Furniture Reupholstery
This process can involve a complete strip down and re-build if necessary, using modern and traditional materials, or a facelift recovering the original fabric with new.
If a piece of furniture has a sound frame and is appreciated for its comfort and style, there is no need to replace it, instead have the item reupholstered. It can be significantly cheaper than replacing with new, especially for quality brands of furniture such as G-Plan, Ercol, Minty, and Parker Knoll, you already know that it fits your home and is comfortable.
It is more environmentally friendly than buying new and is far less effort as we come to you! Your furniture will not go to waste and end up in landfill. We offer a collection and delivery service so you will not have to lift a finger. Our network of leading fabric suppliers allows us to offer an extensive range of high quality and durable fabrics all tailor made to your requirements.

The process

Step 1 Strip down
We will carefully strip down your furniture and remove all original fabric.
Step 2 Frame inspection and repair
The frame will be inspected and the necessary repairs will be carried out; joints will be tightened, dowelled, glued or screwed depending on what is required.
Step 3 Springs and webbing
Once we are happy with the frame, work will begin on the springs and webbing. Any springs and webbing that need replacing will be replaced.
Step 4 Rebuild
We will then begin to build the layers back up. Padding and stuffing is checked and replaced where required.
Step 5 Cutting and sewing
Finally, with a frame and padding restored your chosen fabric is measured and cut and sewn to shape.
Step 6 Upholstery
The fabric outer shell is sewn together and fixed to the frame using either traditional or modern methods of upholstery depending on your preference.
Step 7 Cushions
Finally your chosen cushion interiors or original cushions are fitted into the cushion covers.Finished Furniture

Absolutely excellent — picked up sofa on date agreed, returned within ten days and it really does look like a new piece of furniture. Polite, efficient service and a really professional product. Delighted.
Excellent work for the second time — furniture is transformed. Great variety of fabric to choose from. Nice to work with. Timeliness/reliability issue was due to lockdown complications — other than that, all communication and reliability was good. Have already sent another piece to be re-done and recommended them to a family member.
Excellent job. Collection and delivery men very cheerful and helpful. The work was exactly as requested, and am delighted with the result.
Very happy with all aspects of the service we received. Very courteous and friendly staff. Delighted with my newly covered chairs
Absolutely fantastic, I would thoroughly recommend this company. Lovely workforce who give expert advice, kept me informed and did a fantastc job. I am very pleased with the work caried out and in a great timescale.
I inherited the chaiselongue from my mother who unfortunately made a few non authentic changes. Asnew called a few times to explain what was done to the item previously and to check how I wanted it restored. I wanted it back to the original style and am really pleased with the result. Great service all round from first enquiries to execution. I can highly recommend them!
Brilliant end result. There was a long waiting list, but once the chair was collected it only took a week. Very polite on the phone and in person. I found the assistance in picking a new fabric very useful and also nice delivery people. It’s expensive but the craftmanship is superb and the chair has sentimental value to me so certainly worth it.
I cannot commend the quality of work too highly — what they have done is little short of a work of art for detailed pattern-matching, painstaking effort to erase years of scratches and dents to the woodwork and astonishing improvement of comfort. I was also impressed by the clear commitment they showed to doing the best for the chairs as well as for me! From my first exploratory visit to the workshop to final delivery to my home, this was a good experience! I now have two beautiful chairs for less than the price of one.…
I have used Asnew for many years for re upholstering. The quality of their work is excellent, and this latest service was no exception. Apart from the work itself, they are a pleasure to deal with, always prompt with collection and return of furniture, and friendly and helpful on the telephone.
Asnew have done a perfect job on bringing this old sofa back for another generation. From choosing the fabric and all communications to collection and delivery they have been professional and pleasant to deal with. And now I have a fabulous ‘new’ sofa, that was well worth the cost. Thank you Asnew — perhaps see you again!
