Bring those beloved furniture pieces back to life with our antique furniture restoration services.
We can assist with various repair jobs for your antique furniture including holes, tears, cushion and foam repairs and more.

Should you upholster your antique furniture?

The simple answer Yes. We believe antique, vintage or mid-century furniture pieces deserve to be given a new lease of life from time-to-time, and transformed into something truly unique that you won’t find anywhere on the market.

Antique furniture upholstery is an easy and cost-effective solution to buying new furniture. Forget spending several 100’s on a new sofa set when you can re-invent that special chair you love into something that’s bespoke to you and your home.

Not only will you be saving waste by saving your antique furniture from landfill, you’ll also be helping to preserve your furniture. Traditionally antique and vintage pieces are passed down through family, and we hope your antique furniture item is one you’ll be happy to share with the generations to come.

Designer Workshop has very skilled craftspeople. I don't usually offer to do a review, but more people should know about this upholsterers in New Basford, Nottingham. The photos show how beautiful this job is - how they got the fabric horizantal and vertical in the right places, with accurate and well tensioned pleating and buttons, too. Good value, collection and delivery, a pleasure to do business with. Thank you, Tan & team.
