“Now stays open.”
Our ottoman gas lifters were finished. Richard replaced both struts and now the lid stays up perfectly. Good price, friendly service.
Verified, NG10 • Checkatrade
“Broken slats fixed.”
Our divan base had three broken slats. Richard replaced them all in a few hours. No more mattress sagging in the middle.
Mr. & Mrs. T., Loughborough
“Re-tufted perfectly.”
Our old divan base had lost the buttons and the padding was flat. Richard re-tufted it and it looks better than new.
