From the day we contacted the above company to the completed work we were very impressed with the service we received. We were kept informed all the way about collection of furniture, repair progress up to the last day when the furniture was returned. It took less time than we had expected to complete the work. The chairs look amazing and are very comfortable again. Thank you, Derek for your kindness and professionalism. We certainly will recommend Dee Cee Upholstery to our friends and family.

I had 4 large L shaped cushion's refilled and a zip repair. Derek gave me good advice and was very helpful. Was quoted they would be ready in 2 weeks, but were ready in one. Derek delivered cushions on his way home, fitted them on my sofa and made sure I was happy. I highly recommend Dee Cee Upholstery. Thank you so much Derek and Karen

At Dee Cee Upholstery & interiors no job is too small, the 4 x cushion interiors had reached there 'sell by date ' and were in desperate need to be replaced . After discussing the different options our customer took our advice and went for the best quality foam interiors with a thick polyester wrap for extra comfort . As our customer stated her sofas are as good as new now and at the fraction of the cost of replacements.

Hi Rowena ,it is nice to hear that you found us 'extremely helpful' as we always try to be. We had a remnant of fabric from our huge selection in our remnant room that was just perfect for the job in hand .
Convert pine headboard

My 1980's pine bed needed a revamp so I took the headboard to Derek to be upholstered. He cut the rounded headboard into a rectangle and upholstered it in a grey linen fabric. A lot of discussion went into exactly how he would do it and what I wanted. Everything was done to schedule and communication was excellent. Derek was very helpful and professional throughout. I am delighted with the result.

Thankyou for your review , your old pine headboard was looking dated and you wanted to modernise it, after discussing your requirements . We decided the best way to do the headboard was to trim the curved top edge and cut off the end finials to make it straight along the top edge . Next we applied a layer of fire retardant upholstery foam and covered it with a grey linen fabric, we also sprayed the finished headboard with anti stain protection to help it to keep it clean.

Nice job of re-upholstering a piano stool in leather. Unfortunately one of the buttons became loose. We dropped it back and they kindly dropped the stool back to our house the very same day! Excellent service!

Armchairs back to life

My two 60s armchairs looked ready for the tip but Dee Cee took on the daunting task of refurbishing my chairs. They did an absolutely amazing job. I didn’t recognise the chairs when the were delivered, well under the time they estimated. I cannot speak highly enough of Dee Cee. All the staff were courteous and friendly and I have no hesitation recommending them. I will now have many more years enjoying my brand new chairs. Well done Dee Cee.

We were called in to " salvage " 2 x 1960 's arm chairs that had their original fabric on them . Our customer chose a hard wearing chenille for us to re-upholster the chairs in , the chairs were in need of complete re-upholstering i.e. stripping back to the base frame and applying replacement filing as required.
