We understand that sometimes time-treasured pieces can lose their glow but not their sentiment. Here at the The Hackney Draper we're proud to say that we understand this completely. Over the years, we have built our reputation on high standards and an even higher quality of service, from the initial consultation to using the highest quality materials and workmanship.
We upholster all manner of pre-loved items as well as fabricating new simple pieces from scratch, such as shaped headboards. We offer a collection and delivery service for items in London and our lead time is usually approximately 6 weeks.
It’s worth bearing in mind that to re-cover a sofa or armchair can often cost more than buying a piece of a similar size new, so upholstery is often an investment and not a cost-saving alternative. To give you an idea of indicative costs using an upholstery grade fabric at £50 p/m:
2 seater sofa - £1,700
3 seater sofa - £2,000
Armchair - £1,200
Mid-Century Chair - £650
Piano or small stool - £160
*All costs include vat
Obviously each project will be quoted individually and the above costs include re-covering only and exclude new springs/pads.
Bespoke Upholstery
Bench Cushions
Our workshop can make all variety of bench cushions. Normally filled with foam and wrapped in wadding, we can also offer other fillings, quilt stitching or piping. Often the shape for the cushion is not straightforward, in which case we offer a templating service, where we come out to take detailed measurements and make a template for the workshop.
To receive an estimate, please submit your requirements.
Scatter Cushions
We can make bespoke scatter cushions to any size and shape. Perhaps you would like cushions to match your curtains, or you have a vintage fabric that you would like to use. The workshop are happy to create whatever you have in mind, whether it be contrasting piping, fringing or tassels.
To give you an idea of our prices, the cost of a bespoke scatter cushion size but excluding fabric will cost:
40cm x 40cm with a duck feather pad = £54 inc vat + fabric cost
60cm x 40cm with duck feather pad = £60 inc vat + fabric cost
