Leather Repair Services We Provide
From small scratches to colour restoration and panel replacement, each repair starts with an honest assessment.
Tear & rip repair
Splits, cuts, seam failures and larger rips are supported beneath the repair, patched where needed, colour blended and grain-textured for a natural finish.
Scratch & scuff removal
Light surface scratches, cat scratches and general wear are professionally cleaned, filled, blended and protected.
Pet damage repair
Cat or dog scratches, claw holes, chewed edges and pet stains are assessed, repaired structurally and colour matched.
Colour restoration
Sun-bleached, faded or discoloured leather can be cleaned, recoloured and protected with a UV-resistant top coat.
Panel replacement
Severely damaged panels can be replaced when a local repair is not the most durable option.
Armrest & seating wear
High-contact areas, worn-through arms and seat panels can be restored or recoloured to extend the furniture life.

Leather Sofa Repair FAQs
Quick answers before you send photos for a quote.
Can leather sofa scratches be repaired?
Yes. Surface scratches, scuffs and many pet scratches can usually be cleaned, filled, colour matched and sealed so the finish blends with the surrounding leather.
Can you repair leather sofa tears at my home?
Most leather tears and seam failures can be repaired on-site. Larger damage may need panel replacement or a more detailed assessment from photos first.
How accurate is the colour match?
Sofa Tech custom mixes leather colour on-site and works to a 98%+ colour match standard. If we cannot achieve a suitable match, we will tell you honestly before proceeding.
Do you charge if the leather cannot be repaired?
The Β£65 call-out charge 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. We will discuss and agree the charge before booking a visit.
