Our Services

RECOVER: We offer a full reupholstery service supporting a sustainable approach to the future of home furniture. We will transform your own much-loved sofas and chairs to avoid contributing to 670,000 tonnes of furniture waste every year (Wrap Report).

It is always worth considering reupholstery or a recover if it has good bones, if you’re eco-conscious, if you have a family heirloom, or it is a valuable antique. You can see some of our past work for customers below.

At Dandelion Designs we specialise in modernising traditionally upholstered pieces, but also revive all types of modern furniture. Having experience in the trade since 1989, Carl is a skilled artisan upholsterer.

The information below is for guidance only as the total cost will vary depending on the style, shape, size, and complexity of your furniture. We have provided a guide for labour and material costs for the most popular items requested, and also an estimate of the fabric requirements for each piece.

If you would prefer something a little more unusual, particularly for an accent piece, we have a list of British textile designers who specialise in innovative and bespoke fabrics which we would be happy to share.

SOURCE AND RECOVER: Alternatively, if you would like us to source an accent piece to redesign for you and recover in your own choice of fabric, we would be more than happy to help. Contact us to see what could be possible.
