Relocation repairs

Damage to cabinets, tables, or chairs after a move? We often repair these directly on-site. We also expertly restore upholstery made of leather, vinyl, or fabric. Additionally, we repair floors made of wood (such as parquet), laminate, or natural stone (such as tiles) on location following moving damage.

Fusion technique

We can repair superficial damage to leather upholstery using the fusion technique.

Here’s how it works: faux leather or PVC is roughened around the damaged area and then degreased. The damage is filled with a compound which, when heated, bonds with the material at the fusion point—forming one seamless piece with the surrounding area.

Next, we create a mold of the texture and carefully spray the correct color onto the spot using a fine airbrush. The mold is then heat-set to achieve a realistic finish. The result is stunning—the damage becomes practically invisible.

Furniture damage

Depending on the type of damage, we repair furniture on-site or in our workshop. For example, a dining table with deep scratches is usually collected for repair, while a wall cabinet with a scratch or dent can often be fixed at your home. Together, we determine the best approach.

Transport damage to stairs, ceilings, or walls
Accidents can happen easily, especially during a move. Think of furniture bumping into walls, handrails, or stair treads around corners. We repair this damage and also clean stair coverings if they have become soiled in the process.

Our process

On-site inspection

After your report, we visit the damage site to explain the repair process, our working method, and the expected result — also to your client if needed.

Estimating the cost for assessing the damage

Not a client yet? Then we charge an inspection fee, which will be discussed with you in advance.

Client – Estimating the cost for damage assessment

As the client, you will receive a visit notification, a report, and a cost estimate. We will then ask for your approval before proceeding with any further actions.

Follow-up appointment to carry out the repair

In consultation, we schedule a repair appointment. After the work is completed, the client gives approval — ensuring satisfaction for both parties.

Testimonial

I am impressed with the two team members who visited my home yesterday. They were incredibly polite, dedicated, and professional, paying attention to every detail. Their perfectionism and friendliness stood out. Both the cabinet and the table look as good as new—there is absolutely no sign of any repair work. I couldn’t be more satisfied with their service! Thank you very much.
