Hiring furniture repair companies

[DanielleBruce]

My family and I are planning to move to a new house soon. Before doing so, I want my leather furniture to look good as new, so I can bring them with me on our new space. I’m wondering how I will know if this furniture repair company I found online can bring them back to their original condition. What things should I know and consider? Please help me out!

It depends on how your furniture is made and what you are asking them to do.

Is it sprung? Does it need new springs or just new foam?

Perhaps it is just cosmetic? In which case you can go a long way yourself with a decent leather care kit.

Unfortunately furniture repair can often work out more expensive than straight replacement.

This is an unusual question for a first time poster on a woodworking forum.

It's an unusual way to start a spam post.

Could have been worse, it could have been about sharpening!

It has all the appearance of spam, doesnt it?
If it isnt, its on the wrong forum. If it is what kind of weird person would waste their time and ours?
Is it a cry for help? Is he so damn sad that this is the only way people will talk to him?

My mum used to recover leather chairs and we all thought she was far to cheap and it was still expensive so be prepared for a hefty bill....

But yes a weird first post.
