Alex from Fibrenew is AMAZING!!!

Sadly I took it to a shop prior and they made it so much worse!!

THANKFULLY I found Alex a couple days later and he brought my leather back to like new condition!

Definitely 10/10 recommend and grateful I found him when I did.

Thanks again.

From:

Nice. Save me big money , and it really looks good

Jam yin

From:

Alex and his team did an amazing job. Our leather chairs for our clients took a real beating during Covid. With all the Clorox used to sanitize them, the leather started cracking. Now they look brand new again. Thanks, Alex!

Mike Shepherd

From:

Our sun-faded and stained leather recliners and ottomans look brand new thanks to Alex's artistic touch!! What a great way to revive worn out leather furniture at a fraction of the price of replacing them! I highly recommend Alex with Fibrenew for revitalizing your leather furniture.

Jules D

From:

Alex and team did a fantastic job restoring various items on my boat. They showed up on time and got the job done quickly with high quality. I would defined recommend to friends and family!

Timothy Meyer

From:

Alex did an amazing job on a leather sleep sofa and ottomans that were in distressed condition to the point that we were going to donate them. They were 18 years old and had been exposed to the sun in our Laguna Beach home. Between wear and tear and the sun they looked horrible. Alex ended up spending the better part of a day, but in the end they looked brand new! He saved us several thousand dollars compared to us replacing them. I then had him repair the seat on my BMW which had worn and the leather ripped from where I would get in and out. Again, when Alex finished, I couldn't even tell there had ever been any damage. He is a pleasure to work with and now there are two of my neighbors who are going to use him!

Michael Rider

From:

The seats in our vehicle were renewed and cleaned. Yellow stains we could not removed were dyed over and it was a perfect match. I highly recommend Fibrenew's services,

Alexandre did a fantastic job repairing the vinyl captain’s chair of my 14 year old ski boat. He did such a good job, we gave him a second challenge the same day. He restored the leather of my “easy” chair and it’s ottoman to better than new condition.

Peter, Newport Beach, CA

Alex does great work. He's very skilled, like an artist! I had a few small tears in my interior car door and now it looks like new. Great to work with and made the entire process easy. He completed the job at my house while I worked. Now that's what I'd call customer service!

Robin Hanson

From:

Excellent job!!!!

Stella Fachinello

From:

Excellent service, precise work, delivered exactly as promised.

Chris Margiolas

From:

Fibernew repaired my 2018 Chevrolet Colorado. The seat was starting to come apart. They repaired it in a couple of days and it was as good as new. I would give them 5 out of 5 stars and highly recommend them.

Bob Hilton, Huntington Beach, CA

This guy is a Magician and an Artist.
Look at his wonderful work … it's unbelievable !!!!
Definitely the guy to go to !

Naiem Alahmad

From:

Restored a leather couch with extensive stain/discoloration to like new condition in about 2 hours.

Michael Simonsen

From:

For my Model Y, one of the kids placed gum on the seat, then tried to remove it and in the process removed the top layer of the seat... good grief. Tesla is outrageous with their service costs and in this case to replace the bottom seat they say they can't, they need to replace the WHOLE seat, at a cost of over $2k. After digging around I was referred to Alex, sent him photos and he said he can get it to 90% of new. I am pretty happy with the immediate outcome. See photos. There is an option other than reupholstering a newer car seat.

Victor Ryoo, DDS

From:

WOW… Alex from Fibrenew arrived on time to work on my BMW 650i convertible seats.

The condition of the front seats were in poor shape with wrinkles and cracks due to the age of the vehicle and sun.

After working hard to rejuvenate the seats, I was amazed to see that his work practically made them like new, showroom finish.

I am very pleased that is for sure.

Glad I found this company!

We can't even tell where the discoloration and scratches were on our leather sectional. Alex did an amazing job restoring our 10 year old sectional to an almost new condition. He was extremely professional, knowledgeable and pleasant to deal with. We highly recommend!

Colette Parsons

From:

Alex did amazing work on our car's bumper. The fees for his repair method was significantly less than replacing the scratched bumper. I HIGHLY recommend this work and Alex especially!

Debbie Cifone

From:

Alex was able to restore my (poorly maintained) leather sofa and chair back to its original beauty! He is hard-working, honest, pleasant, and very talented. I highly recommend him!!

Eileen S

From:

Alex took time repairing my leather seats as if it was his own car. As someone very particular about my car, it is safe to say I trust Alex on his professionalism and patience doing the best on my seat's repair. Highly recommend!

Adrian Lynn

From:

I had purchased a sofa and love seat from Ethan Allen twenty three years ago. It was pretty sad looking but had good structure. I contacted Alex to see if he could revive my sofas. Not only was he able to re-stuff the cushions which had deflated after years of use, but brought me my dream custom color in Carrara white ! Talk about a face lift! Not only did he fix my sofas but he revived an Aviator chair from Restoration Hardware, a barstool in which the leather peeled, and re-colored a leather hide which I will be using for a project to match the above sofas. I was very impressed with Alex, his work ethic (which is rare nowadays to find in contractors), and very pleasant/kind to deal with. Will definitely will use Alex again for future projects. Super ++++ ***** rating! Thank you Alex!

Janet, San Juan Capistrano

Alex is a true professional! The interior of my car looks like it is brand new. He was on time, and completed the work true to his estimate. His craftsmanship is outstanding!

Susan U

From:

Alex is the consummate professional at his craft. My 1985 Chevy Truck dashboard was in very bad shape from 37 years of sun damage. The vinyl was cracked and was lifting up from the metal base. I was a little skeptical that it could be repaired. Alex came to my home once a week for several hours a day for 3 consecutive weeks and worked his magic. The dashboard looks completely original now and exactly how I wanted it to turn out. Keep up the GREAT customer service Alex! You are a very good representative of Fibrenew.

jimmy, BUENA PARK

Lucas made my sad old armrests in my car look brand new! He did excellent work for a good price. I didn't even have to leave my house.

Gail Somers

From:

The technician Lucas Dias did an amazing job. He arrived on time and finished the job right away! Very satisfied with his work and the price is reasonable.

Art Decuna

From:

Alex Fachinello is a five star plus guy
He is courteous, professional and incredible
talented in his profession! He did an remarkable job on my car seats that I thought for sure were
going to needed to be replaced. After he left
wanted to tell everyone now great he is!

Leslie, Dana Point, CA

Alex and the work he does with Fibrenew on leather restoration and reconditioning is amazing. I have a very expensive leather sofa set I bought 6 years ago that endured years of play (and abuse) with my last dog - a very large lab - and current puppy, and decided to recondition the leather due to scratches and color fading due to sunlight exposure.

Alex spent two days working on the sofa and it's as good as good new. When I lived in the Bay Area, I used Fibrenew on a previous sofa set and had the same experience. Their work is magic and I would highly recommend to anyone who is looking to restore or recondition expensive leather/upholstery.

Last and most important, Alex is a good guy... very responsive and easy to communicate with and puts in extra effort to make sure his work meets expectations.

Ardy Daie

From:

Fast, easy and professional mobile service. The vinyl repair in my classic looks as good as new.

Kevin Parnell

From:

Outstanding Results!!! My car seats look brand new! Cracks and tears magically disappeared. Alex was extremely professional and courteous . He answered all my questions . Would highly recommend.

Leticia M. Reno

From:

This is almost a miracle! My two young cats had ripped my leather dining room chairs badly. Alex was able to restore them to an almost new condition in just a few hours. I love the chairs and they were no longer available so this made it extra special. Definitely call this company.

Mary Ann O CONNELL

From:

great service, great work, great prices

Gus Defalco

From:

My 2008 Mercedes CL65 AMG driver seat and glove box now look factory original thanks to Alex’s expertise. Did it in my driveway for the price quoted in several hours. I highly recommend him and his services.

Rod MacDonald

From:

Alex is a master. He was able to repair the seat cushion of my leather Manhattan recliner and match the color perfectly. If you have leather furniture in need of some attention - call Alex first, you won’t be disappointed.

John Briscoe

Amazing job done on my MB seats! Less than an hour, fair price and service done at my door! How perfect! Thank you Alexandre! Lucky the ones who found out about your company.

spencer miller

Alex was on time. He did a fantastic job of repairing both front seats of my vehicle. They look brand new. I highly recommend Alex and his service.

edward williams

From:

Amazing work. It's crazy to think someone can show up at your house, and bring your leather back to new. Alex was very nice and worked patiently. He took his time and did an amazing job. I found 2-3 areas that needed a little more work, and he came back a few days later to touch them up. The whole process was great. I will definitely be a future customer.

Yiannie M

Alex was great to work with and did an awesome job refurbishing our worn leather chair

Henry J

From:

This is an honorable company. I would definitely ask them to come into my home again.
I read referred to the company by Restoration Hardware.
We purchased a leather Cloud Sofa but the color was not right.
Alex took our sofa from a grey that was not right, to a perfect deep graphite. We love it, and he stands behind his work. Honorable.

Edward Cruz

From:

Vehicle interior cleaning as perfect as I could have ever imagined, wanted or needed. Highly recommended!

Rexford Parker

From:

I had a scratch on my glove compartment lid and a rip on the passenger seat. Thanks to Fibrenew, they are gone now! Looks like new!

John Zinsmeyer

From:

Alex of Fibrenew Newport provides outstanding customer service from beginning to end!
I found him on our neighborhood website and he came highly recommended. We have an old leather couch that we love and decided to try to get it restored. Alex came out to our house to take a look and give us a bid. My husband had additional questions so he came back out a second time. Our leather couch is 10+ years old and had significant sun damage as well. Alex showed us many before and after pictures of his amazing work!! He spent the day at our house working on the couch and took special care to protect our outside deck area where he set up. He was meticulous at his work and is very knowledgeable, kind and professional! Our couch looks like new and turned out exactly as Alex promised! We have 3-4 more projects that we will call upon Alex to complete!
You will not be disappointed with Alex!!!

Julie Borgens

From:

Absolutely Amazing quality work! Thanks Alex. My car looks brand new and I really appreciate all your hard work. Great service I highly recommend.

Kristen Noel

From:

Great job on repair of a tear in a leather seat. It’s refreshing to see other companies putting pride in their work product (as we do)! Always use local referrals such as this if you want a friendly businessman who provides quality work. Very good 5 Stars!

BBQ Repairpros

From:

Alex does amazing work!!! Abrasions on perforated leather are extremely hard if not impossible to fix and Alex was able to fix it! Great work, great personality, and if he isn't able to fix it he has great pricing for panel replacements which are so much cheaper than buying a new seat.

Krystal Wolfe

From:

Like new! Best service! Alex is amazing..a true artist

Allison Oneil

From:

Alex Fachinello of Fibrenew is responsive, prompt, tries his absolute best and is shockingly honest!  Will use his services for all of our leather furniture from this day forward-
Strongly recommended to all that DOES NOT want to be ripped off nor scammed-

Ann C.

I am very pleased to report that Alex is a very competent man. His service met and exceeded my highest expectations. Prompt, courteous and very efficient service. Quality of work performed is superb.

Sydney Buck

From:

Thank you Alex for doing an awesome job on my Land Rover! Highly recommend Alex!!! Professional and great service

Gerri Kendall

From:

I have a 17 year old Hancock and Moore couch with a frame that is still in great shape. Alex came to my home and provided his expert opinion on the condition of the couch and told me the leather was such that it was a prime candidate for the FibreNew process. Boy was he spot on!

It is a sofa decorated with nailheads. Alex had recommended that we dye the nailheads the same color as the sofa or pay a premium to have all of the nailheads removed, dyed, and nailheads put back on. Once again, he gave excellent advice and saved us money! My husband and I are very pleased with the results!

He and his crew left the work area immaculate!

If you have furniture in your home that is loved by your family but needs a cosmetic boost, I strongly recommend Alex/FibreNew.

Barbara Kaniut

From:

Great job...could not have turned out any better. Looks like new! I will certainly come back to you for any additional work! Thank you, Mike

Michael, Long Beach , Ca.

We're so glad we found Alex! We love our leather furniture so decided to dye rather than replace each one. We immediately found Alex to be an honest, friendly, hard-working technician who aims to please his client. Alex researches and confers with leaders in his industry if he feels a need to discuss techniques. He offers a mobile service for home convenience, carefully keeping a clean work area. He is prompt and notified me when he was on his way. You won't be disappointed with his integrity, or effort to provide great service.

M. Emery

From:

Alex did an awesome job restoring our reclining chair despite my doubts. He saved my favorite chair from the dump! I would highly recommend Alex to anyone in need of leather restoration work.

Steve Cienfuegos

From:

Alex did an amazing job on the steering wheel of my car. He made the right color and it looks great now. He also cleaned and protected the seats. You don’t see it’s dirt until he cleans it. I highly recommend his services.

Haila J.

From:

These people were very honest and hard working. They did an excellent job on my leather sofa, and I am thrilled with their work.

Kenette M

From:

Alex did a fantastic job on my car’s interior leather. It had the normal wear and tear of grandchildren’s feet and car seats and hauling stuff in the car for 4 years and he got every single mark off of the leather and it looks brand new! He took pictures of the before and after and the seats are 3 shades lighter, back to their original color. I couldn’t be happier.

kelly serrano

Alex came to my place, worked tirelessly to heat the color perfect, and made my interior look like it just came off the showroom floor! Far exceeded my expectations. He is a super nice guy and took extra time to make it perfect. What a great job!!

Kevin Smith

From:

Fibrenew was referred to us by our couch manufacturer. We have a 10 year old tan leather sectional that after lots of use had discolored in an area and had scratches. We reached out to Alex and he promptly responded and scheduled an appointment. The entire sectional looks brand new after the work that Alex did. You can’t see the discoloration or scratches at all. He also cleaned the entire couch. We are thrilled to be able to have a couch we love have new life breathed into it. This was the far less expensive than replacing. If you have any doubts look at the before and after photos of his work. He is a magician. Their skill and workmanship are excellent. We are very pleased!

Colette Parsons

We can’t even tell where the discoloration and scratches were on our leather sectional. Alex did an amazing job restoring our 10 year old sectional to an almost new condition. He was extremely professional, knowledgeable and pleasant to deal with. We highly recommend!

Colette Parsons

From:

Alex showed up on time for the estimate and then agreed to do the work that same day for a more-than-fair price based on amazing quality of work (repaired leather seats and steering wheel, and re-painted dash and glove box areas that had peeled on my 15 year old vehicle). I recommend him and his thorough application of his great products without any reservation.

Robert and Erlene A

From:

I was somewhat skeptical about the success of this repair but the end result was far above my expectations and for a reasonable cost. We will most certainly use this company in the future.

Graham Mitchell

From:

Wow! That's amazing! I literally can tell where the repair was done. Great job!
