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.

Lovely foot stool/ottoman

Excellent service from start to finish. Very helpful advice as to what would be the best design. Didn't want visible castors but wanted to move footstool easily so Derek suggested using the castors hidden behind light oak feet which looks and works really well. Cannot fault workmanship and I am really pleased with it. Style matches my existing sofa perfectly. They are very professional and helpful and nothing is too much trouble. Will definitely be using them again in the near future.

Millie wanted us to supply a new box storage ottoman with lift up lid fitted with hinges , to match her existing suite We supplied to special order light oak corner feet to hide the castors in the same style as her suite . We also managed to get the same fabric to match the original, the finished box ottoman was then sprayed with anti stain protection and delivered free of charge as you can see by Millie's review she was very pleased with the finished product, thank you for an excellent review.
