About us

It started in a shed.

South West Upholstery started in a garden shed and grew into one Bristol workshop: three generations of the same family, recovering furniture people want to keep and making new contract pieces for hospitality, design and architecture.

The way of working hasn’t changed since.

Everything made in one place.

The Making & Remaking

Made in Bristol

From timber frame to final stitch, our upholstery, banquettes and bespoke pieces are made and finished in our Bristol workshop.

Traditional upholstery skills sit alongside modern manufacturing, giving us control over quality at every stage. Our team builds, upholsters and finishes each piece with the same focus on durability, comfort and detail, whether it’s a one-off bespoke piece or a full commercial installation.

Now the whole process is in-house, we can respond quickly, resolve details as we go and make furniture that is designed to be used, repaired and kept for years to come.
