Leather & Vinyl
Foam & Frame Repairs
Sagging cushions, collapsed foam and damaged frames can make otherwise good furniture feel uncomfortable and worn long before the upholstery needs replacing. Loss of support, uneven seating, sinking cushions, broken frames and damaged internal components are common problems that can often be professionally repaired.
Our Leather Doctors provide professional foam and furniture frame repairs throughout New Zealand, working on the internal structure of many leather and vinyl lounges, sofas, chairs and recliners. Where required, our technicians can carefully remove sections of the upholstery to access the damaged area before carrying out the appropriate internal repair and reinstating the covering.
Depending on the condition of the furniture, repairs may include foam replacement or boosting, broken frame repairs, webbing and suspension repairs, loose or damaged stitching, buttons and other internal components. Each piece is assessed individually so we can recommend a practical repair based on the cause of the problem and the condition of the furniture.
For New Zealand homes and businesses, repairing the foam, frame or internal support of an existing lounge or furniture suite can help restore comfort, support and function while extending its useful life. For quality furniture that remains in otherwise good condition, professional furniture repairs can also provide a practical alternative to premature replacement.
Furniture Repair Services Include:
- Recliner mechanism replacements (manual and electric)
- Furniture frame repairs
- Suspension and webbing repairs
- Foam replacement and foam boosting
- Component and trigger replacements
- Button and stitching repairs
With 30 years of restoration experience across New Zealand, we provide honest assessments and tailored options.
On-Site & Off-Site Repair Options
Most repairs can be completed on-site, whether in your home, office, or business.
For larger or more complex furniture, our mobile technicians can safely collect and return items from one of our dedicated off-site facilities.
Every repair, on-site or off-site, is carried out with professionalism and care to ensure your furniture is restored to its best possible condition.
If your lounge, chair, or recliner has lost its comfort or functionality, contact your local Leather Doctor for a free quote.
CUSTOMER Testimonials
Couch - Fabric
"The Leather & Fabric Doctor did an awesome job of returning the upholstery to as-new condition! The technician was in touch with me shortly after I let the store know about the marks, organising a suitable time the following week. He communicated his arrival time well prior to the appointment, and arrived at the stated time. We’re very happy with the results and will definitely be keeping The Fabric and Leather Doctor’s phone number handy for future spills and damage. Such a positive experience from a professional."
Couch - Leather
"The Leather Doctor technician replaced the leather arm of our suite well within the time frame. He then cleaned and moisturised both our suites, making them look like new. Would definitely recommend the Leather Doctors to anyone wanting an honest and reliable leather repairer and restorer."
Couch cleaning
"They did an amazing job cleaning our beautiful leather couch. Our couch is 10 years old, and after the technician had cleaned it, it looked brand-new. It had a stain on which they re-coloured, and you couldn’t tell the difference. Thank you, the Leather Doctor team. You did an amazing job, and I would thoroughly recommend you to anybody who’s looking at having their leather couch cleaned."
Car
"I can't recommend this company highly enough! My technician was an absolute magician. He repaired a scratch in my car's seat and steering wheel, and the final result is phenomenal. The repair is totally undetectable—it looks absolutely perfect. If you need top-quality work on your leather, look no further."
Camper trailer
"I am very happy with their service! The technician was punctual and happy to do the repair on a camper trailer, even though it was a bit more involved than my dodgy photo originally showed. His workmanship was faultless. I can highly recommend the Leather Doctor! Thank you."
Outdoor setting
"Amazing work from the Timber Doctor! They were extremely knowledgeable and great to deal with! Not only did they make my tired old outdoor setting look like new again, but they fixed some large chips in my bathroom tiles and a big scratch in my kitchen bench top! Amazing work, guys! Highly recommend these guys to anyone."
Refurbishing table
"FANTASTIC! I made an enquiry online and cannot fault any aspect of my dealings with the Timber Doctor. The technician was responsive, reasonably priced and very easy to deal with. Refurbishing the table was significantly cheaper than purchasing a new one, and we’re so happy with how it turned out. Move forward with confidence. Highly recommend!"
Outdoor furniture
"Wow, what an amazing job the Timber Doctors did on our new teak outdoor furniture. I rang them chasing a product that I was advised to purchase, but after chatting regarding the best product and minimal long-term maintenance, I decided to let them take charge so that the job was done properly the first time. Job was done by the time I arrived home from work... hassle-free service and one very happy customer! Would highly recommend using these guys for any timber work, be it new or old."
Timber bench top
"After 20 years of water damage and neglect, these guys transformed our timber bench tops. They were very flexible with dates and times to do the work and even accommodated a last-minute change of colour request. I would thoroughly recommend the Timber Doctors; I only wish we had done it years ago. 5 stars!"
Stone floor
"Very professional technicians, they have done an amazing job on 58 chips on my tiled floor… truly unbelievable. No need to get new flooring. They have made my day."
