It would be impossible to get it upstairs internally... and even upholsters near by said they wouldn't take it apart for us. I found sofaassist.com on a Google Search and contacted Frank immediately. I sent over some pics of the sofa and windows from both properties along with measurements. Frank responded to me with a quote and even gave us a plan B quote if the sofa indeed had to be taken apart. We were quite excited to know we'd have our sofa in our new flat! On the day Frank and his assistant completed everything within an hour... just amazing! Frank is so friendly and professional. So easy to work with! Would definitely recommend getting in touch if you need to get a sofa into your flat!

Sofa Assist is worth every penny and you couldn't ask for a nicer, more patient person than Frank (who must see many like me in a stressful state!).

I do recommend Dominic's work and he has some beautiful pieces in Highbury waiting to find a new home.

All manner of stuff - from 50s furniture to retro Oxo mugs via old birthday cards - there's loads of fun stuff in here. Fantastic place to have a dig around to see what you can find. I bought a mug (naturally - I do this in pretty much any shop you can find a mug - never enough mugs). Lovely.

They absolutely won at putting on Halloween displays this year - with a row of hollowed out root veg (notably not pumpkins) lit by a string of fairylights. Awesome.
