I gave Bob this job was on the back of his first-rate reupholstery of a fireside arm chair: he did it so well that I immediately asked him to advise about another chair. He carries a wide range of fabric swatches and quickly understood what I was hoping for and narrowed the choices without being at all pushy. He quoted straight away and stuck to the agreed all-in price. Bob took the chair with him and returned it a week later, beautifully reupholstered. Highly recommended.

Reupholster fireside armchair chair
Posted 11 April
The upholstery was done very well and Bob's suggestions for bulking up the padding improved on what we'd asked for and they showed his experience and made for a much better result. An update or two during the weeks working on the chair would have taken this to 10/10. Bob collected and returned the chair and this was helpful as well.

Re-Upholstering Six Dining Chairs
Posted 10 March
Contacted Bob Gillett re upholstering six dining chairs and popped round, with chairs, that same day. I also asked him to sort out a number of the chairs which were a bit "rickety". Bob gave us a number of material sample books to browse through and, later that day, I emailed him with our choice of fabric. I also requested that the chair fabric be applied with Scotchguard.
Within seven days Bob called to say that the chairs were ready for collection. Additionally, he had also cleaned the woodwork.
Six chairs looking practically brand new and as sturdy as when they were new (some 40 years ago!

Re-upholstered dining room chairs
Posted 09 March
We had six dining room chairs re-holstered and are extremely pleased with the finished result. Bob gave us helpful advice on how to restore the frames of the chairs prior to them being recovered. We were able to take the sample book away to decide on colours and the work was completed to fit in with our timescale.

Re-upholstered dining chairs and ottoman
Posted 07 February
Bob did a fantastic job on re-covering an ottoman for which I already had the fabric. The quality of work was fantastic.
He also reupholstered 6 dining chairs for me and helped me to find a very close match to the fabric on my other chairs. He turned up on time for a meeting when he said he would, delivered when he said he would and gave me clear expectations as to the work he would do and the resultant pricing. Bob is polite and personable and it was an absolute pleasure to do business with him. would definitely use again and would heartily recommend.
