Why choose local upholstery?
Choosing a local company for upholstery means faster site visits, collection and delivery options, and hands-on assessments — important for bespoke projects and commercial work. Hill Upholstery’s workshop in Fobbing allows us to serve towns across Essex with local knowledge of period furniture styles and modern fabrics.
Choosing fabrics and finishes
A vital part of any upholstery is choosing the right fabric. Hill Upholstery advises on contract-grade performance fabrics for hospitality projects and easy-clean or luxurious weaves for homes. When specifying upholstery, we help balance durability, maintenance and style to suit your family, pets or business needs.
What to expect — process for upholstery projects
The usual process for upholstery projects is simple: contact the workshop with photos and measurements for an initial quote; arrange collection or a home visit; select fabrics and finishes; and then approve the timeline. For commercial clients seeking upholstery, the team can coordinate with designers and contractors to meet lead-times and contract requirements.
