If your leather couch is flaking off in little black crumbs, it’s probably bonded leather or a leather-look cover that’s reached the end. It can’t be glued back. It has to be re-covered. The good news is that the frame underneath is usually fine, so you keep the couch and lose the peeling.

## What we see most

-   **Peeling seats and armrests.** The places you touch every day go first. The recliner in the photo above came to us like that, in black, and went home in tan.
-   **Torn seams and split panels.** A cushion that’s been dropped into a hundred times splits along the stitching.
-   **Flat cushions.** The cover’s fine but you sink to the frame. That’s a foam job.

## Real leather or leather-look

We work in both. Genuine leather costs more and ages with you. Leather-look is kinder on the budget and wipes clean, which is why restaurants and clinics ask for it. Bring your questions to the sample visit and we’ll put both in your hands.

She also wrote that the couch “was completed and returned the next day”. That was her job. Yours gets its own date when Kwanele quotes.

## Colour changes

Drag the slider above. That black leather couch went red. You’re not stuck with the colour you bought. We’ve re-covered black to tan, grey to burgundy velvet, and red-and-black to teal.

## Leather couch repair in Florida and Roodepoort

Florida and Roodepoort are our main area. We bring leather and fabric samples to your home, so you hold the leather up against your own walls before you pick. WhatsApp a photo of the peeling or torn couch to 074 019 9297 and you’ll have a quote from the photos. More on [Florida collections](/areas/florida/).

## Start with a photo

WhatsApp 074 019 9297 with a picture of the worst patch and one of the whole couch. We’ll tell you whether it’s a repair or a re-cover, and what it’ll cost.

## Questions we get asked

### Can you fix just the peeling parts?

Sometimes. If the peeling covers the seats and arms, a patch won't match and it'll peel again next to the repair. Send a photo and we'll tell you honestly which one your couch needs.

### Can I change the colour?

Yes. Two of the couches in our before-and-after went from black to tan and from black to red.

### Do you restuff leather cushions?

Yes. Lauren Lang had her L-shaped leather couch repaired and the cushions restuffed in the same job.
