leather repair Wellington: a leather sofa in a Wellington living room

leather repair Wellington Leather That Works For A Living

In an equestrian town leather is equipment before it is furniture. The same house holds tack that is used hard and seating that is not.

Why it fails here

What Wellington Does

Every leather repair Wellington visit starts with the same question: what in this room reached the hide first.

Salt again on leather in Wellington

SweatSalt again

It reaches furniture on clothes, not on the air.

Fine grit abrades a finish wherever it settles.

What is stored there ages unlike anything in the house.

Four Places That Go First

Wear is never even on a leather piece. These four spots fail before the rest of it does, and a photograph of them tells us most of what a quote needs.

Where hands land wear on leather

ArmsWhere hands land

Every sit starts and ends on an arm.

The edge you slide over wear on leather

The front roll loses colour before the cushion face.

Hair and oil wear on leather

A dark halo that cleans off, until it does not.

The first to split wear on leather

Stitched edges take the strain the panel does not.

How the work runs

Clean, Fill, Colour, Seal

Four steps, in that order, at your address.

01

Clean

Oils and salt off, so nothing seals underneath.

02

Fill

Only as deep as the damage goes.

03

Colour

Mixed against the piece, in its own light.

04

Seal

Sheen matched across the whole panel.

Asked before every estimate

Common Questions

Can you treat furniture in a tack room?

Yes, and we will say plainly how long it will last in there.

Does riding gear damage the sofa?

Indirectly. What comes off the clothes is what reaches the seat.

Is the visit free?

Yes, with a written price before anything is booked.

Do you work on site?

Almost always. The piece stays where it is and the kit comes to you.

How long does it take?

Most single-panel work is one visit. We say which it is from the photographs.

Is repair cheaper than new?

Usually by a wide margin. The bands are on the cost page.
