Restore Good Furniture Instead of Replacing It

What We Do

Furniture Reupholstery

Furniture Repair & Modification

Leather Restoration

We repair worn or damaged leather, restore colour and apply a new protective finish.
If needed, we also repair foam, webbing, springs, frames and mechanisms.
We fully reupholster furniture in natural leather, eco leather or furniture fabric.
The old covering is removed and the furniture is checked and repaired before the new material is fitted.
We can repair or alter the furniture itself, not just the upholstery.
Where the construction allows, this can include changes to seating, armrests, headrests, cushioning and finishing details.

We Repair What Is Underneath Too

Keep Good Furniture
Furniture Repair

Sagging seats
Worn foam and fillings
Broken frames
Springs and webbing
Manual and electric recliner mechanisms

Keep What Matters

Preserve furniture with history, character or sentimental value.

Improve What You Have

Repair the frame, renew the comfort and update the finish instead of replacing the whole piece.

Restoration can cost far less than replacing furniture of comparable quality.

OUR WORK

Corner Recliner Sofa & Armchair Restoration

Chesterfield Sofa & Armchair Restoration

Full Leather Furniture Set Restoration

Final cost: €1,350
Final cost: €960
We carried out a full restoration of the corner recliner sofa and armchair.

The work included repairing a broken recliner mechanism, restoring damaged leather, repairing the foam and spring unit, tightening the support straps and adding new filling to the back cushions.

The furniture was thoroughly cleaned and, at the customer’s request, changed to a darker colour and finished with a protective coating.
Full restoration of a three-seater Chesterfield sofa and matching armchair.

We cleaned the furniture, replaced worn buttons and damaged leather sections, restored the seat filling, tightened the support straps and replaced the lower bases.

The colour was changed from red to green with a dark shaded finish.
We carried out a full restoration of this leather sofa set.

The work included repairing and tightening the support straps, restoring damaged foam in the seats, backs and armrests, and repairing worn leather areas.

The furniture was thoroughly cleaned, the lining and lower bases were restored, and the original colour was renewed with a protective finish.
A full colour change usually increases the restoration cost by around 20–30%.
Final cost: €1,500
Chesterfield restoration is detailed work, especially when changing or matching the traditional shaded finish.

Full Sectional Sofa Reupholstery

We carried out a full reupholstery of this large sectional sofa.

The old dark upholstery was removed and the complete sofa was recovered in a new light beige fabric, including the seats, backs, headrests and outer sections.

The new upholstery gives the sofa a much lighter, cleaner look while keeping the original design and layout.
Final cost: €1,950
The result is a fully renewed sectional sofa with a completely different appearance.
REUPHOLSTERY

Corner Sofa Reupholstery

Final cost: €1,900
The worn light fabric was replaced with a dark charcoal fabric with a subtle sheen, chosen by the customer from a new collection.
The deeper colour gave the corner sofa a different look and complemented the customer’s light grey walls.

The existing foam and wadding were in excellent condition, so both were retained.
The work involved a full fabric reupholstery, refreshing the exterior while keeping the original padding and comfort.
REUPHOLSTERY

Two-Sofa Reupholstery

Final cost: €1600
Two completely different sofas were fully reupholstered in the same new fabric, bringing them together as a matching set while keeping the original shape of each piece.

The worn spring units in the seats were replaced with new foam for firmer, more durable support.

We also repaired the frames, replaced broken legs and fixed other damaged components.

FAQ

Questions Before You Start

A few useful things to know before sending us photos or bringing furniture to the workshop.

Can you tell from photos if my furniture is worth restoring?
In many cases, yes. Send us a few clear photos, approximate dimensions and a short description of the problem. We can usually advise what is worth repairing and which option makes the most sense.
Can you change the furniture, not just reupholster it?
Yes, where the construction allows. We can alter cushioning, seating layout, armrests, headrests and selected finishing details as part of the work.
Do you repair what is underneath the upholstery?
Yes. We can repair or replace foam, webbing, springs, frames and many recliner mechanisms before the upholstery or restored finish is completed.
Can I see and feel the materials before choosing?
Yes. We have physical catalogues of leather and furniture fabrics at our Athboy workshop, so you can compare colours, textures and finishes in person. Please call before visiting.
Do you collect and return the furniture?
Yes. We can arrange collection and return, or you can bring the furniture to our workshop yourself. We work across Dublin, Leinster and, where practical, throughout Ireland.

We are delighted and couldn’t recommend these lads enough.
Very reasonable price, collected and delivered the couch and very friendly and easy to deal with.

Our couch was 10+ years old and it’s brand new now.”
