They are magicians.Sharyn did a miraculous job repairing some cat scratches on a brand new leather ottoman. The ottoman looks like it was never damaged, nor repaired. Amazing. 👏🏻👏🏻

Sharyn picked up and dropped off my hotrod roof for re dying. It's 42 years old, white & severely stained. When Sharyn dropped it back off, it looked brand new, and I couldn't be happier with the outcome.Cheers Brett
Response from the owner: Thank you Brett was a great challenge and awesome outcome can’t wait to see it driving around town

BEWARE!!!BEWARE!! YOU WILL NOT BE HEARD!!! Had Sharyn of Melbourne Dyeing restore the leather seats of a 1998 two seater car. As I live in Tasmania I had no opportunity to physically examine the condition of the leather that was supplied by someone from Victoria. Sharyn told me that she would have preferred the leather to have remained on the seats but told me that the leather could be dyed and repaired except for the Alfa Romeo logo.On inspecting the finished work an EXPERIENCED and RESPECTED Tasmanian motor trimmer,with years of experience in the restoration of vintage cars, told me I had WASTED my money ($1600 and freight). He agreed to and did give Sharyn his HONEST opinion. HE TOLD ME THAT Sharyn HUNG UP ON HIM!I tried to phone Sharyn to agree on an amicable resolution. She NEVER answered the phone; and only exchanged messages. She offered to dye a square meter of leather, supplied by me, at no cost. I didn't want to spend more money on material and freight when I could have leather dyed in Tasmania by a local professional. My expectation was that Sharyn of Melbourne would have offered at least a refund of $500 to compensate me for a material that the motor trimmer cannot use; and for the acute distress caused to an octogenarian. So BEWARE! BEWARE! If something goes wrong you will NOT be heard!I sent Sharyn this review before posting. TOTAL SILENCE
Response from the owner: Thank you for your review … I have all the messages in writing that the leather was to stay on the seats and your refused Unfortunately your motor trimmer. Expected brandNew leather .. we can never achieve that we only restore the original leather .. I am sure a lot of people will read your review and then read all the 127 5 star reviews for our honesty and amazing service we offer I am sorry you didn’t find our service to your expectations
Leanne Walsh
Our 11 year old leather lounge suite looks brand new. The service was amazing. Pick up and drop off. A seamless process. Sharyn even gave us some touch up paint if required for the future.And to think we were going to throw out the lounge suite as we thought it was beyond repair. However, upon investigation, the same suite new was around $20k. This prompted seeking other options which is how we came accross Melbourne Dyeing. So happy that we decided to take this option as sustainability is our future.
Response from the owner: Thank you Leanne for your wonderful honest review
Ray Lane
Whilst carrying out a colour change to our sitting room we were faced with what to do with our near new swivel Chair. The solution was to die as we could not get a replacement in black.Fantastic job and cost effective as they picked up and delivered plus kept us informed at all times.Would definitely recommend this company.
Response from the owner: Thank you rayGlad we could help with this one No need to buy new when we can recolour

We had an 8 year old leather sofa that was heavily faded and marked up but such good quality that I wouldn't replace it. Sharyn worked dye magic on it and returned the colour to its original in only a week. I'm thrilled with the outcome. My sofa looks gorgeous! Highly recommend.

Berto Vaissiere
AMAZING service and quality. It is so rare to find dedicated, patient, solution-oriented and honest people like these. And generous as well as they delivered my sofa covers at home without charging anything. I couldn’t thank so much for such a trivial yet wonderful experience. All the very best wishes to this business and their owners. No wonder there is 5 starts all the way. Respect. Berto
Response from the owner: Thank you so much for your reviewSorry we couldn’t help you this timeBut at least you have nice clean wash covers .. enjoy and have a lovely weekend sharyn Melbourne dyeing

Fiona Douglas
Restored a King Leather lounge with significant animal claw scratches, a burn mark from a hot cup and general wear and tear. Looks and smells brand new! The lounge was saved from the curb side.Customer service was first class, compared to others I contacted first. Picked up and delivered back in just over a week - which was quicker than advised. Definitely recommendWell worth repairing and restoring your leather furniture rather than it go to landfill (as this one may have ended up). Thanks for the ease of which this all happened.
Response from the owner: Thank you so much for you amazing review, so nice to see people restore their lounges rather than tip them ..well worth restoring such worthy couches

Tim Handfield
Our old distressed leather lounge suite was torn, bleached and stained. Sharyn’s service was fast and her effort to match the best parts was outstanding. With just one co-worker they picked up and delivered a heavy suite navigating a busy car park and lift. Sharyn was sensitive about the desired effect and the results were amazing. The service was quick with great communication and progress photos along the way.
Response from the owner: Thank you so much timFor your review we really appreciate it and. So glad we could Restore your beautiful lounges

Dan Bradley
Emailed Sharyn on short notice to repair a heap of bleach marks on my rental properties carpet. She was very accommodating and promptly came out. Her and Brandon quickly blitzed through the property correcting all the stains. She has a lifetime guarantee on her work and has checked in multiple times to make sure I'm happy with it. I know going forward if the marks return she will be more than willing to come back.
Response from the owner: Thank you Dan really appreciate you taking the time to upload before and after photos .. it was a pleasure working for you

Mel Boehme
Sharyn came out to colour dye our carpets which I thought would most definitely need replacing. She was amazing and not only did the huge bleach stains disappear I had trouble spotting where they even were, the colour match was perfect. She was professional and efficient in her work and would highly recommend.
Response from the owner: Thank you so much for your honest review
Robert Burns
Our Tessa Leather Chairs (more than 40 years old) recently completed their circuit of family members and were returned to us. Two of the chairs looked a little worse for wear and the third had severely crazed leather, some splits and cat scratches. At best we were hopeful that two chairs could be salvaged. Fortunately I discovered GV Carpet & Leather Restorations.We now have three restored chairs. The restored leather has the appropriate look (a rich black) & feel (soft & supple). Our decision to repair rather than replace has been vindicated. We are very happy with the outcome and wish to congratulate Sharyn and Brandon on a job well done. Their communication at all times was exemplary, as was their enthusiasm for the task at hand.Our kids have now seen the restored chairs and were also very impressed.
Response from the owner: Thank you Robert

J Smith
Sharyn did a fantastic job of repairing and colour- matching our very loved and super-comfy leather lounge suite. The leather was so worn out and reupholstering was so expensive but we really werent ready to part with it. However we thought there'd be no option but to buy a new one. But then we found Sharyn and wow were we impressed! She has worked magic on our lounge suite and it looks almost new now. She was thorough and has a great eye for detail. Her colour matching was perfect and she is a lovely lady to deal with. We are very happy indeed!
Response from the owner: Thank you so much for your review I am so happy to if helped restore your comfy lounge
