Thinking of giving your suite a new lease of life? We’ve broken down our our range of lovingly crafted options — designed with both you and the planet in mind.

 

Sofa Covers: Eco style with easy care
Looking for a planet-friendly solution that’s as practical as it is stylish? Say hello to our made-to-measure, machine washable sofa covers.

We’ve been lovingly crafting bespoke sofa covers for over 60 years—helping to give millions of sofas a second chance (and quite often a third, fourth, or even fifth!). With over 800 beautiful fabrics to choose from, every cover is expertly measured and handmade right here in the UK. Pair your new cover with our comfy cushion infills, and you’ll have your furniture feeling showroom-fresh in no time. Every single cover is tailor-made to fit your suite perfectly, and comes with a 5-year quality guarantee for extra peace of mind.

 

The art of reupholstery
There’s something special about the furniture that’s been with you through it all — the Sunday naps, storytimes, and quiet cups of tea. Reupholstery helps you hold onto those memories while restoring beauty and comfort from the inside out. A favourite among sustainable homemakers, reupholstery is more than just a makeover. It’s a thoughtful way to preserve what you love while caring for the planet. Your furniture is carefully stripped back to its frame, then assessed and rebuilt with renewed support and comfort. Finally, your chosen fabric brings it all together — refreshed and ready for many more years to come.

At Plumbs, we’re proud to champion this time-honoured craft. With skilled makers, decades of experience, and our own apprenticeship scheme, we’re keeping reupholstery alive for a more sustainable future.

 

A few facts for the eco conscious
340,702 tonnes of unloved sofas are sent to UK landfill each year
83% of perfectly good sofas go to waste instead of being revived
35,715 plastic straws worth of CO2 emissions go into the production of a new sofa.
Every 24 reused sofas could save over 1.5 tonnes of CO2 emissions – that’s like flying over 2000 miles!
