Leather repairs

Regardless of make/model/year, the leather of your vehicle gets worn and brittle with age if not maintained. In addition, stitching can come apart at the seams and exposure to the elements can discolour the leather.

Luckily our skilled upholstery technicians can address all manner of leather upholstery problems, such as:

  • Split leather
  • Scuffed leather
  • Scratched leather
  • Faded leather
  • Split seams
  • Torn leather 

No matter if it’s the seat, the side bolster or the centre arm rest, we can repair or replace your leather interior, matching to the exact colour as the original, even sourcing the exact same material in some cases, and ensure your leather upholstery looks as good as new.

A recent Porsche 911 Leather Replacement

These Porsche 911 seats weren’t in bad shape considering they are 38 years old, but they had lost a bit of lustre and the drivers seat had damage in the outer bolsters. Our customer wanted to retain the original leather but tidy them up for the cars sale. So in we stepped to produce a pristine leather replacement!

If we can’t repair or refresh your vehicle upholstery, we’ll manufacture a brand new one from scratch. We’ll match the original material (if possible) and colour or we can manufacture something entirely new based on your requirements.

Seat Upholstery Replacements

Worn upholstery can age the look of your car and reduce its value if you ever want to sell it. It doesn’t need to be split or have holes, but can still make the interior of your vehicle look old. So why not get it replaced?

Our skilled upholstery technicians can replace the seat upholstery in any car, no matter the make or model. We can reupholster your vehicle with any material of your choice in any style. Want an exact replacement? No problem, we’ll source as close to the exact replacement if we can’t source the original material. Or choose a completely new look for your car upholstery. We can replace:

  • Cushion seating
  • Side panels
  • Headrests
  • Arm rests
  • Centre consoles
  • Backrests

Bespoke Trimming

Everything we trim is a one off, tailored bespoke to each and every application.

However we are now able to offer a cost effective alternative for most modern vehicles.

Working with a huge and technologically advanced business based in Malaysia we can have the trim replicated in various leather-vinyl-material options, colours and styles.

Most vehicles 1990’s to current are stored in their database.

Our tester job was the new works runaround van, full nappa leather, company logo and suede blue stitch combo. To give an idea on cost this would be £950+vat.

A Selection of recent Vehicle Upholstery Projects we have undertaken

We take on all manner of vehicle upholstery repairs and replacements. Here are just a few of our recent projects:

Porsche 911 Full Seat Retrim

As an example of the quality of our vehicle reupholstery work here’s a recently completed Porsche 911 Carrera S full retrim of front and rear seats in leather. Outsourcing the leatherworks to a company overseas, the customer was able to design his new interior to his own specifications changing the old black upholstery to a stunning tan nappa and reducing the financial impact considerably. From the date of ordering to completion in less than a month, also makes it very time efficient. As an indication of price, this full nappa leather interior supplied and fitted was £3950+vat. (Cheaper options would be available using synthetic leathers and fabric combinations).

Lamborghini Huracan Seat Upgrade

Customer had upgraded the seats in this Lamborghini Huracan to the tillet lightweight race seat. However, there was a significant compromise on comfort. After stripping the seats we could see why, only 1mm of scrim foam. So we re-built the seats and re-profiled them with new foam internals. Then retrimmed them in black suede and Lamborghini green leather in a performante style with Lamborghini logo’s embroidered in the headrests.

Seat Restoration and New Upholstery Project

Here are a pair of Renault 4 seats that were in a sorry state. We completely stripped them down and even got the frames re-powder coated (thanks to LAP Bros). The seats were then fully retrimmed.

The first images below shows the work we carried out for the owner of Porsche GT4. He wasn’t a fan of the houndstooth cloth so we changed it to some Porsche Pascha fabric, old school in the new school!
