Hey I'm wondering if anyone knows anyone who can repair furniture? We've got 2 big 2 piece corner sofa's but the legs have given way on one and it needs repairing.... help!

Many thanks in advance :thumb:

They sell stainless steel furniture legs at HomePro. I bought some and installed them on a wood chest myself to raise it a few inches off the floor. All I needed was a drill and a few minutes as the (four) legs even came with screws included.
My brain is like an Internet browser; 12 tabs are open and 5 of them are not responding, there's a GIF playing in an endless loop,... and where is that annoying music coming from?

Go down soi 58 from the klong rd, last small shop on the right before the railway, there is an upholsterer there, maybe he can help. Used him a few months ago, and he did a brilliant job re-covering my furniture at Thai prices. Maybe he can do the repairs you are after, or has a contact can help you.

I used a guy in Khao Takiab. Coming out of Takiab and heading into Hua Hin his place is on the left at the beginning the Dual carriageway. His work was good and prices reasonable.

Do you mean SOI 56 which goes onto the traffic lights ?

If not my map only shows Soi 38 as the next Soi north.

My apologies if its 56. The soi that runs between the traffic lights at the klong and 7/11 on the main rd. Thought it was 58 ??

I didn't actually need to look any further than my own doorstep. Went to get a new sign made for the gate and the guy who makes them actually fixes furniture :) He fixed the sofa (after having to take it all apart) and the sliding mosquito door for a 1000B so all is well again.
