I could be wrong.. but I think I may be the only person in the Essex area that actually sews leather panels in by hand. If the leather is too badly damaged or contaminated to be restored using repair products, then the only recourse is to replace the part.
This presents many potential obstacles such as finding someone to take the furniture away in order to strip down the entire piece, unpick the panel, source a matching leather (which may only be available in a whole hide), which is unlikely to match perfectly anyway.. and then cut, machine and re fit before delivering.
You can imagine that this wouldn’t come cheap, even if you could find someone to undertake the work.
My method of pigmenting and sewing in the new leather is done onsite in just two or three hours and can save an otherwise perfectly good suite from having to be replaced.

A quick look at what’s involved and what you can expect from a leather clean or restore.. or both!

It’s not unusual for people to get in touch after they’ve had a go at repairing something themselves.. it’s usually not too late 😊.

The damage you can see in the left half of the photo is a result of a dog being left unattended for a few minutes. It’s something I’m asked to attend to quite frequently and in most cases I can make a significant and permanent improvement.
The right hand side picture shows the result of me having re covered the damaged panel with new leather.
Normally the furniture would need to be uplifted to a workshop, the leather stripped off to have the panel replaced and then reupholstered and delivered.
Because I am a mobile service, I specialise in doing these jobs onsite in one visit. That means you don’t have to go days or even weeks without your favourite sofa or chair, but perhaps more importantly, it will cost you less money.

If you have any kind of damage or wear to your leather, or issues with the cushion fillings, seams, springs or framework on leather or fabric furniture.. take a few photos of the furniture and send them over to me by WhatsApp to 07889 368706 or email to:
[email protected]
along with a description of the work required and details of your location and I will reply (usually within 24 hours) with a price and further information.

UPHOLSTERY REPAIRS IN YOUR HOME
At Mobile Upholstery, I specialise in furniture repair, leather cleaning and general ‘face lift’ procedures such as cushion refilling and firming, all done with the minimum of fuss in your home. The work is mess free and rarely takes more than a couple of hours.

Having a suite recovered is often more expensive than buying new, but giving your current furniture a ‘face lift’ is an ideal and inexpensive way of getting many years more use out of a loved item.

I’m not a car seat specialist, but I can sew up seams! I was able to permanently and neatly repair this in the customers driveway, so he didn’t have to take it to an auto trim company who would’ve had to take out the seat, strip off the cover, unpick the panel and then re sew the seam using a machine.
I OFFER CONVENIENT AND AFFORDABLE SOLUTIONS FOR DAMAGED OR FAULTY SOFT FURNISHINGS IN ESSEX.
