What our customers say
Frequently asked questions about shoe repairs
What shoes can you repair?
Even if they look beyond repair, we can repair almost all types of men’s and women’s footwear. This includes everything from smart leather shoes to designer high heels, so simply bring your shoes to a Timpson shop to ask about the repair services we can provide.
Most shoe repairs are done by our experienced in-store cobblers, but more complicated issues will be sent to our specialist cobblers at the Shoe Repair Excellence Centre. No job is too big or too small.
Is it worth getting my shoes repaired?
Yes, of course! Nobody wants to say goodbye to their comfy old friends, and it’s often much cheaper to repair an existing pair than buy another brand-new pair. Getting shoes repaired will extend the life of your footwear and ultimately save you money.
Do your shoe repairs come with a guarantee?
Yes, we take great pride in what we do, so all shoe repairs come with the Timpson satisfaction guarantee. If you are not happy with your repair, please contact us so that we can offer you support.
Can shoes be resoled?
Yes, shoes can be resoled either with full soles or half soles and can be replaced several times providing the upper is in good condition. Half soles are ideal for heels, while full soles are recommended for flat shoes. Many customers choose to replace their soles with Vibram soles which provide superb traction and long-life wear. You will know when shoes need resoling when soles start to soften and signs of a hole appear.
Do I need an in-store appointment for shoe repairs?
No, all Timpson stores offer walk-ins for shoe repairs, so there’s no need to book an appointment in advance.
How much do shoe repairs cost?
The cost of your shoe repair depends on the service required, and the extent of the damage. Every shoe is different, so our skilled cobblers will need to inspect your shoes before giving you an exact price for the repair. If you’d like an estimated price, then we recommend calling your local Timpson shop and asking how much they typically charge for similar repairs.
What parts of a shoe can be repaired?
Our experienced cobblers can repair almost any part of a shoe, including replacing worn-out soles, repairing damaged heels, replacing broken zips or simply stretching shoes so that they fit more comfortably. Simply bring your shoes to a local Timpson shop to see if they can be repaired!
