I recently completed a Leather Repair Course with The Leather Repair Company, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the experience. Richard delivered the training with exceptional professionalism and expertise, ensuring every detail was clear—even though I came in with no prior experience in the industry. The 3-day course, plus an additional day dedicated to Two-Tone techniques, equipped me with invaluable knowledge and skills. I now feel confident in my ability to carry out leather repairs. Additionally, they provided all the materials I needed to get started right away, which made the process even more seamless. What truly sets The Leather Repair Company apart is their ongoing support. They’ve assured me that I’ll have access to their guidance, not just at the beginning but for many years to come, as I continue to develop in this field. I wholeheartedly recommend The Leather Repair Company to anyone looking to enter or expand their skills in the leather repair industry. Their commitment to their trainees' success is unmatched.

I have attended a four-day leather repair course, which was a fantastic opportunity for me to improve and learn new skills from a master of leather repair. The way Richard talks about leather is amazing; you can feel during the course that he is putting everything from his heart into teach you abut leather and the whole restoration process. All of this makes you feel like you came to the right place to learn, and you can be sure that you will have the opportunity to be successful in the future. Thank you, Richard, and of course, I would like to thank Carolynne and Callum for any support during the course. I am recommending to everyone this course and its products with 300% trust. Marcin.

Easy to send in your damaged leather, obtain an estimate, pay and have it returned quickly. Repair of jacket very tidy at a reasonable cost. Don't leave those leather items in the back of the cupboard and don't throw them away. Send here and prolong the life of the item.

They did a fantastic job of restoring George Michael's sofa back to 'as new' condition and it now looks exactly the same as it did on the cover of Patience. They are also a great business to work with too.
Response : Thank you for the opportunity it gave us, restoring the couch was an honour in all fairness Even if we do say ourselves it did come out looking amazing. Thank you Team LRC.

We had 4 days training course in June. We are from South Korea, and it was totally first time in UK. They welcomed us warmly and kindly. He is so passionate and professional in training. And all products are absolutely incredible. We have our own Leather Repair Company in Korea. So we have used and studied most of all products they have during the course. I guarantee that these products are much better than you are using now. It was really good time to share our knowledge and skills. (Actually we had learned more and more from him).We are planning to go and have another course in this year.It's definitely worthy. Thank you again ! LRC family :).Moreexpand_more

4 day leather repair course. All I can say is wow. The whole team at the LRC are fantastic and I was made to feel at home for the 4 days I was there. Richard was a fantastic teacher and answered all my questions and queries I had no matter how small or trivial they were, and l left there full of confidence that I can start doing repairs by myself and improving on my newly found skills. I would highly recommend the 4 day course to anyone wishing to learn the trade. Once agian a big thank you all at LRC.

I attended the 4 day leather course in may this year and would recommend this to anyone either looking to start a repair business or currently does this for a living and is looking for more knowledge about leather and different techniques to use. It was a great 4 days, both Carolynne and Richard were very friendly and welcoming. The facilities are great and the training is very hands on which helps massively when learning. Once trained you get to be part of a massive repair network, which helps you with any questions you need and new ideas which you may put into practice within your own work. The leather repair company have helped me grow my own business which I was 9 months into a d I thank them greatly for this. Keep up the good work guys. Thanks. Matt.

I recently purchased a kit that was for restoring 4 seats, however the 500ml dye ran out on the 3rd seat which is rather annoying, especially after being stingy to make it last and following every step. A simple solution either, don’t state how many seats it would cover or be a little bit more generous with the dye just so we all have enough, maybe to compensate the extra cost of 100ml of dye get rid of the gloves, scotch bright and the little brochures. It would have been a nice gesture to have been offered 100ml of the dye free of charge. Overall the dye is very good and worked well.
Response : Hi John thank you for your feedback we appreciate it and listen to our clients. Providing gloves is essential for those who have skin conditions with products I’m Sorry you didnt have enough colour this isn’t something we’ve had before and we sell hundreds of these kits per month. The brochure helps so many people as it contains a lot of helpful tips and guidance how to restore leather correctly and not giving people the red Emery pads means they can strip the old colour off making it an impossible to talk for pole to compete a restoration job We are here to help and we will look into things for the DIYer for the future to see how we can improve things Thank you for your your business we appreciate it a great deal.

After starting my new car valeting business , I decided to book the 2 day course designed for valeters and detailers. The course is very interesting teaching you about the different leathers and the manufacturing process involved. There is a lot of hands on training, and this has given me more confidence in now tackling leather interiors etc. The training centre is easy to find and has excellent training facilities. All the staff where very friendly and helpful and very knowledgeable in leather care and repairs.

I am so glad I attended the Leather Repair Company’s 4 day training course in July. The course facilities were excellent and the staff so friendly and helpful, this created a great place and atmosphere to learn, practice and develop new skills. Richard’s training was first class and he shared a fantastic amount of knowledge and expertise in all things leather and repairs which he had gained over 30+ years in the business. The course was very easy to follow with step by step hands on tuition and lots of practice sessions on tears, rips, cuts, holes and recolouring to name a few. I left fully confident with the ability to take on jobs I would have normally turned away and the reassurance that I have support at the end of the phone when needed. I would highly recommend this course to anyone who wishes to develop their existing skills or to add leather repairs to their current business.
Response : Hello John thank you for your feedback it was a complete pleasure to train you on our 4 day leather Repair training course. We are always here to help stay safe.

I have been a car detailer for over 20 years and in that time cleaned a lot of car Leather and thought I had always done a top job however after using your product today on my own BMW's white Leather which I thought was spotless I was shocked to see how dirty they really were and how different my cars interior looks now your products are truly fantastic and going forward will be the only Leather cleaner my company will use. Thank you again "truly fantastic".
Response : Hello Stephen Thank you for your feedback we greatly appreciate your feedback. We are very happy that’s your over the moon with our productsThank you stay safe LRC Team.

I completed my training course with the leather repair company in October 2017, Richard and the team were brilliant, the course was everything I had hoped for showing me all of the techniques to correctly clean, repair, colour and protect leather. Since then they have been a constant source of information and constantly bring new products to market and are always there to help with problem solving along the way. The videos they produce are a constant source to jog your memory when you are in the middle of a job and need guidance. A great company with great products and great values. I cannot recommend them enough, thank you again for helping me grow my business.
Response : Hi Lee thank you for leaving us a review, we truly appreciate it. We glad you’ve learnt a new skill and our ongoing support system helps a great deal You know where we are if you need any help. Team LRC Restorers.
