I’m Ben, Repairer Extraordinaire. I joined Elgin Shoe Repair when I was just 17 years old.
I started, initially, as a part-time worker, but soon Kenny, the owner, noticed my passion for the job and offered me a full-time position. I have been working here for almost 15 years and I still love every minute of it.
I take a lot of pride in my work and I always strive to satisfy our customers and assist them in any way possible. I enjoy going the extra mile and seeing the smiles on our customers’ faces when I meticulously restore their beloved footwear with care and precision.
Even though I have years of experience, I still face new and exciting challenges every day. As a multi-service repair shop, we get all kinds of unusual and interesting requests. I keep learning new skills as I tackle different repairs, whether it’s shoes, watches, keys, or engraving. We can handle all your needs in one wee shop.
