With over twenty-five years in the upholstery business, I have been asked to upholster most things from tractor seats to deep buttoned Chesterfields and I find the challenge of completing every job to a high standard stimulating. I am an certificated member of the Guild of Traditional Upholsterers. The pictures on this page are typical examples of the kind of work I undertake. With many local regular customers I have built up a solid reputation for good work. |
Traditional upholstery work requires skill and patience. The various techniques which have been handed down over the years can not be changed and need to be learned in a methodical manner. Webbing, springing, stuffing, stitching, buttoning etc are essential techniques for the correct upholstering of an old chair or sofa. I employ Sue Madjinsky who has been working with me for nineteen years and recently took on Joe Hughes aged 19 as a trainee. Both have completed the traditional upholstery course run by the Nets Scheme. |
