SINCE opening Crediton Cobbler, three years ago, Mark and Di Perkin have expanded their services.

The cobblers initially offered shoe repairs as well as stitching and patching on leather items including handbags and replacement boot zips, but they now also offer a key cutting service.

A recent addition is key cutting for cars and motorbikes for a range of different makes. The keys can be cut on the premises, while you wait and for many makes can be up to 50 per cent cheaper than the main dealers, even keys with transponders for some makes can be cut.

Mark now has a new engraving machine and can provide an engraving service on the premises for items such as trophies, tankards, lighters, hip flasks and glass tankards.

The cobblers also sell a range of items including shoe polish, laces, leather handbags, a range of coloured fun keys, key fobs, a selection of black and brown leather belts and a selection of padlocks.

A selection of purses and wallets are also available and make ideal gifts.

Call in at Crediton Cobbler at 107 High Street, Crediton to see what’s available.

Mark and Di’s motto is “If shoes are worth wearing, they are worth repairing”.

The shop is open from 8.30am to 5.30pm weekdays and 9am to 2pm on Saturdays.
