Refurbishment Of Wall Acoustic Panels
If you have wall panels fitted at high level or any other level that require refurbishment we are pleased to assist you in doing do. We have undertaken large projects in universities, cinemas and arenas across the UK. This has involved removal of the current panels by us or a building contractor with the use of mobile access platforms or scaffolding, refurbishment of the panels with new fabrics generally from Camira Fabrics along with replacement foams if required and then finally installation back into situ. You will see below examples of this exercise.
Custom Fabric Wall Panels
At South West Upholstery, we are able to produce custom made fabric wall panels to any shape or size, for any purpose. We can cut the board, supply foam cut to the size of any thickness and density, and upholster in any material from cloth, leather or vinyl. We really can take care of all your fabric wall panel needs! If you require the foam on your fabric wall panels to have acoustic properties for sound absorption, this is something we regularly specialize in and we can even make these to order.
Adding a design to your fabric wall panel is something we can easily do, from Chesterfield deep buttoning, twin needle stitching, or fluting. Don’t believe us? See below examples of just what we can do to fabric wall panels. If you have a design in mind for an upcoming project we would love to hear from you.
What Our Clients Say About Us...
EXCELLENT Based on 206 reviews Posted on lindsay loaderTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Highly recommend southwest upholstery! The lady in reception (Leanne I think), responds very promptly to any query and the chair is unrecognisable from the dog chewed and completely flat one I left them with. Only problem now is its too perfect to sit on...Posted on A FTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had spoken with other upholsters and quite frankly not only were we unimpressed, we began to worry if we would find anyone who could help us reupholster our two much loved large sofas and armchair. Then we came across a TV interview on South West Upholstery and their approach to sustainability. We went along to see their set up and what they had to offer. From that very first visit to selecting the fabrics with their guidance, placing our order, collection of the items and then receiving our newly upholstered furniture back, we received a first class professional service throughout. Without exception, everyone we have met or spoken with at SWU have gone above and beyond in helping us get a fantastic outcome to our treasured sofas and armchair. We are so pleased with the work SWU did for us.Posted on mel cretonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

We are looking for a way to upcycle our old office furniture, South West Upholstery have provided a very sustainable answer. Great quality work and very friendly service, thank you.Posted on Ann RayterTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A helpful and friendly service from the first phone contact to final delivery of 6 upholstered kitchen chairs. Having a local service offering a collection and delivery service was ideal. The van drivers were friendly and did all the carrying of heavy oak kitchen chairs. The estimated time for completion of the project was around 30 days but we were pleasantly surprised to receive a phone call a week later that the chairs were ready. The finished project was excellent- we are very pleased with the quality of the work. We highly recommend this company and will return to them if we have other projects to complete.Posted on Nick EdgellTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

SWU under promised and over delivered. A fab service. From start to finish this has been a stress free experience. Top marks to the staff and quality of materials as well as workmanship.Posted on JaneTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Can't rate this service highly enough - excellent from start to finish. My online enquiry was picked up the same day (weekend), and I was offered support and advice on measuring my leather sofa cushions. A very competitive quote arrived shortly after. The online payment process was easy and secure, and I parcelled up my empty covers and got them posted straight off. Receipt of my covers was acknowledged personally and rapidly, and a clear timeframe for completion and delivery was given upfront. Delivery of the finished articles was within the agreed timeframe which was fab, recognising there were several bank holiday days to account for. I am really, really happy with my sofa cushions. They have given my furniture a new lease of life and will be good for many years to come. Leanne was amazing from start to finish, and the delivery guys could not have been more helpful. A great service that I would highly recommend to anyone.
Bristol University
We were tasked to remove, refurbish and refit acoustic wall panels in large lecture halls at the University to modernize the panels using a grey fabric. Our client was really pleased with the transformation and the new modern look.
SmithBrewer
One of our larger projects has been for SmithBrewer shopfitters. Here we supplied large upholstered wall panels, which sit inside a large metal frame and are then mounted on the wall. These were each different in design with some being deep buttoned and others twin stitched. We have completed projects for SmithBrewer to be installed in Flannels luxury designer fashion stores all over the UK, including Glasgow, Middlesbrough, Mansfield, Sheffield and the Isle of Man.

FAQs
What are upholstered panels used for?
Upholstered panels are ideal for adding texture, comfort, and acoustic control to walls, headboards, and commercial interiors. They’re commonly used in offices, restaurants, hotels, and homes to create a soft, stylish finish.
