Reupholstering a lounger, altering leather sofa cushions, adding seat to wooden chair,

Keith's work is highly skilled and tasteful. He transformed a frumpy leather sofa with unwieldy cushions into a sleek modern design, using his own dependable judgment to finesse our ideas. His prices are reasonable and he's a delight to deal with.

Having a 11ft by 7ft 4 piece sectional sofa restored and reupholstered

We needed to have our 25 year old family hand me down sofa brought back to life, Keith added new padding, fixed the brackets and recovered it in a fantastic fabric.

He was very professional and informed about his craft, the service was quick and efficient.

The finished product was top notch...and the family wanted it back once they'd seen the end result!

Repair leather sofa

My son brought home a sofa covered in teal leather that had been given away at the office, because there were a few rips when the pillows were attached to the back. This would make a nice addition to our cottage, if only the rips could be fixed.

My wife found a swatch of matching leather at one of the downtown fabric stores. Armed with this we went to see Keith Sheardown, who has done some wonderful work for us in the past.

We were amazed at the quality of his repair work and the low cost. He is a true craftsman who takes pride in his work and in customer satisfaction.

The sofa looks great at the cottage, since the repaired rips have been tasetfully camaflouged and strengthened not to rip again.

Our next commission for Keith is to make replacement cushions for our sailboat.

Furniture Re-upholster

Over 30 years ago, we saw an add in the Toronto Star for Upper Canada Upholstery. My parents were moving into a condo and needed several pieces of furniture re-upholstered. Keith came out and gave us a price on the work. We accepted his price and he did the work. An exceptional job and we were delighted! He was a true craftsman! Last year Carole and I purchased a condo in Don Mills. We needed 2 chairs re-upholstered and we looked in the Toronto Star, remembering our positive experience in the mid 1970's. To our surprise there was an add for Upper Canada Upholstery!!!! We called the number and Keith came to our condo and gave us a price which we accepted with delight. The same craftsman did the same high quality work. Over the past year we have had him do work on 2 other pieces of furniture. Always the same high quality work and done on time. A true craftsman of the European school! If you need furniture re-upholstered you will not be disappointed if you use the services of Upper Canada!

Cool old loveseat looks like new!

This is not the first review I've written about Upper Canada Upholstery, but Keith's work is so exceptional that his firm is worthy of more than one positive review...and this latest job was a few months away from the first time I used Keith's services.

In the last 2 months, I've moved from Scarborough to our cottage near Haliburton. But, just prior to the move, I was smart enough to have one more job done by Upper Canada Upholstery...the loveseat that Keith restored (including the padding and other "guts") is now a focal point of our living room up north. Our "cottage" friends, most of whom had never seen our city furniture, seem to naturally gravitate to this cool early-70's, looking-like-new, very comfortable loveseat. They all, to a person, have commented on how gorgeous it is.

Even though I'm now living 180 km away, I'll still travel to Upper Canada in Scarborough for any future re-upholstery jobs.

Reupholstering Dining Chairs

Keith was extremely patient when it took some time for me to chose the perfect fabric from his books. The quality of his work was great, and he was extremely fast. I will definitely use him again.

Old chairs given new life!!

I discovered Upper Canada Upholstery via the HomeStars website. I wish I'd known about Keith years ago!

He took two old chairs...one was an antique, the other just "vintage" (but a favorite)...and made them look better than new. I now get to enjoy them for many years to come, and I'm looking around my house trying to figure out what else I can ask Keith to restore.

The obvious pride in his work and attention to detail are rare treasures these days. Thank you, Keith...I've passed quite a few of your business cards out to friends and family.

Dining Chair Covers/Swivel Rockers

It was love at first sight on first meeting although Keith went to wrong address, neighbour's instead of ours; took "6" for a "9." Asked several questions, received specific and truthful answers and guidance. Professional, prompt, courteous, composed, honest, friendly, patient, and properly attired.
