A bench that still opens as it should. Repairs and replacement upholstery considered around your boat, with samples, fit and collection agreed personally with Josh.
RIB bench cushions can sit over storage lids or incorporate removable backrests. For a Portsmouth brief, show how the bench opens and how each upholstered part releases. Include the hinges, straps or other relevant attachment details in the photo set.
If you want a fuller cushion, consider the lid movement and neighbouring surfaces first. Upholstery dimensions and edge details should be agreed around the actual bench. Let Josh know whether the boat is available for checks or whether the work will rely on collected originals.

FAST QUOTES & UK-WIDE COURIER
From your first photograph. To a carefully planned return.
We coordinate the accepted work, agreed installation and logistics with clear next steps. Portsmouth enquiries are served through agreed collection and visit arrangements; this is not a local branch or showroom.
01
Photographs first.
Send your Portsmouth postcode, a whole-set photograph, the number of pieces and the change you want. Include preferred dates so the brief starts with your actual plans.
02
Agree the fit.
Josh confirms whether labelled originals, measurements, supplied pattern material or an agreed visit are suitable. Do not discard old pieces or send furniture before that route is agreed.
03
Collection & return.
Same-day UK courier collection can be discussed, subject to the route, booking and availability. Packing, transport costs, manufacture and return dates are agreed separately; same-day collection does not mean same-day manufacture.
BEFORE WE BEGIN
The practical details.
Can thicker RIB cushions affect storage access?
They can change clearances and the way sections meet. Include the storage arrangement in the brief so the proposed profile and finish can be checked before approval.
What should I send for a Portsmouth quote?
Share your postcode, photographs of the complete arrangement and the three details above. Include the piece count, condition and preferred dates. Josh will confirm the scope, material options and pattern or collection route.
Can I keep my existing filling?
Its condition, shape, support and compatibility with the replacement cover need checking. Show the inserts and covers together. Retaining suitable filling or replacing it can be included in the agreed specification.
How do I approve the final fabric?
Explore Spradling, Sunbrella & Agora, then confirm the exact range and physical samples with Josh. Colour, texture, application, availability and the appropriate care guidance form part of the specification before manufacture.
