I specialise in furniture reupholstery, restoration and furniture repair either in the home or at my workshop. We are a family business and I have over 30 years experience as an upholsterer having made over 30,000 home visits repairing and restoring both antique and modern furniture such as Natuzzi, Knoll, Furnico, Vitra, Herman Miller, Multi York, Tetrad, Parker Knoll, Cintique, Collins & Hayes, Duresta, Derwent, Ercol, Minty and G Plan to name but a few. All of the examples on this website show work undertaken by myself, they are a small sample of some of the kinds of repairs that I have carried out over the years.

As the Green movement continues to change how we run our homes, furniture reupholstery in the UK is experiencing something of a resurgence. Reupholstery has become fashionable again and not just in the grand old houses looking to maintain their antique furniture. I believe good quality furniture deserves to be given a new lease of life. Reupholstery offers the opportunity to replace old and worn covers with new coverings of your choosing, to revitalise the cushioning and support and repair any problems to the structure that may have developed over time.
French Polishing is used as a general term for wood refinishing these days where protective finishes are applied to wood. A wood finish can protect wood from scratches, dirt, stains, moisture and wear. It can enhance the wood's natural beauty, colour, grain patterns and depth. French Polish or Shellac is one of many different types of finish that we can apply, quite often a lacquer may be more suitable for high wear items. We can guide you through the various options available, and suggest the most suitable to your needs.
It is often possible to repair damage to existing leather furniture. If fabric is damaged invariably replacement matching fabric is required and this is not always available. Leather repairs, however, can be carried out in various ways either by restoring and refinishing the existing panel(s) or in severe cases of damage I can machine in replacement leather panel. Below are before and after examples of repair work carried out on leather sofas and chairs in customer's homes. This leather chair of a bucket seat design was the favourite seat amongst a suite of furniture that had given over 15 years of service.
