The Hem Over Heels Difference
We Do It Right
We never cut corners or settle for quick fixes. Every repair and alteration is completed the proper way—or we won't do it at all.
We Look Beyond the Obvious
Every item receives a complete assessment. We identify current problems, explain what caused them, and point out issues that may need attention before they become costly.
We Educate, Not Just Repair
We take the time to explain the "why" behind our recommendations, helping you make informed decisions instead of simply selling another repair.
We Earn Your Trust
We believe trust is earned through honesty, consistency, and results. Every customer interaction is another opportunity to prove why our recommendations can be trusted.
Honest Recommendations
Sometimes the best advice is not to spend money. If repairing an item isn't the right investment, we'll tell you honestly before any work begins.
We Treat Every Item With Respect
Whether it's a favorite pair of shoes, a wedding gown, or an everyday jacket, every item is handled with the same care and attention to detail.

CREATIVE
SOLUTIONS
“They gave me a creative solution
that nobody else offered!
This is my new go to for shoe work!”
- Google Review
After visiting a few other places to have some work done on my boots, I was feeling defeated.
I made one last attempt, and went over to Hem over Heals, thinking I was going to hear the same solution (or lack of) and high prices that would make it infeasible to do.
Boy was I surprised! Josh and his crew were warm and friendly, professional and courteous, but also gave me a creative solution that nobody else offered!
This is my new go to for shoe work!

SAVING
WHAT MATTERS
“I thought I lost all my purses and shoes from smoke damage.
They removed the smoke odor and cleaned both my purses and shoes.
I couldn’t have asked for a more perfect job.”
- Google Review
I had a terrible fire and thought I lost all my purses and shoes from smoke damage . . ( I had quite a few designer purses).
I took everything to HEM OVER HEELS and they removed the smoke odor and cleaned both my purses and shoes.
I couldn’t have asked for a more perfect job. They saved my life. ❤️
