Questions we get asked

Frequently asked questions.

Anything else, ring the workshop on 01443 815525 or message WhatsApp.

Is it worth restoring rather than replacing?

Usually, yes. Older furniture is often better made than modern replacements, restoration costs less than buying new for quality pieces, and you keep the fit, comfort and sentimental value of the original.

Can you repair leather?

Yes. Tears, scuffs, colour loss, re-dyeing, panel replacement and re-antiquing are all part of our leather service.

Do you collect and deliver?

We do, across South Wales, and loan furniture is available for larger jobs so you are not left without a seat.
