Services & Process

Furniture repair at a Fibrenew location typically means restoring cracked leather sofas, faded vinyl chairs, and damaged plastic trim rather than replacing the entire covering. Auto upholstery work often focuses on fixing leather seat tears, scuffs on door panels, and dashboard cracks that are common in older vehicles. The repair approach is usually faster and less expensive than full replacement, making it a good fit for items that are in good shape overall but show specific areas of wear. Commercial clients like hotels, medical offices, and restaurants also use this type of service to maintain seating without closing for days.

Service Area

This franchise location covers the Hummelstown area along with Hershey, Harrisburg, and surrounding Dauphin County communities. Given the mobile service model, customers in towns like Palmyra, Elizabethtown, and Middletown can also request service without needing to transport anything.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between furniture repair and reupholstery?
Repair focuses on restoring specific damaged areas, like a crack in leather or a tear in vinyl, while reupholstery replaces the entire fabric covering of a piece. Repair is faster and less expensive but only makes sense when the damage is localized.
Can you fix cracked leather on a car seat?
Yes, leather crack repair is one of the most common auto upholstery services this type of shop provides. The process involves filling, re-dyeing, and blending the repaired area so it matches the surrounding leather in texture and color.
Do you come to my home or do I need to bring the furniture in?
Fibrenew operates as a mobile service, so a technician typically comes to you rather than the other way around. This is especially convenient for large furniture pieces or vehicles that are difficult to transport.
How long does a typical furniture repair take?
Most single-item repairs are completed in one to three hours during a single visit. More extensive damage or pieces requiring multiple treatment stages may need a follow-up appointment.
Can vinyl restaurant booth seating be repaired rather than replaced?
Vinyl repair is a cost-effective option for commercial seating that sees heavy daily use, since it's far cheaper than replacing full booths. Many restaurants in the Harrisburg area use this approach to keep dining areas looking clean without a major renovation.
Will the repaired area look like the rest of the material?
Color and texture matching is a core part of the Fibrenew process, and skilled technicians can get close matches on most leather and vinyl surfaces. Very faded or heavily worn surrounding material can make a perfect blend harder to achieve, which a technician will point out upfront.
