Re-Upholstery Work

With over sixteen years in the upholstery business, I have just about 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 have been accepted into the Guild of Traditional Upholsterers after submitting a photographic record. 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.

Before Work Commences

 
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 proper methodical manner. Webbing, springing, stuffing, stitching, buttoning etc are essential techniques for the correct upholstering of an old chair or sofa.
