Melbourne’s ever changing weather makes caring for your leather furniture even more important. Regular cleaning of your valuable leather upholstery will prevent cracking and keep it looking and feeling like new. We recommend you clean your leather furniture at least once a year, to help remove dirt and oils and to prevent fading, cracking and dryness. Well cared for leather upholstery can last up to four times longer than fabric upholstery, so it is definitely worth looking after.

We use a 3 step leather upholstery cleaning process to expertly clean your leather furniture.
Firstly we apply a leather cleaning solution followed by a deep but gentle brush clean. Then, we wipe with a soft cloth to remove built in dirt. Finally we apply a moisturising solution which we buff to give your leather upholstery a beautiful, soft finish and a shine like new.
If your leather furniture is faded or cracked, then cleaning will help prevent any further damage, however, it will not repair the damage. For leather that has been damaged, we recommend you contact a leather restoration expert.
Leather lounge cleaning is labour intensive, therefore it costs a little more than fabric upholstery cleaning.

In Melbourne, constant weather changes can take a toll on leather furniture. Hot, dry summer days can draw moisture out of leather, causing it to dry, fade and crack, while sudden cool changes make the material expand and contract, stressing fibres and stitching. Damp periods can introduce excess moisture, leading to musty smells or even mould in poorly ventilated homes, and winter heating systems further dry out the air, accelerating wear. Regular professional cleaning and conditioning help protect leather from Melbourne’s fluctuating climate and keep it looking soft, supple and long-lasting.
