About Us

Total Leather Care is a locally-grown family business based in Houston, Texas. Along with our sister company, Leather Only, we have been providing bespoke leather maintenance and restoration services for nearly three decades. As with many other craftsman-based industries, we have seen the supply of true masters of the craft dwindle over time. It is our desire to keep this skilled trade alive at least in our small corner of the world. As such, we take enormous pride in our work and undertake the challenges of each day with appreciation and humility - always striving for the highest quality of work along with the understanding and satisfaction of our customers.

We believe in a world of cherished objects, with the highest levels of craftsmanship and design, that deserve to be maintained and enjoyed generation after generation. Part of our mission is to provide a counterbalance to the world of fast fashion or disposable objects, to slow down and to fully appreciate the beauty of the items that we possess. We would like to help you care for your most loved possessions, so that they can bring joy for many years to come. We have put our experience, knowledge, and - most importantly of all - our heart into our products to reflect our values back into the world around us.

Our employees are the soul of our small business and together we form a single family. We celebrate the individual talents that each person brings to our team, because our workshop and products could never be the same without them. We are extremely proud to have multiple generations working alongside each other and transferring skills and sharing new technologies to ensure the success of the company in the years to come.

Total Leather Care is a result of our values, our goals, and our people. No matter the size or scale or your project, we are here to help restore life to the things that you love most. We are not a conglomeration mass-producing products for a profit; we are real people, with real leather that we love and want to last for generations.

From our Family to Yours,

The total Leather CAre Team

“How different everything is for the craftsman who transforms a part of the world with his own hands, who can see his work as emanating from his being and can step back at the end of a day or lifetime and point to an object — whether a square of canvas, a chair or a clay jug — and see it as a stable repository of his skills and an accurate record of his years.”

— Alain de Botton
