Our company is a Furniture Manufacturing and Recovering business based in Invercargill, Southland and is owned by Lyall and Raewyn Pownceby. In 1985 after completion of an Apprenticeship in Furniture Upholstery and gaining Advanced Trade Certificate, Lyall set forth in his business venture to form Lyall's Upholstery. It began as a one man business in a small two roomed old house. Over the past 17 years it has out grown three buildings before finding our present, ideally suited location with a showroom and factory at 438 Dee Street, Invercargill. We are on the corner of Fulton and Dee Streets and have fourteen off street car parks for our clients use. During this development our staff level has increased to five full time and two part time. After 22 years in the furniture industry, Lyall has outstanding knowledge of how furniture should be built and to back this, all workmanship whether on a Restoration Project or a New Lounge uite, we stand behind with our 5 Year Warranty. Commercial work is now a large part of our working year creating those pieces just a little bit different. Cafes seem to be springing up all over the place and we have been fortunate to have been involved with many of these. Recovering and repairs are still a very busy part of what we do, although our aim is to extend our manufacturing side and work more with Architects, Motels Hotels, Cafes and of course the Private Person wanting to take advantage of our Design and Build ability. The free quotes and personal service with excellent workmanship, good quality lounge suites at very competitive prices, and a wide range of designs and fabrics to choose from is what we are well known for.
