Sofa covers

I would like to get new covers for my cream sofa's or have them reupholstered. Doe anyone know of anywhere reasonable?
I would prefer to get them covered as opposed to buying new as they are only 2 years old and I just can't justify the landfill.
They are a bit toddler grubby...
Thanks!

I can't help with your query but are they washable? I have been researching washing mine and it seems like it should be quite easy, even in cases where it says non-washable - certainly if the alternative is landfill I'd say worth giving a go.

If they are not ripped or torn I would hire a rug doctor type cleaneer on a nice day and have a go with the attachment. Done our sofa a couple of times and it came up lovely.

It would be worth the money before you look at new covers reupholstery.

Thanks for the replies, I popped the cushion covers in the washing machine but they faded (even though they are cream!). I am considering getting a vax so see if I can get the arms and backs the same colour....
