Testimonials

Jim has managed his own successful business for as long as I have known him, his astute knowledge of the industry has allowed him to survive when many have failed. His ability to diversify and "cut the cloth" to suit the needs of his business goals is testimony of his skills. When Jim says he learnt in the school of hard knocks he maligns himself, he listens and talks to other business people and draws from their good results and learns from their mistakes as well as his own, this is a strong indicator of an astute operator such as Jim. He is always willing to share his acquired wisdom with others but without imposing himself which is another of his attributes hence his current level of public life in service to the community.

We needed a long curved seating area covered for our waiting area which needed to be custom made and a well-made as it’s the first thing patients see when they walk in the door. Jim was able to do the job in our tight time frame and it was such a great job that we now have Jim’s cards on site as patients ask “who did the job”. It’s a beautiful finish and perfect fit, I can recommend Jim’s Trim for difficult custom requirements as they do an amazing finish.

Jim has also covered a boat seat and repaired my leather car seat when I scratched it. In summary Jim’s Trim is my go to business for all my leather repairs and custom jobs. I have every confidence in the knowledge and skill they have and the quality of work is second to none. Jim and his team are lovely to deal with, always on time for appointments and very cost effective.

I have been a long term customer of Jim’s Trim and it is in this capacity I base my comments. On every occasion, I have found their service and customer interaction to be exemplary.

Jim and his staff are true craftsmen and are very capable of tackling any task with which they are confronted. Nothing is too difficult for them. They are genuine professionals in their field. They pride themselves on their workmanship as is obvious by the product outcome.

I have always found Jim’s Trim to be very price competitive and very easy to deal with.

“Old Fashioned Values for workmanship, customer service, value and trust.”

I have come back to Jims Trim for three separate orders now and I tell all of my friends I would not hesitate to return for the next project. Jim's team approached the challenge with enthusiasm and suggestions.

Jim is able to draw on his many years of experience to suggest options and advise me on the best materials available. He continued to work with me to develop exactly what I needed. Chris was assigned to the task of the vehicle interior makeover and he produced a high quality product drawing on traditional skills and pride.

I have a 1962 VW beetle that has a lengthy family history and I trust them with my precious project. Jim set out to make an interior that I would be very proud of and his team have succeeded again. It is very rare these days for a service provider to exceed your expectations. I know that I can go to Jim confident that I will leave a very satisfied customer.

Jim’s Trim was fantastic to deal with from start to finish. Jim gave me some great advice on a design and material choice that would really suit my pick up. I handed the bench seat in all brown, boring and worn out and it came back more comfortable than my lounge suite! The design really compliments my truck and I couldn’t be happier. Thanks Jim!
