We're an old-school sofa shop. The phone is genuinely the fastest way to get hold of us, especially if you're asking about a specific sofa, the best price on something, or whether we can deliver this week. Email's fine for anything that needs photos or detail. Either way, you'll be dealing with the same family who's been running the place since 1983.
If you've seen a specific sofa on the site or in our fresh stock gallery that you're after, jot down the page or photo reference before you ring. Makes it quicker for us to find it on the warehouse floor and give you the right price.

If you're getting in touch about a specific sofa or job, a few details up front speed things up massively. None of this is mandatory, but the more you tell us the faster we can come back with something useful.
