A local atelier for repair and custom interiors

A worn seat bolster and a complete colour change start with different questions. For repairs, photograph the damage and the surrounding upholstery. For a redesign, show the whole cabin, including the doors, console and carpets you intend to keep. This helps us distinguish a local repair from a coordinated retrim.

Plan your visit

Contact us before bringing a vehicle or loose interior pieces. Use the directions link below for the current route to North Dixie Highway. Agree access, inspection and collection with the atelier; photographs can begin the discussion before an in-person visit.

Boat cushions and seats

For marine work, send the vessel type, location, a wide view of the seating and the underside of removable cushions. Identify fixed pieces before transport. See Boat upholstery for Hollywood for planning a marine upholstery project from Hollywood.

Prepare the visit around your project

A local project can start with one clearly defined concern: a hanging roof liner, an open seat seam or a full interior you want to rethink. Before arranging a visit to North Dixie Highway, decide whether you need diagnosis, material selection or handover for an already agreed scope. Those are different appointments. For a classic car, bring any photographs that explain the details you want to preserve; for a recent vehicle, include its seat equipment and trim specification. If you are comparing a repair with a redesign, send both priorities together so the discussion does not begin with a replacement that you did not actually need.

Keep the original equipment in the brief

Two seats from the same model can have different covers and internal equipment. Heating, ventilation, occupancy sensing, adjustable bolsters and seat-mounted airbags may affect which areas can be changed and how the work must be assessed. Tell us what is fitted; do not assume the equipment can be identified from a photograph of the leather alone.

Perforation is part of that discussion. A perforated appearance does not by itself establish that the material, backing and assembled cover are suitable for a ventilated seat. Likewise, decorative sewing is not a substitute for a manufacturer-specified safety seam. Safety-related components and restraint systems need the applicable vehicle guidance and a qualified assessment, separate from the styling choice.

For the initial enquiry, a normal photograph of the seat controls and the whole seat is enough. Do not unplug connectors, dismantle an airbag cover or remove a seat to obtain a better picture. Existing warning lights, an accident history affecting the seat or previous modifications should be disclosed before a scope is agreed. The upholstery brief should clearly identify the original functions intended to remain and any separate mechanical or electrical concern that needs resolution.

Assess the complete roof assembly

A headliner project begins with the board and the covering, then extends to the openings and trim that surround them. The visible fabric may have separated while the board remains usable, or the board may have damage that needs its own assessment. Staining and dampness introduce another question: the source of moisture must be understood before covering the area with new material.

Photograph the roof from the front and rear seats. Include handles, lamps, sun visors, pillars and any glass-roof opening. Tell us whether the sagging appeared gradually, after a leak or after previous work. Do not push adhesive through the face of the fabric or add fasteners as a way of preparing it for inspection; those changes can affect both the surface and the underlying piece.

Decide which surrounding parts belong in the quote. A new dark roof can look disconnected from pale pillars, while retaining the existing pillars may be exactly the restrained change you want. The edge treatment around openings matters as much as the broad flat area. Compare material thickness and texture in the actual roof layout, and discuss the removal route before any work starts. Car headliner repair and replacement covers the repair assessment; the broader headliner service also considers coordinated trim.
