We have been working on this project since November 2024 and it is scheduled for completion towards the end of 2026.
When we first met with our client they had some plans approved that unfortunately didn't work for the way they wanted to use the property, with a proposed extension that didn't give them the extra space they wanted. So, we stepped in to completely redesign the extension and the existing parts of the house. Working with our partner architect Chris Green from Simple Stories Architecture, we completely redesigned the extension and link between the old and new, providing far more usable space for a similar sized footprint. A new planning application was lodged and it has recently been approved.
As our clients are busy professionals, we are project managing the build, working with Turner Timber of Hull to build the extension as a timber framed pre-fab off-site, which will be craned onto site in panels. That is currently scheduled for August/September 2025, so watch this space for updates.
For now here are some 3D visuals of our proposed designs for some key rooms.
Terms & Conditions (Agreement / Contract) - Soft Furnishings, Fabrics and the like... all in addition to the above...
This agreement is made between us/we (Revival by Design Ltd) and you (the client) and forms the basis of the contract between us.
Our Products
Whilst every effort will be made to ensure that goods provided by us for your project match samples and/or descriptions provided, there may be variations or changes in colour, size, texture, pattern, look and feel of materials that are brought about by the manufacturer and are outside of our control. Goods may not be rejected on the basis of these.
Sizes and dimensions provided for items (whether by us or by our suppliers) are indicative only and may vary within industry standards and tolerances. Goods may not be rejected on the basis of these variances.
Where measurements are provided by you, we will make goods to these measurements, and we accept no liability if these are incorrect or unsuitable in any way.
Fabrics
Most fabrics are batch dyed and therefore each batch can vary slightly in shade. Due to colour variations between product batches, samples provided to you may vary slightly to the slightly to the fabric used in the project. Due to the print design of some pattern fabrics it may be that the sample provided does not show the full range of colours or pattern design.
All fabrics will fade over time. To reduce natural fading, curtains should always be lined and, if possible, drawn back from the windows during daylight hours. Leading edges will always tend to fade sooner as they receive more light. Upholstery fabrics should be kept out of direct sunlight – avoid positioning furniture where excessive moisture, sunlight or heat could cause an adverse effect. No claims will be accepted for fading.
We do not recommend any after purchase fabric treatments be applied to fabrics nor do we accept responsibility for change in performance, appearance nor damage or defect to fabrics treated after purchase.
Please bear in mind that fabrics do wear in use and change their appearance over time, this is natural and to be expected: pile fabrics such as velvets, chenille and textured weaves may flatten and show a degree of optical shading when used for upholstery – this is a characteristic of such fabrics and not detrimental to their durability. Flat weaves may pill or bobble to a degree.
Where fabrics are chosen by you that we do not ordinarily stock, we are happy to make up your furnishings in these fabrics, however we do not vouch for the quality, suitability nor durability of these fabrics and do not accept any liability should the fabrics not live up to expectations in these or similar regard.
Curtains, Blinds & Upholstery
Made to measure and bespoke items are made for you and to your precise requirements – they are not then suitable for use by anyone else, and as such cannot be returned or cancelled. Upon acceptance of our quote/pricing/budget and the like, you are agreeing to this, so please be sure that you are happy with the goods you have selected.
We will make and hang/install curtains and blinds to the best of our ability and within industry tolerances, in terms of level, height, gaps to the floor/wall/ceiling and the like. With the best will in the world nothing is perfect; your floors/walls/ceilings etc are unlikely to be exactly level, fabrics are soft, will stretch a little here and there, and are never 100% square and perfect, which all adds up to the very real possibility that one side of a curtain or blind will be a few millimetres shorter or longer than the other side. This is standard in the industry and our products will always be within standard industry tolerances.
Fabrics absorb moisture and this can result in stretching or shrinking. It is reasonable to expect as much as a 3% change in any curtain length. For instance, a 2.5m curtain length may move up to 8cm up or down under different conditions. Heavier fabrics, looser weaves, and those with thicker yarns of natural fibres will react to changing humidity.
Where curtains and/or blinds are being installed to existing tracks, poles, rails or the like, these could be out of level/square etc – we will endeavour to install goods to fit these to the best of our ability and we accept no liability if the installed goods are not a suitable fit because of these issues.
When blinds are installed within a reveal, we take measurements at both sides and in the middle of the reveal, both the height and the width, and use the smallest of these as the basis of the size of your blind. We then deduct approx. 1cm from the width, and your blinds are made to these adjusted dimensions. We do this to make sure that your blinds move up and down uninhibited and don’t rub on your walls. This will mean though that blinds are never installed to the full width of a reveal and as such light will always be visible around the blind.
Curtains are usually hung underneath a pole or track – this ensures that pleats can form properly because the remaining fabric between pleats can be “pushed back” behind the track or pole. We can hang curtains against a track rather than under it, if for example you don’t want to be able to see the track when the curtains are closed, however please be aware that in doing so the fabric between pleats will have nowhere to go and will “fall forwards”, meaning you may see some of the lining behind and the curtains won’t look quite as tidy.
When we hang curtains we generally “dress” them (we manipulate the fabric into its pleats so that the curtains hang better) and we hold them in place with fabric bands or string. We recommend that the curtains are left in these bands for around 2 weeks, to set the pleats and give the fabric a chance to “remember” it has become a pair of curtains. Once the bands are removed the pleats should have set – every fabric is different though and the results vary accordingly. You may need to re-dress your curtains from time to time.
We assume that you have considered the suitability of items ordered, in regards colour, dimensions, sizes and the like. Further that items supplied by us will fit your space and will fit through your doorways and corridors to enable them to be sited as required in your property. We accept no responsibility should this not be the case, for example if a sofa or chair does not fit through your doorways, and as such items cannot be cancelled or returned on that basis.
When producing any bespoke and/or made to measure items generally, we may be working to designs produced by us, or by you, or we may be working to “copy” a design that you have seen elsewhere – in all cases we will produce your item(s) to the best of our ability and it will be the closest reproduction that we can achieve. That being said it is unlikely to be a 100% exact reproduction of the design intent – bespoke items are exactly that, they are bespoke and one of a kind. Items cannot be cancelled or returned on the basis that they are not an exact reproduction of a design.
Variations in size, colour and finish may occur in any product because of the handmade nature of the processes used to produce them.
Cleaning & Care
For best results we recommend all fabrics should be dry cleaned by a specialist in the cleaning of upholstery and curtain fabrics. Spot cleaning and the use of proprietary products is not recommended and could cause damage to the fabric for. Regular vacuuming and turning of cushions can prolong the life of covers and reduces the need for cleaning.
We recommend that upholstery and curtains/blinds be cleaned at the same time. This will ensure the colour balance remains consistent.
Cancellation & Refunds
Once we start the work (as detailed in our quote/budget/proposal) we cannot offer any refund of monies paid. We will start the work as soon as we receive your payment.
Customised, bespoke, made to measure, made to order and specially produced items cannot generally be cancelled or returned.
For any refunds that we do provide (at our absolute discretion), we will charge, deduct or offset, a cancellation fee of 50% of the value of the items cancelled, plus any applicable delivery costs.
Payments and Payment Terms (generally, unless otherwise stated)
-
Non-refundable Deposit - 50% of the total budget/quote value
-
Further payment a minimum of 6 weeks prior to the planned delivery/install date – a further 40% of the total budget/quote value

All goods remain our property until paid for in full. Goods may not be rejected for any reason other than that they are defective.
By making payment to us you are accepting these terms and conditions, as well as the specification of the order listed on the budget/quote and/or within any scope or schedule(s) provided.
Indicated timeframes given by us for supply and/or install of items is taken from the date that payment is received by us for such items.
Where payments are late, we reserve the right to charge interest at 8% above bank of England base rate, and to stop all work on the item/project and/or relevant stage or phase, until payment is received in full.
