Precision Leather Restoration

Overall, he did exactly what he said he would do and provided us with an explanation of how a leather sofa should be cared for. He also had some product that he'd used and we bought a container. He also showed us how to and how often to clean the sofa. He did a great job.

Larry showed up very promptly and proceeded to work on the furniture he had previously given me a quote for. The chairs and ottoman look like new and I hope to get many more years of life out of them. I would definitely recommend Precision leather. Larry was very knowledgable and shared with me how to take care of the leather in the future.

I have a leather sectional that is about 10 years old. The seat cushions and armrests had become faded and my dog had damaged the seat of the corner cushion. Larry came out promptly to provide an estimate. We scheduled the service for about 3 weeks from that day. He explained that the repair on the damaged area would be imperfect because the dog had scratched the leather all the way through the top coats down to the bare hide and the tear was really tattered. I give Larry an A+ for service. However, I am not terribly happy with the end result of the restoration. The color looks good, but the restoration product didn't end up working very well on my sectional. 1) The product appears to be latex based and it only adheres to leather. My seat backs and seat tops are leather, but the treatment peeled off of the vinyl sides and fronts of my seat cushions. I don't fault Larry at all for that. Just wanted to not it in case anyone reading this is considering restoring furniture with any non-leather parts. 2) The restoration appears to be wearing off on the front edges of the leather on the seat cushions. It's not fading, it looks like it is getting scraped off completely where the backs of our knees contact the cushion. 3) The restoration treatment did not adhere to the area that was repaired. I knew up front that the repair might not work. Larry and I discussed this. I was just surprised that the color he sprayed on that area peeled off so quickly. I guess it is because the repair was so large that there was no leather for the treatment to bond to. Again, I think Larry is incredibly professional and honest. The restoration just didn't work very well on my sectional.

Larry of Precision Leather is a very easy going kind person. He came out for the initial visit/quote and quickly assesed the situation with each piece of furniture. He was not high pressure at all rather he let us take our time to decide. Upon giving him the job he made it easy by stopping by our home and picking up the small pieces he could (4 cushions and the ottoman) and starting the process off-site (his workshop/office) with those units. He then scheduled the actual on-visit to our home..he arrived on time, took the amount of time promised, was conscious of family schedules and completed the job. The units look brand new and reflect the kind of care we take in our home. We would recommend Precision Leather to anyone who needs to restore leather furniture items!

Larry came to my house (on a holiday weekend none-the-less!) to clean and restore a leather bench. WIthin five hours, my soiled leather bench looked like a brand new piece of furniture. NO ONE knows leather like Larry. He educated me on how to care for the leather furniture I own, questions I need to ask when purchasing new leather furniture, products I need to order to keep my furniture moisturized and clean. It was educational and informative and I would recommend Precision Leather for ALL your leather needs!

Larry was great, he called and was always on time, he even called to ask if he could come earlier. Larry made our couch look better then brand new! He was clean with his equipment and very detailed. He educated us about leather and how it's manufactured and the care it needs. Very informative and helpful, I would definitely recommend him.

All went well. Larry was very personable. Explained how we should take care of the leather going forward.

Larry arrived on time and did an excellent job on cleaning and conditioning our recliner and couch. He offered serveral helpful hints on how to care for our leather furniture along with recommending products. He inquired how we found him and when we mentioned Angies List, he told us to log onto the website in and download our 10% coupon. Now thats customer service!!

We scheduled the appointment and Larry came as promised. He made sure the area around the furniture was completely protected,. and began his process on our leather recliner, and leather couch. We had no idea how painstaking a procedure this actually was, but as the work progressed we saw our furniture restored. We were ready to purchase new furniture, and we are so happy we had Larry do the work, and make our furniture look new again. His price was more than fair, and Larry's work ethic is truly professional. We would highly recommend this company.

Larry arrived on time and worked most of the day. The most used section of the sofa was very discolored and cracked from body oils and Larry did a fabulous job making the sofa look like new. He also educated us on how to care for the sofa going forward and left us a free bottle of leather conditioner for our use.

Does the work in the home. Prompt. Colored the whole cushion, matching the upper cushion perfectly. Looks great.

It was smooth and fast and he was very neat and careful in his work. The result is amazing!

Dealing with Precision Leather was a wonderful experience. Larry Klein performed all the work himself and was an absolute delight. My leather furniture looks as good as the day it was delivered. I can highly recommend Precision Leather for your restoration project.

Contacted Larry (owner) and he responded immediately and showed up on time. He restored our approx 18 year old furniture to "like new" condition. He is very knowledgeable and cares about customer service. We are very pleased!!

The owner, Larry, was helpful and professional from the first phone call. Larry went the extra mile to go out to Plano and took a good look at the sofa and reported back in a timely manner. His estimate was free and he waited patiently to be let in (as there was a miscommunication on when the homeowner would be able to be present). He told us we would need to go a few shades darker on the sofa to completely cover any residual staining and offered to send us swatches to show us the color the sofa would be transformed to. He was always prompt for his appointments, and did a fantastic job on the cleaning and restoration. We were very pleased overall with his services and professionalism. Thanks Larry!

I was very pleased with the result. The owner came to our house and gave us an estimate and then set the date. He showed up exactly when he promised and spent most of the day doing the four pieces. He is very professional and I had no hesitation having him in my house. The end result was fantastic. The furniture looks like new. It does feel a little different, not as soft as before, but the improved look is worth it. There were a few small scratches at the base of one couch that he missed, but it was hard to see everything in the afternoon light. We didn't see them either until later. He left some touch-up paint with us that we can use if we want. I will certainly recommend him to my friends.

We had originally called another company and paid to have them come out and give us an estimate to stain our leather couch. They were scheduled to come out and they didn't show. Then they wouldn't return our phone call. Thankfully they didn't follow through, because I came on here and searched and found Color Glo. I took a picture and sent it to Larry. He came out and looked at the couch and gave us an estimate at no charge. We scheduled him to come out.. right before Thanksgiving and then had the cushions returned to us right after Thanksgiving. It was such an easy process with him and he is a very nice guy. Our couch is at least 10 years old and it looks like new. He did a FANTASTIC job and we couldn't be more pleased. We hope he is around in another 10+ years because we will never use anyone else!

We found this guy from Google search and he came out to do an estimate to compare with a couple others. He felt he could restore the leather and not need to replace it as others recommentded. His approach and cost was about half the other approach so we went with Color Glo. He also mentioned that he gave a discount with Angie's List so you can thank him for our membership! We're glad we used Color Glo and would recommend him highly to anyone.

I called and asked that he come have a look at my two leather chairs and let me know if they could be cleaned. When he arrived, he said he probably couldn't get them completely cleaned so I opted to let him dye them back to the original medium brown color. I should have asked more questions but trusted that he knew what was best after reading the reviews. He said the chairs were definitely worth being dyed so I agreed to have it done. He said they were old and very dried out but would be fine with the color if I condition them with a conditioner he sells. I asked if the color would be in all the folds and creases and he assured me it would. When he finished, I saw that there was not color in those areas nor was there any color around the nailheads on the front of the chairs. He uses an airbrush to spray the color on which I did not realize until he started. I thought the color would be wiped on like color would be applied if you dyed a pair of shoes. He explained that he airbrushes to get to the small areas. Well, I would think the areas around the nailheads would be that target. He said he couldn't get to those areas because if he sprayed it there it would run down and make a big mess! The color on the welting on the front of the chairs has already started to flake off. I called and asked him to come and look at these areas along with the ones he missed. He came over and told me that normal wear would wear the color off in these areas. I have a leather sofa that is 10 years old that has some wear but no flaking so I understand wear over time but not in 2 - 3 months and not flaking. He left me some of the color product he uses as I told him I would rather put it no myself. I have put the conditioner on as he told me I should and there is some softening but he said it could take a year to get them back to a soft feel. My friends say they now have a plastic look to them. I don't really trust that these will last long and feel like I just wasted $750.

He sounded professional and was initially very responsive to the initial inquiry. After sending pictures of the repair to be done, he quickly give me a quote. He asked, via email on 8.16, for possible dates, to which I offered two weeks worth and the option to choose another date. However, he has not returned phone messages or multiple emails to schedule the work. Based on his response, he seems confused. I was referred to him by company staff from whom I bought the couch (Natuzzi) and only called him. He failed to tell me he was overbooked, which didn't matter anyway. I would have waited, but after two phone calls and three emails, he still did not respond. I will definitely let the company know he is unreliable and apparently gets confused. UPDATED NOVEMBER 27, 2012: Sorry sir, you have me confused with someone else. I called only your company based on a referral from the couch maker. You gave me an estimate and I accepted. I had no reason to call another provider. I left you two emails and one voicemail regarding your availability. You failed to respond and have evidently minipulated your story to excuse your behavior.

Did an excellent job- made our leather sofa look like new!

Larry from Color Glo was on time and just an outstanding individual to do business with. He was good at giving advice and just an A+ kinda man to trust with your furniture. I would definitely recommend him. He is a nice older/mature man who understands the profession very well and he is not at all intimidating or trying to overcharge you just to make a profit. I just joined Angie's list for the sole purpose of finding someone who could fix my furniture that needed repairing and I needed someone who had good reviews and could be trusted not to mess things up. He met all the criteria that I was looking for as far as professional and affordable and finding him on Angie's list was worth every penny. The thing I liked most about the job done was that he did it all at my home and did not need to take my furniture elsewhere to complete the repair.

We obtained an estimate for refurbishing two chairs and an ottoman. We had a hard time connecting due to conflicting schedules but Larry was very flexible and we finally met for an estimate. He provided the estimate as well as some general leather-care tips.We have not gone forward at this time as we're not sure we want to invest the money in these chairs.

Larry was courteous, helpful, and wanted to be sure that I was pleased with his work. Upon his first attempt to match the color (it my dimly lit living room), I felt the repair color was a little too dark. He opened the windows and doors to let more light in and remixed the color. This time, he matched the color perfectly. After the repair, we talked about how to care for leather furniture. Though I did not purchase the conditioning product he had for sale (and he truly wasn't pushy about selling it), I did appreciate the information. I would definitely use ColorGlo again or recommend the business to a friend.

It was a positive experience with the company. There was some white bleached out on both the couches and he got it to match them exactly.
