We Visit & Assess
Our technician visits on-site, checks the frame and spring condition, and explains the best repair options. Most issues are diagnosed in 15-30 minutes.

Repairs are completed on-site where possible using professional tools and materials. You can use your restored, stable sofa that evening.
Common Frame Issues We Fix
From broken springs to split timber, we restore the support structure rather than masking the symptom.
Broken or snapped springs
Symptoms include sagging seats, springs poking through, visible damage or loss of support. We replace individual springs or full units, re-tension the support and test seat firmness.
Loose or broken frame joints
Symptoms include wobbling, separated joints, visible gaps or instability. We reinforce with wood glue, brackets or splines, then clamp and secure until stable.
Cracked hardwood frames
Visible cracks, splitting wood and structural weakness can often be repaired with glue, batten reinforcement, splines or hardwood inserts.
Sagging webbing
Thin-feeling seats and loose webbing are repaired by removing failed webbing, installing new webbing at the correct tension and securing it to the frame.

Frame Repair Customer Reviews
Trusted by homeowners for practical, long-lasting structural furniture repairs.
“Stronger than before.”
Our sofa frame was broken and it was leaning badly. Richard reinforced the frame and now it is stronger than when we bought it. Would not hesitate to recommend.
Verified, NG10 • Checkatrade
“Fixed the wobble.”
Our 15-year-old sofa had developed a dangerous wobble. Richard tightened the joints and now it is solid as a rock. Excellent value.
Mr. S., Leicester
“No more poking springs.”
Springs were poking through the seat. Richard replaced the spring unit and now it is comfortable again. Highly recommended.

Sofa Frame Repair FAQs
Quick answers before you send photos for a quote.
Can a broken sofa frame be repaired?
Most broken wooden sofa frames can be repaired if the surrounding timber is sound enough to hold reinforcement. We assess the frame first and explain honestly if repair is not worthwhile.
Do you repair sofa springs at home?
Yes. We provide mobile sofa spring repair across Leicester and nearby areas. Broken serpentine springs, coil springs and spring units can often be replaced on-site.
How much does sofa frame repair cost?
Indicative starting prices include a £65 call-out, which applies only when we cannot assess the potential job from clear photos or an adequate description provided through our contact form, email, phone or another messaging platform.

Can you fix a wobbly sofa?
Yes. A wobble usually comes from loose joints, failed fixings, damaged legs or frame movement. We identify the cause and reinforce the structure so it feels stable again.
