Yes the work carries a guaranteeExact details to be confirmed

Reupholstery means stripping the seat and replacing the original material on it so the new material becomes part of the seat A cover is cut to the seat and fitted over the original upholstery without removing it Reupholstery lasts longer and looks closer to factory; covers are faster cost less and protect what is underneath

Yes and it is one of the most common requests You can change the colour entirely or run two colours with contrast stitching

Yes We can work on a single seat or one specific part such as the steering wheel or the dashboard without touching the rest of the interior

It describes the standard of finish not who does the work: panels that follow the original seat lines even stitching cleanly closed edges and a material close to the factory feel We are an independent shop not a dealership and not authorised by one The term refers to the result not to us

A clean consistent interior makes a better impression at viewing particularly if the original was torn or worn through What matters is that the work reads as close to factory rather than conspicuously different

Two things matter most: cut direct sun exposure with a windscreen shade and clean regularly with a product made for leather General-purpose cleaners strip the oils out and lead to cracking

Yes The film is designed to come off without marking the paint underneath That is the whole point of it The factory paint stays original and that is the single biggest factor in resale value

Tinting is permitted within specific legal limits and we fit inside those limits Going beyond them means a fine and then removal of the film paying twice for something that will not stay on the car

Yes and that is why it sits alongside our core work UV and heat are exactly what crack a dashboard fade leather and break down the adhesive behind a headliner Reducing both extends the life of the whole interior which is why we often suggest it together with restoration work

Yes Our team includes fluent English speakers and we have worked with American and European customers across the Eastern Province Explain what you need in English by phone on WhatsApp or in the shop Nothing gets lost in translation

Cash Mada Visa Mastercard American Express UnionPay and NFC payments If you are new to the Kingdom: Mada is the local debit network and most cards issued by Saudi banks run on it

Yes A written three-year guarantee covering stitching fitting and tension Ask for it at handover rather than relying on a verbal assurance; that applies to any shop not just ours

A worn or torn interior is one of the first things a buyer notices and it drags the price down more than the repair costs What matters is that the work reads as close to factory rather than obviously redone That is exactly what our dealer-standard option is for If you are selling within a year or two that is usually the specification to ask for
