Here in Australia we love DIY.  As the saying goes, you can fix almost anything with some duct tape and chicken wire.  The truth isn’t far from that and we’re not short on inspiration and ideas.  There are countless TV shows teaching us how to renovate, repair and restore everything from the old Holden sedan to an entire home and garden.

Add to this the thousands of YouTube channels devoted to even more specific DIY instructions on how to clean, repair, paint and life hack just about anything in and around the home and it’s no wonder us Aussies will give anything a go when it comes to repairs or restoration.

While there’s certainly a place for DIY, sometimes it is better to call in the professionals.  Electrical work comes to mind.  A professional can save you a lot of time and money, not to mention legal compliance.  They will also get the job done right the first time.  We’ve all been in that situation of trying to do it yourself, a little trial and a lot of error which usually ends up with the item in a worse condition that before you started.

When it comes to restoring your leather furniture, this is one of those times when calling in a professional will serve you much better than trying to do it yourself.  A professional leather repairer, like the team at The Leather Doctor, have the know-how, products and support to take care of any problem with your leather furniture, big or small.
