The Handbag Restoration Company Reviews 

Clare had cleaned and repaired two bags for me and I had a leather jacket with woollen decorations on that I didn’t like. She successfully removed them and repaired the leather underneath to an unbelievable standard. My bags and my jacket are like new. I highly recommend her.

A huge thank you to Clare and the team for restoring my lovely Bayswater Tessie Tote - looks like new and can't wait to use her again. Fabulous service beginning to end. Recommend recommend recommend!

Clare renovated my very sorry for itself Mulberry Bayswater. It has a new lease of life, the dreaded exposed piping has been fixed and you would never have known they were an issue.
I was kept up to date, the bad was back ahead of schedule and was packaged like a lovely gift.
I highly recommend Clare and the team.

Excellent service and they restored my bag way ahead of schedule, providing a professional repair and clean. Very pleased indeed.

Clare took on quite a task with my much loved (and used daily) Mulberry Poppy Hobo. The colour had faded, large creases had formed in the leather, the inside of the handle had collapsed and it was showing its age - and then some!

To say she has performed a miracle would be an understatement. What has been returned to me is a beautifully, and lovingly, restored bag. Pristine, practically crease free, with a newly restored handle and a stunning, all-over colour. I can't praise her work highly enough. She has done an outstanding job and I am immensely grateful for the many hours of work, she undoubtedly put in, to give my adored bag many more years of life.

Bag is like new, restored to perfection.
Was told everything that was happening with bag and kept updated regularly. Quicker turnaround than I anticipated. Bag was cleaned, leather and fastenings repaired.
Can’t wait to use again. Would highly recommend using.

Excellent service and communication from Clare
They restored my much loved Mulberry and I can happily use it again
I highly recommend
Again thank you x

Sent a Chanel boy bag I bought preloved to have the corners repaired & cleaned. They did a great job and the bag returned looking brand new and you’d never know it had been repaired from looking at it. So happy with the service provided, I recommend them to everyone

Ease of service even collection and delivery from the lovely shop, I purchased bag from, who also recommended Clare as they also use Clares services, I wish I had her details before for previous handbags, but I have them now! can't recommend enough so happy straps restored beautifully cant wait to use.
Thankyou Clare 💓

Following the second time of using THRC I would highly recommend without hesitation, Clare has such a talent, do not be put off about completion times its well worth the wait ☺️

Absolutely unreal precision and talent. My Mulberry was slashed in several places and after sending it to the handbag restoration company, it’s barely even noticeable. Outstanding and highly recommended.

A fabulous alteration !! Expertly done with attention to my personal needs for a safe return !!
Thanks Clare and team

I have used Clare’s expertise several times over the years and everything she has worked on has surpassed my expectations. Such amazing craftsmanship and detail ! Without a doubt I’d recommend The Handbag Restoration, it’s 5 stars from me.

The Handbag Restoration team are truly amazing!! Their skill, attention to detail, competitive pricing and friendly service are second to none.
The results speak for themselves - every restoration is meticulously carried out.

The whole process was very straightforward and Clare made everything completely clear to me, from initial quote to final restoration pictures. My beautiful, well-loved leather bag was returned to me, good as new, having been cleaned, the colour restored and the handle reattached, well within the timeframe proposed. I cannot fault THRC and cannot recommend them highly enough. I've been putting off getting my bag fixed for about 18 months, mainly because I'd put it away and I kept forgetting about it. I'm so glad I trusted THRC with this job.

Clare has been absolutely wonderful throughout the process of restoring my Mulberry Cara backpack. I had the front panel dyed due to colour loss - it was a tricky restoration for her as there are so many different tones in the oxblood leather. She really has done a fantastic job - you can barely tell it’s been dyed at all, and the colour match is super. She was extremely professional and helpful throughout and sent me loads of photos to make sure I was happy at each stage. She even waited until we had some good weather to complete the project so she could check the colour and tonality of the dyed panel in bright sunlight. So impressed - will be using again if I need any more work done on my bags. Small business at its best. Thank you Clare! 😊❤️

After reading the reviews I decided too send my pink Chanel too THRC and honestly I can not recommend them enough! From start to finish the whole service was amazing! Great communication, safe tracking , and the results were better than I ever could of imagined. If you have any designer handbags and are wondering where you should take it too be fixed up this is the company!

Will 100% use again

Thank you so much :)

I was lucky enough to receive a Coach handbag as a gift- only thing stopping me using it was the length of the strap. (I’m a bit of a liability with handbags I have to carry as I’ll put them down and not pick them up again.) So I asked if a cross body strap could be made for it. The result was amazing! The bag looks like it came with it - perfect match of colour and texture, using the existing buckles and hardware, the work(wo)manship is exquisite! I’ve not stopped using the bag since I picked it up and I’m delighted with it. Look at the photos of the before and after bags online and I defy you not to be impressed. This woman is a magician!!

I was recommended THRC via some luxury groups on Facebook and I’m so glad I used their services. I sent over 2 bags for repairs and deep cleans and I’m over the moon with them upon return. Feels like I have brand new bags. Highly recommend.

I sent my Mulberry Lily bag over to Clare to extend the strap and have just received it back even quicker than expected. Love the new crossbody strap, thanks again!
