Furniture Reupholstery

Services & Process

Custom upholstery goes beyond basic fabric replacement. It involves working closely with customers to select the right material, match patterns at seams, and achieve specific design outcomes that off-the-shelf furniture simply can't deliver. Bille Custom Upholstery handles residential pieces including sofas, armchairs, ottomans, headboards, and dining seating. Cushion replacement and foam upgrades are common add-ons that improve both comfort and appearance. For interior designers working with clients, a custom upholstery shop provides the kind of finished result that makes a room feel intentional and complete.

Service Area

Bille Custom Upholstery serves Minneapolis and surrounding neighborhoods throughout Hennepin County. Customers from Edina, St. Louis Park, Richfield, and other south Minneapolis suburbs frequently work with the shop on residential and design projects.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does 'custom' upholstery actually mean compared to standard reupholstery?
Standard reupholstery swaps out old fabric for new in a similar style. Custom work involves tailoring every detail, including fabric choice, stitch pattern, button placement, and trim, to a specific design vision rather than a standard template.
Can upholstery shops work with interior designers directly?
Yes, many custom upholstery shops regularly collaborate with interior designers on client projects. They can work from design specifications, source fabrics from trade suppliers, and meet deadlines tied to broader renovation timelines.
How do I find a fabric that works with my existing room decor?
Bringing photos of your room and any existing fabric samples helps the shop guide you toward complementary choices. Many shops carry fabric swatches from multiple suppliers, giving you a wide range of textures, colors, and patterns to compare.
Can you reupholster a headboard or bed frame?
Yes, upholstered headboards are a common project for furniture upholstery shops. They can work with existing headboard frames or help you build out a new design with fabric and foam padding.
How do I care for newly upholstered furniture?
Care depends on the fabric type. Most upholstery fabrics benefit from regular vacuuming, prompt spot cleaning, and keeping pieces out of direct sunlight to prevent fading. The shop can give you specific care instructions based on what material was used.
Can you match fabric on a piece that's part of a set?
Matching fabric across a set is possible if the material is still available from the supplier or if you have enough remaining yardage. The shop will let you know during the estimate whether an exact match is achievable or if a close alternative is the better option.
