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. You have peace of mind that I will personally carry out the work after providing you with the quotation. I am fully insured. The majority of repairs are carried out in the home and on the 1st visit.
Certain reupholstery and wood finishing tasks are carried out in my Buckinghamshire workshop. We are situated in the village of Grendon Underwood between Bicester and Aylesbury.

As the Green movement continues to change how we run our homes, furniture reupholstery in the UK is experiencing something of a resurgence.

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.

Leather colour loss can be the result of normal wear and tear.
Leather repairs offer a solution to damage caused to the finish by dye transfer from non colourfast clothes where the colour of the leather is stained by the dye from new blue jeans for example or by spillages of chemicals such as nail varnish and nail varnish remover, ink or hair products such as hairspray.
This can usually be remedied by cleaning, mixing a correct colour and applying a leather pigment and sealer to the affected area.
