    We have a leather bound coffee table that was very worn around the edges after years of kids' and husband's feet where they don't belong. Ivar did a great job at restoring it to practically new. It's hard to believe that it's the same table. I would highly recommend him for any leather restoration project!

Question and answer

Q. Describe the most common types of jobs you do for your clients.

A. We work a lot with leather repairs in the form of color applications on site. We also restore leather cushions when the surface is dry and cracking. That happens mostly on the leather sofa or leather chair seating areas. Rips and tears in leather can be repaired as well.
Dogs and cats do damage to furniture. Scratches, rips holes in leather furniture beyond wear and tear can be repaired. Check out the before and after samples in the picture section.

Q. Why does your work stand out from others who do what you do?

A. For all repairs we use materials and colors that are from the franchise. These are proven to provide better, longer lasting results then our competitors who purchase their products from different outlets online, from do-it-yourself stores and hobby stores.

Instead, we work with a system that step by step provides the best adherence, flexibility and durability.

Q. What do you like most about your job?

A. First and foremost there is never a dull moment in my life. I get to visit my customers and solve problems on the spot. I have the feeling I create value where ever I go. At the end of the day, I have a great sense of satisfaction.

Q. What questions do customers most commonly ask you? What's your answer?

A. "Can you fix this." And the answer is "Yes we can". With over 10 years of experience, and a team of over 100 franchise owners in the USA alone, we take pride in providing a solution on the spot.

Q. What do you wish customers knew about you or your profession?

A. ART and SCIENCE combined make it possible to repair and restore upholsteries. The SCIENCE is in the superior materials we have available from our Fibrenew franchise. The ART comes from years of hands-on experience, thinking out of the box. The repairs of leather and vinyl are never the same. All the work we do is custom.

Q. Do you do any sort of continuing education to stay up on the latest developments in your field?

A. With the Fibrenew franchise we have access to an intranet website where over 200 industry professionals share information daily. If at anytime one has a situation at hand, it is likely that a colleague has been through the same process and can provide helpful hints. That library is most extensive, constantly updated, and available 24/7/365.
We also have online seminars, annual regional training sessions, and a Fibrenew International Convention every three years.
Above is one of the was that enables us to provide a first class service to customers in the Chicagoland area.

Q. If you were advising someone who wanted to get into your profession, what would you suggest?

A. I don't have a job, I own a business and am responsible for the day to day operations. With the Fibrenew Leather Restoration Franchise, I am in total control of my destiny. Through the franchise, we have access to superior methods, chemicals and techniques. We have hands on training at least once a year, when we get the latest updates from our R&D team. If you are looking to start a business for yourself, contact me any time.
