Tear repair, cracking and colour restoration to leather corner sofa

Project 1:

Sunroom Corner Sofa Restoration

Location: Pittenweem, Fife
Service: Leather Sofa Repair & Restoration

The Challenge

This large corner leather sofa was a much-loved centrepiece in the customer’s sunroom. Over the years, it had suffered from two major issues:

Sun damage – constant exposure to sunlight caused fading, dryness, and cracking across the leather.
Pet damage – the family dog had left scratches and wear on several seating areas.

The result was a sofa that looked tired, worn, and far from its best. The customer considered replacement but wanted to explore restoration first.

The Solution

We carried out a full professional leather restoration, carefully tailored to the sofa’s condition:

Deep Cleaning – all seat and arm surfaces were cleaned to remove ingrained dirt, oils, and residue.
Leather Repairs – cracks, scratches, and worn patches were repaired to restore the surface.
Colour Restoration – we matched the sofa’s original shade(s) and applied a fresh, two tone colour finish across the entire piece.
Protective Coating – a durable topcoat was applied to protect against future wear, fading, and UV damage.

The Results

The transformation speaks for itself:

The leather regained its rich, two tone colour.
Damaged areas were smoothed and repaired, making scratches, cracks and that arm tear virtually disappear.
The sofa now looks and feels fresh, with a finish designed to last.

The customer was delighted to see their sofa brought back to life — proof that restoring quality leather furniture is often a better choice than replacing it.
