messy. There was also a large cut in the leather (no that was not there when I dropped off the shoe). They were friendly but they're workmanship needs improvement. There are lots of shoe repair facilities n the area - save your shoes and go somewhere else. read more

Great job on my heals! Practically made them look new again. Back of my black leather heals we're all scuffed up. Could hardly tell when I picked them up. Saved me from buying a new pair! read more

Brought in a pair of cowboy boots to get the heel repaired. They were fast and took great care to do it right. I've had them back for a few months now as I wanted to see how the repair held up and so far I have no complaints. Price wasn't too bad either. Not entirely sure what the average market is for this kind of job but considering a new pair of size 16 cowboy boots are over $300 I'd say that a $50 repair is much more tolerable. Highly recommended. read more
