If the fabric you are interested in can be used for upholstery we would recommend you get in touch to discuss your order further. The majority of fabrics are supplied non-FR Treated as standard, please contact our sales team if you require the fabric to be supplied FR Treated for domestic or contract upholstery use.

Please note; the majority of fabrics on our website are priced for non-FR Treated stock. There may be an additional charge if the fabric requires further treatment.

Q. Can you tell me how much wallpaper I need to order?

Q. Can you tell me how much fabric I need to order?

Q. The product I want has a Half Drop Pattern Repeat, what does this mean?

A.  If the fabric or wallpaper has a half drop pattern repeat this means the design will appear to run diagonally across the width. When making curtains or blinds, you will need to consider that when calculating the quantity required. We would recommend you get a sample of the product first and do some online research if you have not used a half drop pattern before. 

Q. The product I have received is different to what I ordered, what can I do?

A.  We provide the product details (including vertical pattern repeat and useable width) as per the Brand's information.

We are more than happy to investigate any discrepancies further and ask that you please get in touch as soon as possible via telephone or email with your order details.

Q. Will my curtains be pattern matched across the fabric?

A. Yes, Curtains/ Blinds will always be pattern matched.  When ordering 2 or more items in the same fabric with the same drop, they will be pattern matched to each other.

Fabric is naturally a malleable product and we therefore cannot guarantee the design will run straight across. If you have any queries please do get in touch before placing your order.
