Excellent on all counts, lovely people to work with and the upholstery was superb

I found Urban Upholstery online _ their web-site showed old furniture being lovely restored and old and new fabrics working magic.
I invited Andrea and Patrizia over to have look at my stuff and it was immediately apparent that they should take on the job, were definitely in
synch with what I wanted. I think the results are spectacular – what Andrea and Patrizia have done is recycled perfectly good, yet neglected furniture and exploited my own family history which gives the pieces an added sentimental value – with a contemporary twist.
Can’t wait to start my new life with all my reupholstered belongings…Thank you UU”

An amazing duo, these guys are always a massive help creating upholstrey ideas I have in mind, and are equally keen to restore old furniture I buy on eBay, or create a new piece from scratch.
I really recommend them!

"We took Andrea on what at first seems like an impossible road: re-upholster an old armchair with ..... African boubou fabric !!!! He was very sceptical at first and rightly so: African fabric is meant to be used for dresses not armchairs !!! But Andrea doesn’t give up and never says no to a challenge, we spent some very interesting hours together in the African shops in Hackney market and the result is absolutely amazing, not only our armchair has a totally new beautiful life ahead of him, but we made a friend in the process !!!"

Urban upholstery have worked on two chairs that we have taken to them now: a modern suede 'bucket' chair and a Regency "Spoon-back slipper' chair. The first was a complex stretching operation and we were extremely pleased with the result. The second, just completed, required complete re-upholstering and advice on fabric. The finished work was better than we could have expected...they take immense care with their work and are great to deal with - both pleasant and communicative. Highly recommended.

It was a pleasure working with Andrea and Patrizia. I had lovely vintage chairs with fabric completely worn through. Urban Upholstery beautifully restored the chairs with new fabric and foam, for a great price. It's as if we have brand new chairs for a bargain price!

"Andrea rebuilt an abandoned armchair (one of the first they'd emancipated from the streets
of Hackney), and Patrizia had off-cuts of some fairly grand fabric to hand.
The finished chair is a stand-out - exceptional craftsmanship, a good look, and a recycled East London pedigree to go with it.'

"Andrea & Patrizia spent loads of time with me helping with fabrics & talking about what could be done before deciding on a design. When I got the reupholstered sofa back & unwrapped it, It was just as I imagined except better because the quality & workmanship was fantastic. It is far superior to a new sofa & the design is completely unique"

Urban Upholstery changed a leather chesterfield chair into a stunning, textured wool armchair with colourful buttons indented. It looks amazing and it receives compliments from everyone who sees it. The quality of work was really high and they were great at advising on stylish options.

Our chair experience was so good that we recently returned to the shop to get a colourful storage bench with a cushioned top. The craftmanship was once again excellent and they were really easy to work with.

Used several times & always had excellent service - they help with sourcing the fabric and always ensure you're happy with what they propose before commencing work, and the finished product is always excellent. A pleasure.

 "This place is a real find and the two owners are totally tuned in to making fresh looking, great quality furniture. I took an old chair to be recovered and was hoping for some ideas. They gave me loads of help and advice and put up with all my indecision with great patience. The final result looked brilliant, was completely original, and had old-school quality and craftsmanship. It’s the kind of shop you think doesn't exist in London anymore. I'd certainly use them again no hesitation. "

Andrea is a genius! He crafted the most wonderful piece of bespoke seating for our home, a booth with quite complex cornering — and he couldn't have created a more beautiful result. We LOVE what Urban Upholstery have done for us, and the service was attentive, communicative and pleasant. If you're looking for beautiful, bespoke upholstery, Andrea & Patrizia are the talented craftspeople you're looking for :)

Andrea and Patrizia did an amazing job upholstering our chairs - we've had so many compliments. I love the fact that they rescue unloved and unwanted chairs and transform them into something special.

 Excellent work- precise, solid and sturdy Serious and good quality repair done on the wooden part of the furniture. Excellent advise on the quality and design of the fabric as well as the esthetic aspect of the piece. Always on time. I had several pieces done in the last 2 years and they all hold well.

"Patrizia has terrific and lateral ideas. Her understanding of shape, texture and colour impressed me. Her ideas are original. Together with the hands on skills of her partner, Andrea, they make a very talented team"
