Car Seat Repair & Restoration
Your car seats endure daily wear — from cracks and fading to torn fabric and collapsed padding. Our Auckland team specialises in restoring seats to like-new condition using precision repairs and carefully matched materials. Whether it's a small tear or significant damage across a full set of seats, we deliver long-lasting results that improve both comfort and the resale value of your vehicle. No repair is too small or too complex.
Custom Seat Reupholstering
Ready for a complete interior transformation? We strip your seats back to the frame, replace worn padding and foam where needed, and apply your chosen fabric, leather, or vinyl with precision stitching. We offer a wide selection of materials and colours — match the original look exactly or create something completely custom. Seat reupholstering is one of the most impactful upgrades you can make to your vehicle's interior.
High-Density Foam Replacement
Flat or lumpy seat cushions are a sign the foam has broken down over time. We replace worn foam with high-density automotive-grade foam, cut and shaped to the exact profile of your seat. New foam dramatically improves driving comfort — especially on longer trips — and makes your reupholstered seats feel as good as they look. We stock a range of densities to suit different comfort preferences and vehicle types.
Armrest Repair & Reupholstery
Armrests take constant daily punishment and are often the first interior component to show wear — cracked vinyl, peeling leather, or flattened padding. We repair and reupholster door armrests, centre console armrests, and rear armrests using durable materials built to withstand the rubbing and pressure they endure every day. Refreshed armrests make an immediate difference to the overall feel of your interior.
Leather Conditioning & Restoration
Auckland's UV exposure and humidity are tough on leather car seats. Fading, drying, cracking, and colour loss are all common issues we see regularly. Our leather restoration service cleans, conditions, repairs cracks, and re-colours your leather seats to bring them back to life. In many cases restoration is a more cost-effective option than full reupholstery — and the results are stunning. We also apply protective coatings to slow future wear.
Headliner Replacement & Repair
A sagging or stained car headliner is one of the most distracting interior problems — and one of the most satisfying to fix. We re-attach or fully replace headliner fabric, ensuring it sits flush and smooth with no drooping or visible creases. We work with a range of headliner fabrics and can match your original material or upgrade to something new.
Carpet & Floor Liner Replacement
Worn, stained, or mouldy car carpet affects the appearance and smell of your vehicle's interior. We remove old carpet and replace it with cut-to-fit automotive carpet in a range of colours and pile heights, ensuring a clean, professional fit around all floor fixtures, pedals, and trim edges. New carpet dramatically improves the freshness and feel of your interior.
Door Panel Refurbishment
Door panels are a large and highly visible part of your vehicle's interior. We reupholster door panels in fabric, vinyl, or leather, with neat pocket and trim finishes to match your overall interior design. Whether you're restoring a vintage car's original panels or customising a modern vehicle, we deliver detailed, long-lasting results that complement the rest of your interior.
