Before and After

We transformed a leather chair and sofa by adding a coordinating fabric seat cushion and a scatter cushion. The difference is truly remarkable! Our skilled craftsmen can breathe new life into your furniture too. Don’t settle for outdated or worn-out pieces, let us give them a fresh and stylish look. Contact us with your ideas.

1960s Sofa

We had the pleasure of working on a 1960s sofa that was inherited by our customer from his grandmother. We re-made the seat cushions with new foams and gave it a fresh new look by changing the original stretchy orange fabric to a nice cream Ross Fabrics Aquaclean. It’s amazing how a simple change in colour can make such a big difference! The cream fabric makes a beautiful contrast against the historic sofa and gives it a stylish and modern look. We love being a part of preserving family heirlooms like this one.

Loose Cover Sofa

We made a looses cover for the body and cushions for this beautifully dimensioned large sofa.

The sofa design is a country house oversized sofa with a rolling soft back and arms. Our customer provided the print fabric from Linwood Fabrics. This is a lovely Country House sofa to keep forever.

We reupholstered this delightful Duresta chair in the customer’s own fabric from a village near Whitby.

Duresta Sofa

Sofa Pair

Sofa pair. Upholstered in a coordinating fabric by Porter & Stone, P&S. This is a new fabric called Appledore.

Loose Covers

This is a delightful sofa, a two-seater sofa we custom made a set of loose covers using the customer’s own fabric.

Knoll Sofa

A nice example of a modern knole style sofa in Linwood Omega velvet print. The black sofa is already in place. We added new large scatter cushions in the Omega print to complement the newly upholstered sofa.

When your living room looks like this, would you ever go out?

Information: The original Knole Settee (also known as the Knole Sofa) is a couch chair that was made in the 17th century, probably around 1640. It is housed at ‘Knole’ in Kent, a house owned by the Sackville-West family since 1605 but now in the care of the National Trust.

Chesterfield Sofa

National Service | A classic Chesterfield sofa reupholstered in customers’ own provided fabric. The fabric is a delightful cream velvet with a rather lovely wacky patterned fabric for the seat cushions. Heading back to Gloucester soon – Customer collecting. A pleasure to work with.

Bespoke ‘Made To Fit’ Sofa

We handmade a bespoke corner sofa to fit the exact space in this room. Fabric is a Linwood Omega Velvet, colour teal. We added soft fibre back cushions along with foam seat cushions in a soft grade with a fibre top.
Handmade sofas our speciality as well as reupholstery repairs.

Loose Cover Sofa

This is a nice two-seater sofa originally with loose covers. We suggested the sofa would look smarter reupholstered fixed. This way we can achieve a more tailored fit.

The fabric is Ross Aquaclean.

Here is a photo kindly provided by our customer showing the ‘Loose Cover Sofa’ back in its home.

Large Sofa

In a lovely blue fabric, this is a unique style sofa we reupholstered. Seen here just delivered to our customers home.

The curved detailed lines are really sharp on this fantastic sofa, we made arm caps for practice reasons as this soft will be used daily and the addition of the large scatter cushions really sets it off.

It’s a particularly large sofa that the customer has owned for years. The lady loved it could not find a replacement, therefore, had this one restored and reupholstered in Linwood Fabrics ‘Forget Me Not’ fabric which is discontinued now. We made the rather fine looking scatter cushions using the customer supplied fabric. Another one I want to take home 🙂

A Modern Take on a Chesterfield Sofa.

I recognised this sofa as soon as I saw it. Originally sold through Barker and Stonehouse furniture shop back in the 1980s. It’s a quality piece of classic furniture, basically a relaxed oversized Chesterfields sofa without the deep buttons. Originally retailed in a Kilim fabric that was slightly rough to the touch, a bit like a Kilim rug, they were super cool, stylish, massive and expensive.

We have reupholstered at least two in the last year, therefore, we know the quality of the frame. This example, our customer purchased for £50 🙂 Now it looks like a few thousand pounds. Stunning.

Sofa Set In Grey Ross Fabric

How lovely it was to come down this a.m and see her sitting in the place she had occupied since 1970. We are quite overwhelmed. An absolutely incredible transformation. Barry’s experience is second to none. The frame adjustments have given a new comfort and her new dress is stunning. Jo from our first meeting, I knew we were in good hands. Your warmth and lovely manner is very special. Thank you.
