Upholsterers & Trimmers
The companies listed on this page repair and replace fabric and leather upholstery, carpets and door panels. Trimmers and upholsters tend to be small businesses working our of workshops who deal mostly with the trade, therefore don't have web sites, so we have listed telephone numbers, but don't be put off if there is no address, this usually means that 'craftsman' works from home and visits are by appointment only.
Important Note - This page contains links to companies that we feel may be of use to our customers and patrons of this website. However, unless noted, we have not ourselves used these companies or received feedback from our customers about their reliability or standard of work. For companies that are recommended, see Our Directory We welcome feedback about any listed companies.

Clean Image have known Dave 13 or more years. We have seen much of his work through the years and he deserves the good reputation he has throughout the motor trade in South East. He is no-nonsense to the point of being rough and ready, but he does a superb job and his reputation as the best in the business is well deserved. He insists on using quality materials and doing the work properly, there are no half measures with Dave Wilks.

Cooper Car Trimmers
This Kent based car trimmers has been recommended to us by one of
our customers, who is having them work on the leather seats in his
classic Mercedes (we hope to show you the photos in the near future).
Cooper's have over 30 years experience in car trimming and they list
hoods and convertibles as one of their specialties - which makes
them worthy of mention in any address book.
And of course, they also do the usual magic you
would expect from a car trimmers such as custome re-trims and re-upholstering
vintage cars in leather. Their
Gallery is well worth a look.
