New sofa stuck at the door? Moving home, but your old sofa will not come out? We provide specialist sofa dismantling and moving in Sussex, helping bulky furniture pass safely through narrow doorways, hallways, staircases and lifts. Send us photographs of the sofa and the complete access route. We will assess the problem, explain what is possible and provide a quote before you book.
Struggling to get furniture into your home? We can help. We are a fully insured, family run team of time served upholsterers with over 40 years of experience.
When a sofa is larger than the available route, more lifting will not solve the problem. It may need to be carefully dismantled, moved through the restricted area in sections and rebuilt inside the room.
We Can Help With:
Sofas that will not pass through the front door
Failed furniture deliveries
Sofas stuck on stairs or landings
Tight turns and narrow communal entrances
Small apartment lifts
Corner sofas, sofa beds and recliners
Armchairs and other upholstered seating
Furniture entering or leaving an upper-floor flat
Sofas being removed during a house move
Large beds and upholstered headboards
The correct method depends on the furniture’s frame, upholstery and mechanism. We assess every item before confirming that dismantling is suitable.
Please fill in the fields below and upload an image of the front and back of the piece of furniture.

How Our Service Works
Before booking, we review photographs of the furniture and the complete access route. This allows us to understand where the problem is and what work is likely to be required.
If the item is suitable, we will:
Confirm the service and price before the appointment.
Protect the working area.
Dismantle only what is necessary.
Move each section through the restricted access.
Reassemble the furniture in its intended position.
We will also tell you if dismantling is not the right solution. With more than 20 years of experience, our family-run team understands how upholstered furniture is constructed. We complete the specialist work ourselves rather than passing it to third-party contractors.
Great service, nice guys and a decent price. Did our 3 seater that wouldn't fit down the corridor for £180. Looks like new after they were finished and only took them a couple of hours to complete. Highly recommend (the only other guys in London that do this quoted £330 for the same job!)
Mr Wiggins London
I ordered a sofa and because of a narrow door way I was worried it wasn't going to fit. I contacted Furni-tech for a quote and got a reply straight away. The guys there were very helpful and replied to all my questions in the run up to receiving my sofa. The good news is the sofa managed to fit with some very tight squeezing but knowing that Furni-tech would have been able to get it in dismantled was a a great safety net.
Mr Barnes Dover
Excellent service for a reasonable price. They carefully disassembled my sofa and moved it into my living room.
Miss Perkins - Addlestone
Lewis and Pete were recommended to us by Furniture Village after we purchased a ridiculously large upholstered bed that was never in a million years going to fit round our narrow staircase. They squeezed us into their busy schedule as we were now sleeping on the floor. They turned up when they said they would, very polite, professional with a can do attitude. The bed looks amazing and you'd never know the headboard had been dismantled. Highly recommend.
Mr Rowley
Great company, Good service, would definitely recommend.

Help After a Failed Sofa Delivery
If a delivery team cannot get your sofa into the room, avoid forcing it through or removing structural parts without knowing how it was made. Ask the team to leave it somewhere secure if possible. Photograph:
The front, back, sides and underside of the sofa
The product label, if available
The place where the delivery failed
The complete route into the room
Any stairs, landings, corridors or lifts
Send the photographs with your postcode and floor level. We will assess whether dismantling is practical and discuss availability. Same-day attendance may be possible, but it cannot be guaranteed.
A sofa that entered a property years ago may no longer come out in one piece. A porch may have been added, the staircase may have changed or the property may simply have been empty when the sofa arrived. Where arranged, we can dismantle the sofa at the collection address, move it through the restricted route and rebuild it at the destination. For a moving quote, send us:
Many upholstered sofas can be dismantled, although suitability depends on the frame, upholstery and mechanism. Send photographs from every side so we can assess it.
The purpose of professional dismantling is to move and securely rebuild the furniture. The method depends on its construction and existing condition, which we assess before booking.
Removing the wrong fixing or cutting into the frame can damage the structure, upholstery or mechanism. If you want to continue using the sofa, contact us before attempting structural dismantling.
Often, yes, provided there is enough room to work safely. Stop forcing it and send photographs showing its position and the surrounding space.
Yes, we assess corner sofas, recliners, sofa beds, armchairs and standard sofas. Clear photographs are required because their frames and mechanisms differ.
Yes. We dismantle and reassemble suitable beds and upholstered headboards that will not pass through stairs, landings or bedroom doors.
The price depends on the furniture, access, work required and whether it is staying at the property or moving elsewhere. Send photographs and the relevant postcodes for an accurate quote.
We cover many towns and villages throughout Brighton and Hove, East Sussex and West Sussex. Send your postcode and we will confirm availability.

You do not need professional photographs. Stand far enough back to show the obstruction and the available turning space. Send us photographs of the furniture, entrance, hallway, stairs, landing, lift and destination doorway. Include your postcode, floor level and required date. Before returning a sofa that does not fit, let us assess whether specialist dismantling could solve the problem.
