Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my furniture is worth reupholstering?
If the frame is solid wood and structurally sound, reupholstery almost always makes financial sense. Pieces with sentimental value, antique furniture, or well-built older sofas are especially good candidates since they're often built better than many new options on the market today.
Can I bring in my own fabric?
Many upholstery shops will work with customer-supplied fabric, but it's worth confirming ahead of time. You'll want to make sure you have enough yardage, since a standard sofa can require 12 to 15 yards depending on the design and pattern matching required.
How long does furniture reupholstery take in Fort Wayne?
Turnaround time depends on the complexity of the piece and the shop's current workload. A simple chair might take a week, while a large sectional or a piece needing frame repair could take two to four weeks.
What types of furniture can be reupholstered?
Most upholstered furniture qualifies, including sofas, loveseats, armchairs, recliners, dining chairs, headboards, and ottomans. Benches, window seats, and even some office chairs can also be reupholstered depending on their construction.
Is reupholstery more cost-effective than buying new furniture?
It often is, especially for quality older pieces. New furniture at comparable quality levels can cost significantly more, and reupholstery lets you keep a frame that may be far more durable than what's available in stores today.
Do upholstery shops in Fort Wayne offer fabric selection help?
Yes, most shops carry fabric samples and can help you choose something that matches your home's style and meets your durability needs. It helps to bring a photo of the room or a fabric swatch from nearby pieces so the shop can make better recommendations.
