Pricing & How It Works
Leather repair is priced by the job, because the cost is driven by the damage rather than by the piece of furniture. Here is how that works, and what affects it.
The basics
How pricing works
We do not publish a fixed price list, and it is worth explaining why rather than leaving you to guess. The cost of a leather repair is driven almost entirely by how much damage there is and how deep it goes — not by the size or the value of the furniture. A single scuffed arm on a large sofa can be a modest job; fine cracking across every seat of a small one is not.
So the sequence is: you send photographs, we assess what is actually wrong, and we quote for that specific job. The quotation is free, it comes with an honest view of the result to expect, and there is no obligation attached to it.
The calculator further down gives you a rough bracket in the meantime, so you are not going in with no idea at all.
Variables
What affects the cost
Six things account for most of the difference between one quotation and another.
Type of item
A dining chair, a three-seater sofa and a car seat are different jobs with different amounts of surface area and access involved.
Type of damage
Colour work on sound leather is a different proposition to rebuilding a cracked panel or filling a burn. Several repairs on one piece are usually quoted together.
Size of the affected area
This is the single biggest variable. A scuff on one arm and colour loss across a whole suite are the same repair at very different scales.
Number of seats
More seats means more surface to prepare, colour and seal — and on seat repairs, more springs or cushions to deal with.
Condition of the leather
Leather that has dried out and hardened needs feeding and reconditioning before any repair, which adds to the work.
Complexity of the repair
Buttoning, piping, tight seams and awkward access all take longer than a flat panel. So does matching an unusual or heavily faded colour.

Calculator results are an estimated guide only. A final quotation depends on the actual damage, the type and condition of the leather, and may require photos or further assessment.
For an accurate price
Send photos for an accurate quote
A calculator cannot see how far a crack has gone or how much of a seat has lost its colour. Photographs can, and they cost nothing to send.

How it works
From photo to finished repair, in four steps
The quickest way to find out where you stand is to send us pictures. Most quotes are worked out from photographs without a visit.
Step 1: Tell us about the damage
Fill in the enquiry form with what has gone wrong — cracked leather, faded colour, a seat that has dropped. A sentence or two is plenty to start with.
Step 2: Upload photos
Add clear photographs of the damage. Daylight, a close-up of the worst area and one shot of the whole piece is the combination that lets us quote accurately.
Step 3: Receive your free quote
We review the photographs and come back to you with a quotation, an honest view of what result to expect, and realistic timing. There is no obligation.
Step 4: Renew your leather
If you go ahead, the repair is carried out — in your home wherever the job allows — and your furniture goes back to being something you are happy to sit on.
Questions
Pricing questions
Why do you not publish a fixed price list?
Because the honest answer to almost every pricing question is that it depends on the damage. Two sofas of the same size can need very different amounts of work. A fixed price would either overcharge the simple jobs or undercharge the difficult ones.
How accurate is the calculator?
It is a guide, not a quotation. It works from the item, the repair type and the number of seats, but it cannot see how large or how deep the damage is — which is what actually drives the cost. Treat it as a rough bracket.
Is the quotation free?
Yes. Send photographs with your enquiry and we will come back to you with a price and an honest view of the result to expect. There is no charge and no obligation.
Do you charge to come out and look?
We quote from photographs wherever possible, which avoids the need for a visit at all. If a job genuinely cannot be assessed from pictures, we will tell you before arranging anything.
When do I pay?
Payment terms are confirmed with your quotation, before any work is booked in. You will know the price and the terms before committing to anything.
