A personal speedy service from an established family firm
Customer Service
Quality
Value
After searching for several weeks for two recliner chairs, I found this established family firm which not only gave me an excellent bargain but I received the most personal and speedy service which surpassed all the high street stores I had tried. They took away my old furniture at no extra charge. I would not hesitate to recommend this firm to anyone.

Our customer who lives in West Wellow took advantage of our nearly half price offer on the showroom ex display rise and recline dual motor models . We delivered their chairs the following day and as stated took away their old sofa free of charge ( most other companies charge any thing up to £ 75.00 for this service . If the furniture is in reasonable condition we take it to Sue Ryder Charity shop to resell.
Two Parker Knoll chairs
Customer Service
Quality
Value
Our two chairs had once been very comfortable. They are over 50 years old and had been sat upon by us and bounced upon by the grandchildren. The springs on one chair were badly distorted and the upholstery had been scratched and worn by our now deceased cat. Dee Cee upholstery welcomed us to their premises with the required lockdown restrictions and showed us a great selection of fabrics. They advised us to consider deeper cushions, which we ordered. We were told about the likely time they could start the work and the length of time it would take. We took sample books home to compare colours and shades and were sent an invoice. The work was completed within budget. The chairs were collected from home and then delivered back after completion. They look really smart. Derek and the showroom staff were helpful. We were pleased to have the work undertaken and completed so promptly.

Angela and Frank had their Parker Knoll fire side chairs re-upholstered by us nearly 20 years ago . It is great to welcome them back to our business ,it shows that we are still that we are as good as we have always been.
Recover of Ercol Chair
Customer Service
Quality
Value
We inherited an Ercol chair which was in need of recovering. We contacted Dee Cee Upholstery as they were very local to us and have an excellent reputation. They collected the chair and completed the work within the agreed timescale. What particularly impressed us was not only the standard of work (which is superb) but the fact that they kept us informed of progress from the initial estimate, a discussion on the selection of materials and possible extras through to completion and delivery. We don’t have anything else to recover but if we did we would use them again without hesitation.

Their 1970s Ercol chair had to have the seat re-webbed and a replacement seat cushion supplied. We also made a small bench seat cushion to match.

We have a great reputation for our re-upholstery service which is equally matched by our very important after-sales service. We have won the Wow Award for excellent service and going " the extra mile " As a business when we have a customer service issue we take care of it as soon as possible, leaving our customer sitting comfortably.

Recovering of Suite

Excellent service from choosing the material until completion. Highly recommend this company. They couldn't have been more helpful. The Suite looks fabulous.

Your 1950s traditional pillow back and fully sprung 3 piece suite and box self piped pouffe, was certainly in need of re-upholstery and restoration . When it was previously recovered ,on stripping the suite out it had 2 lots of covers on it, in fact the pouffe had 3 covers under the the top = 4 in total. Sue and and her husband have retired and moved to Sandleheath near Fordingbridge from Cheshire to a pretty little cottage ,with low ceilings and narrow doors. We picked their furniture up from storage in Southampton, on delivery it proved very difficult to get it in to it's new home apart from being extremely heavy it fitted in with just a half inch to spare and after a lot of huffing and puffing we managed to get it in without damaging the newly painted door frame.
Another great job

This is the fourth job undertaken by Derek and his team so this review speaks for itself! We have had two very old armchairs, a settee, leather chesterfield and now a sofa bed. All this furniture has been given a new lease of life and unrecognisable. You would think they had come straight from Harrods. Derek and his team are very helpful and friendly. Not forgetting Karen who painstakingly helped me choose the leather for the chesterfield. We only had to wait just over a week and courtesy chairs were offered if needed. Thank you, Derek and your team for your amazing work.

I am very happy with this company's work. I asked them to completely clean and valet my sofa. When it was returned to me I could see a great difference and it looked new. The staff have always been polite and helpful. I felt at ease when they were in my house.

Mary whilst your job was not a big one ,if it is important to you it is important to us . After nearly 43 years in the upholstery business industry we have carried out re - upholstery of a single dining chair seat which has led to bigger jobs ,to the largest contract to strip down and re-upholster the seats of the top balcony of the Mayflower theatre in Southampton. Thank you for taking the time to post your review

Hi Lilian thank you for your review, when buying your your award winning rise and recline mobility healthcare chair ( recommended by Which? ) size is important . We are pleased that you took our advice on the size and that you also decided on a dual motor which makes the seat work independently to the back offering more personal comfort solutions
