We had an old sofa and armchair reupholstered by Muthana and were very pleased with how they turned out. The quality of the work was excellent and the job was completed surprisingly quickly. I would use Kennington Upholstery again.

I had a Victorian rocking chair that I wanted to get updated to look a bit more modern. As a family piece I was really cautious that I wanted it to be looked after well.
Muthana did an amazing job, he was so responsive on helping me pick the right fabric and ordering it from one of his suppliers. Everything went smoothly with pick up and collection and the chair came back looking AMAZING!

I had 4 eight years old chairs reupholstered by Muthana(the shop). From the time the chairs were picked up to the time they got returned, it was less than 2 weeks time. The quality of the work was excellent. The service was professional and I am so happy to have the chairs for some more years -:)
