"Super happy with the work Master Upholstery Experts has done to our Italian three seater sofa. They matched the original colour perfectly as well as its beautiful pattern and seams. They even salvaged some of the original fabric for the cushions and the back. Excellent timeframes. An amazing job and service through and through. Highly recommended!"
