19 April 2024 at 3 PMI was very impressed with Stephen from our first conversation and I was confident he would do a first class job. Stephen called to collect the furniture and we discussed suitable materials. He took the time to explain everything to me that he wanted to do to bring my furniture back to its best and he left me the samples so I could take the time to be sure of my choice. I could not be more pleased with the finished job. 20 year old furniture has been brought back to life as new and it looks immaculate. I cannot praise Stephen enough for his craftmanship and attention to detail and I would highly recommend him. Definitely 5*.

5 January 2024 at 12 PMI was recommended to Stephen by my cousin Mrs Carole Rafter, who has had her suite recovered. She is very pleased (5* pleased). I contacted Stephen and we made an appointment.
I needed professional advice. I have two very old 25 years old chairs. Which I was going to replace. Because I was finded it difficult to find chairs the right size to fit the space, and because I have two Original Cintique chairs I was recommended to have them recovered, Stephen was recommended. He was very professional. He brought with him types of materials and patterns, he explained every thing from stripping back the chairs to rebuilding them. We agreed on patterns and a price and made a date for them to be picked up. He came on this date and with chairs being sent for the frames to be French Polished, they were returned to me within three weeks.
I am very, very pleased (5* pleased). I am so happy to see my old friends back home looking so smart in there new coats bringing my room back to its old friendly self. Thank you Stephen.

3 January 2024 at 6 PMWhat can I say? I am absolutely over the moon. My new suite is GORGEOUS!
Stephen was so attentive ,explained all that would be involved ,invited us to visit his studio which we did and liked him straight away.
I can’t praise him enough, he kept me informed at each stage even sending me photos of progress .
The finished suite looks fabulous and it’s nearly 20 years old. I have no hesitation in recommending Stephen he is a genius and truly loves his talent. His attention to detail is impeccable.
Thank you again Stephen

3 December 2023 at 7 PMStephen Hibbert was recommended to me by my sister . He had re-upholstered her sofas and I knew I would ask Stephen to do the same for me when I moved into my new home. He called when he said he would, he gave me all the required information, advice and guidance I needed. He advised me on the best material to use for the job and gave me timeframes for the work to be done . The sofa came back to me and it was unrecognisable to the one I had given to him a few weeks earlier. The quality of Stephen’s work was unbelievable, there was nothing at all I could fault about what he done for me .It was exactly what I wanted and he took the time out to make sure he got the right result for me .The sofa looked like a totally brand new one. It is perfect ! I would highly recommend Stephen and have already done so to a few family members . He was amazing ! Thanks so much Stephen !

4 October 2023 at 12 PMStephen restored my very worn out chaise lounge and I am very pleased with the result. It looks better than I imagined and done to an extremely good standard
MR ROBERT MCPARTLAND
18 February 2023 at 11 AMWe spoke with Stephen about the potential to refurbish our own furniture.
Having been advised of what was required, what he would do and the cost, we gave him the job.
The end result we received has provided us with a finish that goes, even beyond what we possibly expected. The full suite of furniture he has totally restored inside and out. It looks brand new (but is 42 years old). Materials used are of the highest quality….inside and out (even the springs, webbing and aprons!). His workmanship is of that high a quality, I enquired as to whether he would be interested in working in conjunction with a major, national retailer.
I genuinely couldn’t recommend him enough.
From the first conversation to receiving the final pieces of furniture back was top notch. We were kept up-to-date with calls and photos of progress throughout, and received a completely brand-new looking leather suite, complete with full recolouring and ‘antiquing’ the leather as it was originally.
We sincerely, recommend Stephen Hibbert /Lakeside Uphostery for any re-upholstery and/or refurbishment work.
