Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars18 January 2021
“Lucie initially painted two items for my entrance hall. Dark wood and now transformed to silver/grey. They looked so good that I decided to have a further three items painted. The quality of her work is superb and she keeps you informed throughout the entire process. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone wanting to restore any furniture. Trisha K (Maidenhead)”

Upholster3
Upholsterers in Guildford, Surrey
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars21 December 2020
“we decided to have our old dining room chairs reupholstered rather than replace them. The girls at Upholster 3 did an amazing job! We also wanted the seats to be slightly higher and better cushioned so they added cushion to each. They are perfect and the lighter fabric we chose is a great match for our dining room. Would highly recommend. Thanks girls.”
Deco Upholstery
Upholsterers in Guildford, Surrey
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars21 June 2021
“Wanita knows her craft well and is priced fairly. She takes on all the work herself and one can tell it's a labour of love. While I was undecided on fabric, she spent ample amounts of time sharing swatches until we agreed on the best choice. On top of that she meticulously cleaned and stained the frame at no additional cost. This is not a rush job sort of place, but if its a piece you care about she will go above and beyond putting forth time and attention.”

Upcycling has become more and more popular lately, as the fashion for retro and rustic furniture has returned, but doing it yourself can cause all sorts of mishaps, so professional furniture restoration specialists should be called in to handle the job properly, especially if the piece of furniture you’re dealing with is particularly tricky. Upholsterers in Guildford are your saving grace when it comes to refreshing your furniture or soft furnishings. It’s true that when redesigning or redecorating a home, it’s tempting to throw everything out and start again with all-new furniture and decor. But this requires a big budget and a ruthless attitude, which may not necessarily be needed with all redesigns, so instead, consider hiring Guildford furniture upholsterers to reupholster, repair, restore or redesign some key pieces for you.

You’d be surprised at the magic furniture upholsterers can do to an old piece of soft furnishing; rips can be mended, worn fabric refreshed and extra elements added, at a lower price than buying brand new. You can ask for reupholstery or furniture restoration of the item, to match it as closely as possible to its former glory or ask for something completely different to match your redesign. Trims, piping and fringing can be added for additional flourishes, new fabric patterns chosen, extra padding added, chair backs or headboards buttoned and new sofa or duvet covers stitched.

If you’re not quite sure what to do with your old furniture, try taking it to furniture furniture restoration specialists in Guildford to ask for their advice. Established upholstery services will be able to handle all sorts of fabric upholstery and reupholstery, including leather upholstery, and recommend the fabric that will work with your furniture and design theme. They will also be able to tell you about the durability of the fabric they will use and how to look after your re-upholstered item.
