Please note: That for any of the following services a photo of the item along with some history or details of the article and the required action would greatly assist when making the initial contact .

   

REPAIRS 

Do you have an old or favourite item that needs some T.L.C ?

 

As these services are designed for those well loved items you would like to continue using but they may need some assistance to enable you to continue to do so.

The Repair and/or replacement of damage parts or items can include the following:

  • Straps, strap holders, (Including Equine equipment)

  • Edges and hems and coverings

  • Buckles or other types of fastening

  • Re-stitching

  • Patching or making good Rips or Tears 
     

 

Whilst every effort will be made to achieve the perfect match between any old and new components. Each individual article and any previous dying process used upon it has its own peculiarities. Leather also naturally alters as it ages, with stretching and colour alteration being common factors. This may inhibit an “invisible” repair or perfect match being acheievable. Nevertheless it is still worth making contact to ask the question as other acceptable alternatives from a simple repair may be available. e.g. the complete replacement of a larger part of the article rather than a more obvious partial repair to one small section may be a better solution.

 

RENOVATIONS 

Either as part of a repair process or purely in its own right, we also offer a cleaning, re-polishing and/or lacquering process. Which can bring an item back to its former glory.

 

As explained above each individual article has its own peculiarities, these along with any deep scuffing or scratching, may mean that in some circumstances a complete return to its former “New” state may not be fully achievable. Nevertheless it is still worth making contact to ask the question as some remarkable improvements in appearance may still be possible.

 

 

REPLICAS

If your cherished article is beyond repair or renovation all may not be lost as it may be possible to produce a replica holding as true to the original as possible.

 

ALTERATIONS:

Do you have something at home in need of alteration or is the fit not quite right please make contact and every effort will be made to help address the problem and allow the article to be of future use.
