Repair work to my Double seated leather Sofa Part one....
Customer Service
Quality
Value
Excepted quotation for the arm rest to be stripped down and upgraded to a better quality foam. The Sofa seat; which was not straight forward stripped down with new materials, and upgraded foam for a firmer seat. This probably was one of those annoying small jobs ,but Dee Cee were more than up for the challenge, and happy to do the job. I was given the quotation which was more than expected, but in life you get what you pay for, and looking into the back ground of Dee Cee, felt it was money well spent. We collected my part Sofa today after being informed the work was complete and ready for collection. Absolutely spot on workmanship, and service, with, "Honesty", as the repair didn't take as long as first thought. The excepted quotation was then discounted accordingly... WOW....what a company...........You have saved me buying a new Sofa.... The other side to be done in the New year... Thank you. A very grateful Steve Matthews

The arm rest and seat needed to be stripped down to the frame and re-upholstered and refit the existing leather which was in good condition . This job was very labour intensive as the seat foam was made up in different density's and layers of fire retardant foam which meets the 1988 fire regulations .

Re-upholster Parker Knoll chair
Customer Service
Quality
Value
We had a Parker Knoll fireside chair which was left to us by an elderly neighbour which had previously been re-upholstered. It was looking tired so we visited Dee Cee to view samples. Derek had previously re-upholstered a foot stool so we chose a co-ordinating fabric. We also had the legs stripped and re- polished, seat cushion and springing replaced. The chair has just returned and the workmanship is first class and the chair is as good as new, pattern matching is perfect. A top quality job.

Our customer from Southampton chose a check fabric which needed to be pattern matched. The queen Anne legs where stripped and repolished to a much lighter finish at the request of our customers ,to blend in with their existing furniture in their lounge

Dee Cee carried out work re-padding my leather sofa back cushions. He quoted me mid-summer and held his price when I eventually dropped them off to him in October. I could'nt be more pleased with the workmanship and friendly service that I received, and would both recommend, and use them again.

The back cushions just needed some extra fire retardant polyester fiberfill fitted into the existing interior cases instead of replacement interiors Whilst it was only a small job ,if it's important to our customers it's important to us . As a business it's great to get positive feed back posted on The Which Trusted Traders review website. At present we have 349 excellent reviews

My much-loved sofa, library chairs, and dining chairs were old, tired, and unattractive. The excellent work done has exceeded my expectations. I am so delighted with the results and the improvement in the look of the room. Everyone was so helpful and friendly I can't thank them enough. What a brilliant job - thank you!

Dining Chairs

Just had our 6 dining chair seats recovered, so we decided to get them “done” professionally, so knowing Dee Cee was local with parking available, I decided to visit them, from the time I entered the quaint shop I felt at ease, Mr Dee Cee was very friendly and helpful and seemed genuinely interested in making sure that what I chose was right for our particular chairs. The choice of material available was endless and the cost made very reasonable. The chairs were completed earlier that promised and when I collected them I was amazed at the quality and the difference a high class craftsman can make, well worth the visit and our chairs now look stunning. I would certainly recommend them to all my friends. Well done to all at Dee Cee.

Our customer from Sholing was recommended to us, she had 6 reproduction dining chair seats which were over 30 years old and needed to stripped to the bare frame and be completely re-upholstered as opposed to just being recovered, the latest fire retardant foam was used to comply with the 1988 fire regulations. The job was done in 2 stages for convenience. the fabric selected from our remnant room had the benefit of inherent anti stain protection
work to settee cushions
Customer Service

I have used this company for many years and it is the first port of call for me. New back cushions were needed for my settee. A different, but equally acceptable (and cheaper method) of upgrading the cushions was suggested and accepted. The work was done quickly and to a high standard. I am delighted with the result.

Our customer originally came to our showroom in Portswood for replacement back cushion interiors which would of cost in the region of £ 350.00 including vat We were able to add extra fire retardant polyester wadding to the existing cushion interiors ,with a saving of £ 230.00 We always try and give our customers the most cost effective advice which makes them comfortable in more ways than one

Dave and Jean brought a small fully upholstered miniature Childs arm chair which is a family heirloom . We were asked if it could be re-upholstered in time for their grandchild's first birthday party . We pulled all the stops out to make this possible and we are pleased that they would recommend us to any body .

I have used this company twice in the past, so when l needed our dining chairs reupholstered we asked them to do the job. As before they were very helpful and knowledgeable about what needed to be done, and as promised the dining chairs were done and delivered back to our house the very next day and at the exact price quoted. Thank you Dee Cee will use you again. ( Would recommend this company to anyone)

We have just had six dining room chairs recovered , we thought we would use a small independent local upholsterer they are literally at the bottom of our road . We are so happy with the work they have done it took just three days to complete the work to an excellent standard, the price was very good and they were very friendly and helpful we would definitely use them again Thank you .
