Repair or replace?

When a recliner is worth fixing

A well-made recliner has a frame and leather built to last for decades. When the mechanism sticks or the arms wear through, fixing both in one visit usually costs far less than a new chair.

Worth repairing

  • A quality recliner with a solid frame
  • A stuck mechanism, broken handle or failed motor
  • Worn, cracked or faded leather in a few areas
  • You love how it sits

Better to replace

  • Bonded or faux leather that is peeling
  • A frame broken in several places
  • Inexpensive recliners where parts cost close to a new chair

Alex did an outstanding job fixing a dye transfer stain on a leather car seat. His work was beautiful (it looks brand new), his price was fair, and he was really pleasant to work with. I'd recommend him without hesitation.

Alexander did a great job fixing a small cut on our 1960 T-Bird back seat. The color and texture was better than our expectations! We finally had to tell Alex to stop as he is a true perfectionist! We also appreciated his honesty in telling us that our RV vinyl would be more practical to replace than repair. He could have repaired them, but advised us that the damage would continue do to poor quality of vinyl used by the manufacturer.

Alex did an amazing job fixing the dashboard crack on my truck! You can’t even tell it was there. Great work, very reasonable on the price and a pleasant person to deal with. I will likely have him come back to refresh my bottom front seat bolsters.

I had a vintage Chanel bag that needed a new top coat and Alexander and his staff provided amazing service, including home pick up and drop off. All throughout the process, Alexander was very responsive, and the bag came back beautiful. The price was incredibly reasonable, as well. I will definitely be a returning customer!
