Over a three year period, we've used FIBRENEW (Scott) twice. The first time to repair a leather sofa's arms -- that our cat scratched many times. Scott came out and cleaned up the flaws and made the sofa look like new. The second time, he repaired a white leather sectional that my daughter borrowed / and / her cat used as a scratching post. Scott worked on the sectional and its pieces -- it's AOK now! I would not hesitate to recommend FIBRENEW and Scott! read more

I cannot say enough good things about Scott and Fibrenew. My white leather passenger seat was ruined by my niece's spilled chai latte. And then destroyed by me trying to fix it. The color and finish were matched perfectly in less than an hour. I'm thrilled with the cost AND the results ! He is super nice, too. read more

Scott was prompt, courteous, and gave a reasonable price on refinishing my car's leather seat. Extremely nice gentleman and you can tell he really cares and takes pride in his work! Will call him again if the need ever arises. read more

I've used this business on multiple occasions for home furniture and my car. Professional, on-time, great results.

Had a very expensive leather recliner with leather damage to finish. Scott took his 16 years of experience and was able to do my repair at my home. A true artisan did an outstanding job and matched the color perfectly. Very happy with the results. read more

Scott did an amazing job on my 20+ year old couch! It looks almost brand new again. It was so convenient to have this service done at my house too, instead of having to move the furniture. I did have the seat back cushions replaced which was really worth it. The originals were not firm enough for me anyway. Scott was able to match the coloring so well that he did not even have to redo the entire couch. I really recommend this service and would not hesitate to use Fibrenew again. read more

Scott is super friendly and explained everything for the repairs to my truck seat. He was upfront and realistic about what I could expect and the cost. He was flexible with his schedule and did a great job. When a concern came up he was great about addressing it right away and didn't even charge for an additional repair he did. We are very pleased with Fibrenew and will not hesitate to use them again if the need comes up! read more

During our move, our movers punctured and tore our grey leather couch. It took a while to find someone willing to come out and repair it, but I found Scott at Fibrenew on yelp and he came out to fix the couch. I never expected the repair to be unnoticeable when he was done. It looks GREAT! I also had him redo I repair on a matching leather chair that I had tried to do myself and made worse and it looks like new! Three barstool repairs and again, AMAZING! I was ready to purchase new furniture for my family room, but Scott brought everything back to looking new again and saved me a ton of money. If you're on the fence about fixing or purchasing new, give him a call and see if he can help. Nice guy too. Thanks Scott! read more

Scott is awesome, knowledgeable, thorough and very customer service oriented! I have a two year old Arizona Leather couch that had begun to peel (see my review of them for more details) in one spot and they refused to fix it under warranty. I thought I was sunk, I had no idea peeling leather could be fixed. I fired up yelp and found Scott. Scott was very patient, talking through the process with me by phone and then answering all my follow up questions via email. He came out, was on time and went right to work. The couch looks beautiful, his color match was perfect and it looks brand new again. Most importantly, it passed the wife test, she's happy, so I'm really happy. haha Thank you Scott, you've got my recommendation and future business. Update review in 06/2016, less than a year later and the fix has begun peeling off. It was just too good to be true. Was perfect for a few months but I took off one star because it did not last. read more

When my fiancée and I moved into our new place, I had a 5-year old furniture microfiber furniture set (sofa, chair, ottoman) that needed some cleaning. She also had a chair that we considered for re-upholstery but we thought we'd give cleaning a shot. I was referred to Scott Donovan who runs the Bay Area franchise of Fibrenew through his associate in another district. The experience was nothing but seamless. Not only did some blood stains and undefinable dirt come out of our furniture, but it looked so clean that some of our guests thought we had just bought it. Also dealing with Scott was a pleasure, he quoted me over email based on some photos I sent, and the whole appointment was set up by email. He showed up as promised, and stuck to his time and cost estimate. A true pleasure to deal with a true professional. Highly recommended to get imbue your furniture with fresh life. For a couple of hundred bucks this is an absolute no-brainer. read more

We had Scott Donovan from Fibrenew come to our office to clean/repair some leather office chairs that had scuffs from hitting the bottom of the conference room table, blue pen stains and big dark marks where dye from people's clothes had transferred onto the pale beige leather. It took Scott most of the day to clean/repair the 9 chairs, but we are thrilled with the results. The chairs look almost as good as new. I'm happy, my boss is happy, and we'll be calling Scott the next time we have chairs that need attention. In addition, Scott was nice and easy to work with. He had everything he needed and was ready to get started right away. One note - the machinery he uses to fix the chairs is a little noisy so I would recommend doing this on a day when you don't have a lot of people in the office, or in a conference room or something. Highly recommended. read more

Emailed for quote request on a Thursday night and Scott came out Friday afternoon. A seam had started to rip on the armrest of my couch. He arrived on time and got straight to work. He knew what he was doing and was professional and personable. The armrest now looks like nothing ever happened to it. I'm very happy! read more

Had Scott out the other day to repair a leather cushion that had some of its finish removed. It was a fairly expensive piece of a much larger sectional and the scar that was left was really noticeable. I was beside myself for awhile not having any knowledge that something like that could even be repaired. I had tried some dyes that I got from Amazon, but the dye just made the scar even more noticeable to me. So Scott dropped by after I sent him the photos in the original quote request and went to work. He brought everything he needed and was very professional and meticulous. I couldn't be happier. It came out great. I can tell something was done, but the average guest in my home probably wouldn't be able to. At the end of the session I asked him for a referral for some stitching that had pulled out on an ottoman. Again, it was unsightly and I was concerned that the stitching could get pulled or ripped out further, ruining the cushion. He said that he had his sewing supplies with him in his car and that he could take care of it! Awesome! I had searched and searched on line for someone to address these repairs, and I check things like Yelp reviews to see how others' experiences were. Never had I come across Fibrenew, let alone someone who could restitch/repair leather furniture like this! Thank you Scott!! Your great reviews are well earned!! Highly recommended!! Just had Scott back for another repair. To find someone with his kind of specialized expertise is a blessing; especially out here in the suburbs. Just like last time, Scott arrived on time and was fully prepared. He knew exactly what to do and was able to render a long term fix to an age old problem; leather sofa stitching that had pulled out. Scott uses original materials and makes it look like there was never any problem. So happy to have him in my wheelhouse. Thanks again, Scott!! read more

We needed several small repairs on leather upholstery. Scott gave us a reasonable quote, showed up on time, and completed all the work quickly and professionally. The quality of his work was excellent on both a dark brown leather couch and black car seat. The was the best money we've spent in a long while. Everything looks new! Scott seems to be a great guy who cares about his business and his customers. If you need leather or vinyl repairs in your home, car, boat, etc., give him a call. read more

We had some mystery streaks pop up on our expensive beige leather couch, and we made it much worse by trying to get them out ourselves. Not only were the streaks still there after countless cleaning products, but we managed to rub of part of the leather on the cushion. I emailed Fibrenew on Thursday and Scott was able to come out the following Tuesday. I am so glad we hired him because the couch looks brand new. He treated the streaks and rub mark and built up the color to match the rest of the couch. When he was done you could never tell there was any damage. Job well done! read more

Although i sent detailed photos, Scott said he could not give me an estimate without coming to my home, which is the opposite of what is advertised. I had to take half a day from work to meet him. After all that, he did not show up. Stay away unless you like to waste time. Followed up with them. They said I was wrong, so I sent them the email from Scott confrming the appointment. Never heard from them again. Stay away! read more

Scott is amazing! He did a wonderful job restoring my leather car seat and car door. He was able to come out to do the repair sooner than I thought and gave me a quote that he stuck to. I would definitely recommend him! Thank you Scott! read more

Scott did a great job redyeing our couch. We definitely recommend him for leather repair.

Anyone needing leather repair due to cat scratching -- this is the place! We had extensive damage to several vertical areas of a couch and love seat. I fully expected we would need to replace these items. After Scott finished his work, there is NO visible trace of the cat scratching. Scott's work is fantastic. He exceeded our expectations. read more

Don't know what happened to this guy but got a zero response after several tries. Texted once and called twice. Nothing in the way of a response. I guess customer service is not high up on the list. Thanks anyways but it time to move on ... read more

Scott did the most amazing job totally renewing our worn leather sectional and ottoman! He is even more of a perfectionist than I am and color matched the pieces perfectly. This picky interior designer HiGHLY recommends Fibrenew and plans on using him again for our car seats. read more

Scott did an incredible job restoring the interior seat leather on my Ford Explorer. I am blown away! He is incredibly meticulous and careful, and did an unbelievable job. I have a brand new Ford, and was very upset when a dog seat cover that I bought online transferred black dye onto my new caramel-colored leather rear bench seats. The dealer tried to get the dye out and said that it was permanent. Scott re-dyed the leather and it looks brand new! He came to my office in Oakland, which was super convenient for me. He matched the color perfectly, was incredibly kind and professional, and I can't thank him enough. I highly recommend Scott and Fibrenew! read more

Wow, all I can say is that Scott saved the day! After a vintage leather chair (that had been recently restored) was deeply scratched by fingernails, I was unsure if I would have to reupholster the entire chair (very expensive) to get it back into good condition again. I called Fibrenew out of desperation. I initially sent in some photos through the website, and they responded within a day with a quote. Pretty much the next day, Scott popped in just to look at the damage to see how long it might take him to fix. (he squeezed me in between clients) He then came back later that week and spent 3-4 hours getting that chair back to perfection! I admit, it was a difficult job, but he really was so knowledgeable and thorough, he matched the color perfectly and the scratches are gone! I highly recommend Scott, he is an artist and craftsman! And, the price was really affordable! read more

Scott was great. The price for the service provided was good and his workmanship was very very good. If you need your leather couch couches fixed and repaired Scott it the man you need to call. All Communication before my apt was exceptional. Thank you Scott for your great work. read more

I have been meaning to write this review for some time. Last year I was having Fibrenew repair a leather item that was under warranty. The technician was on time I was satisfied with the work that was preformed. During the same service call I asked about having repair work done on my vinyl car seat. I had the seat repaired but a short time after I noticed that the product was peeling off. When I contacted Fibrenew I was informed that there was "no guarantee" for the work I had completed. I took my car to a company in the area that repaired car seats and was informed that the material used to repair the seat earlier would have to be completely removed as it was inferior. I had the seat repaired and I am very pleased with the work. Bottom line - Fibrenew was fine for the leather repair but stay away with them on vinyl car seats. read more

So, my 3 year old daughter being a true, busy little toddler, spilled red paint on my fabric sofa cushion. I searched the internet and found Fibrenew! I sent an email with a picture of the spot and received a response very quickly! The spot is gone and we are very pleased with the committment Scott had to removing the spot. We would highly recommend Fibrenew for your upholstery cleaning needs : ) read more

We recently had Mario Santos to repair our 10-year old leather couch. The couch is of a mix colors of ivory greenish and light grey. It took Mario quite some time to find the right match. When it was done, we were happy with the "face lift". However, one area started to peel off after a day or two. We called Mario again, he said it must be the grease. He made several additional trip to degrease that area until he could add on the color again. We really appreciate the extra effort by Mario and we are very pleased with his work ethics. read more

I had a great experience with Fibrenew Bay Area leather repairs. The office team responded to my on-line inquiry the same day. Scott came to my house for a consultation and was punctual, professional and knowledgeable. He quickly diagnosed the problem that I was having with several leather pieces and was able to help me come up with cost-effective solutions. I highly recommend Fibrenew. read more
