We purchased 2 new different styles of sofas with matching stools from Be Seated. We also had some reupholstery work undertaken. The product quality for all the work carried out was excellent and to timescale. We have no hesitation in recommending Be Seated and thank Peter for all his hard work.

I have just collected my two Ercol armchairs from Peter. I inherited them, and they were crying out for new upholstery. I am so so pleased with the result. Peter knows his trade inside out, and is so talented, and knowledgeable. He called round to the flat to see the chairs to assess them; I went to the shop and with his help chose a gorgeous wool fabric. He fitted in the job at a time that worked for us. The quality and and attention to detail is outstanding.Honestly, top notch job. I knew it would be - Peter had previously put a new seat on a much loved small cane-backed armchair, which I am also delighted with.

Working with Peter at Be Seated has been an absolute pleasure and a highlight of our home design journey. Peter brought our vision to life by crafting several unique and beautifully upholstered pieces that have added a special touch to our new home. From the very beginning, Peter made sure the entire process was seamless and enjoyable. His attention to detail, paired with his constant and clear communication, made us feel confident that we were in the hands of a true professional. Peter's passion for his craft shines through in every piece he creates; it's clear that he pours his heart into his work. The pieces we received are not just furniture; they are works of art that bring character and warmth to our space. Each item shows Peter’s skill, and they’ve transformed our house into a home that feels both stylish and personal. If you're looking for someone who genuinely cares about the outcome and takes the time to understand your vision, I can't recommend Peter and Be Seated highly enough.

I have no hesitation in recommending Be Seated. Peter has restored a favourite Vicotiran armchair and has exceeded my expectations of bringing a very battered and well-used piece of furniture back to life and made good for use for many years to come. Peter was generous with his time helping me choose an appropriate fabric and arranging for samples to be sent to me. Peter's care, expertise, workmanship and attention to detail are all exceptional. I will certainly use Be Seated for any future upholstery work.

I’d totally recommend Be Seated. We were searching for a new sofa to replace our existing one but couldn’t find one we liked and didn’t want to buy one online without trying it. We went to Peter who has reupholstered it and it looks fabulous. Advice and choice of fabrics is excellent and craftsmanship is too. So happy with our new old sofa.
