Dee Cee Upholstery re-covered the entirety of my vintage 60s three seater sofa, and I am beyond delighted with the result. I was in the middle of a stressful housemove, when I took the opportunity to get it re-upholstered, and they were so accomodating, picking the sofa up before we moved and delivering it once we were in our new home. They are a warm, friendly, family-ran company (including an adorable King Charles Spaniel!), who provide excellent service and very high-quality work. Highly recommended!

Hi Sam , it was a real pleasure to renovate and re-upholster your 1960's sofa ( which is a real collectors item ) . The fact that you were as passionate about it as we are , (we could not wait to restore it to it's former glory ) . Also the fabric you chose , was just perfect for the style and era and we are glad it has taken pride of place and it fits your new home . Thanks' for your review , I am afraid Rio does not come with your sofa !

Everyone at Dee Cee Upholstery was professional but also gave a friendly customer service. There was a good choice of materials and plenty of time allowed to choose something or bring your own. The work carried out was excellent, thought put into pattern position, completed in good time, arrangements for delivery good and price reasonable.

Hi Margaret your antique piano stool had obviously been well used and cherished for many years . The paisley patterned chenille was the perfect choice ,we were able to centralise the pattern to your satisfaction . We also had to repair the base framework and to finish the job the top was trimmed with gimp ( braid ). Thank you for your continued business and taking the time to send in your review .

We had a nest of tables that were badly water marked. Excellent firm to deal with, pleasant and efficient service and the tables have now been returned fully restored, looking as new. Delighted with the result.

Hi Margery , thank you for your review , you are right about your nest of table's they were in need of some T.L.C. Luckily the water damage did not damage the teak veneer , now that they are fully restored the hard wearing surface will last for many years to come

We had two new sofa base cushions to replace very old ones. The people in this shop were extremely helpful and understood exactly what kind of product would be best. The price quoted was very reasonable and the order process was easy and seamless. The cushions were ready in less than two weeks and the owner of the shop even drove to our house to pick up the old cushions and replace with the new ones. I did not know this kind of personal service existed nowadays! Highly recommended and we would definitely use again. A fabulous small business!

From the moment I enquired about possible re-upholstering some inherited furniture as well as my 20 year old sofas, I was well advised and helped to make the right decisions and choices. Dee Cee's were very efficient and helpful throughout and competitive with their pricing. The two occasional chairs have had new life put into them and my sofas, have been much admired by family and friends! a traditional business with high standards - fully recommend.

I have been very pleased with the re-upholstery work completed on 2 inherited, traditional occasional chairs and 2 sofas. After the initial helpful advice, discussions and quotes, Dee Cee Upholstery were very efficient and the quality of work was of a very high standard. The cost of reupholstery was competitive, due to the original quality of the sofas, when compared to modern day equivalents. Derek and his team were friendly,kept in good contact and lent us chairs when the sofas were in their workshop.I have already recommended Dee Cee Upholstery to family and friends who have admired the results.The chairs and sofas look very good and will now be enjoyed and last for many more years to come.

I had four dining chairs re-upholstered by this company. From the first contact they were very helpful and professional. The work was completed quickly, to a high standard, and the cost was as initially quoted.

Thank you for your comments the chairs were as " new " when we delivered them back to you . Because of the hard wearing fabric you have chosen they will last for many years to come kind regards Derek Caplen ( F.A.M.U. ) Fellow Of The Association Of Master Upholsterers .

We had our suite recovered. They came and gave us an estimate and allowed us to bring sample books home to choose our fabric. The suite was collected on the date they said and delivered back at the arranged date. We are very happy with the result and would recommend the company to others. They also lent us 2 chairs while they did the work.
